        navap: that one is roomy compared to r'dam.
      • warp: for payment via phone, they want to make it quite complicated.
      • send this form, fax this with id and that.
      • Freso
        Aw.
      • "Not allowed: Parties, Pets"
      • Freso goes to look up Spanish electricity plugs
      • *power sockets
      • ruaok
        same as in .dk, .de.

        > Noticed on your customers page that you wanted to be contacted about new sites that makes use of MusicBrainz. Therefore I wanted to e-mail you and mention that Flattr just launched support for donating money to artists and that they are using MusicBrainz ID
      • hah, cool. ;)
      • Freso
      • ruaok: 3-pins are rarely the same across European countries.
      • ruaok: And even the sockets for the standard 2-pins seem to vary a bit.
      • ruaok
        Freso: .ch and .uk are the noted exceptions.
      • I've never had difficulties outside of those in western europe.
      • Freso
        ruaok: You probably haven't used any 3-pins then. :)
      • kepstin-laptop joined the channel
      • ruaok
        plenty.
      • remember, I grew up with them.
      • Freso
        ruaok: Some countries have the three "in a row", some have the 3rd one protruding from the socket, others have it on the plug (e.g. Denmark).
      • ruaok: So did I.
      • warp
        whatplug.info doesn't quite understand the partial compatibility between .fr and other parts of europe.
      • Freso
        ruaok: I know that I've had problems in France, Turkey, and Italy at least.
      • kepstin-laptop
        arg school wireless
      • navap
        bah, I should really start packing
      • kepstin-laptop needs to get a plug adapter.
      • kepstin-laptop
        warp: navap: have we decided any sort of meeting time/place?
      • warp
        france has a different ground pin compared to the rest of europe, but modern european plugs should fit both in .fr and .nl/.de/etc..
      • kepstin-laptop: no
      • Freso
        kepstin-laptop: I'll probably bring my small collection.
      • kepstin-laptop
        the annoying thing is that I have a cdma phone, so it won't work in europe at all :/
      • navap
        kepstin-laptop: Are you going to wait in the airport for 2 hours for the two of us to arrive?
      • kepstin-laptop
        navap: dunno - might go out for a bit and come back to meet you guys.
      • reoafk joined the channel
      • navap
        If you were in the airport we could meet near my gate when my flight lands at 9:25
      • I don't know what security is like for re-entering the airport, so maybe we should pick some other spot if you're planning on coming back in
      • reosarevok
        navap / Freso: AFAIK we're in two places
      • 8 and 4
      • One paid with our money, one sponsored by UPF
      • kepstin-laptop
        man, this university wireless is annoying... I can't open any web pages atm.
      • reosarevok
        kepstin-laptop: code on riker then :p
      • kepstin-laptop doesn't have a local musicbrainz server on his laptop right now :)
      • Aww
      • kepstin-laptop
        i should fix that, I suppose.
      • requires a fully working internet connection :)
      • reosarevok
      • But still
      • ruaok
        navap: there is a meeting point in the arrivals hall of the airport.
      • use it!
      • reosarevok
        "Details of equipment" includes "bed linen & towels"
      • ruaok
        reosarevok: yeah, freso is just on a stupid questions run
      • Freso
        reosarevok: Refresh?
      • kepstin-laptop
        right, the arrivals always has a place where people can wait without having to go through security :)
      • reosarevok
        :p
      • Freso: I have, didn't help
      • Freso
        reosarevok: I already mentioned that. :p
      • reosarevok
        Since I can read what I want, no problem :p
      • kepstin-laptop
        what's the full address for the apartments, anyways?
      • reosarevok
      • ruaok
        reosarevok: will you please write up a quick guide for how to get there?
      • from the placa?
      • reosarevok
        heh
      • Can try I guess
      • ruaok
        find metro.
      • reosarevok
        Should involve "take a metro, exit here, walk 100 m"
      • ruaok
        ding
      • I normally buy a T10 card when I get to the metro.
      • 10 trips on one card, not terribly expensive.
      • Freso
        Will it be used though?
      • ruaok
        reosarevok: that address is wrong.
      • reosarevok
        Then what's the right one?
      • The linked page doesn't seem to give one
      • voiceinsideyou joined the channel
      • Freso
        One trip to and from the airport - 2 trips. What else do we need it for?
