Humans categorize. It's what we were evolved to do. We sort everything into known quantities and evaluate in bulk.
Mɹ
22:56
Majik ɹɐǝq
and generalize, apparently
M
22:56
Michichael
It takes meaningful, concentrated effort to understand and evaluate people without underlying bias.
Mɹ
22:57
Majik ɹɐǝq
that's what she said
M
22:57
Michichael
There will always be a sum of experiences that influence ones perception of others, and involuntary bias to color that perception. Recognizing and accounting for that is healthy.
22:57
But we have a nasty habit of people going around trying to swing it the full other pendulum way
Mɹ

Majik ɹɐǝq
broad sweeping generalizations

23:12
Tamino
the way i feel is... if i feel like someone is my brother, then i can call him that and take that relationship very seriously, every bit as seriously as any "biological" brother relationship.
23:12
or if i feel like someone is my pet, then i can call him that too, and take that relationship just as seriously.
M

Sure, sex can be involved, but the relationship is more one akin to a wolf pack - even if we're not related, we care deeply for and watch out for each other.

Among my people, we have a common thing to say to those dirty gays: ‘Yes, come, but don’t expect to stay overnight. Don’t expect to be a lengthy house guest.

A man sits and eats damp clay for moisture.
How is it with him when a flood of fresh
prophetic rainwater suddenly rides him along?
How is it when a blind, filthy dog wakes up,
and finds that he's a lion, and not
a lion such as could be killed,
but a spirit-lion who shatters sword
and javelin with just his presence?

Shitty thing about selling on eBay is that you have to wait 3 months after the sale before you spend the money you got because any time within 90 days the buyer can open a return request through Paypal and Paypal will immediately yank the money out of your bank account.
20:28
They don't even give you a chance to respond to the request, they just take the money as soon as the buyer requests the return.

Quigre: They have their pro's and cons.
02:16
iscsi is certainly more versatile, cheaper, and extensible
02:17
FC is pricey, is a bit better performance that dwindles quickly when you look at infiniband or RDMA, but is much more stable.
02:17
So like all things IT, it depends on your use case.
02:17
There's no "this is better than that" in all situations.
02:21
FC doesn't have any real guarantees. It's still technically block that you can add IP protocol to.
02:21
And RDMA is comparable when you're using any decent top of stack equipment.
02:22
A FC fabric is very comparable to low layer IP stack
02:22
I flipped my statement
02:22
sorry
02:22
I'm tired
02:23
Take a look at FC-4's implementations.
02:23
Yes.
02:24
*shrugs*

Pretty much
02:24
Hell i've got a client that thought they had their san attached via 10 gig fc links and it's backplane is 1gig
02:25
via a simple smart switch
02:25
Again, rdma.
02:25
iscsi isn't that difficult to get good performance out of
02:26
Most clients don't use all their storage throughput anyway.
02:26
If you say so.

i keep having it in the back of my mind that we still need to figure out a good food place east-bay-ish and near-bart to get together at. i kind of wanted to explore places this past saturday but my weekends have been nutty lately.
13:21
there seem to be a boudin, a chipotle, and a panera, within walking distance of fremont bart. there's also a really neat looking crepe place (both sweet and savory) called Frodo Joe's, but it looks more sit-down and less good for furmeets where not everyone necessarily arrives at the exact same time.

i kinda like the warm springs idea cuz it's less crowded and less urban and a little easier for south bay folks to get to than up in fremont proper, but... along with being crowded and urban comes good restaurants, unfortunately, i guess.

for me that would be a long bike ride just to see furs! but if you feel like going there and trying it out this weekend, i'll come! hopefully others here will too, but me definitely :-)
15:02
dinner-time-ish on saturday maybe? or would lunch be better?
15:04
the last time i tried to start a furmeet, some people suggested a coffee shop, and we went and had coffee and then we were like "... now what?" and so we were wandering around downtown palo alto and we just accidentally ran into a mediterranean place and it seemed cool and so we just stuck with it.
15:05
the whole thing was just kind of a happy accident. so i guess "just try and see how it goes" is probably a pretty good approach!

Well today was just hilarious bullshit
20:49
We had our all hands

And it was the most sickening bout of corporate cheerleading
20:49
someone asked "Well with all the tax cuts and every comapny is handing out bonuses - what's our plan?"
20:49
CFO said, and I quote: "We're not a big manufacturing company, so the tax cuts don't help us. We're assessing."
20:50
And the private employee-only, no managers, chat BLEW UP with calling bullshit.
20:50
Because either, as the CFO, you're too INCOMPETENT to understand that 9% off our tax bill means the company's profits just jumped up 13 million, or you're greedy.
20:50
Pick one.

No problem. As someone that probably would have been classified as on the spectrum, if there was a spectrum back then, I know it's hard opening up to and meeting people, and harder still to understand or not over-analyze what they say. You're more than welcome to be here and we try to have an open and welcoming group. Pretty much the only hard rule is no visual porn and we try to get everyone to be civil.

Lots of drinking, smoking, quizzes and if you get something wrong physical punishments for everyone
17:09
It's enough to make me rethink whether I care or not
17:16
I'm not vegan or vegetarian, I will eat anything that is put on my plate

The further you get from the bay area the more difficult people are to deal with because it costs more to live close to the bay.
18:12
People who are dysfunctional get pushed further out the more dysfunctional they are.

huh. that's an interesting take on it. i've been doubling down on the whole "there are no bad people, just people with a different culture than me" thing lately.

not that that solves everything either.

Or you could just put on those big headphones and listen to something at a frequency where it's less distracting for you to work, if outside noise is the main issue

i actually like 6-foot cubes!
20:22
it's open offices, 4 foot cubes, even 5 foot cubes, that i hate.
20:26
there's also etiquette/culture stuff too. like, if you take the same office, laid out the same way, with the same cubes...

... and you fill it full of people who religiously set their phones to vibrate as soon as they get in every day... wear headphones whenever they watch something on youtube... go to a conference room when they need to use a speakerphone...

... that's WAY DIFFERENT than if you fill it full of people who have speakerphone conference calls from their desks, gather together in groups to watch videos through speakers, and have their cell phones going off at full volume all the time.
