[01:51:31] <Bytram> Mr. Perkins co-founded the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers in 1972, at a time when parts of Silicon Valley were still fruit orchards. Mr. Perkins and his partners popularized a model of investment that involved putting small amounts of money into promising young start-ups in return for a stake in the companies, giving them advice and counsel to spur their growth.

[09:58:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> huh, interestin
[09:59:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> still, it is microsoft and it is a bsd licensed codebase. i sexpect them to go the apple route and fork into closed source soon.
[10:01:55] <boru> History repeating itself. Look at winsock.
[10:02:11] <boru> And their 'POSIX layer'.
[10:02:55] <boru> They took BSD sockets, winapi-ified it, and implemented the monstrosity that is winsock.

[15:59:11] <Runaway1956> 32 million twitter login credentials stolen - and nothing has been lost.
[16:07:43] <cmn32480> twittter could disappear tomorrow adn nothign of value woudl be lost
[16:09:48] <n1_> things of value would be lost, but that just shows how fucked up we are as a society when it comes to assigning value
[16:11:10] <Runaway1956> Well - the innertubes would still be here - and we could communicate with like-minded and unlike-minded people - only one platform would be "lost"
[16:12:11] <n1_> well sure, but 'regular' people know twitter, facebook, youtube, google more than they know 'the internet'
[16:12:27] <cmn32480> I shoudl think that there is minimal value in the content of twitter
[16:12:29] <n1_> and showing how now the traditional media relies on twitter to cover breaking stories
[16:12:49] <Runaway1956> Well - I must point out that "regular people" make themselves vulnerable to silly nuisance attacks
[16:13:26] <n1_> even my grandmother has a twitter account, no idea what it does or how to use it
[16:13:35] <n1_> just became aware that she needed one at some point
[16:13:45] <Runaway1956> hmmmmm . . . .
[16:14:07] <Runaway1956> Point of interest - how old are you and grandma, n1 ??
[16:14:45] <Runaway1956> I presumed that you're somewhere near "mature" - with varying degrees of maturity - no insult meant at all, at all
[16:15:15] <n1_> i forget precisely, but it's around 28
[16:15:24] <n1_> my grandmother would be or approaching 80
[16:16:02] <Runaway1956> Luck, man - I wish you and her the best. My grandma has been gone twice as long as you've been alive.
[16:16:30] <n1_> she's an early adopter of tech, and an apple fan
[16:16:42] <n1_> so i don't know where i got my dinosaur tech tendencies from
[16:17:14] <n1_> she frequently sits in the lounge with a tv on, macbook on her lap and ipad off to the side
[16:17:20] <Runaway1956> Lest anyone forget, it was her generation that brought us the PC. She is contemporary with some of the founders of today's tech
[16:19:18] <n1_> she loves gadgets and such, but is easily sold on whatever the Daily Mail is promoting this week
[16:19:48] <Runaway1956> Simple solution - blacklist the Daily Mail. Unless, of course, she does her own networking?
[16:20:04] <n1_> has a subscription to the print version delivered every day
[16:20:46] <Runaway1956> Oh, she's still hooked on dead trees. I was too, until it got to hard to read the print. PDF's for the win, you can zoom it as large as you need it.
[16:21:16] <n1_> but i have been tempted to do that in regards to my mother, blocking daily mail at their router.

