| jelkner | scooper: are you here? | 14:33 |
| scooper | Been here ever since | 14:33 |
| jelkner | I'm in Puerto Rico | 14:33 |
| jelkner | The power went off, and I lost my connection. | 14:33 |
| scooper | just your private message on irc | 14:33 |
| jelkner | Since we both are in places with connection troubles, email is probably the best way to communicate | 14:33 |
| scooper | hahaha enjoy your vacation | 14:33 |
| jelkner | i am enjoying my vacation! | 14:33 |
| scooper | OK | 14:34 |
| scooper | I m enjoying my too | 14:34 |
| scooper | learning new things | 14:34 |
| jelkner | yesterday we went a town, Adjunta, that is installing solar power all over the town. | 14:34 |
| jelkner | i made some contacts | 14:34 |
| scooper | OK | 14:34 |
| scooper | Sound good | 14:35 |
| jelkner | i keep thinking about our need to build a small school that has solar power in Monrovia | 14:35 |
| jelkner | that is the only way we can get reliable, sustainable power | 14:35 |
| jelkner | i'll keep looking into that, and talk with the Supe when i see him | 14:35 |
| jelkner | anyway, you called this meeting, what do you need? | 14:35 |
| scooper | Sure, but current seem stable since I came on vacation | 14:36 |
| jelkner | great | 14:36 |
| jelkner | so, what did you want to meet about today? | 14:36 |
| scooper | One we shouldn't tell the interns to stay back for now | 14:37 |
| jelkner | what do you mean? | 14:37 |
| jelkner | Are you saying we can meet on Saturdays? | 14:38 |
| scooper | Your last message you informed me that you want the interns to wait until they all graduate right | 14:38 |
| scooper | My advice is that we shouldn't do that | 14:38 |
| jelkner | Can we meet on Saturdays? | 14:39 |
| jelkner | If not, we can't meet. | 14:39 |
| scooper | Programming is all about passionate | 14:39 |
| scooper | YEs | 14:39 |
| scooper | Yes we can | 14:39 |
| jelkner | How? | 14:39 |
| jelkner | I thought the generator was dead. | 14:39 |
| scooper | Yes | 14:39 |
| jelkner | I am happy to keep meeting on Saturdays. | 14:39 |
| jelkner | But only if everyone can connect reliably. | 14:39 |
| jelkner | I am *very* busy. | 14:40 |
| scooper | But it's time I too in provide | 14:40 |
| scooper | To keep this dream alive | 14:40 |
| jelkner | I was thinking we could set aside $50 each month for the purchase of a new generator | 14:40 |
| jelkner | Oh, don't worry about that, my dear friend, the dream is very much alive! | 14:40 |
| jelkner | To keep moving forward, we need to keep learning from our experience and make adjustments. | 14:41 |
| scooper | We need a minimum of 80 to repair that generator | 14:41 |
| jelkner | Like I've said many times, we have been moving to slowly to reach our goals. | 14:41 |
| jelkner | We have been moving, and I am very happy about that, but too slowly. | 14:41 |
| jelkner | I want to focus for the next term on Freena, Jallah, and you. | 14:42 |
| jelkner | Since UoPeople will speed things up. | 14:42 |
| scooper | We need to pick those who are really passionate about learning this thing | 14:42 |
| jelkner | yes | 14:42 |
| jelkner | and we need so *see* that they are passionate by: | 14:42 |
| jelkner | 1. The commits they make to their git repos | 14:43 |
| jelkner | 2. The level of thoughful questions they ask indicating they did a lot of study on their own. | 14:43 |
| jelkner | Those are the two things i look for | 14:43 |
| scooper | Sure | 14:43 |
| jelkner | How can you connect on Saturday without a generator? | 14:44 |
| scooper | What are see here is that Thomas , Jallah and see serious about this | 14:44 |
| scooper | The generator can be repair Jeff | 14:44 |
| jelkner | OK, like i said many times, you all have a budget of $650 per month | 14:45 |
| scooper | More over that generator is really economical. I Use a minimum of 5 gallon a month | 14:45 |
| jelkner | part of seeing how serious everyone is will be how well you can share that budget | 14:45 |
| jelkner | We must pay for classes for you, Jallah, and Freena | 14:46 |
| scooper | servicing and putting of oil | 14:46 |
| jelkner | I want Jallah and Freena to take two classes | 14:46 |
| jelkner | you will be taking one | 14:46 |
| jelkner | that is 5 * 60 = $300 | 14:46 |
| jelkner | this month | 14:46 |
| jelkner | that leaves $350 to fix the generator, buy fuel, and pay for transportation to the MCSS office | 14:47 |
| jelkner | i'll be sending you that when i get paid on Friday | 14:47 |
| jelkner | So you can tell me, my friend. | 14:47 |
| jelkner | If you say we meet, we meet. | 14:47 |
| jelkner | I am available | 14:47 |

| jelkner | Nice! | 14:49 |
| scooper | During this vacatin this what I been living on since my family I not around to disturb me | 14:49 |
| jelkner | When you are ready, what we need to do is get you, Adrian, Antonio, and Luke to talk about plans for our LibreOrganize customers. | 14:50 |
