| 08:40.35 | ChoHag | If you try to enroll someone in your custody in school, day care or an overnight program you will be required to provide documentation that they are up to date on all their important vaccines, but only if they are a dog. |
| 08:41.53 | Leeds | woof? |
| 08:44.49 | ChoHag | But wait! Science is hard and that's unfair. Who has the time, the background or the ability to understand the fundamentals of immunology? |
| 08:50.33 | Leeds | you must all go immediately and vote for my mum in the 2010 Leeds Jewish Community Pride awards... http://www.ljwbprideawards.co.uk/profile.asp?profileID=10 |
| 09:39.07 | ChoHag | So when I stumbled across a book with the title "JavaScript: The Good Parts", I thought I'd take a look. |
| 09:39.15 | ChoHag | It is, as you'd imagine, a very slim volume. |
| 10:49.02 | ChoHag | sighs |
| 10:49.07 | ChoHag | Dell have agreed to replace the blades we know as www134 and www144. |
| 10:49.08 | ChoHag | We can't let them take blades with any code, logs or other data - so can you please format them and |
| 10:49.11 | ChoHag | ensure they are completely wiped. |
| 10:49.42 | jpds | Surely all your data is on a SAN? |
| 10:51.57 | ChoHag | Hahahaha |
| 10:52.00 | ChoHag | ha |
| 10:57.37 | ChoHag | Both servers are, naturally, still running their Apaches. |
| 10:58.09 | ChoHag | Yes Apaches. 10 on one and 7 on the other. |
| 10:58.11 | jpds | Why don't you have a naming scheme rather than dull names? |
| 10:58.18 | jpds | Ew. |
| 10:58.44 | *** join/#gllug Leeds (~richardc@pcd424154.netvigator.com) |
| 10:58.52 | ChoHag | I plan to migrate them to an extremely dull naming scheme eventually. |
| 10:59.15 | ChoHag | box-\d+.tld |
| 10:59.32 | ChoHag | Where tld is one word with no dots. |
| 10:59.49 | ChoHag | I haven't hit them with that one yet though. |
| 11:00.17 | ChoHag | "Both these servers are running a number of Apache instances. What is the ID of the job to take them out of commission?" |
| 11:00.30 | ChoHag | I don't even know why I'm asking because you can be sure there isn't one. |
| 11:26.26 | Leeds | tax time! |
| 11:28.41 | Leeds | no PAYE here, you submit your tax return by August-ish, get a tax bill a few months later |
| 11:29.44 | Leeds | my bill for this year is almost exactly the same as my monthly income - or to put it another way, effective tax rate: 8.3%! :D |
| 11:32.42 | Leeds | also, I do like the fact that they show their working on the back of the bill - total income minus allowances, calculated according to the flat rate and the sliding rate, so you can see what you'd pay under each |
| 11:35.59 | ChoHag | Other new guy> I need to install foo on a live server and it doesn't have outgoing internet access. |
| 11:36.04 | ChoHag | Our boss> Just use the proxy. |
| 11:36.55 | ChoHag | I'm not even sure if this place is worth salvaging. |

| 11:41.52 | dick_turpin | Afternoon all |
| 11:42.14 | bilarh | leeds: i hate you |
| 11:42.41 | bilarh | dick_turpin: do some leeds bashing for us, will you? |
| 11:42.50 | Leeds | bilarh: there are some positive things about the whole emigrating malarky, you know |
| 11:42.56 | bilarh | i know |
| 11:43.03 | bilarh | i brought my effective tax rate down somewhat myself |
| 11:43.13 | bilarh | from about 85% to a more manageable 60% |
| 11:44.05 | dick_turpin | I hate ASDA who's self service machine I have just left £5.00 in because it was stupidly busy and I rushed to get out |
| 11:44.35 | yaMatt | they do try pretty hard to remind you because people always leave their notes in there |
| 11:44.53 | antiphase | ASDA whois sounds like an internet service |
| 11:45.08 | Leeds | (of course, I'm not taking into account things like the lack of VAT) |
| 11:45.37 | yaMatt | but price of housing must be much more |
| 11:46.47 | Leeds | I pay less (about 10% less, but still) to rent my place in Hong Kong than my place in London is renting out for - and they are broadly equivalent 2-bedroom flats |
| 11:46.54 | dick_turpin | bilarh: Are we bashing foreigners again? |
| 11:47.32 | ChoHag | Looks to me more like foreigners bashing us. |
| 11:47.49 | Leeds | I'm not a foreigner, just a non-dom :) |
| 11:47.59 | ChoHag | Close enough. |
| 11:48.09 | bilarh | i'm european so i'm not a foreigner either :P |
| 11:48.24 | ChoHag | I may und up being the same eventually. SWMBO is from Ukraine and it's rather nice there. |
| 11:48.59 | dick_turpin | bilarh: You foreign git |
| 11:49.05 | ChoHag | Only 3 hours from Kiev to London (but about 12 hours from her city to Kiev) |
| 11:52.26 | bilarh | ukraine |
| 11:52.32 | bilarh | never even considered it |
| 11:52.35 | bilarh | isn't it run by the mafia |
| 11:52.40 | bilarh | ? |
| 11:52.51 | bilarh | of the type that will make you disappear rather than just stealing your pension? |
| 11:53.52 | dick_turpin | bilarh: I cant wait to discuss this new idea of work having to provide a pension, the gaffers here will have an apoplectic fit |
| 11:54.39 | bilarh | hasn't that been the case for ages? |
| 11:55.29 | ChoHag | No that's the government. |
| 11:57.11 | hali | we have a large outsourcing outfit in the ukraine, mostly in kharkiv |
| 11:57.21 | hali | pretty ok, a lot better than most Indian companies |
| 11:59.39 | ChoHag | Actually I've not paid much attention to Ukraine's politics. Obviously I'd do that before moving. |
| 12:00.04 | antiphase | Probably full of vodka swillers with fur hats |
| 12:00.05 | ChoHag | The country's nice and the people are mostly nice, unless you see them at work in eg. a shop or ticket office. |
| 12:08.28 | gregj | what does it mean if someone just called me 'snagless' ? |
| 12:08.47 | gregj | cos for the love of god, I have no idea what does it mean |
| 12:09.32 | dick_turpin | Hm it could mean you're pretty straight forward, never any snags |
| 12:09.52 | dick_turpin | But you hang around here so that cant be true |
| 12:10.26 | gregj | :=] |
| 12:11.16 | gregj | snagless is something I've heard in relation to cables |
| 12:11.23 | gregj | but thought it is more of a technical term |
| 12:12.01 | gregj | the guy who said that is not a technical guy at all. Altho he is a pilot, so there is some techical knowledge required, but not CAT5 cabling |
| 12:12.20 | dick_turpin | Ahahaha if I had any shame I'd feel a dufus now but then I look at bilarh's photo and revel in the knowledge there are worse cases than me |
