up_the_irons: so the 2nd CPU, rated at 80W, didn't hit the radar
I was *very* suprised by that actually
it makes the decision of 1 CPU or 2 a non issue
ballen: yea it is interesting
up_the_irons: besides just the cost of the sucker
nevertheless, I just pulled the trigger on ordering another box
this time, I'm getting the L5430's
same as E5430 but low voltage
50W TDP
ballen: nehalems?
up_the_irons: no, one generation earlier
the 5400's, not 5500's
nehalems are still too expensive
ballen: ah
nehalems are damned fast though
have two 5520's in a box at work
compared against another box that has a 5420 in its noticable
up_the_irons: For VMs, I don't think the CPU is the main bottleneck. I could get the extra speed, but I'd still max out at disk I/O
ballen: what is the box doing though?
ballen: 5520 box is running ESXi
5420 is a web server
up_the_irons: F' it, maybe my *next* box I'll try the 5500's
ESXi is a hungry mother though
ballen: oh and its loves those CPUs
up_the_irons: hahaha
ballen: I have... 10 vms running now
or so
going to run out of disk space before anything
up_the_irons: ballen: let me know when you get to 30 ;)
ballen: doesn't touch the CPUs
yea I don't have the disk space
at least with my current provisioning
I do have like 22 gigs of ram free too
up_the_irons: dbgi: i'm not gonna set your rdns up w/ RFC 2317, like the FAQ says, I want to try the "regular" class C style; meaning, you don't have to change much on your side
ballen: you must give 'em a lot of disk
ballen: yea using local SAS drives
in RAID 5
only had 1.4T
my devs do bio work, so they VMs need a retarded amount of space
dbgi: up_the_irons ok cool thanks man
ballen: best $7k we spent though
dropped 5 servers so far in my env
and put them on this box
up_the_irons: ballen: nice
ballen: if you ever need to p2v a FreeBSD, let me know ;-)
FreeBSD box*
dbgi: up_the_irons im learning this while im doing it, so easier is better, i appreciate it
ballen: ugh... classless reverse dns deligation...
dbgi: though im not sure what you mean by class c style
up_the_irons: ballen: p2v?:)
ballen: physical to virtual
moving a metal install to a vm
up_the_irons: ah gotcha
i've done plenty of those, not w/ freebsd though
ballen: dump and restore work surprisingly well for it
just boot with a FreeBSD 8 "live" cd
and put into the cd fixit env
s/put/boot
ftp over the dump file
partition, etc
restore
make sure fstab works for the new env
make sure rc.conf is fixed for the new env
good to go
also if you have a custom kernel... install the generic one before doing the dump
up_the_irons: dbgi: what are the IP(s) / hostnames of your DNS servers?
ballen: yeah, sounds similar to how i p2v'd linux boxes
ballen: damnit to freaking hell Ferret doesn't compile on OS X
dbgi: 206.125.172.78 up_the_irons
up_the_irons: dbgi: ok
dbgi: my friend coil in here is helping me, hes knows freebsd really well and admin sum servers, and had done dns, just never from a vps with ips owned by a company like this
so its kinda a learning experiance for us both
up_the_irons: non RFC 2317 sub-class C delegation is new to me too ;)
but recently i've read -- http://homepages.tesco.net/J.deBoynePollard/FGA/avoid-rfc-2317-delegation-example-1.html#SuperdomainBIND
dbgi: is your bind running now?
dbgi: up_the_irons yes its running now
up_the_irons: ok
ballen: omg, thats so much better
rfc-2317 is hell
up_the_irons: rfc 2317 is easy, be a man
;)
ballen: hah
up_the_irons: i've set it up for countless of people and it wasn't that hard..
i actually having trouble getting his example working
ballen: its just urgly
ugly*
up_the_irons: dbgi: can i log into your VM and look at your dns setup?
dbgi: yes sure
up_the_irons: ok
dbgi: hah, you did an RFC 2317 "style" setup ;)
64/28.172.125.206.in-addr.arpa
wrong zone name
dbgi: my friend coil did it
hes been helping cause i dont know much about it
whats wrong with it up_the_irons? can u fix it by any chance?
up_the_irons: dbgi: workin on it
dbgi: thank you so much
ballen: why are there so many search engines written in java...
up_the_irons: dbgi: resolver was only listening on localhost; fixing...
dbgi: whats wrong with java?
oh ok
ballen: it means I need to install JVM... and thats not happening on FreeBSD
up_the_irons: ballen: why are the Hive guys trying to abstract the integer? which is already an object in Java. and Object of an Object
i don't get why there is that 'a.ns.*' glue record in the bind example
why don't i straight "NS" it to the downstream
dbgi: coil
thats fine to me

