So the price per task we agreed on for the test tasks is still ok (320 if I remember correctly), but we'll need to finish that other discussion before agreeing 2011-05-17 10:39:45+0000 <antoviaque> on a price for the full time.

You should use ref#69 2011-05-17 10:51:17+0000 <rogerio> I don't want to quit my job now, so maybe I can help using 4 or 6 hours a day doing tasks, and weekends if needed 2011-05-17 10:51:36+0000 <antoviaque> rogerio: I'm wondering, what would give you an equivalent of the safety you'd get from a company in Brazil? 2011-05-17 10:51:51+0000 <da> dachary: ok i'll look at this this afternoon i've gotta go now 2011-05-17 10:52:35+0000 <da> antoviaque: rogerio i need to leave for lunch, i'll be back later and look at the log to see if i can help with your current conversation 2011-05-17 10:52:41+0000 <da> bbl 2011-05-17 10:53:08+0000 <rogerio> here in Brazil for example exists the "unemployment insurance" 2011-05-17 10:53:41+0000 <rogerio> so, if the company fires you, you have this insurance for 4 months 2011-05-17 10:54:23+0000 <antoviaque> I see - is there any way to make you benefit from it within Farsides? 2011-05-17 10:55:42+0000 <rogerio> can Farsides make some kind of guarantee? 2011-05-17 10:56:15+0000 <rogerio> kind 2 months of insurance, just for me to find another job if the project get over 2011-05-17 10:57:00+0000 <antoviaque> It's something to think about yup 2011-05-17 10:57:17+0000 <rogerio> if the project get over, I'll need to find another job very soon and this is not too easy to do here 2011-05-17 10:57:42+0000 <rogerio> or we maybe can work together, but not fulltime 2011-05-17 10:58:31+0000 <rogerio> what do you prefer? fulltime? 2011-05-17 10:58:32+0000 <antoviaque> The way it works (at least in France) for unemployment, is that a portion of the salary is kept on the side, to allow to fund unemployment insurance 2011-05-17 10:59:00+0000 <rogerio> hmm 2011-05-17 10:59:04+0000 <antoviaque> It would be very useful for the project to have at least one full time coder yep 2011-05-17 10:59:18+0000 <antoviaque> So for this I see two possible options: 2011-05-17 10:59:39+0000 <antoviaque> 1) We try to see if there is a way to subscribe to the unemployment insurance scheme in Brazil 2011-05-17 11:01:30+0000 <antoviaque> This way it's paid for and if it happens you are covered 2011-05-17 11:02:26+0000 <rogerio> antoviaque: about the price you told me before: how much would be per month, for a full time job? 2011-05-17 11:02:49+0000 <antoviaque> 2) We can simply use the contractual close in the contract, to warn you 2 or 3 months in advance and give you more time to look for a job 2011-05-17 11:03:40+0000 <rogerio> I understand 2011-05-17 11:03:58+0000 <antoviaque> rogerio: that's the part where we would need to finish discussing the degressivity 2011-05-17 11:04:09+0000 <antoviaque> the idea is to make sure it's faire for everyone 2011-05-17 11:04:14+0000 <antoviaque> fair 2011-05-17 11:04:21+0000 <rogerio> the project can belongs how much time do you thing?

2011-05-17 11:24:22+0000 <antoviaque> what is described is just what was done when the bug happened, not what to fix/do precisely 2011-05-17 11:24:30+0000 <rogerio> dachary: the Ticket #70 2011-05-17 11:25:13+0000 <antoviaque> I'll have to go to lunch very soon *hungry* : ) 2011-05-17 11:25:25+0000 <rogerio> dachary: and also the ticket #64 2011-05-17 11:25:30+0000 <antoviaque> rogerio: you opt for #15 & #71 ?

