lobbes: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/ossasepia/2020-04-26#1025274 << I definitely fell off the world a tad in April. I did get caught up with saltmine debt though. I'm also current again with the logs and most of the blogs, though turns out I let lobbesblog.com expire (had to email them and am waiting to hear back, but the server it pointed to is still active: 104.244.76.215)

lobbes: I'm planning to get my month review out tomorrow. I'm going to continue the thread from here into there. (I'm a bit late with this as well..)

cruciform: diana_coman, thanks for the feeback on the agenda & log summary - very helpful!
diana_coman: cruciform: you're welcome.
diana_coman: lobbes - I guess I'll read all about it in the review & plan; otherwise from here so far it seems rather as initially predicted that dropping the shorter-term plans & reviews just works as it always "worked" - to not get anywhere.
jfw: diana_coman: I didn't start yet on my week's review (there's reasons!!); it'll be out by tomorrow.
diana_coman: jfw: out of reasons by tomorrow? lolz
diana_coman: apparently planning and reviewing is not that special - the more painful/impossible/unreasonable!!!! one finds it, the more... one needs it, in all likelihood.
jfw: I had a chat with parents, noting that medical insurance had been on my agenda for weeks now but I still couldn't manage to care about it. In the end, mom worries about why I'm quite so allergic to this sort of paperwork, websitelogins etc., but dad will take on some of the administrative work, in return for some computer help (that he'd been waiting to ask for anyway). So that seems to work out
jfw: nicely
diana_coman: lol
diana_coman: jfw: so dunno, go around the town and find others who might do stuff for you in exchange for computer help? if it's a working model, at least use it for all it's worth!
jfw: hey, that's the "generalized IT consulting" right?
jurov: diana_coman: with ben_vulpes
diana_coman: oh, is that it? I had a sort of ...less barter, more commerce image of it, lol
diana_coman: jurov: oh, hi; I had no idea ben_vulpes was still on it at all; anyway, what do you plan with it, if you don't mind me asking?
jfw: diana_coman: now there's a thought, maybe people will pay in work what they wouldn't pay in cash
jurov: it has not crystallized yet, mostly support some interesting projects around V.
diana_coman: jurov: so do you have a team of people or some ongoing projects or what do you have in mind? is communication going through you only or is there some other means/place for it?
diana_coman: jfw: they generally would, with the caveat of what "work" might mean, eh.
jurov: diana_coman: if there was, are you interested in joining it?
diana_coman: jurov: without knowing what "it" was, I can't possibly say; the reason why I'm asking you all those questions is to figure out what "it" is in the first place, really
jfw: hi jurov. I'm curious as well as I've been digging into TRB lately. I've been active here since around last September if you don't know me.
diana_coman: sadly atm I'm a bit rushed as usual on Fridays but maybe we do get to talk a bit more tomorrow or ~any other day really
diana_coman: I'll read the logs ofc, anyway.
diana_coman will have to go in ~5 min
jurov: "it" isn't anything concrete yet
jfw: diana_coman: indeed, quite the caveat.
