        Are most people gone because of New Years?
      • chirlu`
        Possibly.
      • chirlu` has been in 2016 for two hours already.
      • Leo_Verto
        :O
      • opatel99
        chirlu`: Do you see anything wrong with this https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/YSDcDc6v/
      • chirlu`
        Inline <script> tags aren’t very good for performance. :)
      • Also, since you said something about an infinite loop, you’d better be sure that /static/img/marker-icon.png actually exists and is loadable.
      • (And since you can’t be sure, you should remove the error handler when setting the fallback.)
      • stanislas too in 2016 for 2 hours :)
      • gcilou still has 5 hours till 2016 :)
      • opatel99
        chirlu`: That script works, but when I replace marker-icon.png with missing-art.svg, the request is made over and over again. All 200s.
      • chirlu`
        Does the browser support svg?
      • opatel99
        Yes
      • chirlu`
        That’s strange, but I’d still remove the error handler when it is first run.
      • Freso
        chirlu`: I'm 2 hours into 2016 too! 🙌
      • chirlu`
        Well, I’m 2.5 hours almost by now. ;-)
      • Freso
        (Very curious, considering that we're in the same timezone, but shh.)
      • opatel99
        Anyone free to review my mockup of the BookBrainz site?
      • Leo_Verto
        \o
      • opatel99
      • Leo_Verto
        Looks good but why do we need to redesign the BB front page again?
      • Is that a GCI task?
      • opatel99
        Yep. Also, I really think the hero background image shouldn't be dark
      • I'm a proponent of white design. The more white space, the more pure it looks.
      • zas
        Happy new year to *

      • bitmap
      • opatel99
        bitmap: Sorry. I thought I recollected something like that, so I checked the logs myself. Didn't mean to be repetitive.
      • bitmap
        heh, it's ok

      • when dev or someone technical about MB vm get a minute plz check http://forums.musicbrainz.org/viewtopic.php?pid... , need help with setup
      • mndhck is now known as YatharthROCK_
      • gcilou: "MacBooks are overpriced" ... I woulnd't say they're too overpriced, they beat a plastic laptop. They're also a true investment and hold a fair value for a couple years... versus a HP/dell etc drop in resale considerably
      • buy a used MBP (macbookpro) in good condition :)
      • YatharthROCK_
        Hello everyone! I've been travelling for the past few days and I'll be continuing to for a bit. I wanted to clarify some things brought up here in the meanwhile.
      • > I've abandoned my task then, because I had spent a lot of time, but opatel99 shouldn't abandon his.
      • stanlisas: I don't quite understand why having spent a lot of time would make you abandon your task instead of the opposite, but anyway I hadn't realized you had spent so much time on that task. I myself have had at least 10 entire days of effort in this contest wasted thanks to someone else's actions. I understand what it feels like. I apologize to you again about your having had to unclaim that task.
      • > That's true what opatel99 is saying. YathartRock was warned then.
      • stanlisas: I had worked for an unclaimed task; I agree with you here. Freso kindly explained how this situation wasn't desirable, I understood, and I said I would try to avoid it. I think it's not about being perfect but about understanding mistakes and moving on; you would agree with here, right?
      • With opatel99's claimed task, I abandoned PR #27's task because I knew I wouldn't, couldn't, finish it in time because of my travelling.
      • > Submitting a PR forces a user who claimed it to drop the task for an already completed solution.
      • opatel99: If one claimed a task and was unable to complete it, one should not apologize to the next person to claim the task. However, because of confusion in the situation here you had to unclaim the task as a consequence of actions of mine, so I apologize.
      • > and abandon the task. It seems like trouble I don't want to pursu
      • opatel99: I have apologized, but I would also request you to not cite “trouble” with me as a reasons for your decisions and actions but instead feel comfortable in contacting me, on #metabrainz or via a PM.
      • Regarding the confusion in the situation, I think I could have prevented much of it by making explicit in a note that I was in fact abandoning the task. I understand this, and I'll try to remember this for the future. I apologize to everyone about its consequences this time

      • chirlu`
        Happy 2016, everyone! :-)

      • reosarevok
        Yep! Hope that 502s are not that common later in the year :D
      • ruaok
        but they are now?
      • reosarevok
        I got a few
      • They seemed to go away now? Dunno :)
      • MCELLIGOTT ANDREAS GRAHAM 00122440913
      • So that middle name is in ISWCNet, which is where it came into MB
      • chirlu`
        And the middle name caused the 502s?
      • reosarevok
        No, their manager wrote to request we removed the "alleged" middle name "which didn't come from Wikipedia" (wtf)
      • reosarevok writes a polite "what about no" answer then
      • alastairp adds to wikipedia citing iswcnet as a source
      • :D
      • alastairp
        hmm. I used the city bike system here so little this year that it would have been cheaper for me to use public transport
      • Freso
        alastairp: 👍