You should use ref#69 2011-05-17 16:51:27+0000 <da> i should use ref#69 in the message of the commit that's what it means ? 2011-05-17 16:52:56+0000 <antoviaque> btw sorry about that da - when we discussed it I still thought my solution was good ;p ( http://cardstori.es/trac/ticket/69#comment:6 ) 2011-05-17 16:53:10+0000 <dachary> da yes, that means you should use ref#69 in the message of the commit 2011-05-17 16:53:27+0000 <da> dachary: ok 2011-05-17 16:53:41+0000 <da> antoviaque: no worry, perfect way to learn ;) 2011-05-17 16:53:56+0000 <dachary> regarding http://cardstori.es/trac/ticket/69#comment:6 I implemented the solution as part of http://cardstori.es/trac/changeset/93b813ff6826c7b88f51c1f0d642a2512ecd5b95 2011-05-17 16:54:12+0000 <dachary> reading it will probably clarify the comment 2011-05-17 16:54:40+0000 <da> reading it makes the comment even more complicated to me 2011-05-17 16:54:44+0000 <da> :) 2011-05-17 16:55:17+0000 Netoca (Netoca) is now online 2011-05-17 16:55:31+0000 <Netoca> hello everyone 2011-05-17 16:55:57+0000 <da> hello Netoca 2011-05-17 16:56:02+0000 <Netoca> sorry about the meeting...i had to travel in the weekend =( 2011-05-17 16:56:22+0000 <dachary> da :-) 2011-05-17 16:56:27+0000 <dachary> Netoca: \o/ 2011-05-17 16:56:52+0000 <antoviaque> da: instead of setting the z-index in the CSS file, you set it in the javascript function that handles the selection of card with link.css({zIndex: zindex}); 2011-05-17 16:56:56+0000 <antoviaque> hope it helps : ) 2011-05-17 16:57:04+0000 <Netoca> so, how is everything? Did the meeting went well? 2011-05-17 16:57:06+0000 * da wondering if it's still possible to go back to programming after 10 years of forgetting it by doing business bullshit 2011-05-17 16:57:13+0000 <antoviaque> hi Netoca : ) 2011-05-17 16:57:20+0000 <antoviaque> yup, it went well! 2011-05-17 16:57:21+0000 <Netoca> hello antoviaque =) 2011-05-17 16:57:41+0000 <Netoca> nice 2011-05-17 16:57:46+0000 <antoviaque> Netoca: cf http://farsides.com/blog/activity/p/617/ 2011-05-17 16:57:57+0000 <antoviaque> you can also find a link to read the meeting log there 2011-05-17 16:58:02+0000 <antoviaque> if you're interested :D 2011-05-17 16:58:49+0000 <Netoca> I'm checking it out right now 2011-05-17 16:58:59+0000 <antoviaque> if you have questions don't hesitate 2011-05-17 16:59:48+0000 <Netoca> Ok, thanks! 2011-05-17 16:59:54+0000 <antoviaque> :) 2011-05-17 17:03:57+0000 <dachary> da: the idea is basically that it's more consistent to do it in js because there already are many z-index manipulations in js for this area of the HTML page. 2011-05-17 17:06:03+0000 <da> dachary: thx, i get the idea. I'm fighting with the syntax of javascript actually, that's my first obstacle. It's kind of yiddish for me right now 2011-05-17 17:06:22+0000 <dachary> ââ«××Ö·××¢× ××× 2011-05-17 17:07:00+0000 <da> mazel tov, definitely 2011-05-17 17:07:30+0000 <Netoca> I liked the set of priorities of the game, i think it's the best one too. Following it will make the game good and easy to play =) 2011-05-17 17:07:41+0000 <antoviaque> Netoca: :) 2011-05-17 17:07:41+0000 <dachary> da since you already read yiddish, am I to understand that your comment means JS is easy to read ? 