what wil default order be?

bitmap: is the overview tab not having issues with RG sort then?

alphanumeric?

CatQuest: ID, probably, so when they got added

(since I guess the issue is *any* sort is super slow because there's so many of them)

reosarevok: yes, that's pretty darn slow too in that it frequently spams the PG logs, but not slow enough that it causes load spikes like the VA case

Is the issue specifically with date/country or any sort?

Oh, I see you suggested sorting by name

We could even special case the VA page to browse by first letter (like our old browse page) then paginate

If it's too slow

ooh i like that idea actually

i like it a lot

Although that should still allow filtering by type and whatnot

bring bakc "browse" !

yep

but I was wondering, could we group by "type" first also?

So click "Album" and then find by first letter?

incase wanted to go thought again things liek singles and ep's and what not wich might shoudl be moved

also "remix" wich very well may have the artist changed too

I mean, if we made such a change, that step wouldn't be too hard

yea

or revers. first a letter thne group per type

For now that still loads though so that'd be more of a longer-term issue, but I think special-casing VA more makes sense

whatever people like

any ORDER BY that isn't backed by an index is going to be pretty slow but depends on the query/size of the table

anything thna by id imho

bitmap: can't we index the date?

+1

(and skip the country order)

a nother idea for browsing is to have "by date" (you cna chose a year or yea range" and it only shows thos) but letter liek old browse, or by country, and it only show that country. etc

it wouldn't help in this case since it's filtering by artist

but an index on the date might help for the filtering

(filtering by date I mean)

just not for improving the sort performance

I see

lol look at this weird release i found on amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DHQ51Z8

Any ideas on what might improve the sort performance at all longer term?

CatQuest: 🙄

Seems legit

ikr?

probably caching the page offsets somewhere

But wouldn't that need to be redone every time someone added a new VA release anyway?

Invalidating the old cache I mean

yup

https://www.depesz.com/2011/05/20/pagination-wi... is one article on that subject

🤔 the edits I want to do is going to move releases *away* from VA though...

so that will reduce

haha

Sadly, I suspect more VA releases get added than moved away even with help

but having a sort of "by letter" browse on VA doesnt bother me at all. it seems lie ka really good idea

yea I guess :(

Although I should check VA at some point for stuff that should be classical-styled

+100

Maybe there's a ton

i bet there is

Not that I need *more* crap to fix

But eh

oh no.

I mean i cna help?

It’s International Kissing Monday!

I have received one mailed in review, so: ishaanshah, go!

ishaanshah says…

"""

Last week I worked on completion of Listening Activity frontend and writing tests for it. Other than that worked on the issue of request consumer dropping some messages. Completed my first evaluation. I had lots of fun the last 2 months, have learnt a lot. I would like to thank iliekcomputers and the whole MeB community for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. Thats all for me. Fin!

Other people up for reviews today: zas, yvanzo, Mr_Monkey, Freso, alastairp, reosarevok, ruaok, pristine__, bitmap, diru1100, jmp_music, prabal, Cyna[m], _lucifer, CatQuest, shivam-kapila – anyone else who wants to give review, let me know ASAP!

zas: Go!

Ping zas?

:(

yvanzo: Go!

Hi!

hey

on no.

Last week, I released a new version of MusicBrainz Server.

I fixed small issues and worked on unlisting unrelated edits.

sorry, late by one minute ;), I'll go after yvanzo

!m yvanzo

You're doing good work, yvanzo!

Not much to report actually, so it's your turn zas!

Among news, we released Picard 2.4.0beta1 and beta2

Thanks for fixing my mess, yvanzo! :)

only few bugs reported, it seems pretty good, we expect to release final by the end of this month

apart that, upgraded grafana to latest version

also fixed community.metabrainz.org

plus usual maintenance, upgrades, service restarts, and yes fixed discourse ;)

\o/

fin. Mr_Monkey?

Hi !

hi!

Last week worked on PR reviews and GSoC evaluation

Also continued work with shivam-kapila on LB's design. Looking nice and clean!

I also started work on reworking pagination in LB's listens page (currently clicking next loads a new page instead of having in-page pagination). Still have one more improvement I want to add before the PR is ready

That's it for me ! Freso go !

o/

My keyboard is being wonky under Firefox lately. :|

Anyway.

Really not much of anything to report, skulking about mostly and doing summer stuff and studying Python comp sci.

alastairp: Go!

good evening

last week I spent a day at the metabrainz office, it was great to get out of the house and see Mr_Monkey and ruaok in person

I had a good discussion with ruaok about his recommendation systems pipeline. I also continued some work with the model training submission interface in AB

I also had an interesting discussion with an ex-workmate who is currently working on a metadata matching project, much like what ruaok has been doing. He is going to use the messybrainz data to evaluate his machine-learning-based method and see if we can improve the matching percentage. I spent a bit of time over the last few days talking to him about the messybrainz server and process

hopefully some results in the next few weeks

also spent some time with jmp_music.

that's me, reosarevok next

Hi!

I did some code review, and was otherwise busy with home (hopefully-)improvement and a small, 500-people-max festival on the weekend

It feels weird to have live music even if it's limited to 500 people

reosarevok: be careful!

Today I've been trying to look into some more bugs caused by converting TT code (which just laughs if something is missing from the data and prints everything else anyway) to React (which screams at you because the data isn't there)

Every day I'm reminded of how shit our historic edit data is, oh well

I'll try to keep up with my programming in between the home stuff

fin. CatQuest?

Meow! `😺`

Been working on BB-514, including adding blurbs to every relationship also to explain what it does - that'll go into documentation

BB-514: Add missing, and improve current relationships https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/BB-514

(People still up: ruaok, pristine__, bitmap, diru1100, jmp_music, prabal, Cyna[m], _lucifer, shivam-kapila – anyone else who wants to give review, let me know ASAP!)

Finished work-work (almost) now working on author-work, which is also coming along nicely, next will be author-edition!

Also finally got access to community.meb again! all hail zas!

So I've replied to some posts there

♊

fin, go prabal

Hi

Or maybe... go, ruaok!

Oh, nvm.

freso jump the gun

XD

CatQuest: I've said before that I'd wait 40 seconds before calling a new one out, I gave 50 seconds here.

Delete collections and Add Entity To Collection PR got merged last week

relax freso it wasn't meant as an attac k :P

The project is going nicely

prabal: looking forward to testing it!

Also passed gsoc first evaluation :P

stupid fail all button.

Haahaa :p

I'll add that the project is really moving along and there is now a working full workflow of creating/adding & removing/editing/viewing/deleting collections !

👏 Mr_Monkey and prabal working hard!

Also worked of collection view payees last week

This week will be about writing tests and documentation

Pages*

That's it for me

ruaok: go

ok

last week was busy!
