@WinEunuuchs2Unix yes I find the bot very disconcerting when I write a meta question

Serg

can't believe my parents decided to make a huge argument just because their drunk heads wanted a cake and bread for sandwiches and i bought then wrong bread

un fscking believable

i can't even have new year's eve without feeling worthless and alone

Byte Commander

12:17 AM

Oh, don't worry.

You're not alone.

At least not alone being alone.

Serg

Yeah, at least i still have AU to go to, if nowhere else

Byte Commander

Actually I was trying to say that around me people are arguing all day as well, but what you said applies as well :)

Kaz Wolfe

@Serg yeah, you have your little wolfpack of ubuntu users here :D

Serg

:3

So how you guys are doing ? How's New Year so far (for those who are in new year already) or the Eve?

Byte Commander

01:28 here

We were outside in the yard blowing some more or less boring fireworks up for about 45 min, then came back in half frozen.

Hopefully I won't get a cold from this.

Serg

12:30 AM

Nice. We ain't got no fireworks, but i'll sure go smoke outside and watch them

Byte Commander

Some neighbors fired up some seemingly really expensive batteries, so watching was actually more interesting than shooting here too.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

12:43 AM

I just walked back from Safeway with dinner and a bus packed with people passed me heading downtown for festivities, music and fireworks. I went last year and wasn't planning on going this year but now... I'm feeling like a party pooper :(

Serg

Meh, make your own party - that won't be poopable

WinEunuuchs2Unix

1:05 AM

I just tried to install 17.04...talk about "poopable"... during boot "Unknown error code 30" about 6 times.... 5 minutes of purple screen cycling dots and then drops to tty and asks for Ubuntu Login ID and password, which of course don't exist...LOL

About the only good news about this saga is CTRL+ALT+DEL works to reboot.

Seth

1:18 AM

is it star something in chat time of year?

WinEunuuchs2Unix

This is some sort of NYE question I can't fathom. Sorry Seth :p

Byte Commander

1:35 AM

@Seth yup. winterbash2016.stackexchange.com/first-responder

Serg

Messaged a girl , like " Happy New Year !" She's like, "Oh, hey, I've problem with Ubuntu, kernel panic"

Gosh, it feels good to have friends who are computer-savvy like me

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I tried to post this comment: "Using Conky it will report 1 or 2 running processes out of 300 or so almost all the time. But the other 298 aren't necessarily "sleeping" per sae they just aren't running. A true sleeping process would have issued the "sleep 999.99" command which is unknowable. Many of the other processes are Daemons waiting for an event to occur. Your question can be improved by explaining WHY you need to accomplish what you are asking."

on this review question: askubuntu.com/review/close/660215 but am told "this is an audit". Now I don't know what to do???

@Seth Now I understand you need star +-12 hours New Years UTC for a nifty 2017 hat. You've been starred :)

Seth

@WinEunuuchs2Unix oh. thanks haha :P

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I starred you, Byte and Serg all at once... hope I don't lose all my hats for collusion :p

Serg

@ByteCommander is first responder hat specific to posting in chat ?

Because I posted an answer like an hour ago

Byte Commander

1:48 AM

read. description.

Videonauth

@Serg yes

post within the first twelve hours and get starred

Byte Commander

> First Responder
post a message in chat within ±12 hours of the UTC New Year’s begin that gets starred

Serg

Ah, i see

WinEunuuchs2Unix

So did you guys get hats or not?

Seth

yup!

Serg

1:59 AM

I didn't

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I didn't get a hat for being starred in chat +- 12 hours UTC day 0 (hint)

but I starred you Serg!

Serg

Probably my hat is on the way, just lags

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Yeah like my gold medal for 1,000 VTC's will be delayed.

Serg

@ByteCommander about the program. I think it might be possible to implement, but I think it would require you to be part of disks group. I'll try to play around with it, will see what alternatives there are.

I don't think it's worth posting a question yet, as I don't have any working solution, but it's up to you

WinEunuuchs2Unix

People are really down on 2016 in this chat room. I thought 2016 was a bummer when my Windows 7 died, but then I installed Ubuntu 16.04 and found the great Q&A on AU. I discovered I could help out others too and a wonderful new hobby started up. So 2016 was a great year!

