| 15:50.25 | romanovic | good evening! |
| 15:50.40 | romanovic | oh, that was yesterday. well, good evening today |
| 15:52.51 | aeryndunham_ | Hi! :) |
| 15:53.39 | aeryndunham_ | Yesterday was a really horrible day, so far today is marginally better |
| 15:55.15 | *** join/##lds joshontheweb (~joshonthe@183.89.35.194) |
| 15:57.28 | romanovic | that's good. what changed? getting a night of sleep? |
| 16:00.13 | aeryndunham_ | No, just... yesterday, instead of most people being nice with the occasional angry person, I had 9 irate people for every one nice one |
| 16:03.40 | romanovic | ouch. |
| 16:03.40 | aeryndunham_ | But so far, not bad |
| 16:06.34 | aeryndunham_ | I had a lot of free time today and I used it educationally, so I'm pleased with myself |
| 16:06.54 | romanovic | linux? or programming? |
| 16:07.28 | aeryndunham_ | first I learned git (mostly because I, uh, just today learned that git is not github) |
| 16:07.39 | aeryndunham_ | and now I'm halfway through a Sass tutorial and I'm in love |
| 16:07.41 | aeryndunham_ | loves web design |
| 16:14.06 | romanovic | ooh! git is exciting. I wish I had started using it much earlier than I did |
| 16:14.31 | romanovic | coincidentally, at work today I am writing up git documentation for my department |
| 16:15.07 | aeryndunham_ | It does seem very useful, even when working on things on my own |
| 16:15.11 | romanovic | my team has been using git for a while, but most of the other teams at the company are still using microsoft's TFS |
| 16:17.31 | aeryndunham_ | I've been working on Linux too but I'm having weird problems |
| 16:17.32 | romanovic | yeah I'll initialise personal projects as git repos even if I know I'm never going to share them with anyone else. It's nice never to fear losing work and being able to experiment non-destructively |
| 16:19.18 | aeryndunham_ | I still don't know what I want to do when I "grow up" (despite, numerically, being already grown :p ) but even if nothing comes of it I'm enjoying moving in a front-end web development direction |
| 16:19.46 | aeryndunham_ | wants to learn backend too but keeps getting frustrated by python and being drawn to wildly impractical programming languages :p |
| 16:29.21 | aeryndunham_ | I was also thinking the other day about how we're sailing around northern europe, and all these ports I'm visiting are probably full of bored missionaries (I hear Europe is tough), and how I'd love to take some out for lunch if missionaries are into babbling about the BoM with someone who isn't actually LDS, but I wouldn't even know where to begin to find any |
| 16:31.53 | romanovic | I've heard that about Europe as well. I'm sure the missionaries would love it :) |
| 16:34.05 | romanovic | That's a good question though! More difficult without a local address and phone number. I wonder if missionaries there all have cell phones, like they do in the US? |
| 16:38.37 | aeryndunham_ | They might, but I don't have one out here |

