        reosarevok: I just cant seem to get st peters up there
      • is it because of the comma?
      • reosarevok
        I dunno
      • samj1912
        doesnt seem like it
      • wtf
      • what results was I being shown then O.o
      • ah, I am searching for london church
      • sign
      • *sigh
      • well anyway
      • is that betteR?
      • reosarevok
        " Can't connect to solr.service.consul:18983 Name or service not known at /home/musicbrainz/carton-local/lib/perl5/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 46." not really better :D
      • samj1912
        I restarted it :P
      • try again
      • Leo_Verto
        Huh, what's up with the changed by "Anonymous" in this ticket's activity? https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/SPAM-1
      • BrainzBot
        SPAM-1: Design SpamBrainz logo
      • reosarevok
        Still getting the same
      • samj1912
        yeah, I was just fixing some other things I had broken
      • reosarevok
        Leo_Verto: probably someone clicked the wrong thing, then tried to improve it
      • samj1912
        anyway, is the current one fine?
      • reosarevok
        Oh, that's what you meant
      • Leo_Verto
        reosarevok: but why "Anonymous"? Deleted user?
      • reosarevok
        Well, it seems a bit better - and I generally do find places I search for fine, so that's probably OK to follow
      • Leo_Verto: maybe at that time anonymous could do that, or maybe a deleted user. Not sure
      • samj1912
        reosarevok: you might wanna try a couple more searches, this is way different than our current search so I dont want it to perform worse :P
      • Leo_Verto
        samj1912: I assume you're going to make a "this is broken with the new search and I want it fixed" thread for our users to come up with wonderful edge cases? :P
      • samj1912
      • which is better?
      • Leo_Verto: I guess so
      • I will do it when we make the beta announcement
      • or the alpha one
      • idk :P
      • ruaok: zas what is our game plan with solr currently?
      • Leo_Verto
        what kind of place "A church in North London"?
      • reosarevok
        I like indexed more
      • Leo_Verto: probably that's all the info they had
      • Leo_Verto
        ah, yeah, when discogs is your only source https://www.discogs.com/de/Electric-Litany-How-...
      • samj1912
        reosarevok: hmm
      • let me try again then
      • Leo_Verto
        and the next sentence is "Recorded without the use of computers." as if that's something to be proud of
      • reosarevok
        Leo_Verto: well that's literally what's printed :D
      • What can they do
      • Leo_Verto
        searching for a just a city name in old/newsearch is interesting
      • oddly enough oldsearch seems mostly popularity-based
      • or at least, what I'd expect knowing the city
      • and in newsearch some hotel is the fifth result
      • ruaok
        samj1912: game plan is to make a game plan. :-)
      • Leo_Verto
        venues seem to massively drop in favour of studios
      • ruaok
        I know zas has loads of open questions that you two might be able to answer together faster.
      • Leo_Verto
        which I guess kinda makes sense considering we don't have a whole lot of events in MB yet vs a ton of releases recorded at studios
      • reosarevok
        A lot of classical releases are recorded at venues too, but
      • madmouse_ joined the channel
      • ruaok
        But, get solr cloud deployed and then do a deployment to beta and ask for a last round of comments... That is the rough game plan...
      • Leo_Verto
        well, the Laeiszhalle, which used to be the concert house in Hamburg until a year ago dropped quite heavily in newsearch
      • madmouse_ has quit
      • then again, it doesn't contain hamburg in the name
      • reosarevok
        I'm off for a concert now, should finish at meeting time but I might be a little late

      • samj1912
        Mineo: ping
      • ah nvm
      • found the answer in solr docs :P
      • zas
        samj1912: the plan is simple, move stuff to solr cloud, and test/tune/test/tune/fix/test/tune until we are ready for production.
      • but in the immediate future, i'd like you set up solr stuff on solr cloud vms so we can validate it works, and see what needs to be improved, i did a very raw and unsafe install, and i guess there are a lot of things to do before we can even go in beta
      • samj1912
        cool
      • zas
        we need to have an idea of the overall performance we can achieve with this setup, so once we are able to actually search on solr cloud, i'd like to measure performance under (simulated) load, and compare it to current search servers.
      • Leo_Verto
        ugh, why did we never come up with a nice solution to integrating lobes other than just dropping the relevant files in?
      • ruaok is suffering from Sunday evening travel congestion delays
      • oh hey, bookbrainz has a decent solution, https://github.com/bookbrainz/bookbrainz-site/b... :D
      • ruaok
        I'll follow along, but will have spotty connection/attention for the first half of the meeting. I'll check in when I have a better connection.
      • Freso
        chhavi_: Would it be terrible if your topic doesn't make it until next week?
      • ruaok
        Freso: the gendered speech one can wait too. We have a lot of other things for the meeting.
