ahayzenGirish, me and Victor have commented on your weather-app markdown readme thing :-)00:01
ahayzenballoons, when we do 'needs review' on MPs are you then selecting 'more work needed' for the item in code-in ?00:14
ahayzeni mean 'needs fixing'00:15
mcinitreevanahayzen: Should I make a new MR without that one commit changing the password stuff?00:22
ahayzenmcinitreevan, no its cool, just revert that commit, then push :-)00:23
ahayzenmcinitreevan, also have a look at Girish's weather app MP for the other feedback as it'll like be similar for you00:23
mcinitreevanAlright, thanks!00:23
ahayzen:-)00:24
Girishahayzen: Fixed.00:27
ahayzenGirish, thanks just saw the comment00:27
ahayzenGirish, i think it'd be better if we have a static link for designs somewhere, as some apps have multiple designs and they get updated00:27
ahayzen...but haven't found one yet...00:27
Girishahayzen: Make a task for it!00:28
ahayzen\o/00:28
ahayzeneven if you could just go https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/community/core-apps/weather/#design00:28
GirishOkay.00:28
ahayzenhttps://developer.ubuntu.com/en/community/core-apps/weather/#getinvolved gets you close00:29
ahayzenballoons, maybe we could add a id="design" to the h3 tag for design on the coreapps pages ?00:29
Girishahayzen: If I add that link to the Useful Links section , the document will have 3 links directing to the same website.00:30
GirishCore apps wiki direct you there.00:30
ahayzenyeah :-/00:30
ahayzenGirish, i think guidance from balloons or popey would be best here00:31
GirishYep.00:31
fazerballoons,  I made the changes you wanted me to make, and phused.00:35
GirishDo you guys use Vim? Have notice vi a lot many times in the documentation.00:36
* wxl sure does00:36
fazerpushed*00:36
mcinitreevanahayzen: I reverted the commits, and bzr says the branches have diverged, what should I do?00:36
mcinitreevanI use Vim on my server through SSH,but on desktop I tend to use VS code00:37
ahayzenmcinitreevan, awww, ok try doing a pull to bring yourself back to what is on remote... then do a reverse cherry pick on that commit00:39
ahayzenthen commit that00:39
ahayzenor just take a branch of the remote, then do a reverse cherry pick00:39
Girishmcinitreevan: Or you could just make a new branch and push to that.00:39
GirishThat's what I did.00:39
mcinitreevanIll just make a new branch, honestly. Merge conflicts are my bane00:40
mcinitreevanIm guilty of using git push --force sometimes00:40
ahayzenmcinitreevan, just do $ bzr branch lp:~emailgirishrawat/ubuntu-weather-app/markdown-readmes00:40
ahayzenmcinitreevan, then do your fix and push :-)00:40
ahayzenmcinitreevan, do you use the command line or the bzr-explorer UI ?00:41
mcinitreevanYou linked me to girish's branch :P. But yeah, I suppose I can just pull and edit00:41
mcinitreevanI use the command line00:41
ahayzenoh!00:41
ahayzenlol00:41
ahayzenbzr branch lp:~mcintire-evan/ubuntu-terminal-app/improve_readmes :-) (too many tabs)00:42

ahayzenGirish, sweet :-)00:50
ahayzenmcinitreevan, thanks :-)00:50
ahayzenfazer, commented on your empty state autopilot MP, btw I linked your branch to the bug 1261587 and assigned the bug to you :-)01:00

fazeryeah, I just saw that.01:01
GirishWow that's an interesting bot we have got here.01:03
wxlGirish: yep. and he does some great things with packages, too. e.g.:01:04
ahayzenGirish, yah the but is useful :-)01:04

ahayzenfazer, also, you were on Wily right?01:07
ahayzenfazer, as you should be using schemasVersion 10 for the databases? likely you don't have the latest Xenial package ?01:07
ahayzen(for mediascanner2)01:07
fazerahayzen, yes I am on wily, I believe I have the latest mediascanner-2 packages. balloons directed me to them early during the task. Also, I have no clue what schemaVersion even is.01:37
ahayzenfazer, i think it should be 10, as that is what Victor set it to, i'll check with him :-)01:38
fazerok. I'll go ahead and change it then.01:38
ahayzenfazer, thanks :-) let me know if it breaks the tests01:39