better then me then

we both appreciate it very much
up_the_irons: hehe, no problem

up_the_irons: scoil: i'll let u know once i'm done
dig: couldn't get address for 'a.ns.71.172.125.206.in-addr.arpa': not found
ugh
i am hating bind right now...
dbgi: sorry man
ballen: up_the_irons: should use djbdns ;-)
up_the_irons: ballen: i've been meaning to switch for a long time, just too many projects...
-: ballen was very much kidding
up_the_irons: dbgi: not your fault; i'm trying a different delegation scheme here, that should be easier for customers in the future, so it is worth the time spent
ballen: well, getting away from bind would be nice. i want to switch resolution to "unbound" and delegation to "nsd"
dbgi: kk
if i dall asleep im really sorry
ill read up in here if i do
ballen: up_the_irons: ever hear of http://xapian.org/
another search engine
with a ruby lib here: http://github.com/ryanb/xapit
up_the_irons: ballen: sounds familiar
dbgi: no problem, don't wait up ;)
dbgi: you sure?
ill read up in here when i get up ok
my eyes are all blurry
and really, thanks you soooooooooooooooooo much for the help, i really appreciate it
ballen: up_the_irons: it powers gmane.org's search
up_the_irons: dbgi: no problem, get some rest :)
ballen: ah, nice
dbgi: thanks, gnight all
up_the_irons: l8r
alright.. for the record, i can't get that dude's instructions to work; switching back to regular RFC 2317, which has never been a problem in the past
ballen: mmk
also for the record... I'm fairly sure there's no way to do fuzzy logic search with a key/value db that doesn't involve load the entire contents of a set into memory first
the only workable model I could come up with is storing permutations of the data and do normal include? on the set
up_the_irons: dbgi: i *think* your rdns is working; i dunno why I had so much trouble with this one after I put it back to RFC 2317... maybe things are cached somewhere, you had a long TTL. I'm just gonna leave it alone for now; see the changes I did to /etc/namedb

up_the_irons: morn'
Thorgrimr: Hey up_the_irons
Can I run dns for ipv6 on an ipv4-only host?
up_the_irons: yeah but why would you want to?
Thorgrimr: I'd like to run reverses etc for my stuff, but our primary dns boxes are ipv4
Either that, or I need to add another IP to this box to satisfy the two dns requirement
up_the_irons: you can do it, there's no technical reason you can't
Thorgrimr: Alright, thanks
up_the_irons: np
Thorgrimr: Have you got sample reverse zone files up anywhere (for v6)?
Nat_UB: http://www.isi.edu/~bmanning/v6DNS.html#named.conf
Thorgrimr: Yeah, but I thought ip6.int was deprecated over ip6.arpa?
up_the_irons: i use ip6.arpa
Thorgrimr: And we are assigned /64s? Or /48s?
up_the_irons: /48
Thorgrimr: Okay, got a few too many 0's in my config
Well howbout that crap... use the right prefix length in the reverse zone and it actually starts responding :)
mike-burns: Much as I like Sinatra's minimalism, it doesn't give you anything. If I built my own Tender I'd use Rails and Searchlogic. Maybe throw some freetext search engine at it if I discovered a perf problem.

make sure theres no ACL's etc
can you query other domains on it remotely

up_the_irons: ballen: you can't dig with "-x" directly on his resolver b/c he doesn't have the entire class C. this is what works:
ballen: no idea what that IP is though
up_the_irons: dig @206.125.172.78 66.64-79.172.125.206.in-addr.arpa ptr
ballen: up_the_irons: ah

up_the_irons: 300, yes

up_the_irons: jeev: and no, i haven't tried VIA yet; i'm against individually plastic wrapped products (produces a crap ton of waste)
ballen: isn't VIA instant coffe?
up_the_irons: yup
ballen: ew
I'll stick to my espresso
up_the_irons: if i make my own coffee, it is french pressed
there is nothing better than pressed coffee, compared to drip
you waste nothing (no filter), and it is 10x stronger
ballen: yea I do up the french press as well
but have been making primarly espresso
for the last month or so
up_the_irons: cool
Guest90705: lets see if ipv6 works