[16:24:29] <Runaway1956> Women. You can't live with them, and you can't shoot them. Marry a tomboy, they do a lot less of that silly girl stuff.
[16:24:51] <n1_> lol
[16:31:21] <n1_> to be fair, i've found plenty of reasons not to live with either gender as a broad generalisation
[16:31:35] <n1_> but individuals are quite different
[16:32:06] <Runaway1956> To be fair, both genders are crazy, but they go crazy in different ways.
[16:32:23] <Runaway1956> I can relate to male gender crazy better than I can relate to female gender crazy
[16:33:15] <Runaway1956> My wife is 61, and she's just now putting the crazy years behind her. Not entirely out of the woods yet, but she's almost there.
[16:33:30] <Runaway1956> Don't even ask about me . . . .
[16:33:48] <n1_> the overt examples of that crazy male behaviour, rarely is excusable
[16:33:48] <cmn32480> that puts runaway in his early 70's
[16:34:02] <Runaway1956> Nahhh, only 60
[16:34:30] <cmn32480> so she's a cradle robber
[16:34:41] <Runaway1956> And, I refuse to act sane. Better to act nuts, and keep everyone guessing
[16:34:41] <n1_> but crazy on its own terms is ok, the future mrs. n1 has to be crazy to willingly associate with me every day.
[16:35:09] <Runaway1956> Exactly - the fact that women take mates from the male half of the species prove their insanity.
[16:35:14] <cmn32480> mrs. cmn32480 knew I was a nut when she marreid me
[16:35:16] <Runaway1956> I've NEVER met a guy I wanted to live with.
[16:36:42] <n1_> i've lived with a few male friends and it's been pretty decent, but they were good friends for some time already
[16:37:04] <cmn32480> I lived in a fraternity house
[16:37:13] * cmn32480 recuses himself from this conversation
[16:37:42] <Runaway1956> Barracks life, shipboard life, a few room mates, generally, I just tolerate male companionship - it's not something that I crave
[16:38:29] <n1_> Runaway1956, if you don't get to choose your company, much more understandable
[16:39:34] <cmn32480> had one guy I shared an apartment with after I got out of the house, then J and I moved in together'
[16:42:57] <cmn32480> movign in w/ her worked out decidedly in my favor
[16:43:47] <n1_> never really saw that as an option myself, only really in the last year have i been able to decide to really settle down as far as where 'home' is and what it should be
[16:44:46] <n1_> my situation has been quiet transient for a decade or so
[16:49:20] <cmn32480> mine wasn't transiet...
[16:49:37] <cmn32480> and we had been talking about getting amrried before we moved in together
[16:51:47] <n1_> that's cute
[16:53:13] <cmn32480> worked out
[16:53:16] <cmn32480> 3 kids later...
[16:54:17] <n1_> kids... scary...
[16:57:42] <Runaway1956> That transient life you mentioned - it keeps you young. When you stop traveling, you begin to age. Kids? Kids cause you to age at ten times the regular rate.
[17:13:14] <n1_> do have evidence of that, a friend recently aged 10 years in a few months...
[17:15:01] <n1_> i can't even consider it until i'm sure i can offer any child a better life than i had growing up
[17:19:55] <Runaway1956> That "better life" thing is highly overrated. You give them a chance, and they make of it whatever they will.
[17:20:19] <cmn32480> Runaway1956++
[17:20:19] <Bender> karma - runaway1956: 8
[17:21:16] <cmn32480> the only thing you can do is prepare them for the world
[17:21:17] <Runaway1956> Easy with that karma, man. If it doesn't go to my head, it will become a burden.
[17:21:30] <cmn32480> Runaway1956--
[17:21:30] <Bender> karma - runaway1956: 7
[17:21:33] <cmn32480> feel better?
[17:21:43] <n1_> well, i put giving them a chance as not starting off their lives in a city
[17:21:55] <Runaway1956> Ahhhhhh - I just lost six pounds off of my lard ass. Thank you.
[17:22:39] <cmn32480> lol
[17:25:54] -!- nick [nick!~n1@Soylent/Staff/Editor/n1] has joined #Soylent
[17:25:55] -!- mode/#Soylent [+v nick] by Aphrodite
[17:26:14] <nick> i saw springwatch, a show about nature and wildlife in the uk... the presenter said something like this "when we were kids, [...] we used to go outside and connect with nature [...] kids can't do that anymore, times have changed." and then moved onto the next segment
[17:27:02] <Runaway1956> It isn't so much that they "can't", but, people have made it difficult and inconvenient to do so

[17:27:29] <Runaway1956> A strange kid in a copse of trees prompts a call to the police
[17:27:34] <nick> indeed, but i just found it an amazing admission on a tv show that was always about encouraging it
[17:28:43] <Runaway1956> I think for my next birthday, I want my own Bolo -
[17:29:03] <nick> Bolo?
[17:29:11] <Runaway1956> I started downloading bolo stories more than a week ago - thought I had already read them all
[17:29:17] <Runaway1956> but I''m finding new ones
[17:30:01] <Runaway1956> Bolos are the creation of Keith Laumer
[17:30:17] <Runaway1956> massive battle tanks, with super awesome weapons
[17:30:44] <Runaway1956> Starting with something like the Mark 15, they can take ships out of orbit, if they can get line of sight
[17:30:51] <chromas> Be On the LookOut for a guy in a bolo tie driving a bolo
[17:31:02] * Runaway1956 likes bolo ties
[17:31:14] <Runaway1956> you can always remove a bolo tie, and use it for a weapon
[17:31:27] <chromas> normal ties already are
[17:31:36] <chromas> classy nooses
[17:32:04] <Runaway1956> Normal ties turn into weapons against the wearer more often than the wearer utilizes it for a weapon
[17:32:14] <Runaway1956> I think that's the reason clip-ons were invented
[17:32:34] <chromas> nooses are for funerals and weddings
[17:32:46] <Runaway1956> In uniform, clip-ons were the order of the day, except for full dress inspections, then I tied a full windsor
[17:33:31] <Runaway1956> for which I often got gigged - half-windsor ties are "uniform"
[17:35:09] <chromas> which half?
