17:32.11harleypigHey, can someone doublecheck this rewrite rule for me?  RewriteRule   ^/SignUpNow$ /admin?cmd=showMediaPartnerSignup [L,NC,R]
17:33.40harleypigIt's supposed to take anything that goes to SignUpNow and redirect to the admin url
17:33.54goozbachI usally add a code to my redirects
17:33.59goozbachR=302
17:34.24harleypigah, good point.  thx.
17:34.30goozbachI don't recall what NC is for
17:34.35harleypignocase
17:34.37goozbachahh
17:34.41goozbachthen it looks good
17:34.57harleypigthx ... just wanted a second look before I modified a live server.
17:35.17sjansenWhat, no pre-prod testing server?
17:35.24sjansen~shame harleypig
17:35.25ibotShame on you harleypig!
17:35.25harleypigare you kidding?
17:35.39harleypigwe're working on it .. but it's not up yet.
17:36.28sjansenIdeally a pre-prod server should have exactly the same hardware as prod, but with virtualization today being so cheap, there's no excuse for not having _some_ form of pre-prod.
17:37.14harleypigwe do have *some* form ... but not for the apache configuration
17:39.11sjansenIf it doesn't have the same configuration and roll-out method as prod, it isn't pre-prod. It's development or testing but not pre-prod.
18:22.40unumshould I get a mazda rx8?
18:23.23jsmithunum: Sure!  Why not!
18:27.33*** join/#utah Zelut (n=christer@ubuntu/member/zelut)
18:27.54ZelutI have a perl question for anyone that wants to offer some advice
18:28.38elguse more $
18:29.29ZelutI'd like to hack something together that can parse this page http://tinyurl.com/dcjfg3 and help me find the latest revision of the file.
18:31.10elgif you know ruby, there's hpricot
18:31.31elgbut in any case, a simple regex should do the trick
18:31.41elgmaybe could even do it with wget/grep/sort
18:34.10ZelutI thought about wget but I don't know that it'd support globs/regex
18:34.22jsmithShouldn't be hard... order by date descending, and then grab the first link
18:34.28leviunum: I understand they don't get great gas mileage, but that they're fun to drive.
18:35.25elgjsmith has a good point. e.g. this link http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/c/chromium-browser/?C=M;O=D
18:35.44unumya my manager is selling hers
18:36.27leviMore practical than a typical 2+2 sports car, but not as practical as a sedan.
18:37.16jsmithlevi: But it's got a cool engine!
18:37.29jsmithlevi: It's not about being practical... (especially when unum is single, right?)
18:37.42unumI'm starting to think my practicality is a major factor in my singledom
18:37.50unumah jsmith beat me to it
18:37.58leviI'd love to have one of those engines in a smaller, lighter, convertible vehicle. :)
18:38.00unumI bought a malibu because it was practical
18:38.05jsmithunum: Chicks dig guys with fast cars...
18:38.07unumI bout a condo because it was pratical
18:38.29unumI became a computer programming because it was pratical
18:38.39elgyou became a gerund?
18:39.03Zelutelg: that is progress.. at that point its probably easy enough to do with some dirty bash
18:39.03unumand then i see all these poor guitar players(part time waiters) with wives...
18:39.06leviWas that painful?
18:39.47leviThere are plenty of computer programmers in here with wives.
18:39.58elgsome of them are even gerunds
18:40.09levielg: Are you a gerund too?!
18:40.17elgalthough, i probably used the wrong grammatical term, gerund is such a funny word it was worth it
18:41.19leviNo, turning a verb into a noun with '-ing' makes it a gerund.
18:41.41*** part/#utah Zelut (n=christer@ubuntu/member/zelut)
18:42.05unumbut did you all have sporty cars when you got said wives ;)
18:42.18leviI did.
18:42.24elgheh. if you count a 70s AMC Hornet that I bought for $500 sporty

18:44.15unumso that's what I need to do
18:44.57elgof course half the doors didn't work, the othe rhalf of the windows didn't work, the vinyl seats were split, it didn't want to start half the time in the winter
18:45.08elgbut it had bench seats!
18:47.03leviForget the Hornet, you want a Gremlin.  See, the chicks dig Gremlins: http://www.geocities.com/z_man401/gr/gremmy6.jpg

