This week on the panel Stephan is away, but we do have myself, Kevin and Patrick; hi, Kev, hi Patrick. Kevin: Howdy, howdy. Patrick: Hey, guys. Louis: How’s it going? Kevin: It’s going okay. Patrick: Doing good, listening to some Bach (laughter), you know, keeping it real, it’s busy times. Louis: We did some comments from users about the temporary typo in the title of the last post, it was spelled Bachbone.js, and I suggested — we were talking before the show and I suggested that we should — someone should write Bachbone.js just to make that make sense, make it about composing Baroque music in JavaScript, it would be awesome. Anyway, I spent the weekend at Rails Camp out in Adelaide, that was a lot of fun. Patrick: Oh, yeah? Louis: I spent the weekend hacking in a cafeteria full of other nerds, it was lots of fun. Kevin: Cool. Patrick: Very cool, very cool. Did you make any meaningful new connections or meet any new cool people? Louis: Yeah, absolutely, I met a lot of cool people there. I spent the weekend sort of working on — I don’t know if you remember the Google AI challenge, the most recent one with Ants? Patrick: Okay, yeah. Louis: You saw this thing? Yeah, so someone put up a server on the first day, they built this little server in Rails that you could upload a button; they’d play against each other, so a few of us started hacking at that. I started out as being, oh, let me have a quick look at this and see how it works, see how the bots work, and then 16 hours later I hadn’t moved (laughs). Patrick: Wow. Louis: Then I went to bed. So I spent the whole weekend, yeah, pretty much working on getting an ant to be able to find out where it was going. Patrick: Yeah, it sounds like it was quite an event because the website says, “Starts on the afternoon of Friday, January 13th, and runs until midday Monday the 16th,” so it must really have been running constantly and keeping everyone busy. Louis: It pretty much was. Not a lot of us slept very much, let’s just say that. Patrick: Well, I guess depending on how you camp. Louis: Yeah. Patrick: If camping includes sleep for you then it might not have been a camp, but if camp is just constant, you know, slumber party energy and no sleep, then that’s what this one was. Louis: Yeah. So, anyway, if anyone out there is interested in Rails or Ruby and there’s a Rails Camp coming up near you, I strongly recommend it, it was a lot of fun and you get to meet cool people, so check it out. Patrick: Yeah, their website is railscamps.com. Louis: Yep, absolutely. Alright, so with that aside maybe we can dive straight into this [...]
