sudo failures are actually logged and, under certain circumstances, email alerts are sent.
It's all configurable in sudoers.
At least they didn't die of dysentery.
(Re Maine-to-Oregon-but-stopped-at-Connecticut.)
 
Jin
how high are you guys right now?
4
 
@Jin 28 floors worth
 
kill me
 
8:17 PM
the best I can do is "I'm Elmo and I know it"
 
room topic changed to SE Podcast: Livestream: youtube.com/watch?v=5IWS4o_o_74. It hath returned like tinnitus. Steaks are off-topic. (no tags)
 
i really wish we could just have David mic'd up 24/7
@DavidFullerton I'd be a huge fan of talking about BMA
I had a long talk with one of my buddies about it last week
 
it's going to be hard to top the last podcast intro
 
This entire thread (like the rest of HN) makes me so fucking sad: A Plan to Turn Engineers into Managers https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10001866
 
Jin
8:21 PM
"8 watching now"
 
this thread might be interesting, I'd love if we talked in more detail about stuff like that ^
there's a joke about replacing a minority for a minority
somewhere here
 
Really, be more awesome is just a system to align all ship dates for immediately after compensation reviews. For leverage.
 
Jin
.wtf
 
bees?
BEES?
 
8:24 PM
Light Brite was the best
We def should have a sand art station at the meetup
 
this is what senility sounds like
 
@JoelSpolsky I stole it
we can talk about my lite brite project
 
uber but for naming companies
 
pg wrote that post
last weekend
omg i hate being on this delay
 
@KasraRahjerdi just go put a glass to the conference room door
 
8:28 PM
i should just go be anil
i'm brown
 
@KasraRahjerdi and DASHing
 
STOP CRUSHING DREAMS @DavidFullerton
 
joel your whois is public
his address yes
 
8:31 PM
not all domains allow whois obfuscation, my .io domains show my address
 
Google Domains gives you free privacy for life
 
GANDI's whois privacy is free. <3
@animuson Jinx (albeit with GANDI vs Google).
 
huh fun fact .in doesn't let you do private
Due to registry restrictions WhoisGuard cannot be used with .asia, .bz, .ca, .cn, .de, .eu, .li, .ch, .fr, .sg, .com.sg, .in, .uk .co.uk, .me.uk, .org.uk, .nu, .us, .es, .com.es, .nom.es, .org.es, .com.au, .net.au, .org.au, .io, .nyc, .xn--3ds443g and .xn--6frz82g domains.
^ list of TLDs where you can't do private registration due to ICANN regulations/the TLD's regulations
 
@KasraRahjerdi aha that would do it
 
8:32 PM
Ashley Madison has an interesting profit model: sign up for free, pay money to get deregistered from the site (so you can't get caught later)
 
i like .nom.es
 
Abby is going to tell me I did an invalid Jinx once again. ;-)
 
nomnomnom.nom.es
@DavidFullerton fun fact: that clip art converts
we added a "SAFE AND SECURE" icon at Fito and our conversions went up 50%
 
we used McAfee's daily scanner thing at Fanatics, 20% sales boost
 
@KasraRahjerdi Fox News, Fair and Balanced
 
8:33 PM
Slide 42 is the best: "Zorro masks! This place must be secure!"
 
literally just an icon that updates to show the current day
 
yep
it makes people feel safe and sound**
like the taylor swift song
 
@KasraRahjerdi eh... my registrar still sets up a set of randomized fake credentials for my .ca domain
or at least they used to. I haven't looked in a while
 
that... is against ICANN regulations if it's actually fake
 
shrug
 
8:34 PM
they probably do a forwarder which is legal
 
 
Possible. Don't care about the implementation so long as my whois look up doesn't list my address.
 
@DavidFullerton Wait until you get to the end of that onboarding dock
o_0
 
life's not fair @Jaydles
 
this room is all staff
are there any users in here
 
8:38 PM
All staff everything.
 
HI @anildash
 
@Jaydles i'm sure they do "don't let my spouse see me" checking
similar to "don't let me current employer see me on Careers"
 
Podcast on the same day as demo day, might not be the best idea.
 
we have the same technology as Ashley Madison!
 
