  12. [00:12:47] <karstensrage> haha which one are you?
  13. [00:12:48] <karstensrage> http://www.rightscale.com/about_us/
  14. [00:13:06] <flaccid> im a backline engineer in support, so i basically do everything
  15. [00:13:18] <karstensrage> oic youre in santa barbara
  16. [00:13:19] <flaccid> um, 2nd from left at back row
  17. [00:13:38] <karstensrage> :)
  18. [00:13:40] <flaccid> thats HQ. i'm in sydney, australia - rep whole of south-east asia
  19. [00:13:48] <karstensrage> oh wow
  20. [00:13:57] <karstensrage> i like sydney, one of my favorite cities
  21. [00:14:29] <karstensrage> oh well n/m if you dont do java, i dont feel like getting into anything else atm
  22. [00:14:31] <flaccid> i'd prefer to live in SB haha
  23. [00:14:38] <flaccid> we do ruby mostly
  24. [00:14:48] <flaccid> and i'm a python guy, so i look down on it haha
  25. [00:15:40] <karstensrage> haha, i look down on all those scripty languages
  26. [00:15:52] <karstensrage> you do python cloud computing?
  27. [00:17:38] <flaccid> java is too much effort for no gain. great for UI related stuff, but i see no point in coding more
  28. [00:17:45] <flaccid> what is 'python cloud computing' ?
  29. [00:18:19] <karstensrage> oh i dont know
  30. [00:18:34] <karstensrage> java is great for backend stuff.. i dont do any UI
  31. [00:18:50] <flaccid> then i don't see the point
  32. [00:19:00] <flaccid> its always going to be less code in python
  33. [00:19:15] <karstensrage> always?
  34. [00:19:25] <flaccid> that was a generalisation..
  35. [00:20:02] <karstensrage> for pure language maybe, but for the existing libs and frameworks, you cant even begin to compare with java
  36. [00:20:10] <flaccid> back in the day it felt professional and scientific to do strongly-typed, large object implementations. now it just seems pointless
  37. [00:20:32] <flaccid> sure java might have more, but python doesn't seem to lack..
  38. [00:20:43] <karstensrage> yeah if youre doing a hot dog stand
  39. [00:21:34] <flaccid> if you have a look at the python core modules and then have a look at what is available outside of that, you'll find it covers quite a lot
  40. [00:21:46] <flaccid> it is very rare that i go to do something and there is not a module
  41. [00:23:07] <karstensrage> well
  42. [00:23:15] <karstensrage> we could get into a language war
  43. [00:23:19] <karstensrage> but not today :)
  44. [00:25:59] <flaccid> totally
  45. [00:27:47] <karstensrage> so why are you into openid, that doesnt seem to have anything with what you are doing IRL?
  46. [00:28:32] <flaccid> IRL?
  47. [00:28:43] <karstensrage> In Real Life
  48. [00:28:58] <flaccid> i wasn't aware that you had to work in the same thing you had interests in
  49. [00:31:09] <karstensrage> well you dont.. but you know
  50. [00:31:12] <karstensrage> why are you into it?
  51. [00:31:37] <flaccid> because of the problems it solves mainly
  52. [00:31:51] <flaccid> because its open and its a standard
  53. [00:32:22] <flaccid> i'm into dozens of things. i don't like to limit myself in IT.
  54. [00:32:33] <karstensrage> oh ok
  55. [00:32:55] <flaccid> a lot of people do. i do this. well if thats all you know, you are limiting so many things
  56. [00:33:07] <karstensrage> i have a big background in security.. and I took a peripheral interest in openid among a great many other things
  57. [00:34:34] <flaccid> rightio