      • ruaok
        Bac de Roda 118, 12º 3ª Barcelona
      • kepstin-laptop
        Freso: between university and apartments?
      • Freso still has no clue about the schedule for the summit, apart that we need to discuss (som of) the agenda.
      • Freso
        kepstin-laptop: Alright.
      • ruaok
        food on saturday is downtown.
      • warp
      • navap
        Isn't the trip from apartment to university just a 15 min walk?
      • warp
        (I can't find a map with zones though)
      • reosarevok
        ruaok: what about the other one?
      • (the 4-people one)
      • voiceinsideyou1 joined the channel
      • ruaok
        navap: might be a little more than that.
      • reosarevok: I couldn't find an address for that one.
      • ping alba, plz.
      • reosarevok
        Ok
      • In any case, unless they have changed it T10 cards can be shared
      • warp
        reosarevok: the T10 for one zone will be sufficient?
      • reosarevok
        warp: checking a map, but most likely
      • Yep, Barcelona is all zone 1
      • warp
        reosarevok: oh, awesome
      • voiceinsideyou joined the channel
      • reosarevok
        Zones 2 etc seem to be suburbs
      • warp nods.
      • navap
        So what's zone 6? France?
      • ocharles
        lol
      • Freso wishes the Danish system was that simple.
      • warp
        oh, the 4-person flat is in Diagonal Mar?
      • ruaok
        it should be walking distance, iirc
      • warp
        bac de roda is 30 minutes walking from Diagonal Mar
      • oh, diagonal mar is apparantly the name for a larger area
      • ruaok
        yes.
      • Bac do Roda is one block off diagonal.
      • ianmcorvidae
        ah, placa catalunya isn't the place I thought it was
      • so it's a bit further, but oh well
      • also, moin all :)
      • ocharles
        hello
      • ruaok
        yeah, its not the place with the hookers and blow.
      • MBJenkins
        ollie: Introduce the EditM monad and MusicBrainzT monad transformer
      • ruaok
        :-)
      • ianmcorvidae
        monads :D
      • ocharles gets more excited about applicative functors these days
      • ocharles
        but yay, monads
      • :)
      • reosarevok
        ruaok: I've added it, but I suck at giving directions so see if it makes any sense http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/MusicBrainz_Summit/...
      • ianmcorvidae
        I'm not as good with applicative :P
      • ocharles
        Applicative functors are closed under composition, but monads aren't. So you can't compose 2 arbitrary monads, but you can compose any arbitrary applicative functors
      • which is more reusable
      • ianmcorvidae
        yeah
      • ocharles
        https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-data/... there I made a functor that can take a constant environment (the 3 sides of the merge), and has a chance of failure (if the merge fails)
      • ruaok
        reosarevok: seems ok to me.
      • warp composes ocharles and ianmcorvidae
      • reosarevok
        Ok
      • ocharles
        and I didn't have to write more than 2 lines! :)
      • ianmcorvidae
        reosarevok: could you link a google map or something showing the route?
      • reosarevok
        lol, didn't think of that
      • Sure
      • ianmcorvidae tends to prefer maps XD
      • ocharles too :)
      • ruaok
        the walk really is quite easy.
      • reosarevok
        ianmcorvidae, added
      • (seems it's closer to 500m than 100m at first - still faster than the metro)
      • kepstin-laptop
        it's really sad that i'm in a fairly high-tech university and the only thing that reliably works on the wireless is irc :(
      • ooh, think I almost got the summit wiki page to load...
      • reosarevok
        ruaok, mailed Alba too
      • reosarevok goes to a housewarming party, back later / tonight
      • ruaok
        thx
      • ianmcorvidae
        ruaok: btw, did you get my most recent ingestr email? (not the long one, the relatively shorter one following :P)
      • warp
        cool, loos like my navigation has (offline) maps for barcelona
      • ianmcorvidae
        I'm wondering when/if I should port it away from perl :)
      • ruaok
        I saw, but I'm totally overwhelmed right now
      • ianmcorvidae
        k
      • ianmcorvidae goes back to setting up my laptop for hopefully getting some work done on the plane :)
      • kepstin-laptop doesn't really have enough battery life on his laptop to do much on the plane :/
