replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ok, done, good morning11:32
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, what's up?11:33
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, good morning :)11:33
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I'm working with Keri to import members now11:33
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, and the processing time is very long11:36
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, you think it got stuck?11:36
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, possibly11:36
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I don't think it should take this long11:36
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, let me check the logs11:36
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, if it's not stuck. it's taking too long for it to be a good user experience11:36
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, mine is still processing now11:36
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, the server is not processing anything11:38
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and it seems like not event a importing task has been scheduled11:38
replaceafillnot even*11:38
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, that's an issue :/11:38
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, Keri tried twice11:38
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I'm trying now. I see it saying processing11:39
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes, i can see you accessing the url11:39
*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev11:39
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, but the process doesn't continue11:39
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, it smells like a wrong setup somewhere11:40
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, give me a moment to compare to our server11:40
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, +111:40
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ah! found it11:41
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, hhmm11:41
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, it'll take me a few minutes to make them match11:41
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, 10 minutes11:42
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, can you wait?11:42
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yup 11:42
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool, ping you in a moment11:43
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, great thanks11:43
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, could you retry?11:55
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yup I'll give it a shot now11:56
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i've enabled debugging11:56
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, in case you see the yellow page11:56
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, cool11:56
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, what does having debugging enabled mean?11:57
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, and it worked!11:57
replaceafillreplaceafill, that you don't get "oops" pages11:57
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ^11:57
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, you see the actual error displayed11:57
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, why not have that all the time?11:58
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, bad for the user to see the error?11:58
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, because it's a security risk11:58
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, ahh I thought that might be it11:58
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, you're dumping too much inner knowledge, sometimes passwords, etc11:58
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, okay so can you please turn of debugging now and I'll shoot Keri an email saying she can make the import?11:59
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool, hold on12:00
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, done12:02
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, cool ty12:02

*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev16:17
lelkneralfarozOnny, what's up?16:17
replaceafillACTION is back16:18
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, hey got a sec? just want to notify you of something16:20
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes?16:20
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I just got a call from Gallaudet, they said that they want us to bill them for hours that we work16:21
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, and that they won't be able to pay the $5,000 upfront16:21
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ouch16:21
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, they have agreed to $100/hour16:21
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, can we say no at this point?16:22
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, hopefully it ends up being okay in the end16:22
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, we could still say no...16:22
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, although there is still the chance to make some money here16:22
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, we're just unfortunately waiting for them to give us access and then tasks16:23
*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev16:23
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, but 10k are not guaranteed16:23
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, that is true16:23
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, have you let jelkner know?16:24
