[02:37] ermuhgurd... UKUI might be the linux desktop i've always wanted. [02:47] really? nice. [02:54] probably not, but I think it is cool [03:52] Evening [03:52] Just got back from the WIngs / Blues game [05:01] <_stink__> nice! [13:58] Good morning [14:01] good morning! :) [14:28] cmaloney: rick_h: are you still active with CHC? there is someone in CHC IRC asking [14:28] cmaloney: no, on a bowling league CHC night these days [14:30] I'm still active, but I was out last night [14:30] apparently rick_h is doing everything but CHC. ;) [14:30] ah, gotcha [14:30] rick_h == living life ? ! haha [14:30] heh, trying to [14:39] live life, because you are going to die. [14:39] rumor has it [14:39] That's good to know [14:39] though I'm not so sure [14:39] https://youtu.be/snEcAdbGXTY [14:40] rick_h: Do you have permission to add people to https://github.com/coffeehousecoders ? [14:41] * rick_h looks [14:41] cmaloney: yes [14:41] please add me. :) [14:41] Thanks. :) [14:41] doh you're not cmaloney [14:41] what's your GH username? [14:41] craigmaloney [14:42] sent [14:44] danke. [14:45] np, thanks for being a CHC super hero [14:46] Well, I have to have somewhere for rick_h to come back to. :) [15:10] Honestly, I think I'll be at the coffee shop tonight if anyone wants to meet up. JoDee's got class tonight. [15:19] Or I should say "JoDee is going to class tonight". Both of her classes this semester are terrible [15:24] <_stink__> booo [15:27] Yeah, remarkably so [15:27] they're both classes that are essentially "online" [15:27] ewe. [15:28] what school? what courses? [15:28] OCC [15:28] The database course at the Royal Oak Campus is remarkably terrible [15:28] They're using Visio and Access [15:28] and she's having to teach herself [15:29] O_O [15:29] zomg. [15:29] oh, she is taking the courses, not teaching them? [15:29] It's using some CEngage book / site that isn't _too_ bad, but trying to figure out what they want becomes a game of mastermind, not learning [15:29] She's taking them [15:29] The other one is a networking class, but she's actually learning things in that class [15:29] Why did I think she was a professor or instructor? [15:30] the instructor wants to help, but it seems he got this "course" dumped on him. [15:30] she is, but she also takes classes [15:30] stuff that interests her [15:30] which is a pisser because the Database class was the one she was looking forward to taking [15:30] because astronomy == databases. [15:31] but she's having to teach herself the material because the instructor (no joke) reads the textbook to them [15:31] ah! [15:32] but in a "skimming the textbook" sort of way [15:32] HOLY SHIT!?!? at OCC?!? amazeballs. [15:32] That's the full-time faculty too [15:32] then again, i know what CC instructors get paid. I can't blame them much. [15:32] WHAT?!?! [15:32] a-yep [15:32] its not a research school. wtf else does a full-time faculty do at a CC? [15:32] she's pissed off [15:32] Apparently play story-time with databases [15:32] she should be. [15:33] Well, there's things full-time faculty do [15:33] curriculum work, class-load, mentoring of adjuncts [15:33] i wonder who teaches the DB course at OU these days. When I took it, it was very good [15:33] paperwork [19:39] Well, I didn't get the position with Open Source Robotics. :( [19:40] :( [19:40] cmaloney: :( [19:44] that sucks, sorry to hear [19:48] No worries. I had a feeling they were going to pass [19:49] my buddy said he doesn't have that much work to add another person. but he said that he will keep your information in case something comes up that fits your bill [19:50] No worriesl [19:51] UNfortunately I'm in a strange position in my career [19:51] cost too much for junior work, competent in a lot of older stuff, and cloud-illiterate [19:52] haha, well, i would hope you wouldn't be considering the "junior" work. You could try automotive, they work with "older" technologies ;) JK :) [19:53] I can reach out to my last employer to see if they are looking. they are working with VB and C# [19:53] I know you are looking for something else, but it is a job [19:53] Nah, that's quite alright [19:53] alright [19:53] I'm also a little more picky than I probably should be [19:54] I don't want to do sales / marketing / automotive / healthcare [19:54] and that's pretty much what everyone in this area does [19:54] which is partly why that position at OSR was so appealing [19:54] if you are able to be picky, then do it. but just don't put yourself in a bad place ( financially ) [19:54] but they're also a younger company. I'm old. [19:55] I'm 45. I don't go skiing because I'll break things. [19:55] have you thought about teaching? Could go the the local comm college and see if you could pick up a class or two [19:55] HAHAHAHAHA [19:55] But that is all the fun [19:55] Try snowboarding. less likely to break something :) [19:56] Yeah, that's quite alright [20:47] :-(