Serg

2:05 AM

2016 was alright. It was more like roller-coaster , with whole lots of ups and downs. Best thing for me was that I went to China for the first time, and met my gf, and whole lot of other cool people.

Also the whole rep disaster and recovery thing. I kinda feel much better about it now. Although it took me more time to recover and gain more than I had, I actually have learned a lot in the process

And of course, python and indicators. That's like one of the coolest things I've done on AU so far

So, what's the tag plans for the new year guys ?

I think I'm gonna go into disk and hard-drive tags more. And security since Kaz apparently challenged me.

I still want my scripts silver, and later maybe gold. I'm not as concerned about it as I was about command-line

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Glad you have your [tag:New Years Resolutions] all set up :)

broken-tag

Serg

lol

Also, my hat arrived

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Oh I see a star above for 2016 not so bad... my hat is in the mail!!! thanks guys :)

Oh if you guys want to know, you get a hat for asking a question and answering it yourself. If the question gets three up votes and the answer gets three up votes you get the hat called "Egotistical Bastrd or something like that. I have my own Q&A with two votes on either side so I'm close: askubuntu.com/questions/866619/how-do-i-setup-keyboard-macros/…

Serg

Actually, i could get that one

I have a question which I found solution to, but never got around to posting an answer

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Well do it... we'll upvote both sides :)

Note to mods: 3 upvotes for a hat isn't the same as 400 upvotes for rep colllusion

Serg

2:20 AM

@JacobVlijm happy new year ;)

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Jacob is another Python expert isn't he?

Serg

Yep.

IanC

Woke up with thw fir

Fireworks, damn touchscreen

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Hey Ian... what's the temp in Brazil / Brasil?

IanC

I guess it's around 30C right now, not sure

WinEunuuchs2Unix

2:31 AM

Well you just got starred in chat so you'll be getting a 2017 hat soon :)

It's minus 7 here... feels like minus 11 according to weather channel.

Help I screwed up on this edit... Not sure how ctrl+alt+printscreen REISUB is supposed to be typed: askubuntu.com/questions/866557/…

Well, the Stack Overflow reputation reset to 0 for 2017 failed...guess what I'm fixing this week! EVERYONE GETS A REP RECALC FOR NEW YEARS!

William Christopher Dies: Father Mulcahy Actor On ‘M.A.S.H.’ Was 84

You freaking serious 2016?!

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Forgot all about that guy... I only remember hot lips.

Serg

I watched a few M.A.S.H. episodes way way back when I was like 8 in Czech republic . . . wow

WinEunuuchs2Unix

2:40 AM

Mobile Army Surgical Hospital... Russia has an airborne one in Syria just now.

35 people killed in Turkey at a night club celebrating New Years...That's what we should mourne is all the common poeple being slain not the celebrities who died of natural causes that profit by talking about common people sufferage.

IanC

Sorry, was on whatsapp for a second, so did the rep on SO reset?

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I think I got the first responder hat a little earlier :)

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Nope I'm still at .16% for the quarter... when it resets I'll be tied with @Serg for the first time :). haha.

Serg

I hope that guy is trolling. I don't mind mining all the rep again, but no thanks

WinEunuuchs2Unix

sorry... who is trolling?

IanC

Well, I was at less than 300 rep there, kind of hard to find answers I know that 3 other people didn't reply 10x faster there

Maybe because I'm a little slow at finding and answering questions

WinEunuuchs2Unix

2:51 AM

@IanC I know what you mean.... many times I'm like "oh I could have answered that one" at the end of the work day when it was already answered 6 hours earlier.

IanC

To be honest I'm a bit slow here too, my rep has been stuck at 580 for a while haha

WinEunuuchs2Unix

@IanC "Love surfing, programming and chemistry (see the relation? me neither!)" I see the relation. You love surfing AU. In the process of programming you met @Serg and built a chemistry :)

Serg

@WinEunuuchs2Unix O_o . . . nice

IanC

lol wtf

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Well you have 10 more points because I upvoted your only two questions which were pretty good. But you should post some answers in order to get more rep.

