rsh7: yep, okay. Would tomorrow afternoon be good for you?
zas
but at mom's house, which is trying to win the price of the worse internet connection of the world... currently on crappy 4G, because DSL is even worse...
ruaok stifles a your mom joke
;)
btw, just made a bunch of server upgrades at hetzner
samj1912: if you have a bit of time tomorrow, we can try to add a SOLR node, and review/refine the installation process
samj1912
yo
ill be travelling back home
should be free in the evening
zas
nothing urgent
ruaok: about hetzner VMs performance stats, i don't think it is very obvious atm, because we compensated with different weights, i'll compare with the new node we'll add, and restore equal weights to have proper measurements
samj1912 still can't believe its been almost 2 years since he started working on Picard
Freso
samj1912: :)
reosarevok
So in a year you'll put out 3.0?
samj1912
with Picard 2.0 and Solr out in prod
I have something to share
I am moving to London for a job next month and won’t be an official contractor anymore. This move is due to some personal goals and family responsibilities.
Freso
:(
samj1912
That said, I wanna add I can never let go of metabrainz or Picard. I will be around as a volunteer, reviewing, fixing stuff. :D
Freso
🙌
samj1912
Plus, I have come to associate Picard as a hobby, stress relief and (as chhavi_ likes to joke) my other girlfriend, so yeah there’s that :P
iliekcomputers
Keep hanging around :)
samj1912
Yeah :D
Freso
samj1912: Thanks for the time with us so far. I hope you'll be around for a long time to come, in whatever capacity you're able to. :)
zas
thanks for all you did as contractor ! and i guess we'll meet more often now you're moving to Europe (not EU...)
iliekcomputers
Thanks samj1912 for being so awesome
ruaok
lol
iliekcomputers

bitmap
thanks for all your hard work, samj1912
samj1912
zas definitely ;)
chhavi_ feels so nostalgic about the time samj1912 told me about picard and these bunch of really nice guys he met online. Never could have guessed what we were getting into :)
MeB has given me the best of people I now call friends and helped me achieve phenomenal personal and professional growth.
ruaok
<3
samj1912
so thank you everyone! :D
yvanzo
Thank you samj1912!

Protab is now known as Rotab
samj1912
Special shoutout to Rob for bearing with me and keeping me glued to the community :D
ruaok
:)
samj1912
also, I guess he wants to say a few things?
ruaok
chhavi_ needs the shout out, really.
samj1912
ruaok: go
ruaok
yep.
thanks for ponging back to me...
samj1912
:P
ruaok
first, thanks samj1912 for what you've done. you're a force of nature to be reckoned with.
second, we're going to see you at the summit, no?
samj1912
\o/
chhavi_
:D
ruaok
third, we're all hoping that this isn't goodbye, but ciao for now.
samj1912
yup on both counts
samj1912 just hopes obtaining schengen visa in UK as a foreign national isnt a PITA
iliekcomputers
Ah, visas
ruaok
meaning that inside of all that "personal goals and professional growth" is more a backstory. I only have a fragment of what is going on, and I full see what samj1912 is doing. I'm doing my best to see if in a year or two we can circle back around.
for now, that's it.
that said...
we now have two openings on our team.
Leo_Verto[m]
Congratz, samj1912!
ruaok
if you know a samj1912 or iliekcomputers class hacker who needs work, please point them here.
zas
samj1912: i never dared to ask, but why 1912? ;à
ruaok
fin. zas!
samj1912
19 dec :P

well, apart walking under the Malta sun, just helped a bit on Picard release, and handled few emergencies, we had a server issue yesterday with burnside, cause undetermined (likely cpu crash)
fin. yvanzo ?
yvanzo
hi!
Not Last week, I worked on MusicBrainz server virtual machine mostly, and the usual spam stuff, PR reviews, bug triage, community support.
Not much to say, bitmap?
bitmap
hey
Freso
(People still up: Freso, reosarevok, iliekcomputers, rsh7, bukwurm, Leo_Verto, chhavi_, kartikeyaSh – anyone else, please let me know ASAP.)

hey bitmap :)
bitmap
I continuted working on converting the entity merge forms to React
developed a fix for MBS-9400 but might make some changes if we can limit some of the tags returned
tested and fixed some more bugs in the React i18n code I've been workin on on-and-off
ruaok
bitmap: what percentage of our site is on react vs tt? rough guess is fine.
bitmap
some pages are partially react and partially tt, but maybe 20%? also some big prs are still unmerged
ruaok
zas: any drop in CPU usage yet?
zas
since this process is incremental i'll have to look carefully, but nothing obvious
i guess the gain exists though, just hard to see in graphs over a long period with varying traffic
bitmap
also fixed some bugs in my sinuses so I'm not sick anymore. fin, Freso?

Dealt with some conflicts. One editor was very adamant that current MB practices were wrong and wanted to cast a vote of no confidence in these practices to the central committee, all the while refusing to move discussion to forums or similar venue. :sigh:
ruaok
got link?
no confidence in whom? Teresa May?
Freso
ruaok: Not in a person, in the guidelines/practices…
I'll dig up link in a moment.
