16:51.45manithreeLast night's roundtable (in an LDS church) schedule showed some break-outs in the "East Cult Hall."  I KNEW it.

17:20.48Migsyou didn't know we're a cult?
17:21.08MigsMormons have known that for the past 150+ years
17:21.26jxqzyyeah, duh
17:21.44manithreeI'm LDS, and I've always suspected it.
17:21.58manithreeWell, most of the people I went to high school with did.
17:22.53jxqzbut "East Cult" must refer to those fanatic parents who get their kids inot East High School
17:23.32jxqzEast being one of the few anointed public schools that found worthy
17:23.37jxqzin Utah
17:23.42manithreeI have always thought it was funny that we call our gymnasiums cultural halls.  Like basketball IS culture for us.
17:23.52jxqzhaha
17:24.04jxqzit's definitely a politically correct term
17:24.19jxqzcontrol the language and you control the minds of the people
17:24.32Q_Continuum^
17:24.59Q_ContinuumThat is a most double-plus-good statement there, comrade!
17:25.01jxqzI've always called it the gym, and thought it was funny that a sports arena is always in the middle of the church
17:25.29jxqzbut churches are like community centers, fulfilling multiple purposes
17:25.50jxqzlike, 'multipurpose room', and the stage is called simply 'platform'
17:27.12goozbachour cultural hall has about 60/40 basketball/event ratio
17:27.23goozbachwhere event == tables laid out and food consumed
17:28.17jxqzin the zion belt, there are a few churches that get lots of wedding activity in their gyms
17:33.20Migsthat's where I had mine :)
17:33.46Migswell, the reception at least

18:01.33youtahlol manithree
18:02.09youtahI would like to think that East Cult referred to my neck of the woods (the East bench)
18:03.31youtahdidn't have his wedding in a Cultural Hall.

19:08.50sjansenwonders why "dev" and "prod" are common terms but he's never heard "stag" instead of "staging"
19:13.26jlp_workwe used to use "test"
19:13.42jlp_workdev -> test -> prod
19:18.00keldwudyoutah: nice pic :)
19:18.16keldwudoh hey, anybody here with utopianet?
19:18.33keldwudI interview next week
19:22.30jlp_workgood luck.  I know they've got some problems, but I still think municipally owned fiber infrastructure is a good idea.
19:22.35jlp_worklevi, you around, man?
19:23.20jlp_workI was wondering if I can get a copy of the slides from the presentation last night?
19:24.18dremex_workjlp_work, how was the lua thing?
19:27.14jlp_workit was good.  zack didn't get much out of it (he was kind of lost after about 10-15 minutes), but I enjoyed it.
19:27.56jlp_workI spent the drive home explaining to him about computer architecture and how the stack works and how the frame pointer works.
19:32.17jlp_workhe's itching to get into some CS and engineering classes now.
19:32.54dremex_workah cool
19:33.30jlp_workand he's wondering what a good first language would be... since he's pretty convinced that lua isn't it. :-)
19:33.46jlp_workI still think python would be good, what do you think?
19:34.22jlp_workI told him my first computer language was BASIC on the HP 2000.  it was rather... limiting.
19:34.50jlp_workI need to pull out some old assignments from way back in the dark ages.
19:37.03dremex_workyeah python would be a fair choice
19:37.41dremex_workhe could do VB (shudder)
19:39.00jlp_workyeah. no.
19:41.14keldwudI'm with pyhon

19:57.18keldwudc# isnt bad either imho for intro
20:06.19RegionSyxI believe python is the best to learn computer science stuff
20:08.03manithreeI'm thinking of trying botsinc (squeak + logio-like turtle graphics) for my kids.  If I can get them to stop playing minecraft long enough.
20:08.32jlp_workminecraft is actually what got him thinking about going into computer engineering.
20:08.50manithreesame here, then he decided it was hard.
20:09.30jlp_worksomeone had put together a counter in minecraft.  he was talking to me about it and I said "that's what the guys at my work do, but with FPGAs".  my boss loaned him an intro to EE text and he was hooked.
20:20.29gipyelrahI'm looking at gyms and so far they all feel like mlm schemes. wtf.  Isn't there a gym where I can pay a decent monthly fee with no contract?
20:21.13gipyelrah*and* that won't be constantly pushing you to sign a contract?
20:25.04jlp_worklook into your local community center
20:29.29gipyelrahI thought about that ... Spanish Fork doesn't appear to have one as far as I can tell.
20:32.05jlp_work:-(
20:34.01keldwudthere's also kidsruby
20:34.04keldwudthat one is pretty cool
20:34.22jlp_workbut... ruby.
20:34.24keldwudand there was a raspberry pi, iirc, that was dedicated to younger ones
20:34.26keldwudlol
20:34.31keldwudmy boss is the same way
20:34.37keldwudevery time I say ruby he makes a face

22:59.24levijlp_work: Sorry my presentation didn't work too well for him. :(  I'm afraid that was probably more my fault than lua's.
23:01.04leviHaving a compiler-oriented Ph.D. student there asking detailed questions kind of led me in a different direction than I was planning.
23:13.07youtahlevi, jlp_work has left already :-(
23:13.12youtahjust fyi
23:14.09leviI figured that might be the case.  I'll have to catch him later.
23:14.17youtahfor sure. I know he really enjoyed it
23:16.52leviCool, I think that in general the people that were there enjoyed it, but I can definitely see room for improvement in making things more approachable to newer programmers.
