zeth | I was a bit tired to hear the django newforms-admin talk, so good to see again | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
MrTopf | I also need to listen to it, I was partly outside the room when recording it | 00:00 |
MrTopf | blip.tv pro actually also has the option to convert it to mp3 | 00:01 |
MrTopf | which might also be sufficient for some talks | 00:01 |
MrTopf | zeth http://blip.tv/file/1084929 | 00:02 |
zeth | lovely | 00:02 |
zeth | very posh intro | 00:03 |
zeth | this one is good to have video | 00:03 |
zeth | his accent is quite strong | 00:03 |
MrTopf | he also shows some code | 00:04 |
MrTopf | I wish the video quality would be better | 00:04 |
MrTopf | but the light situation is usually not that great at such conferences | 00:05 |
xorAxAx | hmm, the accent is strong? | 00:05 |
MrTopf | what would be needed would be a very strong projector and some extra lights for the speaker | 00:05 |
MrTopf | and some wireless mic ;-) | 00:05 |
xorAxAx | it sounds like an average west coast american to me | 00:06 |
MrTopf | :-) | 00:06 |
xorAxAx | with some eastern european flavor | 00:06 |
MrTopf | I don't have problems to understand him | 00:06 |
MrTopf | esp. as I listened to the intro now 10 times because of encoding tests ;-) | 00:06 |
zeth | well, I can never really understand Americans | 00:07 |
zeth | would rather have strong french or german | 00:07 |
xorAxAx | its really nice to discover participants from non-american locations at american events | 00:08 |
zeth | Very nice work MrTopf | 00:08 |
zeth | very good video | 00:08 |
xorAxAx | i think one even often uses such encounters to rant about the american accent | 00:08 |
zeth | lol | 00:09 |
*** ccm|mac has quit IRC | 00:10 | |
zeth | so yeah, back to before, I think britain should be in schengen | 00:16 |
zeth | the joke is of course that Britain is not part of it because it wants to control its own borders, but the UK has more liberal borders than anyone else in Europe | 00:17 |
zeth | Euro currency is harder | 00:17 |
zeth | because we were basically chucked out of it | 00:17 |
xorAxAx | at least they are liberal if you are not a dog :) | 00:19 |
zeth | yup | 00:20 |
Tv | oh that dog policy is kinda funny | 00:21 |
zeth | I thought they had some thing where you can microchip it now? | 00:21 |
zeth | so it doesn't have to go in a cage for six months when you bring a dog in? | 00:22 |
Tv | i don't think those are related | 00:22 |
Tv | the quarantine is for rabies | 00:22 |
Tv | microchips are for identification | 00:22 |
Tv | (got two dogs with chips, have flown alternate routes to avoid Heathrow) | 00:22 |
zeth | oh right, I know nothing about it | 00:22 |
Tv | but like | 00:22 |
Tv | the countries that are actually connected to eachother | 00:23 |
zeth | but I thought if you can prove your dog has only been to non-rabies countries | 00:23 |
Tv | do just fine with rabies | 00:23 |
zeth | well those countries probably have national service | 00:23 |
MrTopf | thanks zeth :) | 00:23 |
zeth | so you can put teenage slaves on the borders | 00:23 |
Tv | i'm sure if they did that, the list of non-rabies countries would include UK and Upper Tatzinikistan | 00:23 |
zeth | and have them shoot dogs | 00:23 |
MrTopf | Tv's talk is actually encoding right now | 00:24 |
Tv | woo | 00:24 |
MrTopf | the git one | 00:24 |
MrTopf | well, it wasn't really about git ;-) | 00:24 |
MrTopf | Version control one | 00:25 |
Tv | figured that would have been a tough sale, for that audience | 00:25 |
MrTopf | but at the office so it might go live tomorrow | 00:25 |
MrTopf | well, we also use wordpress for the blog ;-) | 00:25 |
MrTopf | just use what works | 00:25 |
zeth | well, not my choice of blog | 00:25 |
zeth | I use a django based blog and it is really nice | 00:25 |
Tv | my whole site is docutils rst and some xslt | 00:27 |
