mircea_popescu: aww shit mod6 only now i saw your whisper. listen, youj gotta
talk
to me here or in #eulora, i dun much read
the ingame chat.
punkman: asciilifeform: actually i'd love
to know what
that fella's job is << I do contract webwork, dataplumbing, (G)UIs, etc as it comes but it's a hassle dealing with derpclients. I also dabble in selling physical/digital products and maybe with some renewed effort and a few good people I'll make some shit stick. I don't really aspire
to having a job.
mircea_popescu: there are numerous romanian coder fellows from
the ro.
mircea_popescu: he's gonna
turn lead
to cunt juice and animate pubic hairballs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform since you've decided
to discuss magic for some reason. as if
THAT's what random derp making 30 an hour in portland is all about.

tell you what, one
time i separated 863
teenaged females into 10 groups of 5
tons each within a 1%
tolerance.
the process consisted of me walking
through
the group and pointing.
to my advantgage,
they were lightly dressed.
to my disadvantage it was night
time.
mircea_popescu: i was into high fantasy. really, still am, da fuck with all
the sci fi crap
mircea_popescu: problem is
the whole stack is in c++ and i'm not about
to manage language interfaces.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: provided of course ben manages
to not get himself fired from his own company over
the buffer incident :D
assbot: You rated user punkman on 27-Nov-2014, with a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: Hangs around in #b-a.
punkman: in
the interests of working with less wotless derps in 2016: You can rent punkman for $30/hr (can even get discounts if I like you), can operate git per your style guides, can't compile C with pen and paper.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless,
they're not worth actually paying money.
mircea_popescu: are you going
to argue
to
the merits or just gonna keep
trying
to squeak by on
technicalities ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you
think you can find any full hour of "work" on say github actually justifiably worth minimum wage ?
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why and wherefore brogramer gets
to make minimum wage. seriously now.
mircea_popescu: bitches gotta stand for
the whole day, yo! and get hit on by all
the losers
too!
mircea_popescu: i don't get it,
the chicks should bag groceries and make ~10.5 and
the dudes should dfick around with javascript and make more
than 9 ?!
mircea_popescu: 30 an hour ? it's scandalous. who
the fuck pays code monkeys over minimum wage ?!
trinque closes his laptop obediently,
told planes can't land otherwise.
mircea_popescu: i'm actually willing
to bet
that his buffer sat
there quietly, only flew once he hit enter.
trinque: I don't use erc, but apparently
there's erc-accidental-paste-threshold-seconds
mircea_popescu: that may be, but i dun
think it's a philosophy matter.
mircea_popescu: contained \n, only went once i pressed enter at
the end.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's
trivial
to have it set up properly. looky here : 1
punkman: clients should not auto-post when you paste, gives you a chance
to abort
mircea_popescu: this sort of
thing is what made phantomcircuit derp famous.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes is
there
the luxury of us educating you on matters of security in
that ?
gribble: Error:
The "Later" plugin is loaded, but
there is no command named "ben_vulpes" in it.
Try "list Later"
to see
the commands in
the "Later" plugin.
mircea_popescu: ;;later ben_vulpes you gotta learn how
to use
this buffer
thing.
mircea_popescu: if
they
take off currency controls, it's going
to go
to a 10 or something and
that's
that.
ben_vulpes: If
the notion appeals, let me know
that you're game. It would be fantastic
to get
the git exercise wrapped up by Jan 1, and yourself into
the office as soon as you can make it after your return from Indiana.
ben_vulpes: well with
the
team, and (should we extend an offer
to
transition from contractor
to employee) ascend our internal
talent ladder.
ben_vulpes: Should you demonstrate speed of self-education, willingness
to reach out for support if you need it, and
the ability and willingness
to cultivate your own beautiful little commit-trees, we'll offer you a contracting position paying $30/hr.
This rate affords us
the luxury of budgeting
training and study
time for you. Our hope is
that as you build familiarity with
the ecosystems and projects,
that you'll demonstrate productivity, mesh
assbot: Logged on 16-12-2015 23:25:11; punkman: assbot: Government announces end of currency controls, exchange rate unification << how's
that even gonna work
ben_vulpes: Please reach out
to me with any
technical questions you have, any questions about how Git works or how
to use it, or
to review your progress and provide feedback. We
take pairing and education seriously here, and are very happy
to extend
this support
to you during
this exercise.
ben_vulpes: We're looking for a really nice commit and merging history, so feel free
to
trash your working copies aggressively in pursuit of a nice finished product.
ben_vulpes: A huge part of
the work
that we do while building software is cultivating beautiful little
trees of commits with Git.
To
that end, we want
to resolve a concern on our end about getting you up
to speed on our favorite version-controlatron (Git), and so we cooked up
two exercises for you
to work
through over
the next few weeks (see attached).
ben_vulpes: Thank you for stopping by and meeting
the
team—we had a blast and hope you did as well.
