        This is still in progress and will included a bunch of tools to help with picard plugin development
      • Freso
        (My laptop just froze. Trying to unfreeze or reboot now. Sorry. 🙇)
      • CatQuest
        no prob freso
      • ruaok
        want me to lead for a bit?
      • samj1912: done?
      • samj1912
        Apart from that reviews.
      • Fin
      • zas
      • Freso
        I'm still here on the phone, and it shouldn't need much leading. But sure. :)
      • ruaok
        zas might be traveling. we'll give him a sec or two to respond.
      • Freso
        Oh.
      • I have review from dad in email.
      • CatQuest waves weakily
      • Zas
      • ruaok
        :)
      • lol.
      • bitmap: go
      • Freso
        ...
      • CatQuest
        wait your dad is on themeeting?
      • cool!
      • ruaok
        (we'll wait for the reviews by zas and Quesito when Freso's lappy get happy again)
      • bitmap
        I was fixing the broken replication packet at the beginning of last week
      • ruaok
        you've been doing heroics recently. much appreciated.
      • CatQuest
        !m bitmap
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, bitmap!
      • bitmap
        then I spent some more time debugging dbmirror (though I don't have any patch yet) and mostly doing code review and re-deploying test.mb for solr testing
      • also starting fixing some issues with the json dumps related to entities not being deleted properly, but nothing major
      • Freso back on laptop
      • CatQuest
        wb freso
      • ruaok hands the mic back
      • broccoli?
      • bitmap
        fin, reosarevok ?
      • ruaok
        bitmap: and the json dump incrementals are flowing now?
      • reosarevok
        Support, plus added a new relationship attribute for liner notes translation that was requested earlier today. I set up the NWR/CRI db but haven't had the time to play with it enough yet.
      • bitmap
        yep, haven't seen any issues there
      • ruaok
        \ø/
      • bitmap
        minor deletion issues are just with the full dumps
      • ruaok

      • Freso
        (Others up: Freso, zas-via-Freso, Gentlecat, ruaok, Quesito, psolanki, ListMyCDs, ferbncode, Leo_Verto[m], CatQuest; maybe up (please confirm): alastairp, Leftmost, LordSputnik; anyone else?)
      • reosarevok
        That's about it for me, other than a lot of editing.
      • CatQuest
        :D
      • reosarevok
        CatQuest?
      • CatQuest
        \o
      • took a wee break this week (tried too atleast, mb is too addictive! /:O)
      • tried to work as arbitrant to let nikki's scripts come into licence which we could use
      • this seems could not be done - the only answer for now is to have someone (preferably not even looked at nikki's code) rewrite them - I'll create some tickets that outlines what said scripts should *do* - and then let our very talented scriptwriters figure out best how to accomplish the needs, with their own code.
      • \o/ lækkert!
      • next is... freso?
      • Freso
        🙋
      • ruaok
        she is on her way now.
      • Freso
        I spent a lot of time on IRC and forums last week and also got around to making the April community recap blog post.
      • CatQuest
        yep, i now
      • !m Freso !
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, Freso !!
      • ruaok
        agreed. with HMA its been a rough week.
      • CatQuest
        as I've said beefore, it's kidna surreal
      • Freso
        I also did some catching up on the KEXP situation, worked with LordSputnik to get him access to the GCI 2016 files, added a Chinese translator to Transifex team (still need to finish that up, he wrote me again), reviewed and published CatQuest's 2nd INST update blog post, and finally rounded the week off with the HMA stuff.
      • arbenina_ has quit
      • Of other news, I went to the Floor Wars Spain battle event this Saturday, which was great fun.
      • First Floor Wars event I've been to outside DK. :)
      • I think that's fin for me.
      • zas!
      • ruaok
        not here.
      • Freso
        Says:
      • """
      • restored discourse after a failure, unblackisted few IPs, set up new servers yehudi & burnside, configured them to handle only ws traffic, as a result we are now handling all incoming requests, remaining 503s are due to IP/UA rate limit, discuss about the possibility to exchange some of our PX61 servers for those new AX50 servers, less expensive, less RAM, more CPU cores, as they are a better match for our needs. PRs review, new Picard project
      • picard-plugin-tools was set up. I also created few more grafana graphs, updated nagios & telegraf configuration.
      • """
      • ruaok
        ah. :)
      • Freso
        ruaok!
