ruaok_: :)

the thing that was a massive game changer re BigQuery was that public data sets are hosted FOR FREE

querying the data costs, but everyone gets 5TB/month free.

for size of our "small potatoes" data, that could be a decent amount

but the best part of that we dont have to setep our own hadoop cluster.

and with maybe 20 lines of python we can stream LB data straight to bigquery.

and then everyone and anyone can start writing queries and use google scale stuff.

this is super exciting, really.

because it allows us to grow out "small potatoes big data" projects faster than having to install our own stuff.

*our

so, super excited.

also way over socialized and I have nothing but socializing to do for the next 3 days.

what could go wrong. :)

fin!

Neat.

Leftmost, go.

I've been working on sorting out the edit search speed stuff and doing due diligence on partitioning.

(bitmap didn't clock in yet, right?)

Sadly, it looks like partitioning won't get us much benefit, as we can't guarantee that any given query will only be looking at some subset of partitions, which is where the biggest performance benefits come in.

There's something small to be gained in terms of physical proximity, but that doesn't seem to be applicable, since everything is stored in roughly the same order it's created.

From talking to #postgresql, though, physical proximity is our issue, just not one I have an immediate solution for.

And neither do they?

No, but I'm keeping an ongoing dialogue with them to try to get it worked out.

Cool.

I've been able to get some improvement in query speed for collection edits, but it's going to be a process.

That's it for me.

alastairp? bitmap? LordSputnik? Anyone else?

Guess not then.

Onwards!

reosarevok!

Enough with the house cleaning, you're in a meeting.

:p

The mess will still be there afterwards.

(they're showing the house tomorrow morning hence making sure it's showable! :p)

So

drsaunde was asking about http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/CAA-84

And I was like "huh yeah I should find out if we can work on that or not"

(that is, whether we need IA time or just MB time)

ruaok_ mentioned earlier that it could just be MB time, depending on how we want to do it

So we should think about what we want from this

"<ruaok> If we make it another type in case, then cake."

Can it fit inside CAA or does it need to be a different project?

Leftmost: 64MB

Thanks.

CallerNo6 mentioned that posters and the like are more likely to be something designers complain about than cover art, since they are sold separately sometimes

So we should make sure with the IA they're also fine with us throwing that at them

But apart from that, does "add event to the CAA" seem reasonable as a way to do this?

I feel like they should be their own project. Maybe ping the IA and hear how long a wait that would likely entail?

Or do people think we need to do something fancier?

I don't know.

Ok, so get in touch with the IA and check on the idea first. Seems reasonable

!next?

Since I kinda have the contacts (even though I haven't talked to anyone there in a year or so, hope they're still on that skype chat...) I guess I can add that to my list of tasks

I guess next!

!next

reosarevok!

Enough with the house cleaning, you're in a meeting.

:U

:D

Anyway

I was thinking I really want a way to see what I have properly cleaned up and what I still need to fix when looking at a composer

That takes me back to data quality (which, I know, nobody is using right now)

I was thinking: if I could look at a release list and see a small happy face (or something) by the ones that have been fixed properly, and maybe a sad face (or something else) by the ones which we know suck ass, that'd make it easier

(and data quality actually showing somewhere useful might even make other people use it)

Then I heard that someone wanted things teenagers could do

So I thought maybe teenagers could design us some icons and then we could show them like that :p

Does that sound like annoying clutter to others?

GCI task?

Or like something that might make sense?

Yes I didn't mean just random teenagers off the street, Freso :p

Sorry, I'll be more obvious next time :p

That'd've been fun though.

Twitch Designs MusicBrainz Logos

(no)

Anyway. Basically my main question is "will anyone shout if we show more icons?"

(I guess "if yes, can we make it a preference and still add icons?" :p

)

When checking if there was a ticket for this I found several other icon-related tickets that might fit GCI, btw

you can always turn them off in css, can't you?

We can take a quick look after the meeting

CallerNo6: probably but I'd rather have a real option if more than one or two people hate them :)

sure. so maybe something like an MBUI userscript?

You mean to show them or to not show them?

Ok. I'll add a ticket for it, but you can comment on it and be like NOPE. if you hate it :p

oh, quick OT: The birth certificate I requested for Taio Cruz was not found. which suggests that the birth certificate sent to us was a fake.

:D

Really?

lol

I provided the details as given on the birth cert to her majesty's gubmint and asked for a copy.

404

so, *something* is wrong with that.

So next step?

Sending it to the popo?

blog post. comment on wikipedia talk page.

send to met police.

Nice.

haha. don't mess with archivists.

(Better the met police than the meth police, I guess.)

lol to both. :)

;)

CallerNo6: seriously, this pisses me off.

ok, time to run.

will still be available on mobile

Adeus!

Also, I think that about wraps up the meeting.

Thanks for not throwing too many carrots around!

</BANG>

💥

oh, so reosarevok: I'm going to make a ticket about "user edited" cover art. file it under style or caa?

New types? Style

I'm with chirlu`. What's this whole Taio Cruz thingymajig?

Someone who writes like a fancypants lawyer wrote to us

Saying "we have the wrong legal name for Taio Cruz and it's actually this"

http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-8625 is the ticket for data quality icons BTW - happy to get comments for/against/about it

Leftmost: http://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/musicb...

Oy.

ruaok: You really should just go and request getting your WP username changed to RobKaye, ruaok, Mayhem(BCN), or whatever...

Yeah, will do before following up.

Will also talk to wm people about this taio biz.

Freso: I'm adding some icon-related MBS tickets to your page

Please take a look afterwards and see if you agree they could fit

People get into arguments over the weirdest things.

Oh! I forgot.

We can skip using layer.

Xmpp will do all we need. Fully open source.

And arc Riley, and xmpp fan is helping us.

*an

Ooh, XMPP.

Gentlecat: so, we need to review the tickets related to mbs-1801

Leftmost: I don’t think the edit search performance issue in the general case can be solved as long as the planner does dumb things, such as assign a selectivity of 0.5 to IN clauses, and won’t take hints.

ruaok: ok

(Hints to override the default selectivity.)

how is this going to work?

XMPP = <3
