[17:17] if anyone knows any python experts looking and wouldn't mind working for me please do share https://canonical.com/careers/2075752 [17:19] rick_h_: you are on ubuntu server team now? [17:21] jrwren: at end of cycle [17:22] jrwren: moving from Juju to Ubuntu Server team manager [17:22] just posted to the Discuss list. [17:22] <3 ty [17:23] yw [17:23] rick_h_: congrats! Sounds like a fun move. [17:23] jrwren: yea, eager to get to a bit more uncomfy spot and learn/play with server stuff again more [17:23] Seems like more of a core technology move. :) [17:24] yea, and back into python running cloud-init, curtain, and the ua client python projects [17:24] less golang :) [17:24] jrwren should apply. ;) [17:24] but a lot more launchpad and packaging [17:24] <_stink_> haha, was just about to mention jrwren :D [17:25] can't have it all [17:25] hah, jrwren can suggest rewriting it all in rust :P [17:25] I'm surprised Launchpad hasn't had at least a minor facelift [17:25] if I were looking, I'd consider it. I still love ubuntu server. [17:25] Nah, that's my suggestion [17:25] we are moving to it at work. YAY! [17:25] awesome! [17:25] from CentOS? [17:25] from arch. [17:26] JFC [17:26] heh, there are folks working on launchpad again (small team) [17:26] can you imagine... [17:26] right? [17:26] no [17:26] trying to run and operate a stable system on top of a rolling release distro? [17:26] wow, I miss arch on my laptop days but not sure about for real servers/cloud [17:26] how bout them snaps :P [17:26] they removed all their python2... we still have a ton on python2. LOL [17:26] arch: All the stability of a loaded gun on a wobbly table. [17:26] rick_h_: LOL. [17:26] God, snaps [17:26] snaps on top of arch ftw! :P [17:26] * cmaloney deletes application [17:27] I forgot about snaps [17:27] I love snaps for client apps [17:27] ^ proprietary client apps [17:27] I'll give you that [17:27] but find it funny that I might get behind them for "stable-ish" server apps on something like arch ll [17:28] meh, even for open source ones. I'd rather snaps that can be confined than debs from random ppa [17:28] I don't see the arch crew really adopting snaps [17:28] true [17:28] random ppa with pre-packaged python really makes me nervous sometimes [17:28] (blender) [17:29] I got an electric mower today. :) [17:29] Roybi 20" 3rd generation 6ah behemoth [17:29] now I might actually look forward to mowing for a sell [17:29] spell [17:29] hah, nice [17:30] One less gas appliance in the house [17:30] * cmaloney hates gas [17:31] flatpacks give more control to teh end user. [17:31] i'm rooting for flatpacks over snaps. [17:32] appimage. ;) [17:32] what's that? [17:32] battery mower or corded? [17:32] https://appimage.org/ [17:32] Battery mower [17:32] I like my battery mower. [17:32] I have a corded snowblower, which is awesome [17:33] <3 [17:33] Makes perfect sense for our lot [17:33] ugh, I really want a dual stage but can't justify the space they take up [17:33] what's that? [17:33] I tried electric for a power washer and hated it. I'm burning gas [17:33] 2-stage snow thrower? [17:33] oh. [17:33] i dont' know anything about snow throwers or powerwashers :) [17:34] sorry, should have said 2-stage vs dual stage [17:34] Only downside is it's a little small if we really get whalloped [17:34] heh, well I grew my driveway a couple of years ago now so have no shame, though I never used it this winter it was so mild and only shoveled [17:34] but that just means more trips outside [17:34] Yeah, I try to do more shoveling if I can [17:35] I got a new plastic snow pusher that was awesome this winter [17:36] https://amzn.to/2WIaFnY [17:36] really light weight and worked great in the mild winter we had [17:36] rick_h_: here you go: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Ariens-Power-Brush-28-28-in-177-cc-Two-Stage-Self-Propelled-Gas-Snow-Blower-with-Push-Button-Electric-Start/1000373259 [17:37] Heh, I think those are what the landscrapers use on the house across the street [17:38] hah ouchy that's a brute there [17:40] sweepy sweepy [17:41] yea, probably nicer/cleaner than my snow blower but the shoveling does pretty good as long as you keep up on it and don't leave things to melt/ice chunk [17:42] i shovel my driveway in less than 10 minutes most of hte time. [17:42] Yeah, that was my main issue this winter [17:42] although once this year it was HEAVY snow and it took a lot longer. [17:43] wow, 36" wide... that is great for the light snows. [17:44] yea, just push it and it's run by each way [17:44] much faster [17:52] BTW: CHC is online tomorrow [17:53] If y'all want to come. https://gettogether.community/events/4809/coffee-house-coders-regular-meeting/ [17:54] yea, I'll try to make it. I put it on the calendar [17:55] Sweet! [18:11] i can't come this week unfortunately [18:11] have a remote workshop with people in all sorts of timezones [18:11] No worries. If it lets out early feel free to just pop in [18:12] Trying to just keep some consistency in the week and be there for folks who need it [18:16] technically i should be done in time, but then I have dinner and whatnot [18:28] dinner. Feh [18:35] over rated!