2011-05-17 17:07:47+0000 <dachary> ahahah 2011-05-17 17:07:48+0000 <antoviaque> Netoca: glad you like it 2011-05-17 17:08:20+0000 <Netoca> =) 2011-05-17 17:08:26+0000 <antoviaque> Netoca: Actually if you spot things that would help attaining those priorities and that aren't already marked in the tickets, don't hesitate to add it : ) 2011-05-17 17:08:56+0000 <antoviaque> http://cardstori.es/trac/report/9 http://cardstori.es/trac/report/10 http://cardstori.es/trac/report/11 2011-05-17 17:09:44+0000 <Netoca> Ok, I'll look into it too and think about it. If I think in anything that might be useful I'll be sure to tell you 2011-05-17 17:09:52+0000 <romulo> hi there 2011-05-17 17:09:53+0000 <da> dachary: you're right, there is a flaw in the logic here, haha 2011-05-17 17:10:09+0000 <dachary> da I'm glad you fell in the trap ;-) 2011-05-17 17:11:34+0000 <da> bbl, going to play on the wii with my nephew 2011-05-17 17:12:03+0000 <romulo> antoviaque, how you classify tasks as 1/2 day or full day? 2011-05-17 17:12:54+0000 <romulo> i'd rather work on full day tasks initially 2011-05-17 17:13:36+0000 <antoviaque> That's up to you : ) 2011-05-17 17:13:49+0000 <romulo> was #62 and #64 full or half? 2011-05-17 17:14:00+0000 <romulo> (trying to save money for a new computer) 2011-05-17 17:14:53+0000 <antoviaque> Since you can allocate about 4 hours per day now, you can either chose a set of tasks that take you about 1/2 day every day, or 1 full day every two days 2011-05-17 17:15:15+0000 <antoviaque> ah, but you're able to work the equivalent of a full time job? 2011-05-17 17:15:28+0000 <romulo> that really depends on the task 2011-05-17 17:16:13+0000 <antoviaque> yup 2011-05-17 17:17:22+0000 <antoviaque> actually because it's the beginning, we only assign one very small task - but for a full day job, once the learning curve passed, it would likely be several tasks per day 2011-05-17 17:18:39+0000 <antoviaque> But it depends on the tasks themselves - you try to approximate the time it will take you (which will be easier once you'll be used to the codebase). For a half day of work you'd take on half of the workload that you would for one full day 2011-05-17 17:20:01+0000 <antoviaque> To answer your question about the tasks you've done so far, how much time did you spend on each? 2011-05-17 17:20:42+0000 <antoviaque> I assumed it was half days, but I may have assumed wrong, since it's true that we didn't say it explicitely 2011-05-17 17:20:43+0000 <romulo> on the tasks itself? Really short time. On the docs, setup, testing and digging code? More than 2/3 hours =P 2011-05-17 17:21:16+0000 <antoviaque> Yep, taking into account the time you've spent on the docs, setup,etc. - all included 2011-05-17 17:21:48+0000 <romulo> i'd say full time on the first task, and like 4 hours on this second one 2011-05-17 17:21:58+0000 <antoviaque> ok 2011-05-17 17:23:02+0000 <antoviaque> so for those two tasks we say 1.5 day, and from now on you select work for half a day each day? Or are you able to work the equivalent of a full time? 2011-05-17 17:23:40+0000 <antoviaque> let me know if anything doesn't sound fair 2011-05-17 17:25:53+0000 <romulo> It sounds fair enough. I will try (if possible) to get full time tasks. If not, i can keep doing the half time ones 2011-05-17 17:26:31+0000 <antoviaque> ok then 2011-05-17 17:27:45+0000 <antoviaque> In this case, let me know in the morning when you want to take on a full day task (and then mark it in your report for David to know for the payments) - sounds good? 2011-05-17 17:28:20+0000 <romulo> yeah =] 2011-05-17 17:28:25+0000 <antoviaque> perfect! 