| 16:44.40 | aeryndunham_ | Anyway, I think it would be fun |
| 16:44.47 | aeryndunham_ | hello to resplin and joh |
| 16:44.54 | aeryndunham_ | * joshontheweb |
| 16:45.00 | resplin | Hello! |
| 16:45.17 | resplin | I'm sorry to hear about this group of passengers being less friendly than usual. |
| 16:45.50 | aeryndunham_ | Thanks! It |
| 16:46.00 | aeryndunham_ | it always odd how there can be definite trends in huge groups like this |
| 16:55.14 | aeryndunham_ | wow Sass is amazing |
| 17:03.48 | aeryndunham_ | ... I feel like I'm cheating that I love Linux Mint. I feel like it's too easy >.> |
| 17:06.01 | romanovic | That's ok! |
| 17:06.11 | romanovic | weren't you already using cinnamon on another distro anyway? |
| 17:08.38 | aeryndunham_ | I was trying to, yeah |
| 17:08.40 | romanovic | I think I'll continue using Mint as my laptop OS. I've had debian on my home desktop for years, and it has worked well, but a couple of times I've gotten into a weird package state where I couldn't fix the versions of packages I had installed |
| 17:08.46 | aeryndunham_ | but the VM just won't run right |
| 17:08.51 | aeryndunham_ | Mint just... works |
| 17:09.01 | romanovic | i just had to reinstall. but with Mint, i've never gotten myself into trouble that way |
| 17:09.22 | aeryndunham_ | I really enjoy opensSUSE but I keep messing it up |
| 17:12.18 | aeryndunham_ | I wish I could make a bootcamp linux partition instead of windows |
| 17:12.33 | aeryndunham_ | now that stardew valley is out for mac and linux I don't need my windows partition :p |
| 17:13.39 | romanovic | what is stardew valley? |
| 17:13.51 | aeryndunham_ | it's this silly game that reminds me a lot of harvest moon |
| 17:20.56 | resplin | I'm getting really frustrated with the KDE Fedora Spin. It's so buggy. I'm considering switching back to reliable Debian. |
| 17:22.53 | romanovic | resplin: I've never used any fedora spin. where's the bugginess coming from? KDE or Fedora? |
| 17:23.15 | aeryndunham_ | KDE is so gorgeous but runs terribly in a vm |
| 17:23.16 | romanovic | or are they both reliable but not friendly with each other? |
| 17:24.43 | resplin | I think the buginess originates with KDE, and Fedora not-so-helpfully passes it along every couple of weeks. |
| 17:25.05 | resplin | Debian is really good at actually fixing the known issues, and not accepting new stuff until it is actually useful. |
| 17:25.57 | resplin | I love KDE, but I am getting really tired of the constant problems ever since KDE 3.4. They are always rolling out something new without fixing what is broken. (A common weakness.) |
| 17:26.11 | resplin | adds Stardew Valley to the list of games he should buy for his kids |
| 17:26.57 | resplin | Too bad it is Steam only. |
| 17:27.05 | resplin | But I'll still buy it. |
| 17:28.29 | aeryndunham_ | it's not steam only |
| 17:28.45 | resplin | I don't see a place to buy a direct download. |
| 17:29.19 | resplin | Just a Steam key. |
| 17:30.45 | aeryndunham_ | i think gog sells it? |
| 17:31.27 | resplin | Fantastic! |
| 17:31.31 | resplin | My favorite place to buy games. |
| 17:36.08 | aeryndunham_ | The game is developed entirely by one guy - code, art, music. It's very impressive. |
| 17:37.14 | aeryndunham_ | Yeah, ok, Mint is wonderful. Everything just works and it looks great out of the box. |
| 18:06.14 | aeryndunham_ | lol I just found an article called top 10 reasons mormons should use ubuntu |
| 18:15.12 | resplin | aeryndunham_: That sounds like something you should share. |
| 18:20.37 | aeryndunham_ | It ended up being very disappointing |

| 18:21.03 | aeryndunham_ | https://prophetpaintings.wordpress.com/2010/12/23/top-10-reasons-mormons-should-use-ubuntu-linux/ |
| 18:26.38 | resplin | Yeah, pretty generic. Funny title though. |
| 18:27.15 | resplin | I was thinking it was going to be something like Ubuntu Christian Edition. |
| 18:28.54 | aeryndunham_ | haha yeah |
| 18:30.34 | aeryndunham_ | I mean, those were the reasons anyone should use Linux |
| 18:30.40 | aeryndunham_ | while other people do less searching Kolob :p |
| 18:31.07 | aeryndunham_ | Speaking of Kolob, this absolutely stunning arrangement of If You Could Hie to Kolob I forgot I had came on shuffle today |
| 18:31.35 | resplin | That is a great hymn. |
| 18:31.45 | resplin | Okay, time for my next round of meetings. Best wishes. |
| 18:32.13 | aeryndunham_ | Thank you!! |

| 20:28.33 | jsmith | resplin: You're back on IRC! |
| 20:28.47 | jsmith | resplin: I rarely catch you on IRC these days... |
| 20:36.26 | resplin | jsmith: I've been on IRC at odd hours for me. I've been on the road a lot, and I've been logging out of IRC in the evenings so I don't have any excuse not to study. |
| 20:36.38 | resplin | I've got two weeks of graduate school left. I just need to pass! |
| 20:36.43 | resplin | jsmith: How have you been? |
| 20:37.23 | jsmith | resplin: Good, good... job is going well, but the three hours of commuting each day (except Fridays!) is a little wearisome |
| 20:37.42 | resplin | That sounds exhausting. |
| 20:37.47 | jsmith | resplin: Right now I'm in Poland speaking at a conference, so I'm at an odd hour as well :-) |
| 20:38.12 | resplin | Which conference? |
| 20:38.44 | resplin | I've been waiting for you to give a blog post about your new role. |
| 20:39.53 | resplin | Do you interact with your team that uses my product? They spoke at our last conference. |
| 21:16.52 | jsmith | Nope, I don't have a clue which team that is |
