| jelkner | Good morning, replaceafill! | 11:02 |
|---|---|---|
| jelkner | I'm about to start class, but as you will be able to tell from your email inbox, I've been *busy* this morning! ;-) | 11:03 |
| replaceafill | jelkner, indeed | 11:03 |
| replaceafill | i hope we get somewhere with that | 11:04 |
| jelkner | let's see | 11:04 |
| jelkner | as long as we don't loose out | 11:04 |
| replaceafill | sure | 11:05 |
| jelkner | if there really isn't enough interest in CanDo, we'll just pull the plug and let it die gracefully | 11:05 |
| replaceafill | +1 | 11:05 |
| jelkner | but i feel obligated to provide support if there is interest | 11:05 |
| jelkner | and folks are willing to pony up for the modest rate we charge | 11:05 |
| replaceafill | with new users still coming (reported by Glenda), i think they'll need support | 11:06 |
| jelkner | let's see if they really come through | 11:06 |
| jelkner | we should Dockerize CanDo sooner rather than later | 11:06 |
| jelkner | If we can bill for it, it could be something mjsir911 does | 11:07 |
| jelkner | since we could pay him | 11:07 |
| replaceafill | right | 11:07 |
| jelkner | he will learn a lot working with nick wheeler this summer | 11:07 |
| *** mjsir911 has joined #NovaWebDev | 11:10 | |
| jelkner | mjsir911's ears must have been burning ;-) | 11:13 |
| mjsir911 | ? | 11:13 |
| jelkner | oh, i was just mentioning you, and then you jumped on the channel | 11:14 |
| mjsir911 | oh yea, summer job | 11:14 |
| mjsir911 | It would be good practice for me to help with docker | 11:14 |
| jelkner | yup | 11:14 |
| mjsir911 | let me get jupyterhub configured and then once i understand the ropes ill try cando | 11:14 |
| jelkner | indeed, cando will be a much bigger pain | 11:16 |
| jelkner | oh, speaking of that, i had a great conversation with mattva01 last night | 11:16 |
| jelkner | (my regular thursday evening check-in) | 11:16 |
| jelkner | while a vpn like you proposed to him would be possible, we can much more easily, and effectively use cloud servers to do what we want to do | 11:17 |
| jelkner | so when you get to class at 1:40 pm today, i'll talk to you about that. | 11:17 |
| jelkner | mattva01 was recommending digital ocean, but i'm thinking linode looks better at the moment | 11:26 |
| jelkner | and i already have an account there | 11:26 |
| jelkner | i wrote replaceafill about pulling the plug on the $40 per month cando server we have running | 11:26 |
| jelkner | if and when i run SchoolTool quiz again | 11:27 |
| jelkner | it will be in a Docker container on a current version of ubuntu | 11:27 |
| replaceafill | docker all the things! :) | 11:29 |
| jelkner | yes indeed! | 11:29 |
| jelkner | oh, replaceafill, btw | 11:29 |
| jelkner | i got to talk to Jim Fulton at Pycon | 11:29 |
| jelkner | the ZODB is not dead yet | 11:30 |
| replaceafill | silence please, Jim Fulton is being mentioned... | 11:30 |
| replaceafill | :) | 11:30 |
| replaceafill | i loved how he said buildout and zodb are the projects closer to his hearth | 11:30 |
| replaceafill | two great pieces of technology | 11:31 |
| jelkner | he is working on a project that uses Python 3 to store objects in a Python 3 version of the ZODB, and simultaneously stores JSON objects in a RDBMS. | 11:31 |
| jelkner | so that they can be accessed with more traditional tools | 11:31 |
| jelkner | sounded interesting | 11:31 |
| replaceafill | the schooltool problem! | 11:31 |
| jelkner | yup | 11:32 |
| replaceafill | i get amazed how open edx/django theming solutions are still growing are are a pain to work with | 11:33 |
| replaceafill | when the zope people solve that problem years ago | 11:33 |
| replaceafill | solved* | 11:33 |
| jelkner | oh, btw, plone is still alive and well, apparently | 11:42 |
| jelkner | they had a booth at pycon | 11:42 |
| jelkner | paul flint was hanging out with them, since he is a devoted plone user | 11:42 |
| replaceafill | oh really? | 11:47 |
| replaceafill | i should have contacted paul in the past :D | 11:47 |
| replaceafill | i was really interested in plone, but never got a real customer :( | 11:47 |
| replaceafill | but yeah, that's a rock solid cms | 11:48 |
| replaceafill | it's only sin: it's not php... | 11:48 |
| jelkner | it's major grace, you mean! ;-) | 11:50 |
| jelkner | so the Data.fs is safely saved? | 11:50 |
| jelkner | if so, i'll turn off the machine when mjsir911 comes in this afternoon | 11:51 |
| mjsir911 | ? | 11:51 |
| jelkner | i'm not going to distract you during math class, mjsir911! | 11:52 |
| mjsir911 | k | 11:52 |
| jelkner | talk to you at 1:40 pm | 11:52 |
| replaceafill | jelkner backup finished | 11:52 |
| jelkner | replaceafill, i just filled out the web form on the powhatan website | 11:52 |
| replaceafill | uploading to shared drive | 11:52 |
| replaceafill | jelkner, web form? | 11:52 |
| jelkner | http://www.powhatancoop.org/ | 11:52 |
| jelkner | to contact them | 11:53 |
| replaceafill | ah | 11:53 |
| replaceafill | hey! | 11:53 |
| replaceafill | democracy! | 11:53 |
| jelkner | i told them i was with the NOVA Web Development cooperative looking to talk to whomever is responsible for CanDo support | 11:53 |
| jelkner | yes indeed | 11:53 |
| jelkner | we don't want to undermine them | 11:53 |
| replaceafill | +1 | 11:53 |
| jelkner | just figure out how we can work together | 11:53 |
| jelkner | they are doing facinating work | 11:54 |
| jelkner | actually creating an internet access coop | 11:54 |
| jelkner | i can't wait to talk to them | 11:54 |
| jelkner | nice, replaceafill, i already received an email from David Hitt at Powhatan Internet Cooperative | 12:16 |
| jelkner | i'll call him during my lunch break | 12:16 |
| replaceafill | cool | 12:16 |
| replaceafill | responsive! :D | 12:16 |
| *** mjsir911 has joined #NovaWebDev | 12:52 | |
| jelkner | ok, replaceafill, just got off the phone with Corey Hitt | 13:17 |
| jelkner | can you do a quick hangout? | 13:18 |
| replaceafill | jelkner, not at the moment | 13:18 |
| replaceafill | later today? | 13:18 |
| jelkner | ok, but i promised him an intro email today | 13:18 |
| jelkner | and i need to talk to you first | 13:18 |
| replaceafill | let me try to put what i'm doing in a decent state | 13:20 |
| replaceafill | so i can pause | 13:20 |
| replaceafill | jelkner, ok | 13:24 |
| replaceafill | ready | 13:24 |
| jelkner | give me a minute ;-) | 13:24 |
