01:37 pdurbin_m Brandon Bloom on Twitter: "If you watch Rich Hickey's latest talk and can still defend SemVer or similar, then please write either a lot more or a lot less software.": https://mobile.twitter.com/BrandonBloom/status/805168092108070912
01:41 pdurbin that talk being this one: Spec-ulation Keynote - Rich Hickey - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyLBGkS5ICk
02:08 dotplus I don't like video. tldwatch; ? I thought SemVer was generally accepted, but I've heard Hickey is smart and it sounds like this is convincingly anti?
02:20 pdurbin dotplus: I'm still watching. Only 20 minutes in. :)
02:33 pdurbin dotplus: around 30:00 he says "now we get really rant-y" and is starting to talk about semver more
05:52 sivoais haven't watched or read too much about SemVer, but the most reasonable take I've seen is SemVer is a tool, but doesn't replace actually reading the Changelogs of your dependencies. A number can't tell you much on its own since each person's idea of scale is different.
13:30 pdurbin dotplus: I'm not a huge fan of video either (but I am a huge fan of audio). I assume you'd rather read, like this guy (who I agree with): http://matthiasnehlsen.com/blog/2014/10/15/talk-transcripts/
13:42 pdurbin dotplus sivoais: maybe you could give a thumbs up or comment on this issue I just opened: Spec-ulation Keynote by Rich Hickey at Clojure/conj 2016 · Issue #28 · matthiasn/talk-transcripts - https://github.com/matthiasn/talk-transcripts/issues/28
20:13 sivoais joined #sourcefu
21:43 pdurbin Any thoughts on funding a transcription? It's being discussed in that issue.
23:58 pdurbin A new comment just came in: "Rich typically does not post his slides as he prefers them to be viewed in the context of the talk." Bummer.