18:48.28elgsigh. this dissertation is just sitting here mocking me today
18:48.37elgdaring me to figure out what to write
18:48.42leviI hear they like to do that.
18:48.55unumso have you heard the song "stick shifts and saftey belts"?
18:49.02leviWho hasn't?
18:49.07elgya. bench seat ftw
18:49.14unumin it there's a line about how his malibu has a bench seat
18:49.17unumguess what?
18:49.22unumI got robbed
18:49.23elgyou got the shaft?
18:49.33unumyes

18:49.55elgare there even any bench seat cars being made these days? besides big ugly trucks
18:50.19jsmithelg: Does Buick still make the Park Avenue?
18:50.26jsmithelg: It'd have a bench seat
18:50.47leviHere's another Gremlin with a chick: http://nozama.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/04/16/gremlin1.jpg
18:50.48jsmithelg: The Pontiac Bonneville probably still has a split bench option
18:51.08jsmithlevi: Gremlin?  The AMC Hornet was more of a chick magnet!
18:51.13elgjsmith: ok, and besides cars that only grandmas drive
18:51.32jsmithelg: No... only gradmas drive cars with bench seats
18:51.37levijsmith: Yeah, well, find me pics of chicks with Hornets, then. ;)

18:55.04elgyou can't see the chicks in that picture because they all swooned

20:17.44sjansengoozbach: I'm curious how you got introduced to Punjabi rap.
20:22.08sjansenSo... reading through the backlog I'm getting the impression that my '95 Camry with rusting roof, missing hubcap, and broken antenna taped to the roof is _not_ going to improve my marriage prospects?!
20:23.04elgsjansen: does it have a bench seat?
20:24.33sjansenelg: No. But it is a coupe.
20:24.44elghmm. they want me to teach a PHP class this summer
20:25.52sjansen"Welcome to PHP 101 for Complete Morons. I'll be your instructor this week, assuming your self worth is so low you don't realize that you can drop the class for free this week."
20:27.54elgi don't know if they actually care that it's php or if they just want to offer something on web programming. i might try to get them to choose something else
20:28.35elgbut otoh, i assume the class is for nonprogrammers, and i'm having a hard time coming up with a language+framework that's as easy to dive into
20:30.51sjansenPython.
20:31.01sjansenDjango.
20:31.08elgruby. rails
20:31.17elgfine, but you have to teach a language and a framework
20:31.37sjansenIt might be easier to dive head first in PHP, but the bottom is so shallow you'll end up with a lot of cracked skulls and brain damage.
20:32.02Supaplexdain brammage? nevar!
20:32.50sjansenThey don't have to by Ruby or Python masters. Both languages are simple enough to basic apps can be written without systematically learning the language.
20:32.59elgi think it would have to be a lightweight framework that's easy to get into but backed by sound theory and would migrate to one of the grown up frameworks easily
20:33.01sjansenI suggest Python instead of Ruby for two reasons:
20:33.28goozbachSargun: yes, I like punjabi music
20:33.44goozbachsjansen: to answer your question, it was David Hasselhoff
20:33.46sjansen1) Python/Django focus on explicit over magic. While Ruby's Convention over Configuration is interesting, it makes it harder to understand.
20:33.50goozbachin an indirect way
20:34.18sjansen2) The Python community has a strong tradition of quality documentation. Django especially.
20:34.40goozbachhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES5_b90iU7c
20:35.23sjansenRuby on the other hand... come one, be honest, documentation has never been Ruby's strength. And with the recent influx of PHP refugees, there's a lot of bad Rails examples out there.
20:35.50elgi've never had trouble with documentation post-pickaxe
20:36.12elgwhich is available online free, and ruby-doc.org for stlib docs
20:36.23Jayce^goozbach: you scare me
20:36.44elgplus it's a class, I could require the rails book as a text
20:37.12elgif it came down to those two it'd probably go to rails because I already know it. otoh, it would be a good opportunity to learn some python which is on my list
20:37.24elgbut i hope to have a job by then and the point be moot
20:37.33sjansenIf you ask me, teaching anyone pure PHP these days is like teaching them assembly. Intellectually interesting, required for deep mastery, but hardly a practical starting point.
20:38.54goozbachJayce^: why?
20:39.14Jayce^your newfound taste in music is merely the latest example..
20:39.33Jayce^maybe I should start showing you some brasilian music videos via youtube..
20:39.57sjansengoozbach: That's rap?
20:41.18Jayce^http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuDFPBv7oAU    not sure if sjansen had the pleasure of hearing that band down there :)
20:41.53TeneI've had some issues with python documentation several times so far.
20:41.57Teneerm... django docs
20:42.46sjansenJayce^: Really? You really, trully, honestly think there's _any_ possibility that someone in Brasil in the late 90's didn't hear about Mamonas Assassinas?
20:43.51goozbachJayce^: the problem with brasilian music is that portuges is close unough to spanish I'm constntly translating it in my head
20:44.05goozbachpunjabi is something I don't know word one of
20:44.17Jayce^sjansen: well, they all died when I was still in my first area.. wasn't sure if you had :)
20:44.40Jayce^people acted even more crazy that when I was a kid in Seattle and cobain blew his head off
20:45.08Jayce^goozbach: then watch the videos..  look for "boca da garrafa" :)
20:45.10sjansenMamonas Assassinas is a classic case student in how much a mediocre band can be benefit from a well timed plane crash.
20:45.26Jayce^don't know if I can give them even mediocre..
20:45.38Jayce^they were a really bad gimmick, which does go over well down there..
20:45.38Sargungoozbach, you're the amateur linguist, right
20:45.46Jayce^they just crashed *before* burnout
20:46.14sjansenI'm not a big grunge fan, but even I find comparing Cobain to Mamonas obscene.
20:46.40elgi think he was comparing seattle to brazil ;-)
20:46.41sjansenCobain demonstrated real talent. Mamonas Assassinas on the other hand...
20:47.14Jayce^sjansen: was comparing the reaction..  was a crazy reaction in seattle when cobain died..  but even the town I was in went *nuts* beyond belief the day mamonas crashed