jeev: oh ballen
you try VIA from starbucks ?
up_the_irons, servers come in plastic
ballen: closest starbucks is like 30 minutes away
I make my own coffee
jeev: oh
ballen: not a fan of instant coffee
jeev: yea i guess
i like all kind as long as i can make it sweet
ballen: thats what she said
jeev: heh
nasty shit
ballen: Drinking: http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/287/38146
quite strong
BeBoo_: coffee is nasty
ballen: BeBoo_: blasphemy
BeBoo_: ballen: tea ftw kthx
ballen: tea is good
BeBoo_: speaking of which...
jeev: did anyone see Year One ?
BeBoo_: i should make some
ballen: but coffee... isss better
BeBoo_: coffee causes kidney stones
you have fun with that
lol
ballen: since when?
BeBoo_: caffeine
However, in a latest survey maintain that kidney function is influenced by too much coffee or caffeine intake. It could lead to some problems for example diuresis, detrusor instability and kidney stones.
Caffeine intake has to be controlled or it can cause the painful medical situation of kidney stones. In a current examination, participants with a history of kidney stones were provided a dosage of caffeine equal to that found in two cups of coffee.
ballen: well I'm boned
dj_goku: Hi.
BeBoo_: HI.
dj_goku: I think I broke my vps :(
-: BeBoo_ hands you a tissue
visinin: how did you break it?
dj_goku: I rebooted it, but it hasn't came back up.
BeBoo_: dj_goku: connect to the vnc console
It is recommended that people prone to kidney stones ought to control their intake of coffee to less than two cups or 16 ounces per day. Caffeine is discovered in other beverages such as soda which have to be limited to amount alike as well.
dj_goku: BeBoo_: Sorry, I read about the vnc console. But have not idea how to connect.
BeBoo_: dj_goku: http://www.tightvnc.com/
download and install
enter the ip, port and password given to you
you should see your console
scort: how does that work
BeBoo_: how does what work?
scort: the vnc console
even if you, say..take your network interface down
BeBoo_: still confused on the question.
yes?
visinin: scort: it's provided by the hypervisor
BeBoo_: the vnc console is running on the host
not in the vps itself
visinin: exactly
scort: ahh ok
BeBoo_: you can reboot and see the qemu bios post
i thought that was funny
tbh
that console access is a godsend... i failed to enable a flag on my filesystems after a kernel rebuild and it went into single-user
lol
scort: haha
yeah it's very cool
BeBoo_: i'm a linux dork... i used to use freebsd all the time but no one ever offered freebsd vpses... i never saw arp until recently
well, actually teknicaL found them
dj_goku: I can't vnc to the IP of my vps.
BeBoo_: its not your vps' IP
you were given an ip, port and password at signup. not sure if it's in the email but it's definately in your portal
it's a different IP
i assume it's the host's IP
dj_goku: crap
-: dj_goku feels dumb
dj_goku: weird.
BeBoo_: ?
ballen: portal.arpnetworks.com
login
dj_goku: locked up at boot
ballen: its shown there
dj_goku: well past post.
ballen: hmm
dj_goku: anyone have a openbsd vps in here?
ballen: ctrl-alt-delete?
nah fbsd here
dj_goku: its at setting tty flags
ballen: up_the_irons: your presence is required
BeBoo_: dj_goku: you'll need to boot into single user most likely to see what's going on
dj_goku: ballen: did you compile a amd64 or i386 kernel
ballen: using the generic 64
BeBoo_: i built an amd64 kernel
no problems here
dj_goku: same here
how do I boot into single user mode?
BeBoo_: don't know on openbsd
never used it
i assume there is a boot menu like freebsd has
scort: bah i dont think rdns is working fully
***: coil_ has joined #arpnetworks
dj_goku: oh, well I know how to, just not sure how to reboot the vps.
BeBoo_: that has the option to boot normally or single user
***: coil_ is now known as Guest35813
BeBoo_: try ctl-alt-delete inside the vnc window
scort: some vnc clients have a "send ctl-alt-del" menu button
BeBoo_: the vnc client may be able to send ctl-alt-delete as well.
check the buttons or menus
dj_goku: haha, I can ctrl + C
hehe
BeBoo_: i use a mac so i have a different vnc client
dj_goku: BeBoo_: what do you use?
scort: dj_goku are you using tightvnc
-: dj_goku has a mac also
dj_goku: no.
BeBoo_: "Chicken of the VNC"
dj_goku: aye
BeBoo_: weird name for an app
but i love it
nice and fast
dj_goku: yah
ballen: FYI Chkick blows
Chicken
BeBoo_: :X
ballen: JollysFastVNC
BeBoo_: how DARE you
ballen: is the new one
dj_goku: ballen: am using that currently.
ballen: that owns
BeBoo_: pfft
ballen: you have a mac?
-: dj_goku doesn't know what to do.
ballen: theres a Sen CTL-ALT-DEL deal in one of the menus
visinin: real men telnet into VNC servers, type the commands manually, and draw out the current state of the screen on graph paper
ballen: BeBoo: of course
BeBoo_: visinin: lol @ telnet
visinin: or netcat if you're into that
BeBoo_: ballen: do you use terminal to ssh or an ssh client?
visinin: that's kinky stuff though
dj_goku: ballen: openbsd doesn't use CTRL + ALT + DEL
ballen: dj_goku: send a email to support@arpnetworks.com
to get attention of Garry
visinin: dj_goku: http://www.openbsd101.com/tipstricks.html#tt1
BeBoo_: or say his nick a few hundred times