IanC

2:58 AM

Yeah, I probably need to get better at finding questions related to what I know better

Serg

@IanC Here's the thing: some questions which are really easy to answer, most people will pass. Or they take time to research . Take for example this one: askubuntu.com/q/866505/295286 Within 12 hours it was posted, no-one tackled , even though it's awfully simple

You also can go through old questions and post your solution. That's what I do a lot

IanC

I usually just browse the main page questions, which are often very specific about something I'm not familiar with

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I agree with that Ian

Serg

I dig up old questions and post alternative solutions with what I know: awk, python, maybe sed or look up how to do something in perl ( I'm not too proficient to write it from head yet). You can do same with Ruby

IanC

I think I'll do that, maybe use tags search to get a little more specific on the subject of the questions

Well, though I don't feel like sleeping after waking up to the sound of the sky blowing up, I gotta wake up in about 4 hours to go try to get the first surf of 2017 :)

WinEunuuchs2Unix

3:03 AM

Here's a trick Ian.... when a question has no answers, take the title, paste it in google search, strip out the extraneous words or reword them to be more meaningful and press Enter. If an answer pops up rewrite it into AU in simple English. 1/2 the time you'll get an upvote, 10% of the time you'll get accepted.

IanC

So, best wishes for this year to come @Serg @WinEunuuchs2Unix, talk to you later!

Kaz Wolfe

@WinEunuuchs2Unix and then flag it as a duplicate!

Serg

@IanC talk to you later. Happy New Year ! Glad to get to know you in 2016

WinEunuuchs2Unix

@KazWolfe Google search engine includes more than Ask Ubuntu :p

IanC

Oh, didn't see you there @KazWolfe, same wishes for you too (and everyone online that I can't see on the cellphone chat :p)

Serg

3:06 AM

@KazWolfe yes, exactly that. shakes hand virtually

IanC

@Serg likewise my friend! Glad I found this place :)

Kaz Wolfe

@Serg Let's turn Ask Ubuntu into "Ask Scripting Questions That Just Happen To Be On Ubuntu (And Should Probably Be Migrated To StackOverflow) And Dupevote Everything Else Because Literally Everything Else Has Already Been Asked"

Serg

@KazWolfe eh, that won't fly. There were attempts, but there's even post on meta that states all scripting questions are perfectly on-topic here

Kaz Wolfe

so i can ask scripting questions if they just happen to be on ubuntu.

so i can ask any question as long as my OS is Ubuntu.

got it.

Serg

Oversimplifying . . .but yes, generally, if you're using Ubuntu and what you wanna do is on Ubuntu, then sure - by all means ask

WinEunuuchs2Unix

3:11 AM

You are saying "How can I find a file containing ABC" should be a duplicate of "How can I find a file containing XYZ" or "How can I find files > 1 MB" should be a duplicate of "How can I find files > 2 MB beginning with the letter A"

WinEunuuchs2Unix

3:21 AM

@KazWolfe Remember how I accept answer for you 3 nights ago? I need one upvote on this question and one up vote on the answer to get a new hat :) askubuntu.com/questions/866619/how-do-i-setup-keyboard-macros/…

Serg

you're welcome

Pandya

Happy new canonical year 2017! /cc @Oli @Rinzwind @fossreedom @muru

Thanks @Serg (if that was you +1'ing)

Serg

@WinEunuuchs2Unix yes, that was. Also, see my answer - I posted too

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Nice answer +1... I read about xdotool a few times but wanted to stray from the herd this time :)

Serg

3:36 AM

@WinEunuuchs2Unix that's actually good question. I wanted to have something for key tags long ago. You just gave me a good reason to work on it

WinEunuuchs2Unix

@Serg Thanks... I got sick and tired of typing <kbd> </kbd>

Serg

That'll make my answers more productive and faster

Jeez it's only 8:35 pm and some community close to me downtown is setting off fire works like it's July 4th.

must be special for parents with young toddlers I guess...

does @NathanOsman or anyone have any recommendations for NoSQL in go? I just need something simple, preferably with a JSON like syntax.