2011-05-17 17:28:36+0000 <dachary> diner time, bbl 2011-05-17 17:28:38+0000 <antoviaque> da: ok for you? 2011-05-17 17:36:44+0000 <romulo> antoviaque, will be back later. Class now =P 2011-05-17 18:04:34+0000 <da> antoviaque: ok for me, i'll update that in buddypress 2011-05-17 19:53:04+0000 Avek (Avek) is now online 2011-05-17 19:53:20+0000 <Avek> hello 2011-05-17 20:12:49+0000 <dachary> Avek: hi 2011-05-17 21:15:55+0000 <Netoca> I got to go guys 2011-05-17 21:16:10+0000 <Netoca> Be back tomorrow =) 2011-05-17 21:26:27+0000 <Avek> I posted my first update in the group 2011-05-17 21:51:22+0000 antoviaque (antoviaque) is now online 2011-05-17 22:20:09+0000 romulo (romulo) is now online 2011-05-17 22:20:13+0000 <romulo> hi there =] 2011-05-17 22:30:00+0000 <romulo> tartarugafeliz, antoviaque, dachary: ping? 2011-05-17 22:30:10+0000 <dachary> pong 2011-05-17 22:30:17+0000 <romulo> oh great, you here =] 2011-05-17 22:30:21+0000 <dachary> :-D 2011-05-17 22:30:30+0000 <romulo> http://cardstori.es/trac/ticket/ 2011-05-17 22:30:30+0000 <dachary> working on the credits display 2011-05-17 22:30:33+0000 <romulo> ops,http://cardstori.es/trac/ticket/21 2011-05-17 22:30:41+0000 <romulo> lacks a bit of explanation 2011-05-17 22:31:05+0000 <dachary> romulo: +1 2011-05-17 22:31:35+0000 <romulo> Im not sure if I am supposed to send emails everytime those things happen or what 2011-05-17 22:32:00+0000 <dachary> this actually is a complex ticket 2011-05-17 22:32:26+0000 <romulo> yeah, i guess. Innocent Romulo for accepting it. 2011-05-17 22:32:50+0000 <dachary> ahahah 2011-05-17 22:32:57+0000 <romulo> feels like doing something else now 2011-05-17 22:33:01+0000 <romulo> mainly because the art is not ready 2011-05-17 22:33:13+0000 <dachary> romulo: you need to discuss the details with antoviaque and extract detailed specifications from him 2011-05-17 22:33:35+0000 <romulo> Yeah. We should make bug reports explanation *mandatory* 2011-05-17 22:33:38+0000 <dachary> romulo: more importantly, there needs to be a precise definition of the expected behavior 2011-05-17 22:33:46+0000 <romulo> exactly 2011-05-17 22:34:00+0000 <romulo> We should start doing like gnome bugzilla asks 2011-05-17 22:34:18+0000 <dachary> that being said, there is a lot you could do to prepare the ground for the implementation even before knowing what is desired exactly 2011-05-17 22:34:18+0000 <romulo> What happened, whats wrong, what to expect, suggestions. 2011-05-17 22:34:37+0000 <romulo> enlight me 2011-05-17 22:35:27+0000 <dachary> romulo: for starters, try to send an HTML mail with images. If you can do that, you've made valuable progress. No matter what happens with this ticket, you'll need to do this, won't you ? 2011-05-17 22:36:11+0000 <romulo> gotcha 2011-05-17 22:36:55+0000 <dachary> sometimes you're blocked because there is no way to figure out something required and you have to wait for specifications. I think you're not in such a case for this ticket and you can start work while asking antoviaque for clarifications. 2011-05-17 22:37:01+0000 <romulo> sending a email first, then html embedded. 2011-05-17 22:37:13+0000 <romulo> Yeah, you right 2011-05-17 22:37:19+0000 <dachary> :-) 2011-05-17 22:37:28+0000 <romulo> thanks for the cheering :D 2011-05-17 22:37:36+0000 <dachary> and testing if the mail is sent as expected is going to be a little tricky. 2011-05-17 22:37:59+0000 <romulo> hmm, maybe sending a local copy? 2011-05-17 22:38:17+0000 <dachary> Yes. And testing /var/spool/mail/XXXX 2011-05-17 22:38:25+0000 <dachary> maybe 2011-05-17 22:38:26+0000 <romulo> yep 2011-05-17 22:38:33+0000 <romulo> will you be around 2011-05-17 22:38:34+0000 <romulo> ? 