| 20:20.01 | starseeker | well, since it's NetBSD - "2010: the year of NetBSD on *" |
| 20:32.10 | ``Erik | *bsd is a force to be reckoned with... as a server os... I ifgure the 'desktop' is seriously going to slowly move to being a thin client, I think the whole web two point oh ajax thing is gonna become more and more common |
| 20:32.56 | ``Erik | especially with html5 :) |
| 20:33.03 | starseeker | heh |
| 20:33.41 | ``Erik | (and I'm an old unix geek... I don't like it, it's just what it smells like to me) |

| 20:36.30 | ``Erik | y'know, was talking to daytona, I've been coding longer than he has |
| 20:37.39 | ``Erik | but he's an awful damn sharp fellow, and got his intro to coding with awfully smart help, he made a comment on wednesday that made me feel like a retard |
| 20:38.01 | ``Erik | good times :) |
| 20:39.37 | starseeker | hehe |
| 20:39.56 | starseeker | hmm, cool - software for drug effect prediction |
| 20:40.38 | starseeker | this is hilarous - they're claiming it's non-commercial license only for academics, but they're also saying it's GPL: http://funsite.sdsc.edu/scb/smap/Registration.jsp |
| 20:41.51 | starseeker | 'course, no academic email no ticket... |
| 20:48.11 | ``Erik | gpl is gpl, they can't do squat about it... they can opt to not respond to email, but.... |
| 20:48.32 | starseeker | yeah, they must be counting on other academics not posting it for download |
| 20:48.52 | starseeker | (which I can't find so far, so perhaps it's working for them) |
| 20:49.16 | ``Erik | seems silly |
| 20:49.34 | starseeker | probably would like to get some $$$ from big pharma |
| 20:51.41 | ``Erik | gpl doesn't prohibit dual licensing *shrug* |
| 20:51.59 | starseeker | yeah, looks like inexperienced setup |

| 20:54.01 | ``Erik | yeh, /. last night |
| 20:54.46 | starseeker | Large businesses are to grass roots orgs what lawn mowers are to lawns |
| 20:55.14 | ``Erik | all large businesses were small businesses at one point |
| 20:55.38 | ``Erik | :( I think arl has seen the biz size mutation over the last 5 years or so |
| 20:55.57 | starseeker | true, but generally when they're small they have fewer resources to waste on such things... |
| 20:56.47 | ``Erik | kinda makes me want to go create a massive mega-corp |
| 20:57.15 | ``Erik | so when I see that kinda fucktardedness, I can put my foot down and go "oh my fucking god, you are ruining everything that is good in humanity" |
| 20:57.19 | ``Erik | :D |
