[10:43] <cmaloney> morning
[11:24] <rick_h_> morn
[11:35] <cmaloney> how goes?
[11:36] <rick_h_> wheee?
[11:36] <rick_h_> wife is bummed, got her a new mountain bike yesterday and now rain today
[11:40] <cmaloney> Ah, so you're the culprit. :)
[11:42] <cmaloney> Current status: https://twitter.com/squeekyhoho/status/781457892838739968 and https://twitter.com/squeekyhoho/status/781458283735363584
[11:43] <rick_h_> 10k nodes?
[11:43] <cmaloney> I'm exaggerating. :)
[11:44] <cmaloney> Just a feeling of being left behind
[11:44] <cmaloney> (nobody's fault but mine)
[12:28] <jrwren> ooh! what kind of mountain bike?
[12:40] <rick_h_> I wanted her to look at a giant tempt
[12:40] <rick_h_> but she liked the specialized one better with the larger wheels
[12:41] <rick_h_> 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] <jrwren> ooooh! larger wheels!
[12:42] <rick_h_> yea, we've had 29'er bikes so far
[12:42] <rick_h_> so she liked keeping those
[12:42] <rick_h_> vs the 650b wheels
[12:42] <jrwren> nice!
[12:43] <jrwren> what makes for a safer bike?
[12:43] <rick_h_> so we've both had specialized crosstrails
[12:43] <rick_h_> so their more street/dirt road bikes
[12:43] <cmaloney> nice!
[12:43] <jrwren> did she get a hardrock, or something nicer?
[12:44] <rick_h_> so the tires are smooth vs off road grip, the new bike has hydraulic disk brakes, and better components overall
[12:44] <rick_h_> she got a hardtail, coil spring fork nothing too fancy
[12:44] <jrwren> hydraulic disks are really nice. I remember the one time I rode one with them. it was luxury ;]
[12:44] <rick_h_> 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] <jrwren> yup. i get it now.
[12:46] <jrwren> 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] <rick_h_> yea
[17:07] <cmaloney> Pretty sure my nickname for this unemployment row is "Dobby"
[17:07]  * rick_h_ is curious how that lines up
[17:08] <cmaloney> 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] <cmaloney> whee
[17:11] <_stink_> haha
[17:12] <jrwren> cmaloney: amazon is hiring in detroit, IIRC
[17:13] <cmaloney> Last few times I've talked to them they wanted us to relocate to the mothership
[17:13] <cmaloney> which I'm reluctant to do (for now)
[17:16] <jrwren> oh. bummer.
[17:24] <greg-g> non-remote friendly tech organizations are so dumb
[17:24] <greg-g> (in my completely unbiased opinion, of course)
[17:28] <jrwren> lol
[17:31] <rick_h_> greg-g: :)
[17:33] <cmaloney> greg-g: Which is why I applied to a remote-friendly tech organization but I think they filled the position.
[17:33] <greg-g> :/
[17:34] <cmaloney> Unfortunately I don't have the security chops for the positions that are available.
[17:35] <cmaloney> http://stackoverflow.com/jobs/companies/wikimedia-foundation-inc
[17:36] <greg-g> yeah, those are our main open reqs now
[17:42] <jrwren> greg-g: what is the difference between those two positions?
[17:43] <jrwren> greg-g: the app sec one is more js focussed?
[17:43] <cmaloney> One looks like a liaison role
[17:43] <cmaloney> where you're doing more with the outside world
[17:43] <cmaloney> (the application security engineer)
[19:04] <greg-g> I think so, yeah
[21:06] <greg-g> I'm listening to soma.fm via a nodejs cli app
[21:07]  * rick_h_ runs away
[21:08] <greg-g> yeah, 'twas my first time doing a npm install on this laptop, actually :)
[21:08] <greg-g> but but.... cli apps!
[21:10] <cmaloney> Why node of all things?
[21:11] <Zimdale> why not node!?
[21:11] <cmaloney> https://gist.github.com/craigmaloney/0260780ec4dec16a32367ce1fdfffc9c
[21:12] <cmaloney> Heh, that script no longer works because I don't have mpg123 on my machine anymore
[21:12] <cmaloney> using the Squeezebox
[21:12] <cmaloney> With Perl, and C (like a gentleman)
[21:13] <cmaloney> Zimdale: Why not node? I don't trust the ecosystem.
[21:13] <Zimdale> The ecosystem doens't trust you!
[21:13] <cmaloney> ;)
[21:13] <greg-g> cmaloney: heh
[21:13] <cmaloney> It feels like Node installs 130 packages just to get started
[21:14] <greg-g> it does...
[21:14] <cmaloney> it could be that they haven't made a stdlib like Python eventually earned.
[21:15] <greg-g> https://paste.debian.net/845618/
[21:15] <cmaloney> But the worst I've seen for Python dependencies tends to be on the tens of packages
[21:15] <cmaloney> not on the hundreds
[21:15] <greg-g> 37 for the somafm cli
[21:16] <cmaloney> Jeez
[21:16] <greg-g> https://github.com/uschek/somafm
[21:16] <cmaloney> got@5.6.0 (lowercase-keys@1.0.0, timed-out@2.0.0, is-redirect@1.0.0, ?
[21:16] <greg-g> no idea
[21:16] <greg-g> effing node
[21:17] <cmaloney> Oh, and it pipes through mplayer
[21:18] <cmaloney> how adorable
[21:18] <cmaloney> 37 packages to parse somafm and pipe to mplayer.
[21:18] <cmaloney> It is cool though, I'll grant that
[21:21] <greg-g> :)
[21:29] <gamerchick02> you guys are funny. :)
[21:38] <greg-g> but right :)
