@MarkHenderson Congratulations.

@MarkHenderson Congratulations. I owe you one drink. Please mark it down.

@MarkHenderson Everyone home yet?

Mark Henderson

Thanks everyone

Not home yet, was only born 13 hrs ago and Angela lost a bit of blood, so she will come home tomorrow morning

jscott

12:44 AM

Hope each of you can get some rest soon. Baby making makes for tiring days.

Magellan

@MarkHenderson And if you think you're having a tough time, count your lucky stars that you're not an elderly lady that I met today. 93 now, she's a mother of 6 children, and when she was young she had TWO SETS OF TWINS a mere TEN MONTHS apart when she already had 2 and 3 year old toddlers.

Scott Pack

Oh dear. Things looking up otherwise?

BigHomie

@MarkHenderson Congrats, glad to see everyones okay

Mark Henderson

@magellan - 6 kids is just insane. 2 is where we hop off the baby making train

@scottp yeah everything is fine otherwise. Just hates being in the hospital and wants to come home

Scott Pack

@MarkHenderson Oh sure, I totally remember what that feels like. Huzzah!

Mark Henderson

12:47 AM

I'm at my in laws now with our 4 year old who is going to meet her soon

Jacob

@MarkHenderson I like the name and congrats again.

Mark Henderson

Thanks @jacob and everyone

Magellan

@MarkHenderson That's a big healthy girl. Weighs more than my 2 girls did combined.

Mark Henderson

Yeah my wife makes big babies. Our son was 4.3kg and 53cm

Magellan

actually, that's 1.75kg more than the larger of my 2 daughters weighs even at 2 months old.

Jacob

12:51 AM

@MarkHenderson It's not like she did it alone....

Mark Henderson

She did all the hard work on her own lol

BigHomie

@MarkHenderson Be glad you weren't Dec 25th 26th and half the 27th. 2nd one was born 5:30am Christmas day.

@MarkHenderson Our 1 year old was about 10 mins away from seeing her little sister being born

Jacob

@MarkHenderson Well yeah, making the baby is easy. Actually bringing it into the world not so much.

Magellan

@Jacob Ha. You think "bringing them into the world" is the hard part? Try the first 2 years after they're born when you won't be allowed to sleep for 5 straight hours.

Jacob

@Magellan I have no idea

but the birth can't be all that fun

BigHomie

12:55 AM

@Jacob All of them are different, plenty fun for dad typically ;)

Jacob

@BigHomie How is it fun?

BigHomie

@Jacob 10lb baby: Would you rather be pitchin or catchin?

Well, I can't speak for all dads, but I had fun, both times. Last especially, like I said; 5:30am Christmas Day, that was a very fun drive to the hospital. Besides that, I was there coachin wifey the whole time, cut the cord, took pictures, while my wife lay there in Biblically awful pain.

Roads were surprisingly empty at 4:00am on Christmas morning, not even a cop in sight.

@BigHomie also lol at "DDoS"

Scott Pack

4:04 AM

@FalconMomot Speaking of less than useless. Graylog2 pretty much requires syslog match exactly RFC 5424. Which isn't necessarily unreasonable until you realize that the only thing that does do RFC 5242 syslog is syslogd.

BigHomie

@PatoSáinz little late aren't you? D. Dos

Falcon Momot

@ScottPack heh

I can beat that perhaps

in mongodb aggregations, the only way to cast a value to an integer (ie. to stratify a scalar) is to... subtract the value modulo one.

Scott Pack

@FalconMomot Graylog2 pushes everything into mongodb and then into elastic search.

Falcon Momot

@ScottPack can we abolish nosql?

Scott Pack

Or something. I dunno, it's all wibbly wobbly devopsy.

Falcon Momot

4:07 AM

if this was being done using SQL I'd have been done hours ago.

(and that is what we will find with "devops" bullshit: increased costs and poor maintainability)

Scott Pack

I'm not necessarily hating on the idea of nosql necessarily. I just hate on weird apps that make themselves cool by taking a taste of everything off the bright and shiny buffet.

Falcon Momot

yes, and that has been around for a while

I know a lot of developers who seem to think the way to build an application is to put a bunch of libraries together with glue and tape.

the more the better, it seems.

Scott Pack

FTR I'm also all for a multitude of different database designs and formats. For example, Oracle has freaking badass performance when you're dealing with indexable fields. It just blows for free text searches.

voretaq7

you can buy full-text-search tools for Oracle.
. . . well maybe not you, but the prince of Saudi Arabia might be able to afford it if he sells a palace.

Scott Pack

@voretaq7 ${job[-1]} was a full on Oracle shop.

Oo....that feels nice.

@voretaq7 Oh heavens no. That's what the sysadmins and dbas were for.

Scott Pack

voretaq7

@ScottPack Bah! it should have at least 2 more years left! They just don't make digital recording appliances like they used to!

Scott Pack

I'm annoyed that I can't figure out how to get the signal strength out either.

Bob

@MarkHenderson @andrew smh.com.au/comment/… <== because that works SO WELL in the US, doesn't it? /s

Falcon Momot

4:51 AM

@ScottPack to be fair, I was writing a function called "get_analyzer_runtime_recency_strata"

it's just that I know that what I was doing would have been trivial in SQL, but in mongodb's CRUD it looks like a nest made of snakes.

Scott Pack

Oh, it probably is.

Although, the thing that really annoys me with saying "I know SQL so it would be easy" is "What flavor of SQL?"

Falcon Momot

@ScottPack any SQL which implements the basic standard.

it was uncomplicated.

like in terms of project-select-join-aggregate it was easy to make

mongo doesn't have that concept exactly, though it approaches it.

of course mongo renames a lot of basic concepts without changing them

"match" == "select" for instance.

