rick_h | morning | 13:20 |
mrgoodcat | hows it going? | 13:21 |
cmaloney | Good morning. | 13:23 |
cmaloney | So far it's OK | 13:23 |
jrwren | Good Morning. | 13:32 |
jrwren | ugh... https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-j/pull/25 "I confirm the code being submitted is offered under the terms of the OCA, and that I am authorized to contribute it." so sad | 13:34 |
* rick_h whistles dixie | 13:35 | |
cmaloney | Oracle Contributor Agreement? | 13:41 |
rick_h | jrwren: ok, your reply to greg-g gets the award for most disturbing morning tweet | 13:41 |
cmaloney | or Orally Consenting Adults | 13:41 |
rick_h | cmaloney: yea | 13:41 |
cmaloney | rick_h: Which one? The Bernie quote? | 13:41 |
rick_h | cmaloney: yea | 13:42 |
* rick_h goes to the twitter tab to see what his friends are up to and...do what? | 13:42 | |
rick_h | takes a few reads to figure out wtf | 13:42 |
cmaloney | heh | 13:42 |
cmaloney | a: Tweetdeck makes Twitter useable, especially with RTs turned off | 13:43 |
cmaloney | b: Yeah... | 13:43 |
cmaloney | I wish Twitter also had a feature where if someone starts with 1/ that it says "Use a fucking blog" | 13:44 |
cmaloney | but that's just wishful thinking | 13:45 |
mrgoodcat | I wonder if any clients batch together threads into a single post with a [read more] anchor | 13:46 |
rick_h | heh, there's your business idea | 13:47 |
rick_h | reverse-cross posting | 13:47 |
cmaloney | Heh | 13:47 |
cmaloney | I know there's storify, but that's not a client | 13:47 |
rick_h | take the threads and a blog engine that you wire to your twitter account and rather than mirring your blog post to twitter, pulls your twitter posts and aggregates them into a blog entry | 13:47 |
mrgoodcat | lol | 13:48 |
mrgoodcat | i meant more for reading other people | 13:48 |
cmaloney | I mean, I've been guilty of it myself | 13:49 |
mrgoodcat | propublica frequently posts 10+ tweet threads. It would be nice to have the 9 after the first hidden by default | 13:49 |
cmaloney | where you start into a tweet-storm | 13:49 |
cmaloney | but I'm also seeing folks start off something like "I'm going to talk a little about X 1/" | 13:49 |
cmaloney | at which point it's premedidated | 13:49 |
mrgoodcat | that's what i'm talking about | 13:50 |
mrgoodcat | and a client would take 1/, 2/, 3/... n/ and batch them into a single view collapsed by default | 13:50 |
jrwren | rick_h: lol. I love politics with greg-g :) | 13:51 |
cmaloney | I'd rather write a bot that sees 1/ and responds with "please write a blog post" | 13:51 |
cmaloney | but mrgoodcat's idea is less confrontational | 13:51 |
rick_h | well now I need a new client? | 13:52 |
rick_h | that seems a bit less optimal | 13:52 |
rick_h | "Oh, you wrote something long...let me open goodcatwitter | 13:52 |
cmaloney | either that or we get out the virtual spankings | 13:52 |
jrwren | turns the story into an image with all the text. posts the image to twitter. | 13:52 |
jrwren | because.. TWITTER! | 13:52 |
cmaloney | That screencapping is to prevent folks from deleting stuff | 13:53 |
cmaloney | but yeah, that's really annoying | 13:53 |
cmaloney | It's the Twitter equivalent of smacking a bad pooch with a newspaper | 13:53 |
notlikethesoup | morning | 15:02 |
greg-g | jrwren: is that his book that people were worried would kill his campaign if he won the primary? | 15:44 |
jrwren | its an article he wrote in 1972 | 15:46 |
greg-g | link? I never read it :) | 15:47 |
jrwren | greg-g: http://www.motherjones.com/wp-content/uploads/Man_and_Woman_0.jpg | 15:47 |
greg-g | jrwren: That's a really weird article | 17:08 |
jrwren | greg-g: it was '72. he was young. | 17:09 |
greg-g | he was 31 | 17:10 |
greg-g | he's old now, remember :) | 17:10 |
jrwren | old enough to know better :( young enough to be stupid. | 17:11 |
greg-g | that's been me for the last decade | 17:12 |
greg-g | and will probably be me until I die :) | 17:12 |
greg-g | but it'll change to "old enough to know better, but just stupid" | 17:12 |
cmaloney | That's my epitaph right there | 17:24 |
rick_h | cmaloney: CHC tonight? | 17:54 |
cmaloney | Yep | 17:55 |
* rick_h might try to get down there after the boy's soccer game | 17:56 | |
cmaloney | Oh cool! | 17:56 |
_stink_ | where are you folks doing CHC these days | 18:08 |
rick_h | it's still bean and leaf in RO right? | 18:25 |
* rick_h figures that's good to make sure of before traveling down | 18:25 | |
cmaloney | Yeah, that's where it's at | 18:36 |