21:05.52sjansenTene: It's easier to understand if you speak portugues, but I think the general theme is obvious enough.
21:06.22sjansengoozbach: That'd be the Sertanejo part of the song. You should check it out, Sertanejo is good stuff.
21:06.45sjansenhopes to someday be able to add the festa at Barretos
21:07.19Jayce^serteneja, just another name for a bad bad genre of whining
21:07.44Jayce^brasil is one of the few places where you can cross rock and country, or rock and polka so obviously
21:07.55sjansenJayce^: This from someone who grew up in Seattle?
21:08.08Jayce^hey, we didn't mix those..
21:08.41sjansenYeah, but you built quite the industry around whining.
21:09.37sjansenBesides, anyone who thinks sertaneja is whining hasn't listed to it much.
21:10.23sjansenLike Country, most Sertaneja is more often about love than loss. More often about gratitude than need.

21:15.44sjansenAnother of my areas had a statue of a pair local sertanejo singers at the entrance to the city.
21:16.58sjansenTourists pay more attention to other parts of Brazil, but Sao Paulo really is a great state.
21:17.37sjansenGreat diversity. Great native culture.
21:17.49Jayce^there is no reason for tourism in minas gerais... unless you're catholic, a geologist, or a farmer
21:18.06Jayce^BH is like going to visit detroit...
21:18.11Jayce^or maybe chicago
21:19.01Jayce^http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUDK1kYBwx0
21:19.40sjansenI liked Chicago.
21:19.49Jayce^well, one of Skanks most famous ones is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftVoTWgSaQk
21:20.00Jayce^com o Minerão
21:21.53sjansenLike many good Country songs, many good Sertanejo songs tell a story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrzNLXt6uok&feature=related
21:22.13sjansenUnlike the poppy crap country they make too much of these days.
21:22.54Jayce^wishes he still had his Máfia Azul shirt
21:23.54sjansenJayce^: Re Skank: Nice. Haven't heard of them before.
21:24.07Jayce^sjansen: great band, I have a couple of their albums
21:24.17Jayce^mineiros of course
21:24.20Jayce^:)
21:24.28sjansenAt some point we'll be forced to mention Legiao Urbana.
21:24.33Jayce^of course..
21:25.08sjansenFor those unfamiliar, I'd describe Legiao Urbana as Brazil's answer to U2.
21:25.09Jayce^http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqfTibAi9j8
21:25.32Jayce^sjansen: yeah, pretty close
21:25.55Jayce^another one where the country was devastated when Renato died... though that time with good reason
21:30.42Jayce^sjansen, you listen to paralamas? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut9HmSo9DVo