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, if we don't do the Gallaudet thing, that means we need to make a big push to sell tendenci16:24
jelknerjelkner is here now16:24
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, no I haven't told him yet, just got the call 30 min ago16:24
lelkneralfaroahh true16:24
lelkneralfarojelkner, you here?16:24
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool, he's here :)16:24
lelkneralfarojelkner, you see the conversation about Gallaudet?16:25
jelkneri did16:25
jelkneryou're the folks who need to decide, but i think turning away work at $100 per hour is really bad business16:26
lelkneralfarojelkner, cool, well that's the news. on that, just wanted to pass it along.16:26
lelkneralfarojelkner, replaceafill I agree, I think we need to take it16:26
jelknerbureaucracies are always hard to deal with16:26
replaceafilljelkner, what if we end up billing 2 hours for september?16:26
jelknerthat's why we are charging the rate that we are16:26
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, jelkner even if it doesn't end up being 100 hours, the income will help16:26
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, replaceafill where we stand financially is that we have about $2300 in the bank (not the exact number) 16:27
replaceafilljelkner, lelkneralfaro less than 100 guaranteed hours doesn't seem worth it to me16:27
replaceafilljelkner, lelkneralfaro it was what would help us survive these two months16:28
jelknerit's your call, replaceafill 16:28
jelknerit's the gamble16:29
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, jelkner I don't feel confident to say that they will need the 100 hours16:29
jelknermy hunch is they will need a reasonable number of hours16:29
jelknerubuntourist should be brought in on that to confirm16:29
replaceafilli dont either16:29
replaceafillit's the 13th already16:29
replaceafilland we don't even have access16:29
jelkneri have talked to ubuntourist about this numerous times16:30
replaceafillit's going to be a lot of stress down the line16:30
jelknerthis is basically "par for the course" as far as he tells me16:30
replaceafill100/h for stress, told you about my OpenCraft gig, right...?16:30
jelknerthey do everything late and then get all desperate when the deadline approaches16:30
jelkneryes, replaceafill, and i understand you're already stressed today16:31
replaceafillto me, this is changing the deal16:31
jelknerto this is just piling on16:31
jelkneri get that16:31
jelknermaybe you need a day off16:31
replaceafillmaybe i need a week off...16:31
jelknerprobably not16:31
jelknera good night sleep and a sunny day tomorrow and the world will look different16:32
replaceafillheh16:32
jelknerin any case16:32
jelknerhere is my thinking:16:32
*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev16:32
jelkner1. Gallaudet pays us at a good rate16:32
jelkner2. They do pay (ubuntourist has been collecting for years)16:33
jelkner3. We should begin working on plan C while we wait16:33
lelkneralfarojelkner, plan C? I only knew about plan B16:35
jelknerlol16:35
jelknerplan C is a business loan16:35
replaceafill-116:35
jelknerreplaceafill, perhaps we should wait until saturday to talk to you16:35
jelknerunderstand this16:36
replaceafilljelkner, cool16:36
jelkneri have invested $50K in a dream16:36
replaceafilljelkner, but to be honest16:36
jelkneri'm ok if it doesn't come true16:36
jelkneryou can't count on that16:36
jelknerbut i am not ok being the one responsible for its failure16:36
jelknersuccess comes from following a good idea and rolling the dice16:36
jelknerwe have a good idea16:36
jelkneri know we do16:37
replaceafilljelkner, who is responsible for failure at this point?16:37
jelknerif we walk away, we are16:37
replaceafilljelkner, can *i* walk away?16:37
jelkneryou can't win if you we don't play16:37
jelknerif you walk away, you will be responsible for our failure16:37
jelknerit's your right16:37
jelknerbut it would suck16:37
jelknerwe can't do this without you at this point16:38
jelknersoon i hope we can build enough redundancy not to have a single point of failure16:38
jelknerbut now we still do16:38
jelknerand you, my dear friend, are it16:38
replaceafillbut you're willing to keep making loans in this position16:38
jelknerif we can get a business loan16:39
replaceafilljelkner, i'm just not confortable with that anymore16:39
jelknerit isn't my loan16:39
replaceafilljelkner, either it's you or nwd16:39
jelknerif the business fails16:39
jelknerthe business defaults on the loan16:39
jelkneri don't have to cover it16:39
jelkneri don't know if we can get such a loan16:39
jelknerbut by now we may be able to16:39
jelknernovawebdevelopment is an LLC16:39
jelknerthat means limited liability16:40
lelkneralfarojelkner, no we aren't :)16:40
jelkneroh16:40
jelknerreally?16:40
jelknerwe were when we started16:40
lelkneralfarojelkner, yeah we've had this conversation a few times... but I know repeating needs to happen16:40
lelkneralfarojelkner, no you never were16:40
lelkneralfarojelkner, always an S-corp16:40
lelkneralfarojelkner, s-corp's might be limited liability16:41
jelkneri think it is16:41
lelkneralfarojelkner, but there is research that needs to be done there16:41
jelknerlet's look into that16:41
jelknerso that's plan c16:41
jelknerplan d is replaceafill and lelkneralfaro find other work until we hit opportunity16:42
jelkneri was just asking zOnny how he is going to make his car payment this month16:42
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, what are you thinking if you don't mind me asking?16:42
jelknerwe have 4 people depending on our coop for their livelihood16:42
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, drop it and move on16:43
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, in my opinion16:43
