This is why we don't let sys admins order cables. Guy puts in a request to have new servers racked, but they can't go in the two cabinets he already has allocated. EVERY cabinet next to his is full, so the closest I can get is in another pod. He ordered 9.8 ft. cables for the network. Closest I can get the servers is 60 cable feet away. 08:54 <@Evilpig> your fault for letting those racks get used up 08:54 <@Evilpig> how dare you make the best use of hte space when he might have needed them in the future 08:54 <@Evilpig> what a dick 08:54 <@Dolemite> Yes.

It will come back to bite them, though, and they don't want to acknowledge it. 12:17 <@Mirage> And of course they do internal chargeback, so they're probably rolling in the corporat funny money 12:24 <@dasunt> aestetix: What thread? 12:26 < aestetix> https://www.reddit.com/r/television/comments/6bi4ho/i_think_im_done_with_bill_nye_his_new_show_sucks/ 12:26 < PigBot> Title: I think I'm done with Bill Nye.

I think the two halves were mutally coupled to each other, like making a twin-pipe linear turbine engine out of a pair of conventional car turbos without too many bends involved. 14:12 <@dasunt> Musk is ambitious. 14:13 <@Catonic> He's smart, he's got money, and he's got people on his side. Imagine if you had a billion dollars and an altruistic streak and everyone walked up to you and said "I can make science fiction reality tomorrow, if you fund my project." 14:14 <@Catonic> my only opine on SpaceX, is buy stock and hold it. If they are bidding on black projects, they are going to be raking in the cash in a few years. 14:15 <@Catonic> basically they are the only vendor in the space right now who isn't Russian or NASA. 14:47 <@Mirage> lies! http://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/south-carolina-teen-died-caffeine-overdose-coroner-rules-n759716 14:47 < PigBot> Title: Caffeine Overdose Killed South Carolina Teen, Coroner Rules - NBC News (at www.nbcnews.com) http://tinyurl.com/n4djvhk 14:48 <@opticron> sounds like he already had a heart condition 14:48 <@Catonic> The median lethal dose (LD50) given orally is 192 milligrams per kilogram in rats.

No stock to buy. 15:35 <@Catonic> our loss 16:00 <@dasunt> Yep. 16:01 <@dasunt> I'd consider SpaceX to be a gamble (it had an insane burn rate, last time I checked), but worth putting a few bucks on. 16:11 <@dasunt> As far as I know, nobody else is in the same league as SpaceX for the attempt to solve the reusability problem. 16:17 <@dasunt> Is offering different prices to different people for the same product an example of rent-seeking? 16:18 <@dasunt> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rent-seeking 16:18 < PigBot> Title: Rent-seeking - Wikipedia (at en.wikipedia.org) http://tinyurl.com/ploroh8 16:41 <@Catonic> the thing about space flight is that it's not cheap because the government is involved. 16:42 <@Catonic> NASA specifed a particular diameter, a particular material, and high quality. Because of that, things had to be built from those materials, which were expensive to buy. 16:43 <@Catonic> You also don't mess around when human life is involved. 99.9% of the routine and process that NASA uses is based on AF, Navy, CIA, and Army deaths as a result of failure or mistake. 16:45 <@Catonic> So when you get around to resupply missions, that's where you can save a lot of money, because who cares if 250 MREs accidentally go streaking across Antartica as a metorite? 16:46 <@Catonic> Government procurement is usually expensive because of the process involved; everything has to be documented for traceablility and to make sure that no undue advantage exists in the process. 16:47 <@Catonic> Black-world programs have onerous security requirements and costs. 16:48 <@Catonic> When it's a few focus factories doing things and hiding in plain sight, it's easy to get things done and move on. But that world left as long time ago as technology advanced and we became more connected. 16:49 <@Catonic> So yes, buy into the first one to orbit because they get all the contracts before other people figure out the margins and go for cheaper. 16:51 <@Catonic> dasunt: based on what I've seen in a trading group, yes. Someone agreed to sell a given thing for a given price, then posted the item to another group asking for $50 more and a more immediate pickup time-frame. rent-seeking was mentioned in the ensuing argument. 19:51 -!- Dolemite [~scott@96-38-109-185.dhcp.jcsn.tn.charter.com] has quit [Quit: Lost terminal] 20:11 -!- scam [~sicsscam@24.154.71.208] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 21:45 -!- strages [uid11297@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-vhmryucgyewtsoha] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity] --- Log closed Wed May 17 00:00:07 2017