Luis_Hi, I need a little guidance to complete a documentation task. I need to edit one page of ubuntu´s wiki, specifically this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation/UbuntuDesktopGuide How can I edit that page? Do I need to have ubuntu installed in order to do this? thanks for the help04:00
mcinitreevanLuis_: Im not 100% sure, but from a quick glance you do seem to need Ubuntu installed04:05
tsimonq2let me step in here04:05
tsimonq2You can have Ubuntu in a VM04:05
tsimonq2because although some wiki page edits don't require you to actually *run* Ubuntu, this is a desktop guide04:06
tsimonq2so it seems you need to run it04:06
tsimonq2Luis_: does that help?04:06
tsimonq2you should also look at the existing guides and see if they work04:06
Luis_Yeah, I understand the document itself seems to give instructions to edit it in ubuntu04:06
tsimonq2and if they don't, make them work04:06
tsimonq2Luis_: well no, you actually *edit* it in *any* OS04:07
Luis_+tsimoq2: So you are saying that I only need to download ubuntu and run it but not install it?04:07
tsimonq2Luis_: the documentation just applies to Ubuntu04:07
tsimonq2if you would like, in a Virtual Machine04:07
tsimonq2do you know what that is?04:07
Luis_I am not sure, correct me if am wrong, but isn´t it when you run an OS like in a windowed mode in another OS?04:08
tsimonq2yep :)04:10
tsimonq2Luis_: I would advise installing Virtualbox04:10
tsimonq2Luis_: then download an Ubuntu ISO file here is a direct link: http://releases.ubuntu.com/15.10/ubuntu-15.10-desktop-i386.iso04:12
tsimonq2Luis_: after that, make a new virtual machine, then boot the image and install Ubuntu in there04:12
tsimonq2Luis_: then play with that guide a bit04:12
tsimonq2Luis_: this will also be good so you can learn how to use Ubuntu some more :)04:13
Luis_Alright, just let me see if I understood everything04:13
Luis_I download VirtualBox, then the Ubuntu ISO, then I run VirtualBox and boot the image from VirtualBox, there I edit the guide04:14
Luis_Is that right?04:14
tsimonq2well once you get it booted, then install Ubuntu04:14
tsimonq2Luis_: here is a really good guide on using Virtualbox: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html04:15
tsimonq2Luis_: you might wanna skip to 1.6 and read the rest while Ubuntu is installing04:16
tsimonq2Luis_: ok, I gotta go off to bed soon04:19
tsimonq2Luis_: this should be enoguh to get you started04:19
tsimonq2Luis_: if you have any more questions, you can ping me, or there are a lot of other people here04:19
tsimonq2happy hacking! :)04:19
Luis_hahaha thanks for all the help, I´ll begin right now, have a good night :)04:23
tsimonq2night! :)04:24

xcubkenvandine, I have completed the primer https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/task-instances/5798967484874752/?sp-page=113:42
kenvandinexcub, i just added some comments :)13:50
kenvandinexcub, i'll be around for a few if you have questions13:51
kenvandinexcub, excellent work!13:51
xcubok thanks! I'll make the changes and resubmit :)13:53
xcuboh, and I have a question about updateInterval13:55
kenvandinexcub, yeah?13:55
xcubSince I set it to 15, does that mean it will run every 15 ms13:55
xcub?13:55
kenvandineupdateInterval gives you a way to let it skip ticks of the loop13:56
kenvandineyes13:56
kenvandinewhich is most likely not a good idea13:56
kenvandinei had missed that one13:56
xcubso that's probably why it was lagging so much :)13:56
kenvandineyup!13:56
kenvandinein fact, in that case you can just remove the updateInterval13:56
kenvandinelet it follow the game loop13:57
kenvandinexcub, or you could even use something like 30013:58
xcubalright, I'll explain this in the tutorial13:58
kenvandineand have it still look pretty smooth13:58
kenvandinethanks13:58
kenvandinexcub, i really like Behaviors :)13:59
kenvandinexcub, we have plans to add a SteeringBehavior, which uses opensteer to track a path or object13:59
xcubso, kind of like UIBezierPath in iOS? If so, that would be really useful!14:00
kenvandinexcub, maybe, isn't that for drawing?14:01
xcubYeah, but you can use it to create a path for an object to animate along.14:02
kenvandineah, something like that14:02
kenvandineyou would be able to have an entity follow another entity14:02
kenvandineperhaps with some built in latency to make it more challenging to follow14:02
kenvandinelike maybe a monster chasing your player14:03
kenvandineor just a car following a path around a track14:03
kenvandinethat the players car competes with14:04
xcubcould it allow you to create one of those "save other characters" games, where you go around freeing a CPU friend from something and they start following you around?14:05
kenvandineyup14:05
* kenvandine really need to find some time to do that :)14:05
xcubok, I'll go fix the tutorial :)14:05
kenvandinexcub, cool, thanks14:06
