01:04.09leviGood evening.
01:04.36leviSo, Microsoft joined Apache Software Foundation.
01:05.44bugQ!?
01:07.12bugQcool, what can go wrong? D:
01:07.31leviThey're submitting LGPL patches, too.
01:07.54leviFor PHP-related stuff.
01:08.09bugQwhee!
01:08.45leviBasically, they want LAMP to to be WAMP. :)

01:09.31bugQwell, this could be apache's big chance to tell them to screw off
01:09.33elg-chat if only
01:09.34bracif only fozz will back them up and use the right to know everything!
01:10.07leviLike Apache is going to say no to $100k.
01:10.35bugQthey'd be heroes if they did!
01:10.47leviNah, they'd be dumb idealists like the FSF.
01:12.07leviIf 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.
01:12.35leviI mean, this is what Open Source is all about.

01:13.26bugQgeeks for hire?
01:14.10leviWhat do you mean, 'geeks for hire?'
01:14.22bugQis that what OSS is all about?
01:15.01bugQcommissioned coders
01:15.31leviNo, it's about generating patches for the features you want and releasing them back to the community.
01:16.26leviDonating certainly doesn't hurt, either.
01:16.40leviOr do you expect all OSS programmers to do it in their spare time?
01:16.55bugQoh, I dunno.
01:17.32bugQlet me mull over this turn over of events over pizza
01:17.54bugQ[foods]one too many overs
01:19.01leviThe sheer amount of FUD that comes out of the Free Software community over Microsoft's contributions to Open Source is ridiculous.
01:20.57nick125I have a feeling they might have ulterior motives
01:25.30levinick125: You mean they're not donating and contributing code out of pure charity?!
01:25.39synichave any of the #utah regular nerds moved to Portland?
01:25.51syniclet me reask that.
01:25.56synicDo any of you live in Portland?
01:25.58leviOf course they have an ulterior motive.  It's to make money.
01:25.59synichaha.
01:26.02sontekI know a few guys that move from slc to portland, but none that were big regulars from here
01:26.23leviI know some people in Portland.
01:26.27synicsontek: are they in the tech industry?
01:26.37sonteksynic: yeah, they are programmers
01:27.30synicsontek: I need a job there.  Are any of these guys in a position that I could send a resume?
01:27.52*** join/#utah tiwula (n=lane@208.64.90.18.static.utahbroadband.com)
01:28.02sonteksynic: Yeah, I can talk to them
01:28.09sontekwhy are you wanting to go to portland?
01:28.09synicsweet
01:28.21synicuh, it's complicated.
01:30.59penodid cyc touch you in the bad place?
01:32.31leviHmm, California banned trans-fats in restaurants and bakeries.
01:32.50leviPackaged manufactured foods are exempt, though.
01:37.11sontektrans fats are the devil
01:41.28leviThis is interesting information about aging: http://www.thinkgene.com/prevailing-theory-of-aging-challenged-in-stanford-worm-study/
01:56.07bugQ[foods]so it the comment.

18:04.05elgwent to make ice cream and I had accidentally bought fat free half and half
18:04.17elgluckily i noticed before mixing it with other ingredients
18:06.04elgwhat to do with it? tastes like powdered milk. disgusting
18:17.06Sargunlol
18:29.35tensaisame thing you do with all fat free dairy products: throw them away
18:30.04Teneis it flammable?
18:30.50tensaiprobably not since it's a liquid
18:31.59tensailiquid water, that is. I suppose there are many flammable liquids.

20:44.07elgheh
20:44.24elg"Any publicity is good publicity, especially when it comes to Twitter." as he blogs about a "permanent hiatus" (what does that mean?)
20:47.44lakshmihi
20:47.47lakshmihei.
20:47.52lakshmiwus up?
20:53.34elgis he?
20:59.19levielg: Who said that?
20:59.33elgjesse
21:00.10elgguess it's not clear from that quote that he's calling for people to ignore twitter
21:00.57sontekwhats funny is most of his identi.ca posts today have been about twitter
21:01.33sontekhes like those senators that support legislation against gay marriage and then get caught in the bathroom with another man
21:01.58sontekI HATE IT BUT ALL I DO EVERYDAY IS TALK ABOUT IT
21:05.30leviHe's long since gone off the deep end into 'Social Software' myopia.
21:10.07elgi rarely read more than the first sentence or two of his posts
21:10.24elgmostly to see what it is he's going on about today, as a sort of morbid curiousity
21:10.30elgalso a way to know which things to steer clear of
21:11.02elgi'm making ice cream today with added pectin
21:15.40levihttp://www.fredvanlente.com/cthulhutract/pages/index.html
21:15.43brac[Cthulhu Tract | By Fred Van Lente and Steve Ellis]
21:15.50leviMmm, ice cream.
21:16.13leviDid you recently watch the Good Eats episode on ice cream?
21:18.47elgno, not recently, but we've been using that recipe for a long time
21:19.08elgbut we're not fans of peach jam and it's always got peach lumps
21:19.16elgso i thought I'd go with straight pectin this time
21:19.35elgi also rarely use vanilla beans
21:24.26leviI love using vanilla beans.
21:24.28tensaielg: I don't get the rolling technique for small cables
21:24.35leviGot a good deal on some from eBay.
21:24.43tensaido you end up with a pile of figure eights?
21:25.02leviSo do any of you guys use twitter or some other equivalent service?
21:26.59elgtensai: yes, which is very nice for doing that final wrap around the middle
21:27.13elglevi: yes, I use irc
21:27.20tensaielg: ok, so I do get it
21:27.59tensailevi: 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.
21:30.33leviI couldn't even figure out an interesting way to waste time with orkut, friendster, or facebook.

21:38.18elgand about once every couple of months I log in and reject all the brazilians who want to be my friend
21:43.36leviHeh, that 'friendfeed' thing Jesse was talking about looks scary.
21:43.52tensaiI was thinking about utosc and twitter might be useful for an event like that
21:44.55leviI'm not sure I'd want to create a feed of all the comments and micro-blog thingies I leave everywhere.  Whatever happened to context?

21:51.05leviI hate the Free Software Foundation so much.
21:51.59leviI would feel precisely the same if they were doing the same sort of thing against Microsoft or anyone else, by the way.  I'm not repulsed by this out of Apple love.
