bitmap: I've canceled my previous PR and done the second one. It should be ok now.

(also as demonstrated by my not knowing what it meant) it's unclear" what we mean with it :)

just spelling it out like alastairp said is imho better.

clearer

CatQuest: yeah. I think there was a very specific meaning of "only text, no mbids" when we came up with it

but I agree that it can be understood in 2 ways, and we should just be clear about it

"barebones" perhaps?

"skeletal data"

well, we already have it in the name

messy?

messy. i like that :D

not to say all data in it is messy

but potentially some

yea

indeed

and then we can specify what we mean (misspellings, missing data, incorrectly cited, no mbids)

exactly

bitmap, reosarevok: I've canceled my previous PR and done the second one. It should be ok now.

stanislas: General hint, you can update a pull request on GitHub by pushing to its base branch. (Force-push, if you changed history.)

Freso, CatQuest, alastairp: I guess I'll be transforming this infographic to an essay on unclean/messy/'unworthy' data? Lol, I'll try to explain in minimal words

chirlu: Ok, I will next time. Thanks :)

chirlu: Have you seen my recent PR ?

Yes, I saw.

is it ok now ?

chirlu: ^

How about now: "MessyBrainz is a project to support 'messy' metadata (data without MusicBrainz IDs).  MessyBrainz is being used internally within AcousticBrainz and ListenBrainz.  MessyBrainz plans to open the mappings of the messy metadata to MusicBrainz IDs to the public."

Freso, alastairp ^

chirlu`: is it ok now ?

I'd say "open up" instead of "open". Or perhaps "release".

Looks otherwise ok to me. I'll leave it to alastairp to give the final word though. :)

Alright, I'll be off for the next several hours. Have fun without me. ;)

Sorry I keep asking about this, but it seems like no one knows the years that each of the MeB projects were released. Is that so>

*?

gcilou: You can try a whoIS request on the domains to see if that results in anything... Also, check the first commits for each github repo. That is, until someone that knows replies

ok..

I think I found them all.

No school today?

gcilou:

opatel99: homeschool! You?

Exam week. Finished in half the time

Do you homeschooled through a program like K12? Or just buy the materials yourself and test the course at the end of the year? gcilou

Has anyone else tried the rate-limiting fork of listenbrainz yet by chance? Encountered any issues with it failing to properly rate-limit?

opatel99: We pick the materials that we want to use and take all the tests and stuff and keep track of our resumes and grades and things. Some is online but mostly books

gcilou: Cool!

It's fun and flexible

I would imagine so. My brother did homeschooling for a bit

:)

if anyone wants to check out the infographic and make suggestions: https://storage.googleapis.com/codein-prod.apps...

nevermind that link wont work

That happened when I uploaded files too gcilou

well i can see the file from the task page, but i just can't copy it to a different site

gcilou, sorry I couldn't respond last night. We (me) are (is) experiencing technical difficulties.

stanislas: the new PR looks good to me - I'll let bitmap take a look too though :)

reosarevok: thanks

reosarevok: i am going to plan my time now, do you know how long could it take ?

Not really, but probably not a huge amount of time

I'd expect he'll be around in a few hours and it seems easy to review

reosarevok: ok, great

Mineo: pingity

CallerNo6: Can you test something in Picard for me? Pretty pretty please...

Or anyone ^

opatel99, what're you working on?

CallerNo6: Auto Cluster

I have it written. Just want to make sure it works for others

ah. I wouldn't be able to get to it for a while. I can help tonight if nobody else has. Sorry.

Thanks CallerNo6 .

opatel99: pong

Yay!

I guarantee you this works ^

I still get the same not-loaded metadata as in my previous screenshot :(

After changing the file to filenames?

Can I share my screen to you?

Mineo: ^

you mean a screenshot or some remote desktop thing?

i am confused as to what the "time available" field means on task in google code in

Remote Desktop

Time to complete the task I believe^

you can, but I'm not sure why :)

okay, so i'll have to do it in that time, once i claim it?

I totally believe you that the code is working, there are just some race conditions in there that lead to it not working correctly under all circumstances

mehtab, each task needs to be completed in 3 days (by default). More time can be added if a student needs it.

and if i don't finish it in that time, it will become available to others?

Mineo: I dont understand the circumstances that cause it to fail...

do you have some albums in the FLAC format?

it seems to happen more often with them

mehtab, if you are running out of time, Freso (or another mentor) will ask if you need more. If you say "yes", we'll extend the deadline. Or you can abandon the task and try something else at that point.

... we don't want you to fail, we want you to learn :-)

Mineo: I do not

mehtab: ... (and have fun. This is supposed to be fun).

i'll try to have fun once i get started

i am just trying to understand the process currently

i have one more question - how do i know if someone else is also working on the same task?

mehtab: you won't be able to select it in that case, if it's one where only one person can do it

I dunno if it notifies you when it's a multiple-instance task, but in any case nobody should be able to "steal" your task so to say

Mineo: Do you have chrome remote desktop?

I just want to reproduce it so I can fix it.

so, all the tasks that are currently 'claimable' are not currently being worked on?

Correct^

mehtab, that depends. some tasks have multiple "instances". that is, more than one person can be working on it.

like "Give a presentation to your class about MusicBrainz" ?

Exactly. Several students are working on that one.

I don't think I have chrome remote desktop, opatel99

Mineo: Could you send me FLAC files?

then will the best presentation be selected somehow?

and only that student will pass

mehtab: The task is to present it to the class. All students who complete the task get `credit`

mehtab, no. I hope that each presentation is good enough to be accepted :-)

ok. just like class assignments then :)

yes

except that your topic doesn't suck ;)

but don't quote us on that!

mehtab: there are a few cases where only one of the resulting works will be picked at the end (for example some design tasks) - but all students will get the task as accepted if they finish it, even if their design is not the chosen one in the end :)

so I'm attempting to build my own mirror from source - I've no familiarity with nodejs and running into error with gulp

i could do this one but i have my exams going on, so no classes to present to :/

spuniun: What project?

mehtab: the program lasts quite a bit, so maybe later you'll have that possibility? :)

musicbrainz

npm install -g musicbrainz

opatel99: if you download a few albums from http://ocremix.org/albums/ and loading them simultaneously, you might see the error

Run that in terminal with root(admin) privileges

oh, yeah, these kind of tasks will stay open till the end right?

spuniun, actually, don't run anything with root privileges unless you know what it does
