What's the use of saying good morning in slack? I even dislike the habit face to face. As a team we are located near the coffee machine and lots of people we don't know feel the need to say good morning. Which can become quite irritating during development.

Good morning

ajs07:04:17

But your coffee machine is a synchronous moment while Slack is asynchronous so you can control when you wish to be interrupted

ajs07:04:30

Good morning folks

thomas07:04:31

good morning

thomas07:04:24

@gklijs it sounds like that is an argument for offices instead of open plan (which I assume is what you have) and personally I don't like open plan.

gklijs07:04:37

Yes, it’s kind of open plan, but we do have our own place. It’s not as bas as the place I worked before, it’s relatively quit, before we were on al large floor with about 50 people across 5 teams…

Why all this manual greeting? We can write a bot for this.

@borkdude the personal greeting gives it a.... eerrrgh... personal touch 😉

arnout09:04:54

Good morning!

borkdude09:04:15

Good morning

neotyk16:04:33

adding this to my 5:00 cron task: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"text":"Good morning! Thanks @borkdude"}'

neotyk17:04:31

’turlijk

borkdude17:04:42

ok, it works.

neotyk17:04:47

ohhh, look

neotyk17:04:03

how did you get it to recognize @..

borkdude17:04:46

surround it by < > (how are those called anyway in English?)

vijaykiran11:04:14

angle brackets 🙂
