Trolling

  • First item on the agenda: Trolling.
  • John: Can I borrow your dongle?
    • He wants to show off his globe demo.
    • Mish: That has nothing to do with emacs!
    • John: It was written with emacs!
    • It's a spinning globe, backed by real data.
      • John: Real data that I generate on the fly.
  • Andrew: Look at this sticker I got! "Net neutrality, I won't waffle on."
    • Rafe reorganizes the words to make more sense.
  • A fly is trolling us.
    • Rafe: Stay away from my food!
  • Mish: Have we trolled enough?

A Hunter-Gatherer Society

  • There is much discussion as to whether or not "Food" should be an item on the agenda.
  • Rafe: Is Koreana Korean food?
  • Andrew is assigned to getting food, via the nose game. The nose game will be the process for assigning food-gathering for all future meetings.
    • Rafe: We should put that in our bylaws.

Our Project

  • Mish: We're going to make a package by the end of the semeseter.
  • We discuss packages to write.
  • Rafe: Emacs MySpace client.
  • Emacs Starter Kit is too bloated. Mish suggests Penn Starter Kit.
    • Rafe: Is there an emacs mode for LC4?
    • PennSim integration!
  • Mish: Any other ideas?
    • John: Whoa.

Potluck

  • Mish: Zach asked me to host an .emacs init file potluck.
    • Everyone brings their .emacs files.
  • Andrew: I keep getting "emacs quit unexpectedly." But I'm not running emacs.
  • Mish: Give me the dongle.
    • John's spinning globe is no longer projected :(
  • Mish: At some point I want to figure out how to use email!
  • Andrew doesn't organize his .emacs. He does cat >> .emacs whenever he wants to add anything.