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, we don't have the slightest idea of how many hours gallaudet will need16:43
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, if somebody could firmly say, oh yeah, last year it was X amount of hours16:44
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and the previous year, Y amount16:44
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, this would be different because you could estimate how short you'll be16:44
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and sure, they could pay a lot of money16:44
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, but if this was about money... we'd probably be doing something else at this point16:45
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i don't miss the 75/h days with chest pain to make deadlines16:45
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and gallaudet doesn't help the business16:46
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, other than help us sustain 2 more months16:46
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, that was the whole point of taking it16:46
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, we're not improving attendance or voting by *helping* them16:46
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i'd radther take the piece of... software we have16:47
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and start knocking doors16:47
jelknerok, replaceafill, that sounds reasonable to me16:47
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, it's the 13th and you and i haven't had paid16:47
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and that's fine16:47
jelknerbut i would urge you to at least run this by ubuntourist, lelkneralfaro 16:47
jelknerlet him know we are planning to do that16:48
jelknersince he has a relationship with Gallaudet that we don't want to harm unnecessarily16:48
jelknerso we should at least withdrawal politely16:48
jelknerthat would be good practice for you, lelkneralfaro 16:49
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, how about this. before we drop Gallaudet, I will try to nail down how many hours they have needed in the past16:49
jelknera nice "Thank you for considering us but under the circumstances we don't feel we can give you what you need."16:49
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, why don't we nail down first how many hours we need?16:49
jelknerlelkneralfaro, can you please talk to ubuntourist ASAP.16:50
jelknerreplaceafill is beginning to win me over on this16:50
replaceafilljelkner, :D16:50
jelknerif they are behind, it means stress16:50
lelkneralfarolol want to take this to hangouts?16:50
replaceafilljelkner, i was counting on stress16:50
replaceafilljelkner, 100%16:50
replaceafilljelkner, but at a 10k for 2 months rate, not 100/h16:51
jelknerif they won't get it together, we will be spending a lot of time dealing with a terrible situation16:51
jelknerso ask ubuntourist what he thinks16:51
jelknerthe advantage of pulling out means total focus on Libre Organize16:52
jelknerwhile we wait for Liberia of course16:52
lelkneralfarojelkner, for how long? with what money?16:52
jelknerI think we need a loan16:52
jelknerso lelkneralfaro should research that immediately16:52
jelknerbusinesses usually begin with loans16:53
jelknerwe have a year history, and an impressive website16:53
jelknerand a good idea and a decent track record16:53
jelknerwe have assets we shouldn't underestimate16:53
jelknerwe need to keep our 4 people who need us with roofs and bread16:54
jelknera loan to tide us over16:54
jelknerwe need to hit the circuit16:54
lelkneralfarowhat are our development goals?16:54
lelkneralfaroimprove events? improve other features?16:54
jelknerlelkneralfaro, an agile approach means we focus on customer needs16:55
lelkneralfarowhat do we need the software to look like for it to be the product we want?16:55
jelknerwe have two really good customers16:55
jelkneri mentioned that you should come to beginning of the ORA meeting help folks use meetings16:55
jelkneryou should visit AEA and help Keri use lists and voting and meetings16:56
jelknerwe get people to use our product16:56
jelknerand fix what's broken16:56
jelknerand make a big push for donations16:56
jelkneron libera pay16:56
jelkneryou told me that is working16:56
jelknerwe need it on our website16:56
lelkneralfarolibera pay is a bad platform16:57
jelknerthen pick a good platform16:57
lelkneralfaroyes I was doing research on another that I think may be better16:57
jelkneri thought you said libera pay is working16:57
lelkneralfarolibera pay it never ended up working for the team 16:57
lelkneralfaroalthough donations to an individual works16:57
jelknerahh16:58
lelkneralfaroand it can be used for that16:58
jelkneryeah, that's bad16:58
lelkneralfarobut the broken team suggested they may not have it together 16:58
lelkneralfaroand may be unreliable16:58
jelkneryou filed an issue, yes?16:58
lelkneralfaroothers already have16:58
jelknerok16:58
jelknerso look for an alternative16:58
lelkneralfaroyes I found one to explore already16:58
jelkneri'm going to polish the lightning talk i gave in philly16:59
jelknerit was very well received16:59
lelkneralfarobut the question about money right now remains16:59
lelkneralfarowe have $2300 in the bank16:59
jelknermjsir911's dad gave me good feedback on the way back from philly16:59
jelkneron how to make it better16:59
lelkneralfarorent is due in just over two weeks16:59
lelkneralfarowe'll be in a worse position come Oct. 117:00
lelkneralfaroif we focus on libre organize and fundraising it will take some time17:00
jelknerso the bottom line, lelkneralfaro, is what i mentioned to you before17:00
jelkneryou need to decide whether you really want to do this17:01
lelkneralfarojelkner, well I never agreed with how you framed the issue17:01
