02:48 aditsu pdurbin: afaik, OpenJDK doesn't include support for JavaFX, there's a separate OpenJFX project; I don't have it in Gentoo so I don't know if it works
02:48 pdurbin aditsu: does that mean your app doesn't run on Gentoo?
02:49 aditsu pdurbin: it runs, with the Oracle JDK
02:49 pdurbin Ok. I only use openjdk on linux.
02:50 aditsu pdurbin: if you have OpenJFX, it should probably work too
02:52 pdurbin ok, I'm installing openjfx
02:54 pdurbin aditsu: you're right, it seems to run fine
02:56 aditsu awesome :)
02:56 pdurbin aditsu: the about menu is blank
02:57 pdurbin oh wait, now there's a cat. weird
02:57 aditsu you mean the window? no text?
02:57 pdurbin yeah, the window. it's fine now
02:57 aditsu ok, that's my cat Toto
02:57 pdurbin ah, looks like my cat Panther
02:58 aditsu how many cats do you have? I have 4
02:59 pdurbin wow, you're a cat lady. we also have Pather's brother, Tiger
03:03 aditsu 4 is not really cat lady level :)
03:05 pdurbin I dunno. My thought process is... lady with a cat, lady with two cats, cat lady. ;)
03:06 pdurbin It only takes three to make a cat lady.
03:12 pdurbin aditsu: what's your thought process on whether to open source this thing or not?
03:13 aditsu pdurbin: basically.. "what do I get out of it?" - I am considering releasing it for a price, depending on the license
03:13 aditsu for reference: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.en.html
03:17 pdurbin yeah, "what do I get out of it?" is a good consideration
03:17 pdurbin I think the main thing I get is feedback on my code. I learn something.
03:22 aditsu feedback on the features or the actual source code?
03:23 pdurbin the actual source code
03:24 pdurbin I've only been programming professionally for a few years. I'm still learning a lot.
03:30 aditsu I have hardly received any feedback on the source code of my open-source projects
03:32 pdurbin Have you received much feedback on features?
03:33 aditsu yes
03:33 pdurbin How many contributors do you have on your open source projects?
03:35 aditsu some are solo projects, some have a few other contributors
03:35 aditsu are you talking about feedback from other contributors?
03:35 pdurbin yeah, I guess I'm thinking about code review from a team
03:36 aditsu I had that a lot more in a work environment
03:37 aditsu actually one open-source project I was involved in was developed for work
03:37 pdurbin At work it took us a while to get to regular code reviews but I like it.
03:39 aditsu hmm, I can't seem to find it..
03:40 pdurbin I get basically zero feedback on the code of my personal open source projects.
03:40 pdurbin Sometimes I ping people in this channel and they take a look for me. :)
03:44 aditsu ah, found it! https://github.com/imo/SleekXMPP
03:45 pdurbin bear: XMPP ^^
03:46 bear hi
03:46 bear SleekXMPP was written by two friends and I'm now the maintainer - but it's old now compared to other python xmpp libs
03:47 aditsu don't know why it's not showing at all in my activity..
03:47 aditsu bear: oh really?
03:47 bear yes, that github url is not the official one
03:48 aditsu it's a fork I worked on
03:48 bear ah
03:48 pdurbin small world
03:49 bear https://dev.louiz.org/projects/slixmpp
03:49 bear because SleekXMPP for a while was not actively worked on by the author, the Slixmpp folks forked it and started making fixes
03:49 aditsu I see a bear at https://github.com/fritzy/SleekXMPP :)
03:49 bear I backport any security items they find and maintain SleekXMPP only because the book references it
03:50 bear yea
03:50 aditsu that fork makes the whole thing asynchronous, using greenlets, if you're interested
03:51 bear nice
03:51 aditsu but it's not being used anymore
03:52 bear yea, I am not active with the XMPP world anymore - I still watch and help, but not like I used to
03:53 pdurbin bear: oh, I thought you were still in deep.
03:53 bear well, still active in the community but not using it for dayjob
03:54 pdurbin gotcha
03:54 bear at &yet I was working with it daily
03:54 pdurbin everyone have moved to slack :/
03:54 bear here at CircleCI I rarely use it - but still code personal projects with it
03:54 bear yea :/
03:55 aditsu I don't really like the bloated xml nature of xmpp, but I like the general idea (such as the openness, flexibility and interoperability)
21:26 pdurbin I just got this: https://stackoverflow.com/help/privileges/close-questions
21:26 pdurbin so look out
21:26 pdurbin ;)
