drkokandychitchatting in IRC looks just like hacking17:08

thafreaklol, plus my other window i switch to is a tmux window with nvim and a console in two panes :)17:11
dzhothafreak: I actually met someone that way ... they came up behind me and said "Is that *mutt* ?!"17:37
dzhodrkokandy: oh hi from OLF!17:37
dzhowhich SSID is free-as-in-wifi?17:37
drkokandy@Hyatt something17:38
drkokandyyou have to give them your name and an email address17:38
drkokandybut then you can access for a day17:38
drkokandy@Hyatt_WiFi I think is the full name17:38
thafreakI met some one because I was wearing a python shirt...17:38
dzhook thanks.17:39
* dzho can't see it from Franklin A just now17:39
dzhoHyattMR asks for an access code17:39
* dzho is tethered17:39
drkokandythat's strange, I have @Hyatt_WiFi from Franklin C17:39
dzhoend of the month so I've got data to spare17:40
dzhoespecially if it's just ssh and irssi ;-)17:40
drkokandylol yeah17:40
dzhodrkokandy: LPI?17:41
drkokandyEarly Penguin track17:41
drkokandyshell scripting17:41
dzhooh, I guess that's where I am: more like shell scripting discussion than presentation, amirite17:43
dzhoI'm the one who mouthed off asking if the 'cut' -c is bytes or multi-byte characters 17:43
drkokandyoh okay, I'm on the other side of the room from you I think17:44
drkokandybut yeah same room17:44
dzhoomg we're into spaces-vs-tabs17:46
drkokandypls help17:48
drkokandyfor a second I was thinking about running17:49
dzhoI'm thinking of livening things up by chiming in with something about event designators17:52
dzho(I had to look that term up in the man page just now: !!, !$, !* that sort of thing)17:52
thafreakevent designators? in shell scripting? what are these? I'm not familiar17:52
dzhowhen he talked about writing shell scripts with echo17:52
dzhoso here's the thing, I will create a shell command using tab completion, but to be safe(ish) I will start off just echoing the command17:53
dzholike17:53
thafreaknow I feel like I should be down there17:53
dzhoecho rm somestuffgoeshere17:53
dzhothen when I see that "somethingoeshere" tab-completes like I think it should I hit return and it just echoes17:54
dzhothen, I hit !* on a line by itself and that strips the "echo" off and actually does the rm command17:54
dzhodoesn't work for pipelines and redirects but I find it super handy17:54
dzhosee also17:54
dzhojoe somefilethatneedsroot17:55
dzho(error about not having root perms)17:55
dzhosudo !!17:55
thafreakjoe? Really :)17:55
dzho(!! is just a repetion of the command immediately above)17:55
dzhorly17:55
thafreakAlso, those are things that a prof of mine covered once during an ACM meeting, but I fell asleep...and always wished I knew how to use ;)17:56
dzhoit's not about the name: that's what PINE was configured to use on the first Unix email account I had17:56
thafreaki thought pine used pico17:56
dzhothese are things I picked up relatively late in the game17:56
dzhoyah, pine came with pico, but the sysadmins apparently had permissions17:56
thafreaki used pico back in the pine days...17:57
dzhoer, permissions, I mean had opinions17:57
thafreakI cannot for the life of me remember when/how I went from pico to vi17:57
dzhoshame17:58
thafreakNor why I never used emacs17:58
dzhohaha17:58
thafreakIt's like part of my memory is gone? college....who knows what happens there17:58
dzhoikr17:58
thafreakAll the new kids I work with from the university get taught emacs now, which I find funny17:59
drkokandythat's interesting17:59
thafreakSo joe huh...wouldn't have pegged you for a joe guy...17:59
thafreakA dev I worked with at basically my first post-college job insisted I install joe on every server for him to use18:00
thafreakPretty much the only thing I know about it besides it's name being recursive, like "Joe's own editor"18:01
drkokandylol18:03
drkokandyhmm, there aren't a lot of BoF sessions19:49
drkokandydo you think there would be interest in an Ubuntu or Ubuntu Ohio BoF?19:51
