cmaloneymorning13:20
cmaloneyHaving fun here. Got in to a fender bender last night13:20
cmaloneyperson behind me didn't stop13:20
cmaloneynothing serious but now it's "call this, do that".13:21
cmaloneyand of course it was before taking Pixel to the vet13:21
cmaloneywhee13:22
_stink_:/13:22
cmaloney's all good13:22
cmaloneyon the plus side: JavaScript has broken my brain enough that I'm enjoying playing with scheme / guile13:24
cmaloneyso I have that going for me13:24
shakes808cmaloney: glad you are alright.13:25
shakes808oh boy haha, scheme.  just got away from that.13:26
cmaloneyWHere were you doing scheme?13:27
cmaloneyshakes808: Thanks. JoDee went to the hospital because she didn't feel right, but she's fine13:27
cmaloneythey just pumped her up with aspirin13:28
shakes808After MorPACE, I was recruited to United Shore Financial Services.  The system that they had was a thrid party loan origination system and the way you customized it was with scheme.13:31
shakes808I believe we talked about it when I was coming to your CHC on Woodward because when i started there, they were just up the road.13:31
shakes808they have migrated to C# since, but they still have that third party software running the backend calcs.13:32
shakes808they said they were going to be off that system in 1 year ( > 3 year ago ) and they still are using it13:32
shakes808they didn't want to listen to some of us and the business "knew better" so they are stuck with it currently and are running more instances of it in the back end then ever because they just don't understand their own calculations for the business that they are in...  :|13:33
jrwrenshakes808: wait... you worked for Shore? Do you know Matt Rose?13:34
shakes808And JoDee didn't feel well because of the accident or is that a separate event?13:34
shakes808jrwren: yeah he was the UI lead.  heard he walked out or something,  he was a good guy.   took a lot of shit while he was there13:35
jrwrenshakes808: they fired him.13:35
jrwrenshakes808: his is a very good friend of mine.13:35
shakes808what for?13:35
jrwren"he is"13:35
jrwreni don't know. He doesn't really know. I think that new VP came in and wanted to make some waves.13:35
shakes808that new vp is a dipshit13:36
shakes808another one or two directors left because of him13:36
shakes808one of them was asked what would they have to do to keep him, basically said he would stay if they canned the vp13:37
shakes808the director put in his 2 weeks on the spot because they said that wasn't going to happen13:37
shakes808that place doesn't know their ass from a hole in the ground13:38
shakes808it is pretty funny to be on the outside looking in.  i still keep in contact with some people there13:38
shakes808jrwren: what is matt up to now a days?13:41
jrwrenhe was out of work for a while, now he is working at some consulting place in detriot.13:44
cmaloneyshakes808: I don't remember you mentioning scheme (or if you did I filed it away in the "huh, that's weird" bucket)13:44
jrwrenthey have office right on woodward, it looks lovely13:44
cmaloneybut that's cool13:44
shakes808jrwren: glad he found something.13:47
shakes808cmaloney: yeah, itwas more of a`who the hell is using scheme?!`13:47
shakes808it was*13:47
jrwrenscheme is just a lisp and everyone is using lisp... aren't they?13:57
cmaloneyJavScript is just a lisp. ;)13:58
cmaloneyWe are all lisp13:58
jrwrenzactly13:58
cmaloneyI'm a bit surprised that Logo was essentially a Lisp13:58
* cmaloney never learned proper logo13:58
jrwrenme either, apparently.14:01
cmaloneyYeah, I had an Atari program called "Turtle" which was a weak little "move the turtle around"14:04