Scott Pack

clearly

Falcon Momot

I also think about data problems in terms of temporary tables, which is something that is difficult to do with mongo

Scott Pack

I take back what I said earlier. This sounds boring.

Falcon Momot

5:00 AM

unbelievably so.

it's nothing more than me ranting "I don't like tool X because it is fundamentally and objectively broken."

hey @JennyD - how are you?

Kevin Soviero

I work Tue - Sat, so today is my Friday. I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow, and on Monday I have a meeting with an advisor at the local community college about taking classes this summer.

Jenny D

3:48 PM

@cole I'm good - managed to do an IKEA run with a minimum of aggravation, so that's good... and the sun is shining and it's getting warm, lovely spring day!

cole

@JennyD nice! Rainy day here and I'm working but oh well :)

Jenny D

@cole Will you at least get some other day off in return for working a Saturday?

cole

@JennyD Never do lol.

Proud of myself though, my ex (who's a straight woman and whom I moved to where I live/took the job I have for) - decided to text me after 9 months 2 days ago. Talk a bit but told her bluntly that I cannot talk to her because it isn't good for me. Which was really difficult but a huge step for me to actually stand up for myself.

Jenny D

@cole at least they should pay you well!

cole

@JennyD didn't even get a raise this year!

Because I left for 2 months - although the other guys on my team that do shit got their 2%.

Jenny D

3:50 PM

@cole That is really something to be proud of!

cole

But whatever, it is what it is.

@JennyD it was pretty tough for me, I then went into the bathroom at work and cried a little for the first time in 9 months. I feel relieved though now, and much better. At least her and I are on amicable terms if we run into each other (she lives a 30 sec drive from my apartment and works for one of my best friends)

Jenny D

@cole I think you are amazing to be able to do this - crying afterwards is not a bad thing, it's a way of letting the tension out

cole

@JennyD felt better to finally cry after 9 months.

Jenny D

@cole nod

cole

It is a bit interesting how much life has gotten significantly better in those 9 months. (Of course, I've been really, REALLY trying.) and sadly, hers has crumbled.

Kevin Soviero

3:56 PM

Sometimes I think people think too hard about things, and feel their emotions too much...

cole

@KevinSoviero some people are just sensitive, like myself, and that's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Jenny D

@cole From what you've said here it's obvious that you are really working on getting to a better place, and you should be proud of that too. Especially that you tried the other job, which takes courage, and then left it when it didn't work out, which takes both courage and the ability to let go of stuff that doesn't work.

@KevinSoviero I... can't really make sense of that.

cole

@JennyD she did say when I told her that - that she understood and also said, "You've really come into yourself, I'm proud of you."

Jenny D

@cole I'm kind of impressed by her too, it's not easy to hear that an ex doesn't want contact - it was gracious of her to answer like that.

cole

@JennyD yeah, I was too. She's growing up (will be 25 this year) but now that I can take a step back - she has a lot of work to do on herself and I can't shoulder that for her. She didn't do it for me, either.

Kevin Soviero

4:00 PM

@JennyD I'm just saying that people seem to be too fragile. They over think things like relationships, and don't pay attention to what really matters in life which is the happiness derived from yourself, not others.

Jenny D

@cole Nobody can do that for another person, and trying to will end up making one or both miserable

cole

I've made a real effort these past few months to cut out the toxic people in my life and make new friends that really care.

Kevin Soviero

I solved this problem long ago, I retreated into myself, and now view others as ships to pass in the night. I'm also on antidepressants and find myself acting more logical and rational recently due to not feeling much else.

Jenny D

@KevinSoviero I'm glad that you have found a solution that works for you. I don't agree with the sweeping statements made above, though.

MichelZ

@KevinSoviero popping pills to feel better helps?

cole

4:04 PM

Best thing I ever did was get off my medication and start doing things like working out, playing softball and spending time with friends.

Jenny D

cole

@JennyD LOL

Kevin Soviero

@MichelZ I'm a little bit of a trans-humanist in the sense that I think we should be augmenting ourselves with technology. Drugs are a tool like any other to make yourself better.

Jenny D

@MichelZ For some people, yes "popping" pills is what helps (although I dislike the wording). Not all depression is caused by outside influences; when the trouble is with your brain chemistry then changing that chemistry is what helps.

It's like pain. If you've got pain caused by a broken leg, then fixing the broken leg is obviously the long-term solution - but relieving the pain while it heals is not "popping pills". And when you've got chronic pain from something that really cannot be fixed, then again, "popping pills" is the right thing to do.

2

Kevin Soviero

@JennyD Exactly right.

Of course, it could be that everything I'm saying is bullshit, caused by the fact that I'm sitting in an empty, dark office while everyone else is home! ;)

It's creepy as hell here.

Jenny D

4:09 PM

@KevinSoviero That sounds unpleasant

I, on the other hand, am going out to dinner with my husband now in the lovely spring evening... see you later!

MichelZ

@KevinSoviero no lights? are they keeping you locked in a basement? nod three times if we need to call the police.

cole

@JennyD enjoy!!

@Iain Let's see, I'm at 5 to 8 minutes at a 3MPH walking pace, then running intervals (90 seconds running, 2 minutes resting, 60 seconds running, 60 seconds resting) then a 10 minute cool down at 3MPh walking.

That's 5kph in imaginary numbers

@kce You should add what your role is in this organization. Are you just a cog, or do you have some decision making power?

I see sysadmin at the top, but Sr? Jr?

@BigHomie - Good point. It's not really clear. I have an IT Manager but he's retiring. There's one other IT guy but we are peers.

Let me think about it and edit

BigHomie

okay
