| 00:37.41 | prpplague | joe_bleau: whats cookin? |
| 00:55.13 | joe_bleau | Nothin, just work. Too much stuff going in this weekend, and I'm not quite done. |
| 00:55.25 | joe_bleau | Looks like I'll be finishing one project tonight, another on sunday. |
| 00:56.57 | joe_bleau | I really wish we could do a better job of scheduling. Too much stuff gets pushed back to the last minute. |
| 01:01.35 | joe_bleau | Scared to bite into that too deep--I'm not wanting a management position. |
| 01:02.08 | joe_bleau | But it sure would be nice to have a list of pending jobs. |

| 01:32.09 | prpplague | joe_bleau: yea i know how that is |
| 01:33.30 | joe_bleau | Makes me feel old. Takes the fun out and puts the work in. |
| 01:34.25 | prpplague | indeed |
| 01:34.55 | prpplague | joe_bleau: my problem is when i get on a time schedule that doesn't allow me to learn as i go and do a proper job at the work |
| 01:35.40 | joe_bleau | That feeling of cutting corners, knowing that it's wrong to cut corners, and knowing full well that cutting corners on the job is going to come back to bite you on the butt? |
| 01:37.52 | prpplague | yep |
| 01:38.24 | joe_bleau | I kind of hate to admit it, but sometimes I get a job that's a real rush. |
| 01:38.39 | joe_bleau | One of those "we don't care what it takes, can you have us something that works in two days." |
| 01:39.01 | joe_bleau | I find those oddly exciting, probably because I feel (not logically, of course) that I can skip |
| 01:39.15 | joe_bleau | the documentation and just do the fun stuff. |
| 01:39.38 | prpplague | yep, i have those as well, most of the time i can ekk by, but many of the times i feel terrible that i don;t completely have the grasp of what needs to be done |
| 01:40.09 | joe_bleau | I guess the other nice bit is that the customer is so hard up that they tend not to be too picky. |
| 01:40.50 | ds2 | I am getting to hate multimedia :/ |
| 01:42.33 | joe_bleau | I wonder why my Palm T3 won't turn on. |
| 01:42.46 | joe_bleau | Comes on when I put it in the cradle. |
| 01:43.13 | ds2 | battery foobar? |
| 01:43.25 | joe_bleau | Stays on when I remove it from the cradle. |
| 01:43.35 | ds2 | battery sensor foobar? ;) |
| 01:43.39 | joe_bleau | If I turn it off, the hard keys won't power it back on. |
| 01:43.57 | joe_bleau | Wait, now I'm getting a low battery warning. 80% a minute ago, now it's 10%? |
| 01:44.20 | joe_bleau | Maybe it just needs a charge. |
| 01:44.37 | ds2 | Quality rechargeable batteries! We know we can completely trust those hybrids to last and last ;) |
| 01:44.53 | joe_bleau | It's old enough that it could be near end of life. |
| 01:45.15 | ds2 | wonder if those replacement batteries from electronics goldmine would work in the newer units |
| 01:45.44 | joe_bleau | Haven't looked at old EG in years. Loved their catalogs when I was a kid. |
| 01:46.20 | joe_bleau | The actual items that I ordered never seemed as good as what I expected. |
| 01:46.28 | joe_bleau | Same with All Electronics. |
| 01:46.42 | ds2 | All Electronics is fun to visit |
| 01:46.43 | joe_bleau | BG Micro stuff always seemed better than I'd hoped for. |
| 01:46.49 | joe_bleau | I'll bet it is. |
| 01:47.02 | ds2 | only problem is it is IN LA |
| 01:47.06 | joe_bleau | Can you deal, or is everything priced as marked? |
| 01:47.25 | joe_bleau | I used to like hanging out at C&H. |
| 01:47.42 | ds2 | they are priced as marked if you get a just those things... I've had them write up a 1 liner and say how about XYZ total |
| 01:47.52 | ds2 | get just one |
| 01:48.13 | joe_bleau | I like places like that. |
| 01:48.38 | ds2 | everyone says good things about C&H but all I saw there was decepiet motors and other mechanical stuff |
| 01:49.14 | joe_bleau | I scored an HP 3466A 4.5 digit bench DMM for $10 or $20 one time. |
| 01:49.32 | joe_bleau | But I sold C&H more than I bought! |
| 01:49.46 | ds2 | are those the ones with the 4wire measurement option? |
| 01:50.06 | joe_bleau | No, that's the 3455 (which I also have) and the better 3456, 3457, 3458 units. |
| 01:51.59 | ds2 | okay enough figuring out broken sounds |
| 01:53.19 | ds2 | wonder if life would be better working in reverse engineering then forward |
| 01:54.01 | joe_bleau | Don't you want to build new things? |
| 01:54.20 | ds2 | sure. if it is a real "thing" |
| 01:54.41 | ds2 | it just isn't that fun doing 'reference software' |
| 01:55.31 | joe_bleau | Would you rather be doing win32 programming? ;-) |
| 01:56.03 | ds2 | digging ditches outside in Phoenix, AZ in July would be perferable... |
| 01:56.50 | joe_bleau | Wow. That's some seriously messed up reference software, then. |
| 01:57.00 | joe_bleau | You have my condolences. |
| 01:57.42 | ds2 | when you do a real device, there is always the argument -- it works within the requirements |
| 01:57.49 | ds2 | reference software is so broad |
| 01:59.30 | ds2 | getting paid to rip apart a EV seemed like so much fun |
