15:51.01 | jlp_znc | spangborn: dremex was at a funeral yesterday, as was I. |
15:51.07 | spangborn | :( |
15:51.45 | jlp_znc | today he is on his way back to Vegas to catch a flight back to Maryland, since it is 50% cheaper to fly into and out of Vegas than SLC. |
15:52.17 | jlp_znc | fare from BWI to SLC was about $800-1000, BWI to LAS was $406. |
15:52.39 | jlp_znc | but he doesn't hang out here on IRC any more... I don't know why. |
15:54.19 | spangborn | It's probably youtah's fault |
15:55.47 | jlp_znc | ha, I just asked him why he is never on IRC any more... he answered "because it isn't 1990" |

17:17.03 | romanovic | 's reason in _favor_ of irc - "because in 2018 the alternative is Slack" |
17:28.09 | programmerq | there's also Basecamp (https://basecamp.com/), hipchat (https://www.hipchat.com), Mattermost (https://about.mattermost.com), Jabber (https://www.jabber.org), Fleep (https://fleep.io/), Hive (https://hive.com/), Let's Chat (https://sdelements.github.io/lets-chat/), Rocket.Chat (https://rocket.chat/), Skype for business, Salesforce Chatter (https://www.salesforce.com/products/chatter/features/), Watercooler |
17:28.10 | programmerq | (http://silverlinecrm.com/the-silverline-foundry/the-watercooler/#app-overview) |
17:28.12 | programmerq | so not just slack |
17:28.55 | frostyfrog | At least slack has an IRC gateway. |
17:29.06 | frostyfrog | Discord doesn't offer such a feature :( |
17:30.44 | spangborn | frostyfrog: Not anymore they don't |
17:30.49 | spangborn | Slack is killing IRC gateway |
17:30.53 | frostyfrog | ... |
17:31.00 | frostyfrog | I use it on a daily basis |
17:31.09 | spangborn | https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16539857 |
17:31.09 | frostyfrog | for work, I might add... |
17:31.12 | spangborn | Well good luck when it dies |
17:32.07 | spangborn | May 15th, both XMPP and IRC will die |
17:33.01 | frostyfrog | 2 days... |
17:33.06 | frostyfrog | great. |
17:33.10 | programmerq | 2 months |
17:33.20 | frostyfrog | Oh, much better :) |
17:33.36 | frostyfrog | Now I have much more time to spam their social media :p |
17:34.12 | frostyfrog | Once it happens, hangouts will become my go-to for work if people want to get ahold of me. |
17:34.21 | programmerq | I'm pretty sure they won't be swayed on this. they know how many users use those services, and they know that those users that do aren't the ones who sign the checks. |
17:34.59 | programmerq | frostyfrog⸠what is the IRC client you use? |
17:35.15 | programmerq | weechat has a slack plugin that does'nt use their irc gateway |
17:35.18 | frostyfrog | ATM, at work I use KVIRC. At home, weechat. |
17:35.40 | programmerq | https://github.com/wee-slack/wee-slack |
17:35.43 | frostyfrog | (though on windows at home, I use KVIRC) |
17:38.56 | frostyfrog | weechat is too difficult to manage, especially with 6 servers and ~60 channels in total >_> That, or I haven't found out how to best use it with that many channels/servers |
17:40.21 | frostyfrog | 32 of thse servers are in the company slack "server" |

20:48.50 | youtah | I think I need another mtn dew |
20:48.55 | spangborn | Four |
20:49.17 | youtah | $_GET['x'] is the correct answer spangborn |

20:59.52 | keldwud | I got all excited at "we're also hiring" |
21:02.57 | RyanE | My roommate in college used to work for Western Watts, a survey company at the time... Sleazy... |
21:03.26 | RyanE | s/Watts/Wats/g |
21:04.33 | RyanE | Back then it was located on Center Street in Provo, in an old building, with packed-in employees in a cube farm. |
21:08.54 | keldwud | omg western watts! |
21:08.59 | keldwud | I remember those days |
21:09.13 | keldwud | there was western watts and wirthlin worldwide |
21:09.27 | keldwud | the two call centers in provo/orem that everybody cut their teeth at |
21:09.49 | keldwud | wait, western watts is still around? how in the heck have they survived? |
21:10.14 | RyanE | Yeah, my roommate back in '88 basically ran the place. |
21:10.29 | RyanE | unknown. Never seen such a mass of disorganization. |

21:11.31 | Migs | lol child labor violations |
21:11.44 | RyanE | Yeah, saw that in Googlies... fun fun |
21:11.52 | Migs | how does that even happen nowadays? |
21:12.25 | RyanE | I assume due to lax hiring practices... :) |
21:12.30 | Migs | companies are reluctant enough to hire minors...you'd think those that do would be EXTRA careful to follow the law |
21:12.35 | keldwud | yeah western watts has always been scummy |
21:12.54 | Migs | so they're part of SSI now, I guess? |
21:13.01 | RyanE | apparently |
21:13.38 | Migs | western http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/173/576/Wat8.jpg?1315930535 |
21:15.37 | RyanE | heh |
21:16.34 | RyanE | I think wats were phone company terminology for long-distance lines back in the day. |
21:23.14 | unum | the owners of my company got their start at wirthlin |
21:23.31 | unum | wester watts got bought out by ssi which renamed them to opionolgy |
