01:04.09 | levi | Good evening. |
01:04.36 | levi | So, Microsoft joined Apache Software Foundation. |
01:05.44 | bugQ | !? |
01:07.12 | bugQ | cool, what can go wrong? D: |
01:07.31 | levi | They're submitting LGPL patches, too. |
01:07.54 | levi | For PHP-related stuff. |
01:08.09 | bugQ | whee! |
01:08.45 | levi | Basically, they want LAMP to to be WAMP. :) |

01:09.31 | bugQ | well, this could be apache's big chance to tell them to screw off |
01:09.33 | elg | -chat if only |
01:09.34 | brac | if only fozz will back them up and use the right to know everything! |
01:10.07 | levi | Like Apache is going to say no to $100k. |
01:10.35 | bugQ | they'd be heroes if they did! |
01:10.47 | levi | Nah, they'd be dumb idealists like the FSF. |
01:12.07 | levi | If Microsoft wants to ensure that PHP and Apache work well with Windows and MSSQL, then doing what they're doing is precisely the right way to do it. |
01:12.35 | levi | I mean, this is what Open Source is all about. |

01:13.26 | bugQ | geeks for hire? |
01:14.10 | levi | What do you mean, 'geeks for hire?' |
01:14.22 | bugQ | is that what OSS is all about? |
01:15.01 | bugQ | commissioned coders |
01:15.31 | levi | No, it's about generating patches for the features you want and releasing them back to the community. |
01:16.26 | levi | Donating certainly doesn't hurt, either. |
01:16.40 | levi | Or do you expect all OSS programmers to do it in their spare time? |
01:16.55 | bugQ | oh, I dunno. |
01:17.32 | bugQ | let me mull over this turn over of events over pizza |
01:17.54 | bugQ[foods] | one too many overs |
01:19.01 | levi | The sheer amount of FUD that comes out of the Free Software community over Microsoft's contributions to Open Source is ridiculous. |
01:20.57 | nick125 | I have a feeling they might have ulterior motives |
01:25.30 | levi | nick125: You mean they're not donating and contributing code out of pure charity?! |
01:25.39 | synic | have any of the #utah regular nerds moved to Portland? |
01:25.51 | synic | let me reask that. |
01:25.56 | synic | Do any of you live in Portland? |
01:25.58 | levi | Of course they have an ulterior motive. It's to make money. |
01:25.59 | synic | haha. |
01:26.02 | sontek | I know a few guys that move from slc to portland, but none that were big regulars from here |
01:26.23 | levi | I know some people in Portland. |
01:26.27 | synic | sontek: are they in the tech industry? |
01:26.37 | sontek | synic: yeah, they are programmers |
01:27.30 | synic | sontek: I need a job there. Are any of these guys in a position that I could send a resume? |

01:28.09 | sontek | why are you wanting to go to portland? |
01:28.09 | synic | sweet |
01:28.21 | synic | uh, it's complicated. |
01:30.59 | peno | did cyc touch you in the bad place? |
01:32.31 | levi | Hmm, California banned trans-fats in restaurants and bakeries. |
01:32.50 | levi | Packaged manufactured foods are exempt, though. |
01:37.11 | sontek | trans fats are the devil |
01:41.28 | levi | This is interesting information about aging: http://www.thinkgene.com/prevailing-theory-of-aging-challenged-in-stanford-worm-study/ |

20:44.24 | elg | "Any publicity is good publicity, especially when it comes to Twitter." as he blogs about a "permanent hiatus" (what does that mean?) |

20:59.33 | elg | jesse |
21:00.10 | elg | guess it's not clear from that quote that he's calling for people to ignore twitter |
21:00.57 | sontek | whats funny is most of his identi.ca posts today have been about twitter |
21:01.33 | sontek | hes like those senators that support legislation against gay marriage and then get caught in the bathroom with another man |
21:01.58 | sontek | I HATE IT BUT ALL I DO EVERYDAY IS TALK ABOUT IT |
21:05.30 | levi | He's long since gone off the deep end into 'Social Software' myopia. |
21:10.07 | elg | i rarely read more than the first sentence or two of his posts |
21:10.24 | elg | mostly to see what it is he's going on about today, as a sort of morbid curiousity |
21:10.30 | elg | also a way to know which things to steer clear of |

21:15.50 | levi | Mmm, ice cream. |
21:16.13 | levi | Did you recently watch the Good Eats episode on ice cream? |
21:18.47 | elg | no, not recently, but we've been using that recipe for a long time |
21:19.08 | elg | but we're not fans of peach jam and it's always got peach lumps |
21:19.16 | elg | so i thought I'd go with straight pectin this time |
21:19.35 | elg | i also rarely use vanilla beans |
21:24.26 | levi | I love using vanilla beans. |
21:24.28 | tensai | elg: I don't get the rolling technique for small cables |
21:24.35 | levi | Got a good deal on some from eBay. |
21:24.43 | tensai | do you end up with a pile of figure eights? |
21:25.02 | levi | So do any of you guys use twitter or some other equivalent service? |
21:26.59 | elg | tensai: yes, which is very nice for doing that final wrap around the middle |
21:27.13 | elg | levi: yes, I use irc |
21:27.20 | tensai | elg: ok, so I do get it |
21:27.59 | tensai | levi: I tried orkut a lot time ago and couldn't see it as anything but a waste of time. since then I've ignored social networks as a rule. |
21:30.33 | levi | I couldn't even figure out an interesting way to waste time with orkut, friendster, or facebook. |
