anyway i would Love such an idea

I'll do some research on existing query languages.

But yeah, LinkedB seems to have used SPARQL.

yvanzo: great idea!

naiveai: Would it work against a local database? Or how do you envision it working?

esp if the !query language" or whatever was documented "for dummies" like

so a dummie lie kme could learn it :D

Freso: It would require some messing around with musicbrainz-ngs to allow some broader expansions

I think it should work against both a local db and the real MusicBrainz server

or maybe a readonly slave if possible

?

naiveai: I think allowing raw queries against the live, public MB servers is a Bad Idea™, regardless of whether we use SPARQL, SQL, or some other QL.

Freso: which is why they won't be raw

yes

naiveai: a website might be more accessible than a cli, is there any reason you came up with the latter?

ah, local db is a good idea

Freso: well, I just like CLIs :D but you're right about the website

I miss the reports.mbsandbox.org "site". :/

naiveai: *Leo_Verto :)

we could make it a UI which would be easier to learn

naiveai: Sounds like you want to create something like LinkedBrainz... :)

ok, I think that's it. I was just looking for some validation on the idea, will research in depth and come back to it later/in a future meeting

I think improving UI is better

me too freso

Ashish: Improving UI won't allow more complex queries to be made.

LinkedBrainz but actually working :P

naiveai: Right on.

oh actually

Pretty short one again

naiveai: check summit 17 discussions, there were some ideas close by.

Just wanted to bring this to the attention of anyone who hasn't seen this

OTHER-321 is a a little vote plugin I'm working on currently

OTHER-321: Brainzbot Plugin for Counting Votes. https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/OTHER-321

I've got the basic functionality pretty much down right now

The current syntax has examples in this gist: https://gist.github.com/naiveaiguy/ce79a2e2eecc...

Freso, Leo_Verto, and CatQuest have already had some pretty extensive discussions on this matter

and I believe they mostly like the syntax?

either way I was looking for wider community input

I'd ask people to redirect input/feedback to the OTHER-321 ticket. :)

+1

Otherwise we can bikeshed here in the meeting for the next 20 hours. :)

oh yes, of course

sorry :P

then that's it

chhavi_ also had some good design feedback on that

No worries. Thanks for bringing it up. :)

Ashish: You sai "oh actually". Do you have more agenda items you'd like to discuss tonight?

If not, I'd like to conclude the meeting.

No practically I just thought of that if

Ashish: Not sure I understand you.

music brainz UI can be made similar to BookBrainz UI it would be better to understand thinks

I agree that complex entries wont be made

Ah, could be. I think that's part of a wider discussion though. Look at Design tickets on jira.

but yes

yeah, MusicBrainz is much older than the other projects, so it's looks are kind of dated

Definitely not something we can tackle at tonight's meeting. :)

So with that, thank you all for your time and thoughts!

naiveai: you forget that majority of users are older thoguh ;)

Have a good week!

</BANG>

yes fine

yay!

yea!

Good Bye

bye!

what was the thing about sigyn and oping before the meeting?

false positives?

CatQuest: If Sigyn is in here, I risk getting KILL or KLINED for mass-pinging people.

yeah.

aha

lol :P

oh no, waht is worse!

naiveai: I see you've claimed "Write a useful plugin for BrainzBot" so technically you have to either finish the voting plugin within two days or come up with a simpler one in that time :P

klined!

So I KICKed her prior to pinging people. I just invited her back, but it needs to wait for staff approval before she'll get back here.

I'm heading out now though, so hopefully she'll get here before any spammers. :)

yep, het it

get*

hmm is it possible to put yo uon a "ignore masspinging for mthis person" list?

Leo_Verto: I told him as much earlier. :)

CatQuest: Possibly. It's easier to just KICK and re-INVITE her though.

Not like she's needed much during the meeting with several channel ops hanging out.

that's true

if something happens ya'll be here right on it

*out

?

around?

aahh

jan 24 - deadline for choosing winners :D

jan 31 - winners announced

so much HYPE

:DDD

now don''t spoil any chances you have by nagging us sabout it :V /mock-stern

lol

Freso: do not choose naiveai. He's tryharding.

can we chose someone with 0 completed tasks as the winner? 🤔

Leo_Verto: it needs to be someone in the top 10 :P

reosarevok: hangouts

and winner(s) :P

haha definitely know what "tryharding" means amirite

>looks up tryharding on urbandictionary

>"Try hard is a word used to call people who are trying so hard to get as many girls as he can."

>wat

og urbandictionary

are mentors eligible to be GCI winners?

always about the sex

Leo_Verto: not you

Leo_Verto:

naiveai: :D that's new

but seriously I genuinely don't know what tryharding means :P

i thought it was like "trying too hard and that's uncool so hipsetrs basiclaly"

ah that makes sense

iliekcomputers: how was your bangkok trip

hmm going to indonesia to a indian is like norwegian going to spain for vacation, isn't it? :D

oh, the correct urbandictionary definition appears to be under "try-hard"

CatQuest: kind of, but without the Schengen

CatQuest: Bangkok is in thailand

samj1912: we spent a bunch of time in phuket, it was pretty great!

Definitely recommend phuket, Bangkok is your standard metropolitan city tbh

oh right of course it is.. sorry i am dumb and need to eat

i thought iliekcomputers said "indonesia"

so i gambled about names of cities.. and lost

!remember Leo_Verto=though naiveai built his json by hand

I will remember "Leo_Verto" for you naiveai.

uff da

it wasn't meant like that

I mean, I'd probably do something like that so :D

(build json by hand)

CatQuest: I know that, I'm referring to Leo_Verto, not reosarevok

yes so am I?

oh, ok I thought you misunderstood but it turns out I misunderstood your understanding, I thought you misunderstood but you understood

yo dawg

U N D E R S T O O D

still works

heeeyyy

I just met you, and this is crazy

but eat something maybe?

(I'm hungry)

that rhyming dough
