[02:14] <dzho> date -d @1500000000
[02:14] <dzho> coming up soon
[03:07] <cmaloney> Happy timestamp thingie
[15:40] <cmaloney> jrwren: What is this old job / new job thing? :)
[16:20] <jrwren> old job - Canonical.
[16:20] <jrwren> new job - spacemonkey
[16:23] <greg-g> jrwren: still working from home?
[16:27] <jrwren> yes, I was in SLC M-Th this week, but today I'm back home.
[16:28] <greg-g> I was wondering about that boating picture
[16:28] <greg-g> cool
[16:29] <cmaloney> jrwren: That's awesome!
[16:29] <cmaloney> Congratulations!
[16:32] <jrwren> thanks!
[16:34] <greg-g> Their WP article could use some copy editing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Monkey_%28company%29
[16:34] <greg-g> "Products 1TB drive" heh
[16:34] <jrwren> yeah?
[16:35] <jrwren> that founder, Clint Gordon-Carroll is a really cool guy. Treats people with more kindness and understanding than I've ever seen from any founder type.
[16:35] <greg-g> awesome, that's great
[16:36] <greg-g> and by copy editing, I mean, it kind of repeats it's self (the article) and I can't get a good idea of what they actually do :)
[16:36] <greg-g> just ranting, not about you/the company ;)
[16:36] <jrwren> cloud storage service... what is to get? :)
[16:36] <greg-g> congrats ;)
[16:37] <greg-g> jrwren: how it's different than the 83914 other ones? :P
[16:37] <jrwren> greg-g: in this case, there is no datacenter, the cloud is not someone elses server, it is all the other spacemonkeys.
[16:37] <greg-g> ahhh, that's why the comment about peer-to-peer file storage
[16:40] <jrwren> Yes, and now that they are owned by vivint home security, its a bit different than that description, but still an awesome team.
[16:40] <jrwren> I'm pretty excited.
[16:40]  * greg-g nods
[16:40] <greg-g> cool man
[16:40] <jrwren> I choose this over Khan Academy and Joyent, with whom I was also interviewing.
[16:41] <greg-g> I don't know much about Joyent, but you made a good choice re Khan
[16:41] <jrwren> oh yeah?
[16:41] <jrwren> Why do you say that?
[16:42] <greg-g> my info is from about 2012, but: grant funded is not a great business model. And I didn't hear similar things about Khan as what you said about Clint
[16:43] <greg-g> to elaborate: grant funding does weird things to your planning and team expectations
[16:43] <jrwren> Ah. I see. Well, i know 2 Khan employees and they both love it, so plz consider that it has changed a lot.
[16:43] <greg-g> ah, cool
[16:43] <jrwren> They have 2yrs of runway of funds even if they dont' get renewed funds.
[16:44] <jrwren> whcih is maybe different than it was 5 yrs ago.
[16:44] <greg-g> oh, totally
[16:44] <cmaloney> jrwren: Very cool choice. First i've heard of Spacemonkey.
[16:48] <greg-g> heh, the main/really only contributor to the spacemonekys WP article has only worked on that article, I smell a COI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Steve_the_Tech_Guy ;)
[16:48] <greg-g> (conflict of interest)
[16:48] <cmaloney> heh
[16:48] <greg-g> (I don't care, no one probably does, it's not pure PR speak)
[16:58] <jrwren> http://timestamp.online/countdown/1500000000
[16:58] <cmaloney> Yeah, the moment passed already
[17:02] <jrwren> it did? oh. i missed it.   oh.. dzho even said so.
[17:23] <cmaloney> heh
[20:28] <dzho> even
[20:28] <dzho> oddly enough
[21:06] <greg-g> thcipriani: "The isntaller is now overwritting (the partition) with random data..."
[21:06] <greg-g> er
[21:06] <greg-g> minus the nick at the beginning, but ^
[21:23] <cmaloney> nice
[21:23] <cmaloney> Which installer is this?
[21:27] <greg-g> the netinst one with nonfree wifi drivers (le sigh)
[21:28] <greg-g> and, er, Debian Stretch :)