Kaz Wolfe

ples no spem

WinEunuuchs2Unix

haha I read that wrong at first and had to reread

Seth

@KazWolfe I was just looking into that one. Have you used it before?

Kaz Wolfe

@Seth I've used it a bit.

Serg

3:40 AM

Kaz Wolfe

It, for the most part, is just a JSON-like storage structure.

Each DB holds collections, which are just a set of JSON "documents"

Seth

oh that sounds perfect. I've already mapped out all the data in JSON, but I decided file operations wasn't a good idea.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Kaz Wolfe

There isn't any "enforced" field, save for ID.

docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/data-modeling-introduction

and as with JSON, you can always do subdocuments and the like.

The real nice thing with Mongo is that they have amazing documentation.

Serg

Mongo kinda looks like javascript

Kaz Wolfe

3:44 AM

really, if you're brave, you can express all of a given Mongo database as a JSON file.

Seth

@KazWolfe that's always helpful.

Kaz Wolfe

the one catch is they "say" it's not JSON, but it really just is, and you can treat it as such.

just note you will always have that unique _id field, but you can set that to whatever.

they call it BSON for some reason.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

JASON BOURNE

Kaz Wolfe

see here: docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/bson-types

Serg

@WinEunuuchs2Unix what ?

Windows 3.1

3:47 AM

God Bless the U.S.A. by Lee Greenwood

►

Kaz Wolfe

just something to be aware of, @Seth, because it can do some tricky/funny things if you're not expecting it.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

@Serg The reason for "BSON".... You never read the Bourne Identity?

Seth

@KazWolfe thanks!

Serg

I've never read nor watched Bourne movies

3:48 AM

otherwise, mongo is really just a fancy way of ordering and storing JSON documents, and you're okay to treat it as such.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Happy NYE @Windows3.1 and @NathanOsman

Nathan Osman

@Seth Well, I sometimes just use JSON :D

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Same to you although we've still a few hours to go.

Kaz Wolfe

at least that's what I use it for, and it works really well when flatfiles just can't cut it.

Nathan Osman

Also. Guys.

The cake is a lie.

Kaz Wolfe

NO.

Nathan Osman

WinEunuuchs2Unix

@NathanOsman I tricked you I said "NYE" (New Years Eve) and not New Years :)

Nathan Osman

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I thought "NYE" was "New Year's Everyone".

@KazWolfe I finished the game :)

Kaz Wolfe

@WinEunuuchs2Unix tricking mods? that's risky...

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Well I guess it's open to interpretation like most things in life :)

@KazWolfe Didn't know Nathan was a mod, I would have asked him to ban you if I knew that :p

Kaz Wolfe

3:52 AM

oh, @Seth, watch out for mongodb authentication.

It can be a bit... annoying.

(like, very annoying)

otherwise, glad i can help.

toodles

Nathan Osman

@Seth also this may be what you're looking for: github.com/boltdb/bolt

Seth

@NathanOsman and what, just write it to/from files?

Nathan Osman

That's if JSON isn't good enough.

@Seth That's what tbot does.

If you're doing it from multiple goroutines, be sure to use a mutex.

That's about the only caveat.

Seth

Hmm. Ok.

I might start with that for now and look at moving it to a NoSQL database later. I don't have much time left and I don't need to perform more than 1 write and 1 read I don't think.

well, 1 write and 1 read per page hit. hmm.

Serg

@muru could we dupe this askubuntu.com/q/866619/295286 the other way around ? The suggested duplicate has answer that basically says "use autokey" but doesn't give no example. The one I linked is much better IMHO

@Seth Could you please merge the one i linked to muru above ^ and the one he posted as suggested duplicate ?

WinEunuuchs2Unix

4:07 AM

@Seth and @Nathan I agree with @Serg ^^^^

Serg

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Nathan is chat mod, he doesn't have mod powers over AU questions

( still a cool guy tho, just sayin' )

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Oh I didn't know the mod distinctions... thanks for correcting my erroneous ways :)

so if 99% of our chat is off-topic... what does a chat mod do here @NathanOsman :p

Serg

@WinEunuuchs2Unix to ban users who disagree with chat mod . . .so be nice to Nathan if you want to keep chatting here

muhahahah

TheXed

What is wrong with Maria Carey?

