[01:09] <shakes808> Has anyone ever messed around with Xamarin or Android dev?
[01:19] <cmaloney> nope
[11:32] <cmaloney> morning
[11:35] <rick_h_> morning
[11:39] <brousch_> Interview this morning. 3 hours long
[11:40] <Zimdale> Always the best kind brousch_ lol
[11:41] <brousch_> I've never had one even close to that length
[11:42] <Zimdale> Is it a tech interview?
[11:42] <Zimdale> I know that that is like the min for developer interviews
[11:43] <brousch_> Yeah
[11:44] <brousch_> It also has "senior" in the title. I'm sure that adds an hour
[11:58] <cmaloney> That's a bit of a slog
[11:59] <cmaloney> I had a half-day interview once for Jacobsen's. They gave me this bizarre test that was pretty much me working with instructions in this Turing-machine-like construct
[11:59] <cmaloney> Needless to say I didn't get that position (was for AS400 anyway so dodged two bullets).
[12:48] <cmaloney> https://rethinkdb.com/blog/rethinkdb-shutdown/
[12:48] <cmaloney> Dammit.
[12:49] <rick_h_> cmaloney: did you use that?
[12:49] <cmaloney> Never got a chance to use it
[12:49] <cmaloney> looked interesting
[12:57] <jrwren> open source will still be there.
[12:57] <jrwren> maybe you can start contributing ;]
[13:00] <cmaloney> Yeah, no doubt
[13:00] <cmaloney> https://jobs.mitalent.org/job-seeker/job-details/3937281/ <- I think I know what they're doing
[13:01] <cmaloney> Seems like a tech-stack salad though
[13:01] <jrwren> i've never herad of Cyrix data systems
[13:01] <cmaloney> http://www.cyrixdatasystems.com/
[13:01] <cmaloney> Consulting firm
[13:03] <jrwren> i wonder how much of rethinkdb could be implemented in postgresql with jsonb and NOTIFY
[13:05] <cmaloney> Could probably bash together a few techs together to get similar functionality
[16:52] <jrwren> Yes, I have a question. Why didn't you use MongoDB? MongoDB is a web scale database, and doesn't use SQL or JOINs, so it's high-performance.
[17:19] <cmaloney> Because data is sacred
[17:19] <cmaloney> and MongoDB abuses it like a teenaged boy abuses a sock.

[17:20] <cmaloney> jrwren: btw: https://philwestern.bandcamp.com/music
[17:21] <cmaloney> check in there to see a few goodies from the past from a little band called "Download"
[17:21] <jrwren> wat?!?! no wai
[17:21] <jrwren> cmaloney: did you see Ogre interviewed by a kid?
[17:21] <cmaloney> yeah way
[17:21] <cmaloney> No, I missed that
[17:22] <cmaloney> I've seen one where they interviewed Tom Araya of Slayer

[20:25] <wolfger> Oh. LOL. Wrong channel.
[20:27] <cmaloney> nice


[05:52] <m0nkey_> Morning all
[09:05] <daftykins> \o
[09:05] <daftykins> happy weekendings
[09:07] <zxm-pi> happy saturdayings
[09:23]  * daftykins returns with coffee and cereal
[09:27] <daftykins> 10 days on and a client hasn't picked up the phone to tell me a package arrived at their office, my my
[10:38] <daftykins> ooh i just spotted the first Synology NAS in my fleet offering the new OS, 'DSM v7.0' - don't think i'll risk anyone yet
[10:44] <zxm-pi> wait till 7.1 :-P
[10:44] <daftykins> heh yeah exactly
[10:44] <zxm-pi> or at least 7.0a
[10:45] <daftykins> looks like they've increased memory usage a lot with that new one, so i can't see it being a smart leap for the oldest in circulation
[10:46] <zxm-pi> if you wait about 3 months you'll hear all the good AND bad things it will do for you
[10:46] <daftykins> looks like they've already had some pretty crucial issues with samba, so that's not great given it's a NAS :D
[10:47] <zxm-pi> you'd have thought somethink like like that might, just might have come up in testing
[10:47] <daftykins> indeed!
[10:47] <daftykins> still, they're streets ahead of QNAP who are the masters of buggy NASs
[10:48] <zxm-pi> let us not forget wd mybooks :-D
[10:48] <daftykins> ooh yes, although those are quite a different class since they come ready assembled as a consumer device
[10:49] <zxm-pi> perffect for install and forget devices till you go looking for your data and find it's no longer there
[10:49] <daftykins> "thanks WD!"
[11:11] <zxm-pi> https://www.dangermouse.net/esoteric/ook.html
[21:31] <daftykins> wonder if there's any truth to this one - https://forums.theregister.com/forum/all/2021/08/06/on_call/#c_4310475
[21:39] <zxm-pi> easily possible. a lot of the big tech have a do things fast and fix broken things later philosophy

[08:13] <bignono1> gparted is not in 13.04?
[08:13] <bignono1> need to install?
[08:31] <bignono1> ?
[08:33] <bignono1> RIP
[11:48] <pauld> I downloaded Lubuntu 13.10 beta yesterday, to install on a Pentium 3 500 MHz, and after accepting changes for partition computer informed me that it would not be able to monitor changes on hard disk and propose cancel and ignore buttons.
[11:52] <pauld> I finally gave up... leaving computer unable to boot ... and I expect to try lubuntu 13.04 today, or later this week. Yesterday before all that, I had installed Antix without problems except that it looks a bit harder to use than I wanted.
[11:55] <pauld> Also, that was alternate version ... was not sure 256 Mb was fine for Desktop version.
[11:59] <pauld> I now see I was right: "Alternate ISOs are for low-RAM PCs. Computers with less than 700 MB of RAM are considered low-RAM computers."
[16:25] <lead0r> i am looking how to change the hotkeys, or keyboard shortcuts
[16:25] <lead0r> any help
[16:25] <lead0r> i just dld lubuntu 12.04 the other day for my netbook
[16:33] <phillw> lead0r: head over to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Keyboard for information on that.
[16:59] <lead0r> thanks pw
