oh i see

yup i did

Ah, okay.

Alright, try to do `git checkout caa-79-api-redirect` now.

It should now check out the branch of that name from the github-freso remote, I think.

okay

Try to do `git push --set-upstream origin caa-79-api-redirect` now.

okay but what did it just do?

:)

It's a bit of a convoluted command that did a lot of things at the same time.

`git push` moves code from your local clone into a remote repository.

`--set-upstream origin` changed the remote the current branch "tracks" (ie., the remote branch that your local branch compares itself against).

"caa-79-api-redirect" is the branch we're talking about, both local and remote.

whats the difference between local and remote?

ariessa: Local is what you're working on right now, remote is what you're syncing against.

okay understood

:)

So what we did was we created a remote branch on origin called "caa-79-api-redirect" and told your local branch "caa-79-api-redirect" to sync against that. We did this at the same time as uploading the code in the local "caa-79-api-redirect" to the remote "caa-79-api-redirect". You should be able to see this branch and my commit on your GitHub now.

(If you don't fully understand what just happened right now, that's fine. Like I said, it is a bit convoluted. :))

okay good to know

Alright. So now you have the exact code that is mentioned in https://github.com/metabrainz/coverart_redirect... - so now you need to go over bitmap (mwiencek on GitHub)'s comments and implement those comments in the code.

ariessa: I'm going to take a shower and get breakfast, but I'll be available in a bit again if Python and/or Git is giving you the blues. :)

okay thanks

ruaok: cpu load is much lower on dora/roobarb

that's a good thing

Very lovely, yes.

indexer is building recording indexes atm

it is 2.5x faster than cartman for that

All promising!

i'll work on having stats in graphana for both indexer and search servers apps. Btw do tomcat/jetty have in-app status (like nginx status) ?

not sure

musicbrainz/picard#1241 (master - b1ca693 : Wieland Hoffmann): The build passed.

Change view : https://github.com/musicbrainz/picard/compare/0...

Build details : https://travis-ci.org/musicbrainz/picard/builds...

hello is anyone online?

no. :)

spideyonthego: if you have a question, just go ahead and ask it.

okay

hahaha

im trying to get CB running on my computer

so i followed the instructions and installed vagrant

but when i type in "vagrant up" in the cmd, it starts downloading a huge file

is this normal?

yes.

it is literally going to install a new version of linux into a virtual machine. cool, eh?

Freso: so i should implement the code into ariessa/coverart_redirect under request.py file right?

so im literally going to have a system running inside my system?

thats pretty cool

yep.

and is there no other way i can try out my new code

on someone else's system which already can run CB ?

spideyonthego: not really. this is the best way to do it. but, once it is setup it will be useful for all your work.

ariessa: Yes.

okay. thanks :)

okay so i implemented the comment in the code

Alright. Then `git add --all` (this adds all changes from your working directory to the "staging area") and then `git commit -v`. Some editor will now pop up to let you enter a commit message.

wow. our staff is now 7 people. Only two full timers, but still. 7!

a veritable corporate juggernaut

ruaok: :)

Did they return the contract already?

contract is signed.

So you can do the grand reveal now?

draft blog post waiting her review.

if you have a sec, feel free to review.

will you finally tell us who it is? :)

I'll give it a look. :)

Gentlecat: you don't know her.

cmon Freso, hurry up

:)

But she rides her bike a lot. :)

good 🚴

she may leave us all in the dust.

esp me. :)

Haha. LinkedIn profile link. How biz-like. :p

I felt that was appropriate, since none of you know her.

ruaok: climbing 1km per week is part of the contract, right?

Gentlecat: ^^

LinkedIn is never appropriate :P

👍

Gentlecat: if that is the case, then I'd have to fire myself.

then again, I'm close for this month.

maybe I should've linked her strava account instead. :)

lol

"First, it acknowledges that we have grown enough to warrant such a position and second that it will hopefully improve […]" - this feels a bit clumsy, the "second that it will" part. But I can't quite put a finger on it.

Freso: i run 'git commit -v' and it says, On branch caa-79-api-redirect Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/caa-79-api-redirect'. nothing to commit, working directory clean

Huh. My CommMan position haven't been added to LinkedIn… I guess that's how often I use it.

ariessa: Did you add the files?

yeah, linked in is a write only medium for me

Using the `git add` command?

yes

yes

Freso: strike the second "that"

snappy search servers! \ø/

ruaok: Sounds much better. :)

ariessa: Alright. Can you pastebin the output of `git log`?

ok, added some final touches.

Oh. I got lost in LinkedIn.

I'm going to combine all the lists to only be one list...

Freso: http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-8482 as beginner-level GCi – suitable or too easy?

https://pastee.org/try3y makes my eyes bleed ;_;

ah, I see.

that is what I get pasting from gdocs.

let christina review it, so don't post it yet, Freso

Sure.

Rest of the content looks fine, so I'm just gonna clean up the HTML. :p

thanks.

Freso: https://ptpb.pw/hm42

Should I still send my overdue invoice to rob@mb?

Freso: While you are at it, the search server blog post has some empty paragraphs at the end …

chirlu`: :p ❤️

ruaok: do we need to update https://metabrainz.org/about?

in what respect?

we need to add details for our entire team to the site.

including job descriptions and other shizzle like that.

if Carol will be replaced by someone

ah, that hasn't happened yet.

just a reminder :)

right

Rassami and I have started the replacement search.

Oh, ruaok: "setting up a new headquarters" → "new headquarters" or "a new headquarter"? I'm leaning towards the former, but it definitely shouldn't be both ;)

and details too, we've been panning to do that for a long time, I guess

Freso: singular, please.

Gentlecat: yes, a lot of things have been pushed off for hiring a sysadmin and a biz dev manager.

like the 2014 annual report. :(

so, first things in 2016 will be to get that 2015 report done and to spent time on the meb site to flesh it out with much more info.

ruaok: I also did "research and suggestions related to law and policy issues related to" -> "research and suggestions on law and policy issues related to", to avoid doing "related to" twice in the same sentence.

k

we may need to backport that to the job description later, but nothing to worry about now, Freso

oohh, index rotation coming.

exciting. :)

ruaok: Well, the job description doesn't need to flow as nicely as a blog post. Theoretically, only two people ever need to read that, while the blog post will be read by (hopefully) many people.

Freso: I want to post job descriptions on the site next year.