@WinEunuuchs2Unix no worries.

Serg

Maria Carey only wants 鱼 for Christmas

By the way, guys, here's little something for you for new year

python -c "print ''.join([chr(i) for i in [72, 97, 112, 112, 121, 32, 78, 101, 119, 32, 89, 101, 97, 114]])"

Nathan Osman

4:59 AM

@Seth If by page hit you mean HTTP requests - those are handled by separate goroutines.

So you may need to be careful.

If writes can happen during requests, you need mutexes.

(P.S. what's the plural of "mutex" anyway - "mutices"? :P)

TheXed

oh by the way...everyone...consider this your warning...there will be a leap second added to the end of 2016.

Serg

OMG, we're gonna have an extra second of 2016

Seth

@NathanOsman only 1 write will ever happen. Once the file is created it will never need to be modified, just read.

So I think I'm fine?

Nathan Osman

2016 is almost over and they're prolonging it with a #leapsecond?

Tweeted by nathanosman_dev on January 1, 2017 at 4:55 AM

@Serg yup...I wonder what hero 2016 will take from us in that last second of 2016.

@NathanOsman you're awesome. I'm not good at this programming stuff, but I would never have gotten this far without your help :)

Nathan Osman

Glad to help.

I try to be the person I wish I would have had when I first started.

Seth

Btw, found this cool book: gitbook.com/book/astaxie/build-web-application-with-golang/…

(That being said, I do appreciate learning a lot of things the hard way before discovering better methods.)

GitBook? Hey, that's pretty cool.

Serg

By the words of modly lord Seth I shall grant the title of "AU Hero" to Sir Nathan Osman. You can now claim your shining armor and knight sword.

5:26 AM

@Serg eww python2

Serg

@KazWolfe wat ? Python 2 is OK. Still better many other languages out there

Nathan Osman

But not Python 3 :D

Kaz Wolfe

but mah print()

Nathan Osman

You can still do that in Py2, BTW.

Kaz Wolfe

but py2 also allows print "x"

which is wrong.

Nathan Osman

5:28 AM

from __future__ import print_function

That will do it.

Serg

Why is it wrong ?

Also, what Nathan said

Nathan Osman

It isn't. It's just deprecated now.

Kaz Wolfe

you're calling a function without standard function syntax. it just feels wrong.

Serg

Meh, OK. Let me make it better for you, one sec

	python -c "import sys;sys.stdout.write(''.join([chr(i) for i in [72, 97, 112, 112, 121, 32, 78, 101, 119, 32, 89, 101, 97, 114]]))"

Kaz Wolfe

unnecessary.

Serg

5:29 AM

But it's a function

Kaz Wolfe

python -c "print(''.join([chr(i) for i in [72, 97, 112, 112, 121, 32, 78, 101, 119, 32, 89, 101, 97, 114]]))"

Serg

NAh, that's boring. Add the from future import to that

Kaz Wolfe

why? it's python3.

Serg

By the way, you guys figured out what it does , right ?

Kaz Wolfe

and i think python2 supports print() OOTB, right?

Lagavulin distillery

Lagavulin distillery is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Lagavulin on the island of Islay, Scotland. The standard Lagavulin single malt is 16 years old (43%), though they regularly release a 12-year-old cask strength variety, a Distiller's edition finished in Pedro Ximénez casks, and 25- and 30-year-old varieties. Lagavulin is produced by United Distillers & Vintners, which in turn is owned by Diageo plc. It is marketed under their Classic Malts brand. The name of Lagavulin is an anglicization of the Gaelic lag a'mhuilin, meaning "hollow by the mill". == The distillery == ...

Serg

the thing is that my friend who has account on oneplus site had an offer, and she messaged me like " hey, do you want a phone ? i got a good deal on it". At the time i was using BLU , fairly cheap one, and my old samsung s3 got stolen. So i was like ok

TheXed

@Serg yeah there not bad phones...

I'm personally happy with it. Especially that it's got big screen . Typing on that miniscule BLU was a pain