2011-05-17 22:38:38+0000 <dachary> not sure how to approach this in a way that is reliable 2011-05-17 22:38:41+0000 <romulo> gotta go home, brb in a few minutes 2011-05-17 22:38:50+0000 <dachary> I will be around for the next hour yes 2011-05-17 22:38:55+0000 <romulo> okay =] 2011-05-17 22:39:31+0000 <dachary> If you figure out a way to test that works on a Debian / Ubuntu machine and that issues a warning (like "SKIPPING MAIL TEST BECAUSE NOT UBUNTU / DEBIAN" ) this will be acceptable. 2011-05-17 22:39:47+0000 <dachary> Trying to test in a cross OS way would be a nightmare. 2011-05-17 22:43:20+0000 <romulo> ok fine, i use ubuntu anyway :P 2011-05-17 22:47:53+0000 <romulo> dachary, should i fix the \x on the last patch and mark it as fixed? 2011-05-17 22:49:00+0000 <dachary> romulo: yes, please fix the \x . You have a gitorious repository, don't you ? 2011-05-17 22:49:43+0000 <romulo> no, gitorious failed on me. It lacks a very simply explanation about how to clone http://cardstori.es/cardstories.git and keep it as MY repository. Im still messing with it 2011-05-17 22:52:13+0000 <romulo> also, im going to fill a new ticket (if there is none for that) about a test for invite through email. 2011-05-17 22:52:19+0000 <romulo> btw, brb soon, gotta go 2011-05-17 22:55:52+0000 <dachary> k 2011-05-17 22:57:19+0000 <dachary> romulo: once you fixed \x assign the ticket back to me but don't close it. I'll commit your patch with a comment that will close the ticket when the changeset reaches the git repository at cardstori.es 2011-05-17 23:26:08+0000 <romulo> back 2011-05-17 23:29:02+0000 tartarugafeliz (tartarugafeliz) is now offline 2011-05-17 23:29:05+0000 <romulo> dachary, using \x makes it automatically unicode - or non convertible 2011-05-17 23:32:01+0000 <dachary> hop 2011-05-17 23:32:17+0000 <dachary> romulo: let me check 2011-05-17 23:34:41+0000 <dachary> romulo: in test_game.py 2011-05-17 23:34:42+0000 <dachary> @defer.inlineCallbacks 2011-05-17 23:34:43+0000 <dachary> def test01_create(self): 2011-05-17 23:34:45+0000 <dachary> there is 2011-05-17 23:34:51+0000 <dachary> sentence = u'SENTENCE \xe9' 2011-05-17 23:35:11+0000 <dachary> is it not the kind of test you need ? 2011-05-17 23:35:12+0000 <romulo> what i mean is. If you prepend the text with u, you make the string unicode 2011-05-17 23:35:28+0000 <dachary> or in tests/test_service.py 2011-05-17 23:35:29+0000 <romulo> hence, no conversion is needed. If you pass a string with accent, the test will convert and then do it. 2011-05-17 23:35:46+0000 <dachary> hum 2011-05-17 23:36:24+0000 <dachary> let me check your test again 2011-05-17 23:43:51+0000 <dachary> romulo: I wrote my thoughts in http://cardstori.es/trac/ticket/64#comment:3 2011-05-17 23:43:55+0000 <dachary> what do you think ? 2011-05-17 23:45:14+0000 <dachary> utf-8 handling in python is a little tricky 2011-05-17 23:45:21+0000 <romulo> let me check 2011-05-17 23:46:50+0000 <romulo> i tested decode() first and it fails if the string is already unicode 2011-05-17 23:47:09+0000 <romulo> i know i test for it using isinstance() but it really should make no difference to use decode() or unicode() 2011-05-17 23:47:15+0000 <romulo> just telling from what i read on the manual 2011-05-17 23:49:10+0000 <romulo> maybe the difference lies in the return (since unicode() is stable and does not modify the original variable) 2011-05-17 23:51:42+0000 rogerio (rogerio) is now online 2011-05-17 23:55:46+0000 <dachary> romulo: the key is that you receive a str which really is unicode inside and you need to decode it 2011-05-17 23:56:34+0000 <dachary> I don't remember from the top of my head if unicode(x, 'utf-8') is *exactly* the same as x.decode('utf-8') let me check 2011-05-17 23:57:49+0000 <romulo> dachary, afaik -> http://docs.python.org/howto/unicode.html
