[01:02:54] <hazmat> aclark, sadly the price of hds have doubled in the last two weeks, else it seems to work well.. freenas 8
[01:44:30] <aclark> wow

[15:57:00] <aclark> yay
[16:00:36] <aclark> hazmat: are you using it?
[16:01:42] <hazmat> aclark, not for anything prod, just experiments
[16:02:02] <hazmat> there are those who are though.. quora comes to mind
[16:02:04] <aclark> ah
[16:34:13] <dandrinkard> Anybody here intimately familiar with the (?x) regexp flag?
[16:34:44] <dandrinkard> found this to be a bit odd: https://gist.github.com/1383155
[18:27:31] <j00bar> aclark: ping?
[18:41:38] <aclark> j00bar: pong
[18:41:55] <j00bar> aclark: i'm a dumbass
[18:42:03] <j00bar> i posted to dcpython list using my socialcodeinc.com instead of socialcode.com
[18:42:15] <j00bar> do you want to approve the non-subscribed email or do you want me to repost from the proper one.
[18:42:32] <aclark> j00bar: i think meetup controls it, let me check
[18:43:29] <aclark> j00bar: yeah they don't give organizers to manage at that level AFAICT, sorry
[18:43:38] <j00bar> okay - i'll resubmit
[18:43:49] <aclark> w00t! approach 500 members
[18:43:50] <aclark> k
[18:46:44] <aclark> btw everyone rsvp for jan, heroku is coming
[18:47:12] <aclark> they want to see 20 peeps which we normally get anyway
[18:48:50] <MattBowen> done
[18:49:39] <aclark> MattBowen: thanks!
[18:50:23] <aclark> is that a good date for everyone? I always get nervous because it's just after NY's day
[18:54:58] <j00bar> aclark: i miss the lunchtime meetups
[18:55:28] <aclark> j00bar: that'd be fun to do again, although i never made it down for one of them
[18:56:01] <aclark> j00bar: hah i have to do my "standard greeting" for everyone ;-)
[18:56:05] <aclark> it's my trademark
[19:44:06] <j00bar> aclark: weird though that i reposted as @socialcode.com and it hasn't come through...
[19:49:15] <aclark> j00bar: you mailing dcpython-list@meetup.com?
[19:49:54] <j00bar> ayup - although not .lower()'ed
[19:50:13] <j00bar> oh sonofabitch
[19:50:13] <aclark> right that doesn't matter
[19:50:25] <j00bar> it still seems to have sent as socialcodeinc
[19:50:37] <aclark> ah
[19:51:11] <j00bar> *grumble*sparrow*grumble**expletive*
[19:51:47] <aclark> heh
[20:12:05] <djbpython> j00bar: nice job listing
[20:12:20] <j00bar> djbpython: thx
[20:28:53] <j00bar> djbpython != *the* djb, i assume?
[20:29:16] <djbpython> not the djb
[20:29:57] <j00bar> i would be astonished if he were living in DC and/or using Adium.
[20:35:05] <aclark> hah
[20:35:09] <aclark> !google djb
[20:35:10] <pmxbot> http://cr.yp.to/ - cr.yp.to
[22:12:33] <j00bar> aclark: yeah. he's infamous.
[22:13:19] <aclark> j00bar: never heard of him
[22:13:27] <j00bar> ever heard of qmail?
[22:13:34] <j00bar> dnscache?
[22:13:49] <j00bar> daemontools?
[22:14:10] <aclark> ah! yup 1 and 3 definitely… possible dnscache too
[22:14:41] <j00bar> back in the day he got horribly fed up with standard unix tools that had atrocious security track records
[22:14:50] <j00bar> notably sendmail and bind
[22:15:33] <j00bar> so djb wrote his own that he put a prize out if anybody could find an actual security vulnerability in the code.
[22:15:39] <j00bar> to my knowledge, the bounty is still out there.
[22:15:42] <j00bar> also, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernstein_v._United_States
[22:18:47] <aclark> wow!
[22:48:38] <djbpython> i get asked all the time if I am *the* djb
[22:48:51] <djbpython> if i were that cool i wouldnt be hanging around irc
[22:54:46] <aclark> djbpython: hah
[22:55:03] <aclark> djbpython: you'd be teaching in chicago apparently
[22:55:27] <aclark> dahoste|away: what's tinydns?
[22:56:05] <aclark> !google tinydns
[22:56:05] <pmxbot> http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/tinydns.html - The tinydns program - D. J. Bernstein
[22:56:09] <aclark> ah
[22:56:16] <aclark> of course ;-)