BeBoo_: lol
dj_goku: visinin: yeah its in the FAQ on openbsd.org
-: BeBoo_ waits for the ban hammer
BeBoo_: ;x
visinin: ah cool
BeBoo_: ballen: do you use terminal to ssh or an ssh client?
ballen: naaaah
visinin: haven't used openbsd in a while
ballen: terminal
BeBoo_: bah
dj_goku: visinin: but, its booting the kernel just has stopped.
BeBoo_: i'm looking for an ssh client for the mac
ballen: what in the hell is wrong with terminal
dj_goku: BeBoo_: terminal is good
BeBoo_: i build putty from source and can run it under x11 but it's slow
ballen: you on Leopard or Snow Leopard?
BeBoo_: SL
dj_goku: sl
ballen: so whats wrong with Term
BeBoo_: only feature i really really want... is sending of keep-alive packets when connected over ssh
my firewall closes idle connections
ballen: yea that'd be nice
BeBoo_: =[21:54] <ballen> ssh doesn't have that option
ballen: the cmd line
BeBoo_: nope but ssh clients dp
do*
sending of NOOP commands
i might use putty even tho it's slow
=[21:54] <BeBoo_> and i haven't figured out exactly how to use keys using ssh
ballen: Beboo_: sshd_config on server add:
KeepAlive yes
ClientAliveInterval 60
BeBoo_: oooo
ballen: or quicker if you'd like
BeBoo_: 60 is what i usually set it to
ballen: I run into the same problem
fucking Junipers
dj_goku: BeBoo_: like authorized_keys?
scort: BeBoo_ you gotta download puttygen.exe and make a key
then put that in authorized_keys
ballen: Beboo_: also if you don't have sshd_config access
~/.ssh/config
ServerAliveInterval 60
dj_goku: config is how I setup multiple key pairs
up_the_irons: i'm here, just reading scrollback...
ballen: hah, see it worked
dj_goku: hehe
up_the_irons: I fubared my VPS.
sent you an email.
2 days old and I already broke it.
BeBoo_: i know how to _make_ keys
i don't know how to use them when connecting to a server using ssh
in terminal
ballen: use them normally
cat id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
id_rsa.pub from the client
authorized_keys in the server side
if your on a Mac
and the key as a password
up_the_irons: dj_goku: did you recompiled your kernel?
BeBoo_: ah
ballen: ssh-agent will pop up a nifty thing and ask you to add it to your keychain
dj_goku: up_the_irons: yes sir.
BeBoo_: Host 10.0.0.1
User dj_goku
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
add something like that to your ~/.config
up_the_irons: dj_goku: LOL, then you need: http://scie.nti.st/2009/10/4/running-openbsd-4-5-in-kvm-on-ubuntu-linux-9-04
i just wrote that yesterday ;)
dj_goku: said :(
sad*
up_the_irons: dj_goku: your kernel locked up b/c you didn't disable mpbios
ballen: hah
brilliant
up_the_irons: dj_goku: can you tell me your VM UUID (found within portal)
ballen: up_the_irons: wth is eBay4R
nvm
dj_goku: up_the_irons: /msg
BeBoo_: then after you add that you can: ssh user@10.0.0.1
BeBoo_: if the cert doesn't work you might add the fqdn/ip after Host
BeBoo_: dj_goku: cool. i'll try it out
i'd rather keys
up_the_irons: dj_goku: get out of VNC (it only lets one user connect at a time)
so i can DRIVE
dj_goku: done
BeBoo_: :o
watch out... up_the_irons might speed
ballen: vrooom
dj_goku: hehe
-: BeBoo_ gets his cop hat on
BeBoo_: oops... sorry i was in ballen's kink box
ballen: and again thats what she said
-: BeBoo_ gives up_the_irons a speeding ticket
up_the_irons: hehe
ballen: is that what they call it now
up_the_irons: dj_goku: you're back up; i just performed what the blog post i pasted earlier said
dj_goku: up_the_irons: cool thx!
up_the_irons: dj_goku: if you recompile your kernel again, be sure to "config -ef /bsd", then "disable mpbios" then "quit", before you reboot
dj_goku: alright, do you know if this is a problem in 4.6?
up_the_irons: probably
dj_goku: ok
up_the_irons: openbsd 4.5 started doing different things with interrupts
probably made it better and exposed a bug in KVM
dj_goku: up_the_irons: how did you fix it so if it doesn't happen again I don't have to bug you.
s/doesn't/does/
up_the_irons: dj_goku: you mean if it hangs at 'setting tty flags' ?
dj_goku: yes
up_the_irons: try to not get there again by following my instructions ;)
dj_goku: or did you just reset it?
I plan too.
up_the_irons: dj_goku: right now, there is no way for a customer to hard shutdown their VM (and subsequently start it again)
but I'm working on that feature
soon soon soon
dj_goku: up_the_irons: no biggie, just didn't want to waste your time is all.
up_the_irons: right, i understand
i only waste my own time b/c i haven't given my customers all the tools to help themselves
dj_goku: up_the_irons: thanks again!
up_the_irons: the goal is to give customers as many tools to let themselves self-serivce their VM, as possible
just not quite there yet :)
no problem
ok
dj_goku: up_the_irons: at first I was compiling for i386 then I was like hrm let me make sure its really i386
up_the_irons: ppl who know me...
know that i must cd $starbucks
BeBoo_: up_the_irons: what language are these tools written in?
or going to be written in
ballen: of course you must
dj_goku: Perl!! hopefully :D
ballen: sudo cd $starbucks
BeBoo_: sudo rm $starbucks
ballen: gone?
-: up_the_irons slaps ballen
up_the_irons: "cd" is not a command
sudo sh -c "cd $starbucks"
is what you'd need
ballen: sudo popd $starbucks
up_the_irons: be back soon
BeBoo_: bah
ballen: sudo rm -rf /*
yay for me, first draft submitted to these committee

