Will 3722 be "Fixed" by the "unified search and browse interface" getting done, bitmap?
2016-03-14 07451, 2016
bitmap
nope
2016-03-14 07452, 2016

I guess we need to come up with a new next step for 3722 now that the mailing lists are gone ;)

kepstin: That's not hard though.

requires some additional work on MBS to expose the /all endpoint
2016-03-14 07442, 2016
Freso
Anyway, I think the next step for that ticket is for CJ_ to implement it in the SOLR project.
2016-03-14 07451, 2016
bitmap
so I told ruchiranga not to implement a UI for that
2016-03-14 07456, 2016
Freso
Okay.
2016-03-14 07418, 2016

my impression is that the results aren't really merged atm - it basically searches multiple things in parallel and returns multiple sets of results?
2016-03-14 07428, 2016
Freso
Should I make a discussion about it on Discourse about "what [people] would like to see here"?
2016-03-14 07400, 2016
Freso
bitmap: Does ruchiranga's code rely on that unified search endpoint?
2016-03-14 07427, 2016
bitmap
no, I told him not to do anything that requires that
2016-03-14 07438, 2016
Freso
It might be easier and saner for CJ_ to just disregard what ijabz may have done for the current SEARCH server.
2016-03-14 07450, 2016
Freso
Though that brings us back to scratch.
2016-03-14 07402, 2016

But eh.

CJ_ bitmap, final thoughts on that?
2016-03-14 07457, 2016
bitmap
I'm not sure what the decision needed was :P
2016-03-14 07420, 2016
Freso
If not, that's what I'm going to go forward with: MBS-3722 being dependent on SOLR project getting finished and SOLR project having a unified search interface thingy.
2016-03-14 07440, 2016
bitmap
sure
2016-03-14 07444, 2016

If someone's unhappy with that, they have about 10 seconds to object.
2016-03-14 07404, 2016

I'll make it so.

tbh, now that the site is indexed, we're really competing with doing a google search for "site:musicbrainz.org some keywords" with this unified search project

Bernie's pretty cool but I think super delegates have screwed him over
kepstin has never really understood how us presidential candidates are chosen
2016-03-14 07451, 2016
LordSputnik
kepstin: each party hosts preliminary votes (from what I can tell, either "primaries" or "caucuses"). The majority vote chooses the Republican candidate. The majority vote plus some extra party elite votes chooses the Democratic candidate
2016-03-14 07429, 2016
LordSputnik
Caucuses seem to be some weird "move around a room" thing, while primaries are more traditional voting
2016-03-14 07421, 2016
LordSputnik
and when they can't be bothered to count the votes anymore, they flip a coin and decide who to assign their delegates to
2016-03-14 07424, 2016
LordSputnik
:P

in canada, each party chooses (in advance, and however they like, but it usually involves a vote by party members and interested registered citizens) someone to be their party leader.
2016-03-14 07456, 2016
kepstin
that leader is then elected as a member of parliament, the same as any other mp
2016-03-14 07401, 2016
LordSputnik
kepstin: that's how it works in the UK
2016-03-14 07406, 2016
kepstin
and the party that wins the most seats picks the prime minister
2016-03-14 07416, 2016
LordSputnik
It's because we basically have the same political system, as does Australia
2016-03-14 07417, 2016

makes sense, canadian system was modeled after uk ;)

uh parliament, prime minister? lol, long live 'murica !
2016-03-14 07446, 2016
kepstin
i think the theory is that the elected members of parliament choose amongst themselves one person to be the prime minister, but in reality with parties the candidates for the position are picked well in advance
2016-03-14 07449, 2016
LordSputnik
gcilou: but I like having a political system which sort of works ;)
2016-03-14 07410, 2016

hehe yeahhh. I guess that's the goal ;)

there's some awkwardness where it's possible that the leader of a party doesn't get elected, but other members of the party do :)

(in that case, usually one of the other members gives up their seat, and a byelection is held where the party leader runs in their place)
