| kens | I have an electrician doing stuff this morning, so I may disappear without warning :-) | 10:07.58 |
| | paulgardiner : do you think we need to respomd to that Smart Office email (so they know we've seen it) or just leave it to Miles to respond ? I don't think Miles will be able to reply this business day for them. | 10:16.09 |
| paulgardiner | Oh yes, thank kens. I probably should. | 10:18.46 |
| kens | Ah, OK I'll leave it to you then :-) | 10:19.00 |
| henrys | bit of a late start today, had my race yesterday, good thing I can sit at work. | 14:49.33 |
| jogux | henry: how did race go? | 15:06.09 |
| henrys | jogux: really happy with Iâve broken into the top 20% or my age group, at an Ironman thatâs pretty good, a competitive crowd. | 15:07.42 |
| jogux | awesome, well done! | 15:08.00 |
| henrys | s/with/with it/ | 15:08.08 |
| pedro_mac | henry: top stuff - pretty hard going ! | 15:08.23 |
| henrys | thanks guys | 15:09.11 |
| rayjj | henrys: good going | 15:15.06 |
| kens2 | is impressed | 15:16.38 |
| rayjj | I am still not able to compile the company C SDK example, but at least it's finding the compiler. getting: NOTE: Unrecognized Compiler Version: 5040081 | 15:17.36 |
| henrys | for the next few days Iâll pay, the marathon was on a creek path which made for lots of great spectators but all concrete. Ibuprofen rules! | 15:18.08 |
| kens2 | I founf the Commonwealth coverage depressing, the lady swimmers are covering distance at twice the speed I do. Admittedly I was always a sprinter, but even so :-( | 15:31.51 |
| jogux | kens2: yeah... some amazing athletes. the cycling road race was boggling, 14 laps or something (150+km total), I'd have struggled to do 2 laps I think | 15:53.32 |
| | that said, of the 140 riders that started, only 12 actually finished. | 15:54.06 |
| mvrhel_laptop | henrys: nice! | 15:55.35 |
| kens2 | jogux : 35 years ago I could do the same speed as the games swimmers, or better....... | 15:56.48 |
| | Admittedly, not over 800 metres | 15:57.07 |
| jogux | :-) | 15:57.25 |
| kens2 | Like I said, always a sprinter, I used to compete over 100 and 200 metres | 15:57.53 |
| jogux | impressive | 15:58.00 |
| kens2 | Never been any good at distance though. I swim 2 km these days but slowly | 15:59.05 |
| henrys | yes I could have used kens2 swimming ability yesterday. Iâm pretty weak at the swim, but it doesnât help your time much becuase it is such a small fraction of the course time anyway. | 15:59.26 |
| kens2 | henrys : indeed, the swim isn't worth that muhc, not like the running | 15:59.48 |
| henrys | like a lot of people I donât even kick - just enough to keep my legs up, save the legs for later. | 16:00.23 |
| kens2 | The tri-athletesw were in the pool at the weekend and they were only simming about 200 metres, I'm guessing it wasn't real training | 16:00.24 |
| | henrys I don't find using legs tiring | 16:00.53 |
| | arms ache, but not legs | 16:01.02 |
| kens2 | is off for a pizza, night all | 16:08.05 |
| mvrhel_laptop | bye kens2 | 16:08.27 |
| rayjj | grr... I downloaded the "free trial" DS-5 arm toolchain and now it's complaining about "License server machine is down or not responding" | 16:16.42 |
| | getting closer. The stoopid ARM DS-5 "free 30-day evaluation" download installs, but never tells you that you have to register to get an evaluation license :-( | 17:05.08 |
| robin_watts_mac | rayjj: Do we have to use the ARM tools? Can't we use codesourcery? | 17:37.54 |
| | If we are going to be railroaded into doing work for them using a non-open SDK, then they should pay for the SDK. | 17:38.19 |
| rayjj | robin_watts_mac: it's not for them -- it's for customer T. And for now I want to get their junk building with the tools they say to use. | 17:43.25 |
| | robin_watts_mac: I can't even get a quote for the tools from ARM | 17:44.15 |
| henrys | robin_watts_mac: still in chile? | 18:07.55 |
| robin_watts_mac | henrys: yeah, still in the atacama desert. | 18:34.21 |
| | We fly to Santiago/Valparaiso tomorrow. | 18:34.33 |
| | Then on to easter island after that. | 18:34.40 |
| henrys | robin_watts_mac: a subheading in wikepea about Atacama: âComparison to Marsâ, good luck ! | 18:38.20 |
| robin_watts_mac | I just read a really excellent book, called "The Martian" | 18:38.48 |
| | very simple premise (bloke gets stuck on mars, has to wait for rescue), but REALLY well done. | 18:39.14 |
| | Has garnered praise from all sorts of people about it's accuracy etc. | 18:39.27 |
| | Consequently I've been looking around thinking "hmm, this'd make a great location for the movie..." | 18:39.58 |
| henrys | robin_watts_mac: he got stuck there but you go on vacation there and pay for it. What does a glass of water go for? | 18:40.38 |
| robin_watts_mac | All inclusive hotel :) | 18:41.02 |
| | I already took the pain when I paid for it, so it's all free now :) | 18:41.33 |
| henrys | oh cmonâ you and helen need to be out there in a tent with the scorpions | 18:42.29 |
| robin_watts_mac | Too dry for scorpions. | 18:44.26 |
| | And, you've met my wife, right? | 18:44.33 |
| henrys | ;-) have fun robin_watts_mac | 18:46.07 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2014/08/05)>>> | |
