<oriansj>littlebobeep: or a cat attacking the keyboard.
<muurkha>a cat that can type /nick
<stikonas>typing /nick is not necessary
<oriansj>muurkha: hey, it is a really impressive cat; it has thumbs
***stikonas is now known as stikonas2
***stikonas2 is now known as stikonas
<stikonas>I can just change nick by typing in textbox and pressing Enter
<oriansj>I mean, I have no way of proving that their cat doesn't hack the Gibson for the lolz ;-p
<oriansj>but to the point on .net-core; from a high level it looks like there might be a path but we don't know because no one bothered to do the work yet.
<pabs3>I note that Microsoft is big on supply chain security these days, so it might not be hard to talk them into making C#/F#/etc properly bootstrappable
<oriansj>pabs3: well the State of Michigan is the leading state for Cyber security and has very good technical people (like me) working for them and the top development priority is (checks notes) for me to write a program in C# (.net-core) to read crap from Jira and generate an Excel spreadsheet and outlook messages.... [f&%k so much for real security work this month...]
<pabs3>whee
<pabs3>hope you didn't lose any data in the recent outage
<oriansj>pabs3: we don't use their cloud offering because it doesn't comply with CMS requirements
<pabs3>ah, good
<oriansj>also our offline crypto-malware procedure would have limited our losses to 7 days at most for low priority systems like Jira
<oriansj>those curious to see the crazy shit they have me assigned, will probably see it go up here: https://github.com/oriansj-som in the next week or so
<j-k[m]><unmatched-paren> "j-k: are you on guix?" <- no, on nix :) but I keep an eye on the guix work
<j-k[m]>I started packaging pnet but it got a bit upset about the code in the engineering dir. The readme says there's a script `./madcow` to help you out with setting up dependencies etc but I couldn't find that in the repo
<oriansj>j-k[m]: well I believe you can find it here: https://github.com/mharasimowicz/pnet/blob/master/madcow