I wonder how many podcasts have contained the phrase "worse than any of our previous podcasts"
2
 
8:39 PM
Ashley Madison, but for developer hiring.
3
@df07 ARE YOU SIGNING UP FOR ASHLEY MADISON!?!?
4
 
ruh roh
 
hahahaha
 
Hey everyone! Oh, we went for Youtube this time? Cool.
 
VP of Programming
he chooses which NBC shows the fall line-up gets
 
@HarryCBurn yeah - i think it's much more reliable... so far at least
 
8:41 PM
MAKERBAE!
 
(It's your resident artist here ;D)
@abbyhairboat knocks wood
 
@KasraRahjerdi VP of Microwave Oven Programming
 
makerba.se/p/az475u/oyster jesus this is a full page
 
"i was never invited"
PAH
 
@abbyhairboat needz moar abby
 
8:42 PM
@ChrisJester-Young Only in internal chat, IIRC
:-/
 
@stevvve Of course, but doesn't stop in-jokey references anyway. :-)
 
even older than '14
 
OOI, is there meant to be an image with the podcast? I hope not.
 
@ChrisJester-Young I'm into it!
 
8:43 PM
@HarryCBurn nope, audio only
 
@abbyhairboat Ah, good, it's not broken!
 
don't worry guys, the list goes on for at least another 30 seconds (or however long your delay is)
 
Hah!
 
Medium the show, right?
 
it's still going
 
8:43 PM
Still going for me.
 
still going
 
Going on...
and on...
Man, this guy is productive!
and on...
 
Just say the things Anil has not done next time; faster
"Anil has not woken up in a NYC dumpster" done
 
dude third wave feminism brought zines back
 
@Haney By the time the list end's he'll have done the last thing on the list-- cured cancer.
 
8:45 PM
you old white men are so out of touch
 
I'm not old!
 
@Haney THAT YOU KNOW OF
 
what you see is all there is
 
> "you old white men are so out of sync [with the chat]"
 
8:46 PM
feels like beer time
 
I could really use a beer
 
yeah it does feel like beer time...
 
"that's nice"
 
Hey @Jason.
 
someone point at a fan
and say "that's a fan!"
someone do this for me
please
 
8:47 PM
i don't think there is a fan in the podcast studio
 
god dammit
i'm not a fan
 
except for anil
 
@KasraRahjerdi Bonus points for CPU/GPU/PSU fan.
 
@HarryCBurn Hello.
 
can I edit my Crunchbase profile on Makerbaes
my crunchbase is only like 4 years out of date and auto-spidered from some random other site
 
8:51 PM
I wish there's a way to sign up without using a Twitter account.
 
definitely doing that in the future, twitterless signin
 
@anildash Yay! :-)
 
Stackoverflow's pretty basic really, there's questions and answers.
 
and an API, chat system, review queue, moderation, meta sites... ;)
 
votes, flagging, comments
 
8:57 PM
Steak distribution system...
 
mobile apps, area 51, tag engine, localsede, comments, voting, flags...
 
It looks basic, but I'm fairly confident that there are a lot of tubes that make it look basic.
 
ROTISSERY BASEBALL?
 
Sounds delicious.
 
oh that's an actual thing
i was imagining baseballs on spits spinning in a grocery store case
 
8:57 PM
guys we should talk about my game
 
@Makoto Practical, delicious, and perfectly heater.
 
who wants to beta test my game
you play as a donut
 
@Haney a good 20% of it is just HandleSuccess()
 
Segregation on the non-productive people! Repel the subordinates!
 
@abbyhairboat: I would have never known that. I'd just have been thinking of rotisserie.
 
8:58 PM
my favorite elevator conversation was the time i rode up 26 floors with joel like 2 weeks after i was hired, and we talked about the bee gees the whole time
 
I learned last weekend about Ballapeno, a baseball mascot that is half jalapeno, half baseball bat.
 
i love using the term segregation
 
@KasraRahjerdi: If I earn a donut after the game test I'm in
 
@abbyhairboat The chat delay is so massive, I thought the chat got that phrase from you.
 
hahaha
 
8:59 PM
ask Joel his thoughts on Fog Creek
 
i'm trying to type my jokes slowly so they end up in chat more or less on time but i am TOO FAST
 
First one's always a throwaway.
 
aww Elle :(
 
@abbyhairboat Just learn qwerty, it'll slow you down real good.
 