| jelkner | LoL | 14:50 |
| scooper | I want you to please check Heroku | 14:50 |
| jelkner | What do you mean? | 14:50 |
| jelkner | I know about Heroku. | 14:50 |
| jelkner | It is a web hosting platform. | 14:50 |
| scooper | YEs | 14:50 |
| scooper | With good CL | 14:51 |
| jelkner | CL? | 14:51 |
| scooper | Yes | 14:51 |
| jelkner | What is CL? | 14:51 |
| scooper | That make it's easy to deploy your site on their platform once you have an account | 14:51 |
| scooper | Command line | 14:51 |
| jelkner | oh, cool. | 14:51 |
| scooper | Just how you upload project in github it's almost the same with them | 14:52 |
| scooper | They are base in America, Califorina | 14:52 |
| jelkner | You should talk to Adrian about it, but they told me it was cheaper for us to host our own servers. | 14:52 |
| scooper | I send you the link | 14:53 |
| jelkner | no, scooper | 14:53 |
| jelkner | no need | 14:53 |
| jelkner | please understand | 14:53 |
| scooper | It in irc | 14:53 |
| jelkner | that to make this work, i need to stay in my lane | 14:53 |
| scooper | OK | 14:53 |
| jelkner | i'm a project manager, not a developer | 14:53 |
| scooper | OK | 14:54 |
| jelkner | i can't be responsible for figuring out how we deploy things | 14:54 |
| scooper | I will share with Aaron and Adrian for their views | 14:54 |
| jelkner | +1 | 14:54 |
| jelkner | and Toby too | 14:54 |
| jelkner | Excellent! | 14:54 |
| scooper | Jeff | 14:54 |
| jelkner | What i do, scooper, is meet with the team and help us all decided together what we do | 14:55 |
| jelkner | it will help for you to learn that too | 14:55 |
| scooper | Thanks alot you have encourage me to continue to do more | 14:55 |
| jelkner | you can't do everything yourself | 14:55 |
| jelkner | so you need to know who can do what | 14:55 |
| jelkner | and work with me to help guide the overall process | 14:55 |
| jelkner | it is great that for now you pick the stuff you want to learn | 14:56 |
| jelkner | and particpate in that | 14:56 |
| jelkner | but we need a team to develop over there | 14:56 |
| jelkner | not just you | 14:56 |
| scooper | I will keep learning Python still I'm 100% good | 14:56 |
| jelkner | great | 14:56 |
| jelkner | you can help Freena and Jallah with that when they get to that class. | 14:57 |
| jelkner | Which they will soon | 14:57 |
| scooper | This is not all about you but it will also transform the living condition of my family | 14:57 |
| jelkner | UoPeople has an *excellent* A.S. program | 14:57 |
| jelkner | Of course it is, scooper | 14:57 |
| scooper | The first term was really stuff for me | 14:57 |
| jelkner | You want to have a better life | 14:58 |
| jelkner | that is the purpose | 14:58 |
| jelkner | for all of us | 14:58 |
| jelkner | there is enough wealth in the world now that *no one* should be lacking basic needs | 14:58 |
| jelkner | in my view, we have an evil economic system | 14:58 |
| jelkner | that robs from most of us, and gives to the few | 14:59 |
| jelkner | but my goal is that all of us have what we need to live full, productive, creative lives! | 14:59 |
| jelkner | that's why i'm studying business | 15:00 |
| jelkner | so we can figure out how to start a business that will support you and the other members, and your families | 15:00 |
| jelkner | the best thing is that the skills you are learning will pay off | 15:01 |
| scooper | What are notice in my country most IT personal done know programming | 15:01 |
| scooper | sure | 15:01 |
| jelkner | a few do | 15:01 |
| scooper | Just a few Jeff | 15:01 |
| jelkner | so there is a great need | 15:02 |
| jelkner | what happens now is that a few people come in, mostly from India and Lebonon it seems, and start businesses | 15:02 |
| jelkner | so they get the wealth, not the workers in Liberia | 15:02 |
| jelkner | I'm hoping we can start a worker owned business in which all workers are owners | 15:03 |
| scooper | So true | 15:03 |
| jelkner | so those that produce the wealth get to share it | 15:03 |
| scooper | Example is the IT school call BlueCrest | 15:03 |
| scooper | They are very expensive | 15:03 |
| jelkner | right | 15:03 |
| jelkner | UoPeople is better | 15:03 |
| jelkner | and cheaper | 15:03 |
| scooper | far better | 15:04 |
| scooper | most cheaper | 15:04 |
| scooper | more cheaper | 15:04 |
| jelkner | So we found a path forward | 15:04 |
| jelkner | ok, i need to get back to studying, my friend | 15:04 |
| jelkner | do you need anything else? | 15:04 |
| scooper | But it's really challenges | 15:04 |
| scooper | NO | 15:04 |
| jelkner | I'll plan on meeting with you on Saturday, January 7th | 15:04 |
| jelkner | please tell everyone | 15:04 |
| jelkner | but let me know if you can't do it | 15:04 |
| scooper | Consider it done | 15:05 |
