[11:51] <cmaloney> morning
[12:30] <rick_h_> morning
[12:31] <cmaloney> How's the morning so far?
[12:34] <rick_h_> it goes
[12:34] <cmaloney> That doesn't sound optimistic.
[12:36] <jrwren> right down the drain
[12:38] <cmaloney> whee?
[12:45] <rick_h_> it's a fun ride eh?
[12:56] <jrwren> very
[12:59] <cmaloney> Well, at least you're having fun. ;)

[16:43] <_stink_> question for you python people.  i have *never* used the built in all() or any().  do you all use them?
[16:44] <rick_h_> once in a while
[16:44] <_stink_> do you think it's less or more expressive than a more language agnostic set of booleans and operators?
[17:21] <greg-g> my phone's sd card is corrupted :/
[17:26] <rick_h_> greg-g: :(
[17:26] <rick_h_> _stink_: meh, I don't know I feel strongly about it personally
[17:27] <_stink_> ok cool.  just wondered if there was a sense of what the ecosystem uses.  sounds like not.
[18:03] <jrwren> all/any, almost never. maybe once or twice in 2yrs of pure python
[18:04] <jrwren> _stink_: I definitely prefer all or any to a for loop and a conditional.
[18:04] <jrwren> _stink_: part of the reason I hate Go is that you CANT build those expressive constructs.
[18:13] <cmaloney> i... don't think I have used any / all
[18:14] <jrwren> filter/map/reduce?
[18:17] <cmaloney> i've used code where it woild be useful, but I don't recall using those words
[18:20] <cmaloney> That's cool though
[18:21] <cmaloney> It's like learning about contractions for the first time: now I want to find uses for them
[18:22] <cmaloney> greg-g: That sucks
[18:23] <greg-g> last night it gave me the "no sd card inserted" error. After a couple reinsertions it's now saying corrupted.... no fun
[18:23] <cmaloney> Ugh
[18:24] <cmaloney> (insert joke about not having this problem with Apple / Nexus phones. :( )
[18:26] <jrwren> iphone wins again.  no sd slot, no corruption
[18:31] <_stink_> haha
[18:52] <wolfger> Brick wins again!
[20:00] <greg-g> cmaloney: jrwren yeah, but then my 128g (plus 32 internal) would be waaaaaaaay more money than I would ever spend on a phone
[20:00] <greg-g> :)
[20:06] <cmaloney> greg-g: Oh I know.
[20:07] <cmaloney> It was the typical "so, um... *snort*, you know you urrrrmmm wouldn't have that problem... with an iPhone. errrrm" comment
[20:09] <jrwren> i forgot the ;) sarcasm.
[20:09] <jrwren> sorry.
[20:10] <jrwren> i mean, its TRUE... but its true because with an iphone the answer is just: NOPE.
[20:10] <jrwren> I want to...
[20:10] <jrwren> NOPE
[20:10] <jrwren> can i...
[20:10] <jrwren> NOPE
[20:10] <jrwren> I need to...
[20:10] <jrwren> NOPE
[20:11] <greg-g> yuuuup :)
[20:11] <greg-g> the simple life, with a $700 gadget
[20:15] <jrwren> sounds good to me ;]
[20:23] <cmaloney> rick_h_: Is it snowing by you?
[20:28] <rick_h_> cmaloney: was earlier
[20:28] <cmaloney> kk. JoDee looked at the radar
[20:28] <cmaloney> I think it's snowing north of you.
[20:29] <rick_h_> https://goo.gl/photos/cAMArAivTCt24i8s5
[20:30] <jrwren> ugh, i just looked at radar, that freeze line is too close.
[20:33] <cmaloney> jrwren: a-yup
[20:33] <greg-g> jrwren: still got some plants that matter or just wary of cold?
[20:35] <jrwren> greg-g: just not ready for the cold.
[20:35] <jrwren> greg-g: i do have some peppers still out there on the plant :)
[20:39] <greg-g> nice
[20:42] <cmaloney> I'm ready for the dandelions to be done getting jiggy on my lawn
[20:44] <jrwren> cmaloney: upside! you just cheered me up.
[20:45] <jrwren> the snow will cover up the proof that I'm the only one on the block who doesn't throw poison on the ground to kill broadleaf ;]
[20:46] <cmaloney> heh
[20:46] <cmaloney> Both of my neighbors successfully spray for dandelions
[20:47] <cmaloney> but my yard is not immune.
[20:48] <jrwren> those murderers!
[20:49] <cmaloney> I dunno. Sometimes I feel like Dandelion Patient Zero or Typhoid Mary
[20:50] <rick_h_> cmaloney: heh yea I was that yard
[20:50] <rick_h_> but then bought in to being a yard snob
[20:50] <jrwren> me too, but I don't care.
[20:50] <jrwren> don't do it rick_h_ ! ;]
[20:51] <rick_h_> too late, trugreen bill is due about now
[20:51] <jrwren> i like to think of my yard as a home for worms and slugs and other things birds like to eat. I want to attract all the birds, and I do.
[20:51] <rick_h_> meh, they come around anyway
[20:51] <jrwren> the grass is only there until I replace it with something else
[20:51] <rick_h_> lots of worms
[20:52] <rick_h_> and bugs
[20:52] <jrwren> you must have the good truegreen.
[20:52] <rick_h_> just not grubs, or dandelions, or ...
[20:52] <rick_h_> meh, they're average but they put stuff down that is > me not doing anything
[20:52] <jrwren> nothing is better than me not doing anything ;]
[20:52] <rick_h_> well I tell myself I need a grassy yard so I can tackle the boy around and not come in all muddy
[20:53] <rick_h_> just grass stain-y
[20:53] <rick_h_> softer landing for old dad bones
[20:53] <cmaloney> I don't mind mowing the grass, but weeding shit makes me sad
[20:53] <cmaloney> If the mower / weed eater can't pick it up then it's dead to me
[20:53] <cmaloney> Just wet the yard before playing
[20:54] <cmaloney> problem == solved.
[20:55] <jrwren> i love the clover and strawberry in the yard. I don't want to get rid of them, even if it means keeping the dandilions
[20:55] <jrwren> hell, i try to feed the clover ;]
[20:55] <jrwren> if there is a big patch, I don't mow it down, I mow around.
[20:56] <cmaloney> The only thing that I care about is not getting another citation for "noxious weeds"
[20:56] <cmaloney> *cough*Royal Oak*cough*
[20:56] <jrwren> lol.
[20:56] <jrwren> did you really?
[20:56] <_stink_> OBnoxious weeds maybe
[20:56] <_stink_> yelling at the dog walkers
[20:57] <jrwren> buckthorn is about hte onlything I really don't like seeing, luckily, its easy to pull and doesn't spread like crazy
[21:01] <rick_h_> cmaloney: you doing CHC tonight?
[21:03] <cmaloney> Yeah
[21:03] <cmaloney> Planning on being there
[21:03] <cmaloney> Taking J to class in a few minutes
[21:47] <jrwren> hrm... i just realized with comcast usage caps, now I'm going to look at EOM to see if I'm near limit and if not, download tons of shit I wouldn't have otherwise.
[21:49] <greg-g> :)
[22:19] <cmaloney> jrwren: hah
