        let me call digital west and have them reboot it.

      • ruaok
        about a year ago when it was happening all over, it was really really odd to experience who barrios doing this.

        you’re too touristy?

        I was riding my bike fairly late in the evening and I would go from sections of barrios to barrios.
      • 2015-09-29 27224, 2015

      • ruaok
        and people would fade in and out. really surreal.
      • 2015-09-29 27229, 2015

      • ruaok
        no, not touristy at all.

        little old catalan ladies and stoners all over the place.

        thanks scooby. you were one of the old skool servers.
      • 2015-09-29 27245, 2015

        you'll probably need to recover some keys and various other bits, zas

        once taz is up, we'll need to jump through a pile of hoops.
      • 2015-09-29 27217, 2015

      • ruaok
        right now scooby has a connection to the outside world. none of our servers have that now.
      • 2015-09-29 27228, 2015

      • ruaok
        we'll need to setup an iptables tunnel to taz.
      • 2015-09-29 27231, 2015

      • ruaok
        that is one task.
      • 2015-09-29 27245, 2015

      • ruaok
        the second task is to setup an rsync server as well.
      • 2015-09-29 27202, 2015

      • ruaok
        rsycn is what OSUOSL uses to mirror our FTP site.
      • 2015-09-29 27211, 2015

      • ruaok
        scooby was data.mb.org
      • 2015-09-29 27217, 2015

      • ruaok
        OSUOSL is ftp.mb.org
      • 2015-09-29 27222, 2015

      • zas
        i think rsync was almost set, we just need to check it works
      • 2015-09-29 27211, 2015

      • ruaok
        great. once all that works and is set, we'll need to install some SSH keys onto astro. astro copies the data dumps to the FTP server.
      • 2015-09-29 27218, 2015

      • zas
        i'll finish with nagios basic setup tomorrow morning, and we'll proceed to restore services from dead scooby on taz
      • 2015-09-29 27225, 2015

      • ruaok
        we'll need to have it copy of taz instead.
      • 2015-09-29 27234, 2015

      • ruaok
        perfect.
      • 2015-09-29 27251, 2015

      • 2015-09-29 27200, 2015

        then we brought in bender.
      • 2015-09-29 27217, 2015

      • ruaok
        and then we decided that we needed to be closer in SLO.
      • 2015-09-29 27258, 2015

      • ruaok
        stimpy and dexter were donated. shortly after that scooby "found" his way to us.
      • 2015-09-29 27211, 2015

      • ruaok
        and then we went to digital west.

        yeah, the score that the whole movie is remembered by.

      • Gentlecat
        alastairp: oh, and "advanced topics in smc" is literally machine learning
      • 2015-09-29 27239, 2015

      • alastairp
        lol
      • 2015-09-29 27253, 2015

      • alastairp
        yeah, from the list of topics it kinda sounded like that
      • 2015-09-29 27203, 2015

      • Gentlecat
        we just have a list of different algorithms that we need to describe/discuss every week
      • 2015-09-29 27214, 2015

      • Gentlecat
        I think I should pick SVM?
      • 2015-09-29 27215, 2015

      • alastairp
        right
      • 2015-09-29 27220, 2015

        and what machine learning isn't?
      • 2015-09-29 27200, 2015

      • alastairp
        well, some “machine learning” is just linear regression
      • 2015-09-29 27202, 2015

      • alastairp
        which is easy
      • 2015-09-29 27215, 2015

      • ruaok
        yeah, no. not so much. :)
      • 2015-09-29 27231, 2015

      • alastairp
        svm has an algorithm that you apply to transform the data into another dimension so that you can draw a straight line
      • 2015-09-29 27238, 2015

      • alastairp
        I still don’t understand why it works
      • 2015-09-29 27248, 2015

      • ruaok
        oh, that totally makes sense.
      • 2015-09-29 27255, 2015

      • alastairp
        seriously
      • 2015-09-29 27255, 2015

      • ruaok
        drawing straight lines is easy. :)
      • 2015-09-29 27225, 2015

      • ruaok
        once I started looking a cosine transforms the whole idea behind transforms really clicked.
      • 2015-09-29 27226, 2015

      • alastairp
        “in our reality we can’t really separate the data, so we just transform it into a different reality where it’s easier”
      • 2015-09-29 27233, 2015

      • ruaok
        YES, THAT!
      • 2015-09-29 27252, 2015

      • ruaok
        such a lovely, tasty and mindbending way to solve problems.
      • 2015-09-29 27255, 2015

      • alastairp
        and that is literally the entire svm algorithm

      • 2015-09-29 27204, 2015

      • alastairp
        yes
      • 2015-09-29 27212, 2015

      • ruaok
        analog equipment sucks at being digital.
      • 2015-09-29 27220, 2015

      • ruaok
        but that is how you make a square wave out of sine waves.
      • 2015-09-29 27204, 2015

      • alastairp
        my best eye opener is the bit where the maths of turning square waves into sinewaves creates echoes at multiples of the fundamental frequency
      • 2015-09-29 27208, 2015

      • alastairp
        and so you lowpass it
      • 2015-09-29 27226, 2015

      • alastairp
        and you end up with an exact analog representation (according to the sampling theorem)
      • 2015-09-29 27232, 2015

      • ruaok
        pile on hack on another. :)
      • 2015-09-29 27218, 2015

      • alastairp
        and therefore anyone who shows you a picture of closer together samples for high quality digital audio doesn’t know what they’re talking about