Tv | zeth: mmmm, pyconuk talks about fs api and roast (my rst+xslt+etc software, should be published about then), maybe gitosis (my git hosting management software) | 00:29 |
zeth | sounds great | 00:34 |
Tv | roast is pretty neat, it's basically a pluggable processing framework | 00:34 |
zeth | my blog is rst in Django | 00:34 |
Tv | and by then, it should be all about egg entry points etc | 00:34 |
zeth | cool | 00:34 |
Tv | uses docutils as a lib, which is also somewhat of an arcane art | 00:35 |
Tv | adds new directives etc | 00:35 |
Tv | uses lxml for postprocessing, and does atom via microformats implemented by the xslt | 00:35 |
Tv | it's pretty nifty ;) | 00:35 |
MrTopf | as I spend far too much time on video encoding I don't have time to code such things and hence I use wordpress ;-) | 00:36 |
MrTopf | but right now I probably spent most of my time discussing architectural things in the pyogp project. Like convining people that using a class as a function library is not a good thing | 00:38 |
MrTopf | first video is now on the blog btw | 00:50 |
zeth | cool, well done you | 01:09 |
zeth | how many recordings have you got? | 01:09 |
zeth | I mean ones to process in the future? | 01:09 |
MrTopf | actually I don't know right now | 01:10 |
MrTopf | I need to get those form Carsten | 01:10 |
MrTopf | and I there are all those lightning talks | 01:10 |
MrTopf | with lightning talks, maybe 30 | 01:11 |
MrTopf | well, I have 30 here, so maybe 40-50 then ;-) | 01:11 |
MrTopf | glad I know now and know how much work it will be ;-) | 01:12 |
MrTopf | I should give the keynote some priority though | 01:12 |
MrTopf | but quality is rather weak unfortunetaly | 01:12 |
xorAxAx | who held the keynote? | 01:13 |
xorAxAx | guido about py3k? | 01:13 |
xorAxAx | (in that case you could steal it from another conference where he held that keynote and replace the intro) | 01:13 |
zeth | lol | 01:14 |
zeth | I think we maybe ask guido to talk about something else next year | 01:14 |
zeth | so MrTopf that is like one a week until next Europython ;) | 01:15 |
zeth | then you get to start again ;) | 01:15 |
zeth | I wanted to make a podcast, maybe I still will, but the editing thing is what puts me off | 01:19 |
zeth | recording good content is one thing | 01:19 |
zeth | but then you have to learn a load of stuff about audio | 01:20 |
zeth | when you actually are interested in the subject of the podcast | 01:20 |
xorAxAx | hmm, but its really not hard | 01:20 |
xorAxAx | (as long as you actually attempt to learn it - most podcasters probably dont) | 01:21 |
zeth | well I used to play guitar | 01:22 |
zeth | so have basic idea of auido | 01:22 |
zeth | audio | 01:22 |
zeth | but digital audio is very different | 01:23 |
xorAxAx | is it? you basically need headroom :) | 01:23 |
zeth | maybe yeah | 01:23 |
zeth | patience or interest to learn it | 01:23 |
zeth | maybe one day I find a person good at audio and interested in the same topics | 01:24 |
xorAxAx | btw, i recommend trying out cool edit/audition | 01:24 |
xorAxAx | not FOSS, but easy to use and with a lot of things to try | 01:24 |
zeth | I can make the website, and the other person can edit it | 01:25 |
MrTopf | zeth: doing a podcast is not that much work.. depends on the tool maybe | 01:58 |
MrTopf | then again I should do an episode of mine again | 01:59 |
MrTopf | maybe visit some podcamp :) | 01:59 |
MrTopf | like Podcamp Ireland ;-) | 01:59 |
MrTopf | seems that those are mostly in the US | 02:00 |
MrTopf | for Mac OS there's Übercaster which is what I use which is not really a sound editor (but has basic tools for this) but is build around the podcasting workflow | 02:02 |
MrTopf | http://ubercaster.com/ | 02:02 |
MrTopf | I should also upload my photos from EP | 02:04 |
MrTopf | bedtime, good night everbody | 02:16 |
MrTopf | oh, and I meant Hans Rosling's keynote ;-) | 02:16 |
MrTopf | Guido's was recorded by Google I heard | 02:16 |
MrTopf | anyway, cya | 02:16 |
