[13:14] <mrgoodcat> morning
[13:20] <rick_h> morning
[13:21] <mrgoodcat> hows it going?
[13:23] <cmaloney> Good morning.
[13:23] <cmaloney> So far it's OK
[13:32] <jrwren> Good Morning.
[13:34] <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
[13:35]  * rick_h whistles dixie
[13:41] <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?
[13:42] <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
[13:43] <cmaloney> a: Tweetdeck makes Twitter useable, especially with RTs turned off
[13:43] <cmaloney> b: Yeah...
[13:44] <cmaloney> I wish Twitter also had a feature where if someone starts with 1/ that it says "Use a fucking blog"
[13:45] <cmaloney> but that's just wishful thinking
[13:46] <mrgoodcat> I wonder if any clients batch together threads into a single post with a [read more] anchor
[13:47] <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
[13:48] <mrgoodcat> lol
[13:48] <mrgoodcat> i meant more for reading other people
[13:49] <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
[13:50] <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
[13:51] <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
[13:52] <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!
[13:53] <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
[15:02] <notlikethesoup> morning
[15:44] <greg-g> jrwren: is that his book that people were worried would kill his campaign if he won the primary?
[15:46] <jrwren> its an article he wrote in 1972
[15:47] <greg-g> link? I never read it :)
[15:47] <jrwren> greg-g: http://www.motherjones.com/wp-content/uploads/Man_and_Woman_0.jpg
[17:08] <greg-g> jrwren: That's a really weird article
[17:09] <jrwren> greg-g: it was '72. he was young.
[17:10] <greg-g> he was 31
[17:10] <greg-g> he's old now, remember :)
[17:11] <jrwren> old enough to know better :(   young enough to be stupid.
[17:12] <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"
[17:24] <cmaloney> That's my epitaph right there
[17:54] <rick_h> cmaloney: CHC tonight?
[17:55] <cmaloney> Yep
[17:56]  * rick_h might try to get down there after the boy's soccer game
[17:56] <cmaloney> Oh cool!
[18:08] <_stink_> where are you folks doing CHC these days
[18:25] <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
[18:36] <cmaloney> Yeah, that's where it's at
