00:26 <dos1> Oksana: good luck! on what topic is it?

00:29 <DocScrutinizer05> natural thermic convection

00:29 <DocScrutinizer05> ;-)

00:29 <Oksana> Colourful Fluid Dynamics. Natural convection. Open-ended channel. Cooling of PV panels in double-skin fa\c{c}ade

00:31 <Oksana> Thank you ;-)

02:50 <Oksana> It seems that one week of sleepy-barely-moving-forward after noisy-airplanes-jump-to-USA-and-back is too much of a luxury

03:09 <DocScrutinizer05> I think it's a rather positive critic :-)

03:10 <DocScrutinizer05> was it a sort of tst?

03:10 <DocScrutinizer05> test even

03:15 <Oksana> Presentation

03:15 <Oksana> Most people make them in Powerpoint, I made it in Latex Beamer. It was heavily based on the one from previous year, so no wonder that there were way too many background-slides

03:16 <DocScrutinizer05> hehehe

03:17 <DocScrutinizer05> we're just about to draft the talk for cccamp

03:17 <DocScrutinizer05> similar considerations/concerns

03:18 <Oksana> Is there a public playground to have a look at the draft?

03:18 <pabs3> my favourite presentation was one done in vim :)

03:19 <DocScrutinizer05> there's not even a plan for a draft yet ;-)

03:20 <Oksana> One plus for Latex (against Powerpoint): you do not have to worry about pictures going corrupt. Microsoft Office has the terrible habit of taking picture, chewing on it, and remembering only the chewed-down-scaled-down version instead of original-high-resolution

03:20 <DocScrutinizer05> I'm just throwing unfiltered thought at Werner

03:22 <DocScrutinizer05> (MS Office) I'd think that's one of the more friendly features in has

03:22 <Oksana> ;-) /me would be glad to see the draft, when there is one.../ Are there any Latex-pastebins which are also online-Latex-compilers? They could make a JS to compile-on-user's-CPU, since compiling-Latex-on-webserver would require too much CPU time

03:23 <DocScrutinizer05> I've seen it eating 180 pages of thesis, of course only for students that had only *one* backup of last week and didn't notice the damage been done long before and again and again

03:24 <Oksana> It's space-friendly, sure. But when you want to scale-up the picture, and see only the chewed-down 10%-sized version of it... Latex points directly: here is the original file, I didn't edit it at all

03:26 <DocScrutinizer05> it simply had blank pages, still 180. or rather 170, plus 10 with actual content

05:42 <Wizzup_> Oksana: those exist, sharelatex

06:30 <Oksana> Thanks ;-) Pock me when there is a draft of presentation to look at :-)

06:31 <Oksana> Poke*

06:32 <DocScrutinizer05> sure

11:48 <wpwrak> Oksana: will be a while. for now, all we need it a summary. then i have two months to make the actual presentation ;-)

17:45 <DocScrutinizer05> what been THE wire? 8-gauge?

17:46 <DocScrutinizer05> (Australians will know)

17:46 <DocScrutinizer05> when we need wire, we should learn from the experts ;-)

17:47 <DocScrutinizer05> nm, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_8_wire

17:49 <DocScrutinizer05> ooh, New Zealand. Sorry Aussies ;-)
