[13:24] <_stink__> yo

[14:49] <jrwren> ~GEM!!!!
[16:03] <cmaloney> I have now taken to saying "it is what it is" as my default catchphrase
[16:03] <cmaloney> please be advised
[16:04] <jrwren> that is pretty bad.
[16:04] <cmaloney> jrwren: Yeah, I remember one publishing program that we had (not sure if it was Envision or what) that used GEM
[16:04] <cmaloney> I want to say it was Envision but I think we had something else that was DR
[16:04] <cmaloney> (Digital Research)
[16:04] <cmaloney> and it surely wasn't Ventura
[16:05] <cmaloney> Had an interview with a company / collective where I would have to invoice my hours
[16:05] <cmaloney> so that was fun
[16:05] <cmaloney> Fully OSS, but very different model than I'm used to for a business
[16:08] <cmaloney> And naturally the whole feasability of the job is whether or not the GOP decides to fuck with healthcare
[16:09] <cmaloney> That's awesome because it put the USA at a competitive disadvantage
[16:09] <cmaloney> But hey: "tax cuts for the rich" - making the USA great since 1980
[20:38] <greg-g> :)
[21:32] <dzho> puts the US at a competitive advantage against countries that have, you know, decent standards of living, a middle class, etc etc
[21:33] <dzho> it improves US competitiveness against countries where life remains substantially more nasty, brutish, and short that the previous set
[21:33] <dzho> it's all about your peer aspirations.