21:35.53Jayce^I'd link you to skank's garota nacional, but you need a censured version :)

21:41.44SargunI can only imagine the worst
22:04.17sjansengoozbach's kids are going to be awesome!
22:07.12Jayce^goozbach: hope you weren't at Omni bank down there
22:09.18goozbachomni bank?
22:10.28goozbachheck no, we use a credit union
22:10.37goozbacha utah credit union to boot
22:10.46Jayce^omni just got shut down
22:11.11goozbachohh
22:11.23Jayce^FDIC friday :)
22:11.47fozzmoo:-D
22:12.05goozbachwe're just worried about flooding is all
22:12.17fozzmooflooding?
22:12.38fozzmooWeren't you experiencing a water shortage six months ago?
22:12.59fozzmooThe government needs to DO SOMETHING!
22:12.59sjansen"Clarification - We are NOT affiliated with Omni National Bank of Atlanta, nor have we ever been."
22:13.22sjansenfozzmoo: Stop living in the past.
22:13.52sjansenI mean, geez, try to keep up.
22:14.07goozbachDOO SOMETHING!!!1
22:14.30fozzmooOh, yeah, I blogged not too long ago about government doing something... http://fozzolog.fozzilinymoo.org/politics/2009/03/sowell-on-the-great-depression.html
22:15.17sjansenHeh, n/m. Looks like both Omni's are "participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program".
22:15.21goozbachI just re-organized my presentations page: http://blog.friocorte.com/presentation/
22:15.55fozzmoogoozbach: Nice.
22:16.02fozzmooI'm really enjoying Cobbler.
22:16.12fozzmooIt was really easy to set up and start using.
22:16.21fozzmoonow I've got to figure out some fancier stuff...
22:16.21goozbachit's pretty cool, I'm using markdown to write my presentation stuff
22:16.29goozbachI have a markdown apache handler
22:16.44fozzmoolike how to get dhcpd.conf set up for two networks.
22:16.58fozzmoogoozbach: You've converted me. I'm blogging all in markdown/smartypants now.
22:17.15elg~heart markdown
22:17.15ibotI ❤ markdown
22:17.40sjansenhttp://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200905/imf-advice
22:17.55goozbachI have a simple shell script which lists the directories in my presentation folder, pull out some metadata from each subdir, and generate an html include which I am including using mod ssi into my presentation page automatically
22:18.24sjansenI think that at this point it's safe to say the most people who claim to know anything about the economy, what is happening and what to do about, is either deluded or a liar.