jeev: he
flu shots

dj_goku: flu shot is for old/young kids.
jeev: just garbage poison to make you sick

ewwwww
why would you do that

LA went from hell
to freezing
in a couple days
dj_goku: ballen: where are you?
ballen: northern michigan
dj_goku: lol

visinin: well uh
ballen: I think LA is self-insulating
visinin: last year, right at the end of summer, they started sticking up "snow route" signs in downtown LA
ballen: wtf
why
visinin: i remember thinking "no fucking way"
jeev: where you live
ballen: yea no way in freaking hell
visinin: i used to live downtown, 6th and spring
there was one of those signs at 6th and grand
ballen: solid use of city funds
jeev: ah
visinin: now i live in ann arbor, mi
ballen: oh this is a sexy project: http://github.com/tjake/Lucandra
visinin: i miss LA sometimes
ballen: Visinin: what ya upto in Ann Arbor
jeev: where you at now
ah
visinin: living with some friends, half-assedly trying to find work
finishing old projects that i haven't touched in years
ballen: solid
you picked the wrong state to find work
visinin: haha
yeaaaah.
ballen: Ann Arbor is pretty bad
Flint is worse
visinin: i'm thinking of moving back out san francisco-way toward the beginning of 2010
i've heard terrible things about flint
ballen: yea its pretty fucked up
visinin: i grew up just down 75 in dayton, and it's awful there too
ballen: I'm up in Charlevoix
which is north of Traverse City
visinin: gotcha
got a friend who lives in TC
ballen: right on
crappy place to live
visinin: haha
ballen: nice in the summer though
visinin: yeah
ann arbor's pretty nice, i've stayed here before
ballen: fucking technology black hole
visinin: after living in LA for a few years, actually having seasons is really nice.
ballen: yea I imagine so if you grew up in MI
visinin: yeah, i've heard that about a2
the guys i'm staying with are all on IT staff at umich
seems to work out alright
ballen: yea
yea downstate is decent
north of the various cities isn't much
wouldn't mind living in grand rapids for a bit
but will likely end up on either coast, or TX
dj_goku: most in here sysadmins/programmers?
ballen: I'm a SA
and programmer I guess
visinin: programmer, lazy sysadmin
ballen: although I'd hate to be associated with those types ;-)
fucking have to start a new programming project at work tomorrow
so lame
dj_goku: hehe
ballen: redesign a search page
code base is in Perl
dj_goku: yay!
-: ballen wants to kill himself
dj_goku: ballen: the Perl part or?
ballen: its messy too
yea the webapp is all perl
mod_perl
not 2
just mod_perl
dj_goku: hehe
ballen: Apache 1.3
which I don't mind
dj_goku: I haven't messed with old web Perl.
ballen: 1.3 is solid
dj_goku: Only newer stuff.
ballen: I hate perl
a lot
used to Ruby
jeev: i hate having to code anything, i wish i could just think it up and it'd do it
dj_goku: hehe
ballen: export function from the brain
need a C bridge lib
much rather be working on this project: http://unilogiclabs.com
feel free to signup, code: arp_networks
jeev: what is the benefit to ruby
ballen: work in progress as they say
jeev: its clean
and very "agile"
jeev: is it web based orrrrrrr
ballen: its anything based
Rails is a web framework built on Ruby
jeev: hmm
