| dorion: | diana_coman this is my draft of the email reaching out to the rEFInd fellow. I'd appreciate a sanity check from you when you have a moment prior to firing it off to him. | [15:10] |
| diana_coman: | looks | [15:49] |
| diana_coman: | dorion: why so...hm, fitful (and do use a spellchecker or something!); and give the guy first some time to react at all, first step is a more relaxed hi in and then depending on reaction, it moves forward one way or another; also, did you check with trinque as he was saying iirc he'll contact this guy, did he get around to contact him? | [15:58] |
| ossabot: | (eulora) 2020-01-05 mircea_popescu: say hi ? | [15:58] |
| diana_coman: | dorion: that convo linked from eulora might be of interest to you re MP's "say hi" | [15:58] |
| dorion: | diana_coman I didn't use a spell checker.. do you have one to recommend ? | [16:02] |
| dorion: | I'll read that #e thread. | [16:03] |
| diana_coman: | dorion: sadly no, I actually don't use one really (I'm just detail-oriented whether I like it or not). | [16:04] |
| dorion: | diana_coman I didn't check with trinque, as of 12/29 he said he might. In my comment friday evening I said I could today. I'll ask trinque explicitly though. | [16:06] |
| diana_coman: | can't hurt and it's not like it can't wait (though I see why you'd rather have it done and not hanging like that, of course). | [16:07] |
| dorion: | yeah, not a rush, but has been two weeks (tm) since it was suggested by both you and mp, so I thought why not ? trinque's churning out some really good stuff as it is. plus, if this guy actually does wanna step up to the plate, that could free spyked up for something else. | [16:15] |
| dorion: | i'll see what trinque says and if he gives me the green light, dial it back. | [16:16] |
| diana_coman: | dorion: sure; and I really meant just sync with trinque , nothing more. | [16:17] |
| dorion: | cool, thanks. | [16:19] |
| diana_coman: | anytime. | [16:19] |
| jfw: | ahoy, I've again failed to get my article written; I did make good headway on organizing my loose pile of thoughts on the family, so I won't consider the time a waste. | [19:02] |
| jfw: | I've noticed that one time-stretching self-delusion I'm prone to is "I haven't yet sat down and logged a start time on task X, thus I'm now 'preparing myself' or something and can drag feet and it totally doesn't count as time spent on X" | [19:04] |
| jfw: | quite like the usg inflation measurement flexi-rulers huh | [19:06] |
| jfw: | dorion: I also don't use spellcheckers except on occasion; my attitude is it's better to improve the brain-proofreading capacity first because spellchecker will never help with eg. "discuss with your further the cost". Perhaps they're most helpful if viewed like a teacher; they're not 'fixing for you' but pointing out mistakes so you can learn. For CLI environment I've used "aspell". | [19:14] |
| jfw: | whaack: are you in yet? made contact with dorion? | [19:17] |
| jfw: | hm, the above is why imho spellchecker is a permissible thing in human society but autocorrect is not (beyond the more basic problem of being a machine designed to disobey commands) | [19:28] |
| BingoBoingo: | jfw: Just remember that time, like some other things doesn't inflate very well | [19:38] |
| dorion: | jfw thanks for the aspell tip. there's other envs apart from cli ? | [20:10] |
| dorion: | jfw whaack wasn't expecting to get settled in until 7:30ish | [20:11] |
| jfw: | quite so BingoBoingo. dorion: was that a rhetorical question or what do you mean re other envs? | [20:42] |
| dorion: | jfw was joak | [20:42] |
| jfw: | gotcha. | [20:43] |
| dorion: | off to meet whaack | [21:03] |
| watchfuleye: | jfw: thx for asking, yup i am at selinas meeting up w/ dorion in a couple of mins | [21:12] |
| whaack_temp_trav: | ^ watchfuleye was my nick for fleetbot on alt comp | [21:12] |
| whaack_temp_trav: | anyways, cya tomorrow jfw | [21:13] |
| jfw: | and who doesn't love a watchful eye dropping in to say hi! | [21:14] |