jelknerand then like they used to say in the FPL, "Hagale uveos, compañero!"17:02
replaceafillhuevos*17:02
replaceafill:)17:02
lelkneralfarojelkner, and I don't think that's a responsible thing to ask17:02
jelknerlook, my beloved son, we have no choice17:02
jelknerin this kind of game, folks who succeed are willing to do what it takes17:03
jelknerthe movie hollywood shuffle was made by a director who used credit cards to fund it17:03
jelknerwe can take a loan17:04
lelkneralfarojelkner, I hear what you are saying. but I'm sure we can gather a number of of stories of people who have gone bankrupt or failed trying to do the same thing17:04
lelkneralfarojelkner, if a loan is a possibility I'm okay with that. 17:04
jelknerso look, we have a meeting scheduled for 11 am saturday17:04
jelknerfind out by then what an s-corp is17:04
lelkneralfarojelkner, as long as my credit won't be affected17:05
jelknercan NOVA Web Development take out a load for say, $50K17:05
jelknerand then not make the members personally liable17:05
jelkneror perhaps since we have no capital assets17:06
jelknerthey won't lend us $50K17:06
jelknerbut maybe $10K17:06
jelknerwhich would keep us going while we wait for Liberia and develop and promote Libre Organize17:06
jelknercan we do that?17:06
lelkneralfaroI can do the research17:07
jelkneroh, i mean loan, not load ;-)17:07
jelknercool17:07
jelknerlet's resume this conversation saturday17:07
jelknerand i'll email ubuntourist and ask him to read this log17:07
jelknerif gallaudet comes up with a better offer of some guaranteed hours, we can ask replaceafill to reconsider17:08
jelknerif not, we follow his lead and drop it17:08
jelknerhis argument is sound that without something clearer17:08
jelknerwe are in for a rough ride17:09
jelknerthat doesn't help us enough to be worth it17:09
jelknerbut let's have ubuntourist weigh in17:09
jelknerare we good?17:09
lelkneralfarojelkner, one question17:10
jelknerisaac has a possible customer coming to see me now17:10
jelknerso i need to go17:10
jelknercan you email me the question?17:10
lelkneralfarojelkner, cool ttyl17:10
lelkneralfarojelkner, ill just talk to replaceafill 17:10
jelknercool17:10
jelknerhasta sabado17:10
jelkner11 am17:10
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, still here?17:11
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, yes17:11
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, want to continue this conversation later, and just take a break for now? 17:11
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, my question might lead to more conversation...17:12
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ask the question and then we decide?17:12
replaceafill:)17:13
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, :) cool17:13
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, so even if we say there is a high probability the 100 hours were going to come, as uncertain and stressful as they might be when they arrive, are you still leaning towards steering clear of the gig?17:13
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, not sure if this part of the conversation answer your question:17:16
replaceafill jelkner, i was counting on stress17:16
replaceafill jelkner, 100%17:16
replaceafill jelkner, but at a 10k for 2 months rate, not 100/h17:16
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i'm referring to the last sentence to be clear17:16
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, from the picture Kevin has painted about gallaudet i kind of know what is coming17:17
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, and i was fine until i realize it's not a formal contract17:17
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I understand. but, the 2 months always had 100/hr included. maybe that wasn't clear17:17
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, i always understood it was going to be 5k upfront 5k once their book is printed17:18
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, I was disappointed by that as well. I didn't expect that to happen. I was encouraged by that first contract that was signed but then all the mess came after17:18
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, the upfront 5k would give us "peace of mind"17:19
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, to last for the stress17:19
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yes I was asking for 5K upfront. 5K upon the completion of 100 hours17:19
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, yes because we were warned that they are hard to work with that's why i asked for the upfront payment17:19
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, but that has gone down the drain :/17:20
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, ok17:21
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, okay well I hear what you are saying. no need to continue...17:21
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, cool17:22
lelkneralfaroreplaceafill, alright. i'll do some investigating and thinking. talk to you later. 17:22
replaceafilllelkneralfaro, thanks, ttyl17:22

zOnnylelkneralfaro: is that fair ?18:06
lelkneralfarozOnny, depends... you have more experience than me with that. $5000 or $500 btw?18:06
lelkneralfarozOnny, if you ended up spending much more time on Amparo's site, that shows you how that goes18:07
zOnnylelkneralfaro: Oops! $500 18:07
lelkneralfarozOnny, I have had projects that took too many hours as well, where we have underbilled18:08
lelkneralfarozOnny, $500 seems okay for a quick set up. but they should know that all changes afterwards need to be billed hourly18:08
lelkneralfarozOnny, all the back and forth and small changes take a lot of time18:08
zOnnylelkneralfaro: yeah, we just talk about simple site18:09