TOOOOO FAST!
 
9:00 PM
:trollface:
 
To slow yourself down while typing: look down at your keyboard.
 
@Anil just needed somewhere to show off who made thinkup...
 
I think Makerbase might actually help me to finish projects.
 
man I wish these jokes were coming in in realtime
 
DAVID YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW ACCURATE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS BEING MY NIGHTMARE ARE
 
9:01 PM
@DavidFullerton talk to google
 
also hi @Kate
 
ooh hi @Kate!
 
Hiii Kate!!
 
Hello all of my favorite people!
 
Hi @Kate! I have no clue who you are, but hi! :P
 
9:02 PM
@Kate You should totes be on the podcast next
 
@Kate There is a disturbing lack of your starring @DavidFullerton's chat posts.
 
we can hear about YOUR experiences with ashley madison
 
i've had a lot of luck so far
 
@Alexa it'll be like those episodes of the bachelor when they invite all the contestants' families on the show
 
9:02 PM
@Kate that tweet was... wonderful
 
"so @kate... tell us about the real david"
 
Dang, I need an IFTTT type tool to auto-SMS me when a podcast is going live... missed most of it :-(
 
haha spouse podcast
 
@scunliffe only about half, we started very late
 
also Taco
 
9:03 PM
roooo
 
THRICE
 
ok thanks!
 
WHY WOULD YOU NOT SAY THRICE ANIL
 
because nobody says thrice
 
OMG MISSED THRICE OPPORTUNITY
 
9:03 PM
it's easier to say than "three times"
next time.
 
"Squire! Thrice hath my stallion exhausted!"
 
easier syllables wise, but not easier in terms of the cognitive overhead of remembering to say a different word than your habit
 
Please no, @anildash. Please no.
 
hey @D.G. :)
editor david, everybody
 
hey david!
 
9:05 PM
I don't exist. Hush.
 
if you don't exist how does the david fullerton podcast episode 001 exist
 
AND episode 2
 
This is the magic and mystery of David Fullerton.
 
SO YOU'RE SAYIN' THERE'S A CHANCE
 
9:07 PM
aww remember the "time to find a new magic gif to use" game
#MEMORIES
 
YEAH @Jaydles: Make him choose a favorite child
It's a parallels of tubes.
When you see a newspaper article about something you know, you think the 'journalists' are idiots, then you turn the page and see an article about politics or economics or whatever and think they know what they're talking about.
 
yup.
 
@JasonPunyon confirmation bias
or I suppose, reverse confirmation bias
 
ARE YOU CRAZY SAYING "PIXELS"?
We're gonna get DMCA'd
 
9:16 PM
"Shine up the pixels", eh? I'm using that one for something.
 
software will be distinguished by HCI
 
got quiet in here
 
Human Computer Interaction is the crux; great apps are those where people intuitively can use and they're easy/pleasurable
 
Jin
@DavidFullerton i haven't recovered from the nice things you said about me
2
 
I've learned that one of the biggest parts of a "good design" is ensuring that "Sensible Defaults" are set. Nothing ruins a UI design worse than a form with no decent defaults set where I have to pick everything!
 
9:21 PM
examples: Sonos is epic
 
Jin
product design has tiers: why would people use this [service/product] > how is their experience while using the UI > aesthetics
 
@abby where are we on time? when did we actually start with Anil?
 
code is suffering
 
@DavidFullerton we're about an hour in now
a little under
 
iPad and Star Wars, not incredibly popular subjects outside of nerddom
 
9:31 PM
@Jaydles i have been telling him that about pleated pants for YEARS.
 
@DavidFullerton Let's not forget you've always dressed up for the David Fullerton Podcast.
 
Haha, he's 4 years old. I'm okay if he's pretty mainstream.
 
@DavidFullerton there's the other side, go full couch and start wearing a bowtie to everything
 
Jin
@anildash what's your favorite Indian restaurant in nyc?
 
omg thinkup even used my train line in the pic ^
the shitty shitty shitty R32
 
Jin
9:35 PM
PF Chang's