      • ruaok
        perfect, thanks.
      • to follow up on zas...
      • we were going to get two new servers of the usual type.
      • pingupingu joined the channel
      • usual type being 64GB and 4 core with hyoerthreading.
      • which are not a good match for us now -- we need more CPU, less ram.
      • hetzner has a new type based on AMD chips. €12 cheaper, 32GB ram, 6 cores + HT.
      • perfect!
      • Leo_Verto[m]
        sounds like Ryzen 5 1600
      • ruaok
        we're getting 20% - 25% more performance out of these machines.
      • CatQuest
        ..any snags?
      • ruaok
        yeah.
      • not really, no snags.
      • CatQuest
        :D
      • ruaok
        so, we are currently honoring 100% of all valid requests!
      • to the tune of 40M requests in a day.
      • CatQuest
        whoohoo!
      • ruaok
        !m zas
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, zas!
      • CatQuest
        !m dataservers
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, dataservers!
      • samj1912
        Wow
      • CatQuest
        and zas
      • ruaok
        so, this is a big deal, really.
      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Nice!
      • Freso
        :)
      • iliekcomputers
        \o/
      • ruaok
        we're going to let go of 4 of our existing servers and replace them with cheaper servers.
      • they are going to pay for themselves in 6 months I estimate.
      • iliekcomputers
        will the new servers have new names? :)
      • CatQuest
        noooo
      • Freso
        Nice.
      • CatQuest wants ot keep lemmy & queen :(
      • ruaok
        this feels really good. clear we have a lot of work to do to optimize things, but we're moving in the right direction.
      • CatQuest
        also bowie :S
      • ruaok
        both will be kept.
      • CatQuest
        sweet!
      • ruaok
        they are not for this purpose.
      • CatQuest has no complaints then :D
      • now for quesitos report: she was on vacation.
      • previously she was half working, half off. she still did some work wrangling some invoice matters.
      • but, for the first time in... ever... I'm looking at how much money is inbound and I'm really happy. we're in a good spot right now.
      • ruaok: next!
      • ok!
      • we did a deal recently that has some money earmarked for cool people in our life.
      • I think the metabrainz staff can expect a bonus next month.
      • but, I want to share some of the love with not only staff members.
      • not sure how to do this.
      • Freso
        (Others up: Gentlecat, psolanki, ListMyCDs, ferbncode, Leo_Verto[m]; maybe up (please confirm): alastairp, Leftmost, LordSputnik; anyone else?)
      • ruaok
        we handed out concert vouchers and I hope people have been using those.
      • what else can/should we do?
      • if you have any ideas, hit me up after the meeting.
      • LordSputnik
        ruaok: extra summit chocolate this year. Cause we never have enough ;)
      • ruaok
        I spent a bunch of time doing reviews for iliekcomputers and then deploying to beta.
      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Pycharm Pro licenses! :D
      • ruaok
        LordSputnik: we need to do better than that.
      • arthelon joined the channel
      • reosarevok
        ruaok: extra gelato then! ;P
      • CatQuest
        hmm....
      • ruaok
        that quickly uncovered more bugs, but iliekcomputers was on them and fixed them. I'm trying to do some reviews, but I keep getting distracted by amazing noms and stunning temples.
      • reosarevok: geez, not even you can handle this much gelato!
      • reosarevok
        Wanna test?
      • Freso is really impressed with our GSoC'ers this year :)
      • CatQuest kinda need an orcchart type prgram
      • ruaok
        reosarevok: you won't survive this. :)
      • CatQuest
        for instrument family sorting
      • ruaok
        then I ran off for a ride in a shiny new A350 that still had that "new airplane smell" and I'm now in Bangkok, not working all that much. :)
      • but maaan, the food. wow. yum.
      • CatQuest
        the bugs?
      • ruaok
        I think that is it for me. Gentlecat?
      • those were tasty too!
      • ruaok ate grasshoppers, silkworms and ant larvae
      • and frogs!
      • CatQuest
        orgchart not orcchart :D
      • Gentlecat
        I upgraded sentry, documented the process for the future
      • Freso
        yvanzo: How's your connection now?
      • Gentlecat
        will do the same for jenkins
      • yvanzo
        Freso: fine, ty
      • Gentlecat
        continued working on solr components and bringing them up to date with the schema change
