lmao

let's plan on having this discussion another time

I think we should use blackboard

and focus on the first workshop for now

get out jonl

lol

but yeah Abenezer_Mamo, I'm assuming that you won't have time to look into the workshop until next week yeah?

so hcwool can do a first pass on one potential version?

We COULD always just use string and a few styrofoam cups

Sure?

Good luck getting that string to Australia

just throwing ideas out there for how to break down work

totally down for wtv

Tony Abbott doesn’t want more people, let alone string

s/.*//

What hcwool meant to say was:

I'll forward something to you guys for Ionic next week

Abenezer_Mamo: sounds good

jonl: are we using ionic creator for the first day workshop?

I think that is a good idea

^

zrl I have to go try it out first before I can give an opinion. I was thinking that hcwool, since he is familiar with it already, could create a first super rough prototype for what that could look like, I could be the first guinee pig, and the we can combine in what Abenezer_Mamo comes up with the following week.

jonl so maestro for first workshop?

i'd encourage you to spend the next 15 minutes playing with it

it's pretty straightforward, in my opinion

^

i think you could get a feel of whether it's a good idea or not before 2:30

Ok, I need to eat first before I pass out

sounds good

don't pass out

I'll make this take precedence over anything else I do then including cohort 2 stuffs

rich zrl

“i forgot to eat lunch”

yuup

jonl: just keep in mind you're responsible for getting all the stuff under "playbook" done by the end of tomorrow in https://github.com/hackedu/meta/issues/119

so prioritize in whichever order makes the most sense.

Yeah we'll be discussing some of that in our chat later today

alright

i assume you'll have an agenda prepared?

i'd like to keep the meeting as short as possible.

jonl, just quickly did we decide on “call everyone“

zrl yeah

hcwool: I don't think so

ok

We need to think of an app that everyone can build with ionic creator

I’ll wait for you to get back before deciding on that

hcwool: sounds good

also Abenezer_Mamo hcwool if you're down to join our chat at 4pm, we'll be in http://partytime.hackedu.us

We're chatting about how to do the collaboration process for the playbook

EST?

PST

yup

thats what I meant

I should be able to

I land 4:00 PST I believe

I’ll work on what that wrapping will look like to angular

Abenezer_Mamo: have you done address book integration with ionic?

yeah that isn’t happening...

re: 12:50:59 PM <Abenezer_Mamo> The ability to add functionality is an incentive for people to learn the programming

I could totally see that

jonl: the issue is implementation

hcwool: I see

hang on, I willl try it out

Re: 12:59:55 PM <Abenezer_Mamo> While they wait for everyone to be on the same page, they can do the boring stuff like signing up for C9 and Github, interesting idea!

jonl: use quote marks, or two messages

hcwool: thanks, good suggestion!

I interpreted that weirdly until I realised your comment was appended

re: 1:14:40 PM <Abenezer_Mamo> Use slack for group communication but text people personally. This creates a bond between you and your members. I would never use slack to PM people. But that's me

^ this is great

but lol@slack

jonl: wait til you read further

I guess I was focusing on the "text people personally. This creates a bond between you and your members. I would never use slack to PM people. But that's me"

yuyup

ok, I'm finally up to date

going to check out ionic now hcwool, lemme know if there are any good resources that I should checkout first

jonl: www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-UwOWB9Io4 is supposed to be good

OK, I’ve been fiddling around with putting JS into an ionic creator project

it will require that the students copy/paste in JavaScript… Which is not optimal.

Some great YouTube channels for Ionic content:

re: 2:58:59 PM <hcwool> jonl: www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-UwOWB9Io4 is supposed to be good

Simon and Nic have really amazing content

^this seems to scary for a beginner

Ah, I haven’t watched it

People recommended it to me

Abenezer_Mamo: Are any of these tutorials at the same level as what we'd expect to be able to run for a first meeting?

And I hate learning from videos so yeah

hahaha no

hcwool: Abenezer_Mamo kk

Abenezer_Mamo: can you add JS through creator?

No

Not as far as i'm aware of at least

But Creator allows you to export the code

Abenezer_Mamo: looks like it only works for UI?

@jonl I usually look at these tutorials and just create my own lessons taking away the bs that makes things difficult

I try to simplify it for people

Abenezer_Mamo: do you have any old ones that I happen to be able to look at?

@jonl essentially

I'll try to dig some up

that struggle when you have an email with 3 different sponsor companies and there are two people named christine from two different companies :|

Hmm, this looks hard: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q...

the thing with ionic it is a LOT of code

Abenezer_Mamo, hcwool: with limited research, ionic doesn't seem super approachable... continuing research

Which is why creator is good

^

But creator is going to make it difficult to add JavaScript

...how so

Well

Well the student is going to have to add the controllers themselves

s/Well//

What hcwool meant to say was: the student is going to have to add the controllers themselves

And they are *probably* going to have questions about wtf angular UI is doing on a single page application

And then we have to tell them what scope is?

Is that too much for a first lesson?

in 30 mutes?

and this: http://imgur.com/W0OMXvS, was exported in 88 lines of code

You play TF2!?

I used to :)

I don’t really play games anymore

haha same story here. Except league. league is not a game. League is life.

hcwool: yeah, do you have the demo code of what that app would look like?

and I'm assuming the controllers won't be setup for them

nope not set up

P.S. I hate JS

so we would need to copy and paste the controllers in and they'd fill in one spot in the controller...

Are you comfortably telling beginners to do that?

hcwool: depends what he controller file looks like. I'm not familiar with angular, could you send me the code for the project you just made?

yeah hangon

Also they would need to do stuff in the terminal

plane is landing now, g2g

And so they would need to setup c9

Gah...

Cya hcwool!

jonl: what's the agenda for the meeting at 4?

so i know what we're talking about

distinguishabledistinguishabledistinguishable

uh

whoops

didn't meant to send that

not sure how that got there

LOL

putting that together right now

one sec

Where is the written objective for the labs program again?

that is an issue in the backlog atm