how about security wise
ballen: Ruby itself is just a language
jeev: what are some cool, well known shits out there that run on ti
it
nerdd: Ruby is nice
ballen: jeev: Twitter
jeev: ballen, i said cool
runs fine with apache ?
ballen: yes with Passenger
jeev: hmm, is it fast?
faster than php
ballen: often slower
but php is lame as hell
jeev: oh
php is insecure as hell, even if you code securely
it'll be insecure soon.
if i am serious at learning to code in a language
that's for the future
which language should i learn
dj_goku: jeev: c#? hehe
jeev: bah
i can't man
i've tried so many times, all i can do is system() lol
ballen: yes C# the language of the fuuuuture
jeev: i mean like
python or ruby
php
ballen: phython or ruby
dj_goku: probably python more, but.
ballen: python*
meh
Ruby
take your pick
dj_goku: jeev: what ever you like the best.
ballen: if you want a more C like lang, checkout Scala
jeev: i dont know the benefits of them
ballen: jeev: who cares just pick the one thats easier for your to program in
dj_goku: they are mostly all fundamentally the same, just syntax/semantics are different
jeev: hmm
up_the_irons: BeBoo_: the serial-over-SSH feature is conserver (http://www.conserver.com/), start/stop VM and tunneling VNC over SSH is mostly written in shell with some batch scripts in Ruby

dj_goku: up_the_irons: if you need testers when you implement it I wouldn't mind :)
up_the_irons: oh that RPS sausage is great
visinin: sounds like u used to live right next to the major data centers in LA
dj_goku: i do, email me your SSH pub key and I'll let you have access (now)
serial-over-IP already works, I use it myself
dj_goku: alright
up_the_irons: support or?
nerdd: jeev: The language that stands out the most of the mentioned ones is probably Scala since it's somewhat functional, built for the JVM and it has some libs that makes concurrent programming easier
jeev: ahh
dj_goku: up_the_irons: support@ or?
up_the_irons: dj_goku: sure
jeev: nerdd, i've said it a lot before, i lack the ability to focus
so i need something that's simple
that'll keep me interested
dj_goku: up_the_irons: sent
ballen: Scala is more complicated than Ruby or Python
as its closer to Java
dj_goku: jeev: basic?
jeev: heh
dj_goku: jeev: what are you wanting to write/produce?
nerdd: Are there any web frameworks built in Basic? And how would you google them?
ballen: hah
jeev: some web stuff
database for data entry
save to pdf
use sql..
nerdd: jeev: Pick Rails
jeev: i guess i'll look at examples
ballen: Rails is sooo bloated though
jeev: ahh
ballen: whats a Django app take in memory
nerdd: Yeah, but Rails is easy, and you'll learn Ruby.. After Ruby you don't want to go back to say.. Java
jeev: never done java
dj_goku: up_the_irons: I guess email me or tell me what I need to do to get going. I am going afk.
up_the_irons: dj_goku: sure, will do
dj_goku: I didn't like the one java class I took.
I mostly write perl/c++.
nerdd: I was happy doing java until I got a Rails assignment.. Then I got fired, did Rails full time for fun, and now I'm back in the java world - only reason I'm doing Java again is because I get paid for it.
dj_goku: jeev: have you looked into any webish languages yet?
jeev: nope
