[10:43] morning [11:24] morn [11:35] how goes? [11:36] wheee? [11:36] wife is bummed, got her a new mountain bike yesterday and now rain today [11:40] Ah, so you're the culprit. :) [11:42] Current status: https://twitter.com/squeekyhoho/status/781457892838739968 and https://twitter.com/squeekyhoho/status/781458283735363584 [11:43] 10k nodes? [11:43] I'm exaggerating. :) [11:44] Just a feeling of being left behind [11:44] (nobody's fault but mine) [12:28] ooh! what kind of mountain bike? [12:40] I wanted her to look at a giant tempt [12:40] but she liked the specialized one better with the larger wheels [12:41] I'm looking to try to get a giant fathom here soon, but she got into mountain biking first and I wanted to get her onto a safer bike [12:41] ooooh! larger wheels! [12:42] yea, we've had 29'er bikes so far [12:42] so she liked keeping those [12:42] vs the 650b wheels [12:42] nice! [12:43] what makes for a safer bike? [12:43] so we've both had specialized crosstrails [12:43] so their more street/dirt road bikes [12:43] nice! [12:43] did she get a hardrock, or something nicer? [12:44] so the tires are smooth vs off road grip, the new bike has hydraulic disk brakes, and better components overall [12:44] she got a hardtail, coil spring fork nothing too fancy [12:44] hydraulic disks are really nice. I remember the one time I rode one with them. it was luxury ;] [12:44] she doesn't notice the differences in things as much unfortunately, so my main goals was wider tires, more grip, and better brakes = safer to run trails on [12:45] yup. i get it now. [12:46] at first, I couldn't understand what safer would mean, but now that you mention hybrid v. mountain bike, it makes complete sense. [12:46] yea [17:07] Pretty sure my nickname for this unemployment row is "Dobby" [17:07] * rick_h_ is curious how that lines up [17:08] Mentioned to JoDee that I got a ping-back from one of the applications, and she said "that's nice. Make the bed and put up the shower curtain" [17:10] whee [17:11] <_stink_> haha [17:12] cmaloney: amazon is hiring in detroit, IIRC [17:13] Last few times I've talked to them they wanted us to relocate to the mothership [17:13] which I'm reluctant to do (for now) [17:16] oh. bummer. [17:24] non-remote friendly tech organizations are so dumb [17:24] (in my completely unbiased opinion, of course) [17:28] lol [17:31] greg-g: :) [17:33] greg-g: Which is why I applied to a remote-friendly tech organization but I think they filled the position. [17:33] :/ [17:34] Unfortunately I don't have the security chops for the positions that are available. [17:35] http://stackoverflow.com/jobs/companies/wikimedia-foundation-inc [17:36] yeah, those are our main open reqs now [17:42] greg-g: what is the difference between those two positions? [17:43] greg-g: the app sec one is more js focussed? [17:43] One looks like a liaison role [17:43] where you're doing more with the outside world [17:43] (the application security engineer) [19:04] I think so, yeah === brousch__ is now known as brousch_ [21:06] I'm listening to soma.fm via a nodejs cli app [21:07] * rick_h_ runs away [21:08] yeah, 'twas my first time doing a npm install on this laptop, actually :) [21:08] but but.... cli apps! [21:10] Why node of all things? [21:11] why not node!? [21:11] https://gist.github.com/craigmaloney/0260780ec4dec16a32367ce1fdfffc9c [21:12] Heh, that script no longer works because I don't have mpg123 on my machine anymore [21:12] using the Squeezebox [21:12] With Perl, and C (like a gentleman) [21:13] Zimdale: Why not node? I don't trust the ecosystem. [21:13] The ecosystem doens't trust you! [21:13] ;) [21:13] cmaloney: heh [21:13] It feels like Node installs 130 packages just to get started [21:14] it does... [21:14] it could be that they haven't made a stdlib like Python eventually earned. [21:15] https://paste.debian.net/845618/ [21:15] But the worst I've seen for Python dependencies tends to be on the tens of packages [21:15] not on the hundreds [21:15] 37 for the somafm cli [21:16] Jeez [21:16] https://github.com/uschek/somafm [21:16] got@5.6.0 (lowercase-keys@1.0.0, timed-out@2.0.0, is-redirect@1.0.0, ? [21:16] no idea [21:16] effing node [21:17] Oh, and it pipes through mplayer [21:18] how adorable [21:18] 37 packages to parse somafm and pipe to mplayer. [21:18] It is cool though, I'll grant that [21:21] :) [21:29] you guys are funny. :) [21:38] but right :)
