08:01.34 | Leeds | are you sure of that? |
08:01.56 | morsing | Leeds: Yes! |
08:02.02 | morsing | Mmm... Chostelerol test! |
08:02.07 | Leeds | in that case, good morning! |
08:02.27 | morsing | Hey, I didn't say it was good! |
08:02.52 | Leeds | I am wishing you a good morning |
08:02.59 | morsing | Ahh... |
08:03.20 | morsing | Complicattions with the new job :-( |
08:03.31 | Leeds | oops :-( on which end? |
08:04.06 | morsing | Well, the guy who interviewed me had only been employed for 6 weeks at the time |
08:04.16 | Leeds | ugh |
08:04.18 | morsing | He has now resigned and left immediately |
08:04.29 | Leeds | http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4621158.stm |
08:04.31 | Leeds | ugh ugh ugh |
08:04.56 | morsing | Leeds: It doesn't sound like it's a good place to work does it? :-( |
08:05.02 | Leeds | not really, no |
08:05.12 | morsing | Leeds: Should I just leave it? |
08:05.55 | Leeds | no, I'd persue it with caution |
08:06.16 | Leeds | you didn't do the technical interview yet, I assume? |
08:06.30 | morsing | No |
08:06.46 | morsing | I'm also annoyed that my manager wasn't at the interview |
08:06.55 | morsing | I think there are some bad signs.... |
08:07.06 | Leeds | it does sound that way, yes |
08:07.25 | Leeds | ah well, you didn't quit your old job yet, did you? |
08:07.28 | morsing | No |
08:07.35 | morsing | But I want to! |
08:08.46 | Leeds | so, hand in your notice and you've got 13 weeks to find a new job! |
08:09.12 | Leeds | (advice may not be 100% serious, and no liability is assumed on the part of the advisor) |
08:09.42 | Leeds | (advice may also not be 100% silly) |
08:10.01 | Leeds | I told you I saw Tux on the plane back here, right? |
08:10.20 | morsing | No? |
08:11.37 | Leeds | on Virgin... they had a load a trouble getting the IFE up, had to reboot it, etc. - at one point they announced that "you may see a penguin and a load of text on screen - don't worry, that just means the system is starting up" |
08:15.26 | morsing | :-) |
08:16.28 | Leeds | anyway, I did indeed see the chubby little guy and a bunch of bash -x style boot information: "cd /seatapps" |
08:32.17 | morsing | 200! |
08:32.19 | morsing | :-) |
08:32.35 | Leeds | I should really get mine properly tested |
08:34.40 | morsing | Why? Chostelerol is over rated! |
08:57.41 | morsing | I'm aiming to get mine up to 200 |
08:57.45 | morsing | Sorry - 300 |
09:33.47 | morsing | Check it! |
09:39.03 | Leeds | yubnub |
09:40.55 | morsing | Where can I download maps for my navigation system? |
09:41.34 | Leeds | in general, for the UK, you can't |
09:42.15 | morsing | What about Denmark? |
09:42.16 | Leeds | which is what Steve's project - the one he needs mysql/apache/tomcat scaling advice for - is all about |
09:42.33 | morsing | Leeds: Will that install on my Navman? |
09:42.42 | Leeds | I confess that I've never had enough of a need to nagivate in Denmark to have investigated |
09:43.00 | Leeds | no, probably not - it's a nasty proprietary device and they'll want chunks of cash off you for maps |
09:43.49 | morsing | Leeds: I bought the system two days ago, it came with maps that are from July last year but even road built three years ago are not on there. |
09:43.56 | morsing | Can I complain about that? |
09:44.01 | Leeds | no |
09:44.08 | morsing | Why not? |
09:44.13 | Leeds | "no liability, no guarantee of accuracy, etc." |
09:44.19 | morsing | Surely you can demand up-to-date maps? |
09:44.25 | Leeds | you can complain, but you're not going to get very far |
09:45.04 | Leeds | they have to get the data - i.e. buy the data - then convert and republish it... there may be some updated stuff available to buy |

16:13.31 | wethrin | cawfy-time! |
16:13.46 | morsing | Cope: It's not *that* good! |
16:20.25 | morsing | In Perl, how do I match "volume A00244 is mounted" *and* pull the volume name out? |
16:23.52 | Cope | morsing: it enables me to run, in full screen, exactly the environment I used to run |
16:24.04 | Cope | morsing: ie it allows me to have linux on a windows laptop |
16:25.51 | stephen | morsing: /volume (.*) is mounted/, then access $1 |
16:28.31 | morsing | Cope: So does Cygwin |
16:28.45 | morsing | stephen: Thanks - you're a genius :-) |
16:29.19 | Cope | morsing: you don't say! |
16:29.50 | Cope | morsing: however, cygwin is not a 'corporate' product, with 'support' and 'licenses' |
16:30.16 | Cope | therefore massive companies such as verizon/mci will never ever authorise its widespread use |
16:30.26 | Cope | I also need admin privs on my laptop to install / use it |
16:30.31 | Cope | it also requires configuration |
16:30.44 | Cope | and is more clunky than exceed and less mature |
16:30.50 | Cope | whereas exceed 'just works' |
16:31.01 | Cope | and is a 'supported' (ie legal) application |
