drkokandy | hi from OLF! | 14:27 |
drkokandy | free Hyatt WiFi on this side of the convention center, like it | 14:27 |
thafreak | nice. | 15:46 |
thafreak | I'm bringing a hotspot because I can never get any signal | 15:46 |
thafreak | I wonder how many people see me on IRC full screen at Starbucks and think I'm like a "movie hacker" | 15:48 |
drkokandy | lol | 17:06 |
drkokandy | chitchatting in IRC looks just like hacking | 17:08 |

thafreak | lol, plus my other window i switch to is a tmux window with nvim and a console in two panes :) | 17:11 |
dzho | thafreak: I actually met someone that way ... they came up behind me and said "Is that *mutt* ?!" | 17:37 |
dzho | drkokandy: oh hi from OLF! | 17:37 |
dzho | which SSID is free-as-in-wifi? | 17:37 |
drkokandy | @Hyatt something | 17:38 |
drkokandy | you have to give them your name and an email address | 17:38 |
drkokandy | but then you can access for a day | 17:38 |
drkokandy | @Hyatt_WiFi I think is the full name | 17:38 |
thafreak | I met some one because I was wearing a python shirt... | 17:38 |
dzho | ok thanks. | 17:39 |
* dzho can't see it from Franklin A just now | 17:39 | |
dzho | HyattMR asks for an access code | 17:39 |
* dzho is tethered | 17:39 | |
drkokandy | that's strange, I have @Hyatt_WiFi from Franklin C | 17:39 |
dzho | end of the month so I've got data to spare | 17:40 |
dzho | especially if it's just ssh and irssi ;-) | 17:40 |
drkokandy | lol yeah | 17:40 |
dzho | drkokandy: LPI? | 17:41 |
drkokandy | Early Penguin track | 17:41 |
drkokandy | shell scripting | 17:41 |
dzho | oh, I guess that's where I am: more like shell scripting discussion than presentation, amirite | 17:43 |
dzho | I'm the one who mouthed off asking if the 'cut' -c is bytes or multi-byte characters | 17:43 |
drkokandy | oh okay, I'm on the other side of the room from you I think | 17:44 |
drkokandy | but yeah same room | 17:44 |
dzho | omg we're into spaces-vs-tabs | 17:46 |
drkokandy | pls help | 17:48 |
drkokandy | for a second I was thinking about running | 17:49 |
dzho | I'm thinking of livening things up by chiming in with something about event designators | 17:52 |
dzho | (I had to look that term up in the man page just now: !!, !$, !* that sort of thing) | 17:52 |
thafreak | event designators? in shell scripting? what are these? I'm not familiar | 17:52 |
dzho | when he talked about writing shell scripts with echo | 17:52 |
dzho | so 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 command | 17:53 |
dzho | like | 17:53 |
thafreak | now I feel like I should be down there | 17:53 |
dzho | echo rm somestuffgoeshere | 17:53 |
dzho | then when I see that "somethingoeshere" tab-completes like I think it should I hit return and it just echoes | 17:54 |
dzho | then, I hit !* on a line by itself and that strips the "echo" off and actually does the rm command | 17:54 |
dzho | doesn't work for pipelines and redirects but I find it super handy | 17:54 |
dzho | see also | 17:54 |
dzho | joe somefilethatneedsroot | 17:55 |
dzho | (error about not having root perms) | 17:55 |
dzho | sudo !! | 17:55 |
thafreak | joe? Really :) | 17:55 |
dzho | (!! is just a repetion of the command immediately above) | 17:55 |
dzho | rly | 17:55 |
thafreak | Also, 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 |
dzho | it's not about the name: that's what PINE was configured to use on the first Unix email account I had | 17:56 |
thafreak | i thought pine used pico | 17:56 |
dzho | these are things I picked up relatively late in the game | 17:56 |
dzho | yah, pine came with pico, but the sysadmins apparently had permissions | 17:56 |
thafreak | i used pico back in the pine days... | 17:57 |
dzho | er, permissions, I mean had opinions | 17:57 |
thafreak | I cannot for the life of me remember when/how I went from pico to vi | 17:57 |
dzho | shame | 17:58 |
thafreak | Nor why I never used emacs | 17:58 |
dzho | haha | 17:58 |
thafreak | It's like part of my memory is gone? college....who knows what happens there | 17:58 |
dzho | ikr | 17:58 |
thafreak | All the new kids I work with from the university get taught emacs now, which I find funny | 17:59 |
drkokandy | that's interesting | 17:59 |
thafreak | So joe huh...wouldn't have pegged you for a joe guy... | 17:59 |
thafreak | A dev I worked with at basically my first post-college job insisted I install joe on every server for him to use | 18:00 |
thafreak | Pretty much the only thing I know about it besides it's name being recursive, like "Joe's own editor" | 18:01 |
drkokandy | lol | 18:03 |
drkokandy | hmm, there aren't a lot of BoF sessions | 19:49 |
drkokandy | do you think there would be interest in an Ubuntu or Ubuntu Ohio BoF? | 19:51 |