22:19.26coldblue012Can anybody recommend a colo provider in the salt lake/orem/provo area?
22:19.32goozbachxmission
22:19.34fozzmoocoldblue012: XMission
22:19.38goozbachtier4
22:20.02coldblue012I found one place called Westhost but they don't do colo. I'll have to check those out.
22:20.04fozzmoogoozbach: I don't know if I'd recommend them... unless bandwidth isn't a priority.
22:20.13fozzmooWesthost is in Cache Valley.
22:20.21coldblue012I'll be relocating soon and I'd like to bring my 2u box with me.
22:20.23fozzmooAnd, you're right, I don't think they do colo- just managed hosting.
22:20.41fozzmooXMission is, by far, the most geek-friendly of any colo facilities.
22:20.45unumcoldblue012: move to murray and get utopia :)
22:20.57goozbachanyway, my cool little presentation sync solution is pretty nifty
22:20.57coldblue012What's in murray? FioS?
22:21.02goozbachI should blog about it
22:21.04unumcoldblue012: ya
22:21.06*** join/#utah {-} (n=sjansen@97-117-63-134.slkc.qwest.net)
22:21.07goozbachI should blog period
22:21.09coldblue012That's hot.
22:21.19unumcoldblue012: actually I take that back
22:21.58coldblue012Murray is a little far actually. I'll be working in Orem.
22:22.05unumI think they have it to
22:22.14coldblue012Who is the provider for that?
22:22.19unumprovo has something similiar called iprovo but not as good
22:22.30unumyou can through xmission, mstar and I'm not sure who else
22:22.31unumit's open
22:22.34unumso anyone can join
22:22.51coldblue012Awesome.
22:24.46{-}http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2009/03/new-home-sales-fell-41-in-february-2009/
22:27.20unumyep orem is one
22:27.34unumI'm not sure which cities have it built out yet
22:27.49unumword of warning it's mostly availiable only in houses
22:27.57unumbut we are all xmission fan here
22:28.08unumwe have to say that or the owner will hunt us down and kill us
22:28.59{-}Jayce^: Pandora just reminded me of a group. Titas.
22:31.08coldblue012unum: lol.
22:32.19coldblue012xmission's colo is a little pricey.
22:32.37coldblue012$230/month for 2u and 1mbps commit
22:35.22*** join/#utah sinuhe` (n=user@97-117-63-134.slkc.qwest.net)
22:35.56coldblue012At that price, I might have to do real work with the box and not just play with it.
22:42.34coldblue012Any opinions on C7 Data Centers?
22:43.47fozzmoocoldblue012: Center7 is the same as Tier4.
22:44.13fozzmooThey're one and the same now.
22:44.25fozzmooThey're not bad unless you want decent bandwidth.
22:44.41fozzmooI have a client that moved from T4 to XMission and saw an amazing jump in responsiveness for their apps.
22:44.42coldblue012What do you mean by that?
22:44.50coldblue012Ohh, by latency ?
22:45.19fozzmooYeah- I don't know if it's crappy equipment at T4, crappy networks they're connected to, or what.
22:45.28fozzmooXMission is, by far, the best-connected ISP in the same of Utah.
22:46.01fozzmooI think they've got something like 37Gbps from 4 different provides, 2 or 3 of which tier-1.
22:46.05coldblue012I'm not doing anything mission critical, just running Zimbra and some personal junk.
22:46.13coldblue012That's pretty sweet.
22:46.16fozzmooYou'd be fine at T4/C7, then.
22:46.34coldblue012I called them (t4) for a quote, we'll see how they stack up.
22:47.07coldblue012I'm in Michigan right now and only paying $75 a month, so jumping to 230 is a little much.
22:47.12fozzmooSure.
22:47.22coldblue012But you get what you pay for ;)
22:47.26fozzmooExactly.
22:47.54fozzmooThere are lots of lower end colos around, so finding one that charges under $100/mo should not be hard.
22:48.01coldblue012I could just leave it where it is and use remote assist if I need anything.
22:56.14JoshHfozzmoo, not close to 37Gbps, but should be a bit over 30 by year end
22:56.55JoshHcurrently nlayer 10 gig, AFS, xo, verizon, level3 gig
22:57.02JoshHstill the best connected though, afaik
22:57.23fozzmooOh.
22:57.28fozzmooMaybe I was thinking 27.
22:57.30fozzmooSorry.
22:57.50coldblue012That's still pretty decent.
22:57.52JoshHso 14
22:58.11fozzmooJohn told me there was a big 10Gbps set for Spring.
22:58.26JoshHtrying to get xo and level3 upgraded to 10gig
22:59.36coldblue012C7 wants 209/month
23:00.14fozzmooYikes.
23:00.32coldblue012Yeah.
23:00.35fozzmoocoldblue012: Check out these guys: http://www.psionyx.net/
23:00.57coldblue012I'm asking for 2U, 2 outlets, 16 IPs, less than 1Mbps commit on 95%...
23:01.05fozzmoothey say "Solutions start at $75/month."
