07:17 jreicher dreamreal: thank you for mentioning diataxis. I hadn't come across that before but have "worried" about a lot of the things it mentions.
07:17 jreicher I am very, very fussy with technical documentation. There are probably less than 10 books I've ever read that I thought were any good
10:40 Swayze you've read more than 10 books?
10:40 Swayze *impressed face meme*
10:41 jreicher Some of them had pictures
11:17 dreamreal He read playboy for the pictures, Swayze :D
11:17 dreamreal He's the one
14:03 cheeser playboy has pictures?
14:26 dreamreal I was always kinda annoyed that playboy did actually have some pretty good writers
14:28 GreenResponse apparently that was a porn magazine for well-off educated 1% males
14:32 dreamreal Not sure that's the case: it was pretty popular among the unwashed. But it DID cater to the high end, part of its appeal to the unwashed: they could appreciate the marketing guff around things they could not afford while ogling nekkid ladies.
14:33 GreenResponse yep, look up to the establishment, you filthy scum, it’s American Dream baby!
14:39 cheeser it's like britney spears teaches calculus. lure them in with the pretty. send them away with the lurning.
14:40 GreenResponse yep, sex sells
14:45 dreamreal I wonder how much theoretical physics has changed based on some nerd going "Maybe the hottie secretary will date me if I get a nobel..."
14:48 GreenResponse “got cash?” changes everything…