      • drsaunder joined the channel
      • Freso
        ruaok: Yeah, that's what I was seeing, thus checking to see what can potentially be postponed. :) I'll push genders to the end.
      • chhavi_
        Freso: nopes, not at all :)

      • Hello people!
      • CatQuest
        hi Freso !
      • Leo__Verto
        \o
      • Freso
        And welcome to the almost-21st Monday meeting of the year.
      • People up today: Freso, reosarevok, bitmap, zas, ruaok, yvanzo, samj1912, iliekcomputers, rsh7, bukwurm, Leo_Verto, chhavi_, kartikeyaSh_ircc, CatQuest - anyone else, please let me know explicitly ASAP. (Ping: LordSputnik, Leftmost, alastairp, ferbncode)
      • iliekcomputers: Go!
      • iliekcomputers says:
      • """
      • Did a bunch of work on GDPR things, user account deletion and notices. Also, did a lot of code review for kartikeya and rashi, their brainzutils PRs are looking pretty good. I'll probably merge and release a new version tomorrow if they're okay.
      • Other than that, gonna be busy with irl stuff for the last week of May mostly, lots of people going away (and I'm in desperate need for a vacation after this semester)
      • """
      • samj1912: Go!
      • samj1912
        hello o/
      • Did a lot of solr stuff this week
      • I basically tried fixing our search and relevance results
      • and they got as fixed as they could get
      • CatQuest
        \o/
      • samj1912
        reosarevok: and Leo_Verto and CatQuest helped me a lot with that :D
      • you can test it out here -https://test.musicbrainz.org/
      • CatQuest
        :DDD
      • drsaunder
        freso: here
      • samj1912
        just keep the advanced mode on, since only that has the appropriate boosts
      • apart from that fixed a few other sir bugs
      • chhavi_: go
      • chhavi_
        Hello :) Worked on summit artwork with invat (yeah, I know it's too early, but was excited to get started). A bit on setting up the design system, not as much as I would have liked though. Looking forward to catch up this week.
      • This one was a rough one (got sick and family mishaps).
      • Fin!
      • CatQuest
        aaww
      • chhavi_
        ruaok: go :)
      • Freso
        I think maybe ruaok is on a spotty connection right now.
      • Let's let CatQuest go first and ruaok can go when he's on a stable connection.
      • CatQuest
        :o
      • ruaok
        Pass, plz
      • CatQuest
        alright
      • As expected, I didn't get much done this week, however it was mostly due to a sudden elevation of temperature!
      • To our esteemed indian colleagues it is probably not much, but if you consider that a mere month-and-a-half ago there was snow on the ground with minus 5˚, a plus 28˚ is indeed a lot! (in july one would be more used to something like this temperature :​​D)
      • However, I *​did​* mange to do some fixing of gong and gongs (merge the latter into the former)
      • Edited a few releases, added a ticket for suggestion of a new report: MBS-9712
      • BrainzBot
        MBS-9712: Report: Instrument credit mishmatches https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9712
      • CatQuest
        Considering splitting up our "mbira" instrument which makes sense since we differentiate between very similar other instruments, but this will be an undertaking, as it will require reorganising a lot of different wikidata pages as well, anyone who knows anything about all lamellophones like mbiras, likembes, kalimbas, sansas and the ilk are welcome to talk about this! Please make some INST tickets with different "thumb piano" instruments
      • that are your pet thing. (yes, people reading the community "Notes from" posts, this means you!)
      • see INST-647 for the accompanying ticket!
      • BrainzBot
      • CatQuest
        Finn!
      • letsee freso next?
      • Freso
        🙋
      • chhavi_
        Lol, baked indian colleagues more like it. :)
      • samj1912
        it hit 45C here last week :P
      • CatQuest
        ye that sounds like steaming :DDD
      • Leo__Verto
        I wouldn't survive that
      • Freso
        This last week I did some board related stuff, including attending this quarter's quarterly board meeting.
      • CatQuest
        !m Freso
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, Freso!
      • Freso
        I dealt with some reported editors and some flagged forum content/users.
      • And generally was around and about on IRC and forums.
      • fin, yvanzo: Go!
      • yvanzo
        hi all!
      • Freso
        (People still up: reosarevok, bitmap, zas, ruaok, rsh7, bukwurm, Leo_Verto, kartikeyaSh_ircc, drsaunder - anyone else, please let me know explicitly ASAP.)
      • yvanzo
        Last week, I reviewed more PRs, reworked my code for reporting spam, updated URL handlers, helped a tiny bit with SOLR.
      • No release today, but a beta release soon.
      • fin, reosarevok?
      • Freso
        I'm not sure reosarevok is fully home from concert…
      • bitmap? :)
      • yvanzo
        bitmap next.
