my brain isn't doing much better. :)

:)

how was the flight?

did your plan of email/coding work?

very nice actually.

no, never does.

Yes I looked at sold and it didn't seem to offer much control over efficient indexing, and then the most of it is a way of using lucene without having to understand it , but to have any control you need to start writing lucene coe anyway

I didn't sleep well the last two nights in london.

so I was a walking zombie on the way to LHR.

ah

hate that

sounds like me on monday

so I decided to get sleep on the flight.

very much so like you monday.

and then i was wide awake and happy./

then I got to customers.

cutoms

feh.

you'd think they have issues with my gig switch in my luggage.

no. they took issue with my pret sandwich.

took 5 minutes to scan my bags and confiscate my sandwich.

no word about the switch.

then I missed catching an earlier flight by FIVE minutes.

at that point I was pissed.

so i turned heelp, got on bart and went to the mission.

several beers and mission burrito later things were well.

then I passed out on the last flight. never even caught take-off. just the landing. WIN!

murdos: sweet :)

murdos: good.

I think that deal will happen.

the partnership between last and mb is going swimmingly atm.

I'm very happy about that.

ocharles: do you know stephan's email? first name at last.fm ?

stefans@ i would think

let me check

k

murdos: I agree, I can see why it scares people, but it's actually pretty sane

ruaok: yea, what I said above is right

ocharles: thanks.

also, you missed out on last.fm stickers, which I got today

I have some.

ah :)

i love the tag stickers

but stefan said they were old.

OH! I need more of those.

I liked indie ass on the loo door. :)

haha

you can make "uber hardcore canadian"

we have some of them

last.fm has fun loos anyway.

yes :)

and the sysadmin laid is fun too.

I walked in and saw the nagios screen.

RAID failure for 49 days?

that got a nice conversation about RAID cards started. :)

*lair

i was right about the half a terrabyte of ram btw

512gb :)

32 cups

cpus*

not sure if it's 32 cpus or cores, but it's stupid fast

damn.

wow.

man, what even supports that much RAM?

something *big*. :)

they also have more database servers running the musicbrainz database, than musicbrainz itself :P

(2)

LOL

:P

unless rika counts ;)

and given what happened yesterday, we need to deploy a hot spare soon.

(which it shouldn't, of course, I just had to make the joke :P)

ruaok, yes please

what happened yesterday?

Do we have rack space for it still?

ocharles, Totoro had to be restarted IIRC

poof

No apparent reason for the problems, unless djce discovered something

and it took 2 hours or so for us to get to that.

oh, is this why I got an email saying cron was terminated?

I need to double check to see that warp is on the acl for dwni

ocharles: yes.

not a good thing to find out when you arrive on the ground.

another good argument for having wifi in the sky

yea

we have space for 2 machines.

3

and we can probably pull stimpy and dexter and replace them with better machines.

we have a lot of work to do at DWNI.

but we have one 8-core 32gb box that can serve as a hot failover

our poor power bill. :(

it already went up by $75 deploying rika and lolo. :(

but stimpy and dexter have dual power supplies.

we may use less power by replacing them.

is ddex the stuff I saw?

nikki: no.

that was UMG proprietary.

that's $75/month, I assume?

ianmcorvidae: yes.

aw damn

at least our power bill doesn't track our bandwidth consumption.

nikki: the code or data?

(not that I have much money to give, but hey)

data

we dont have any data yet.

oh

awwwww

it kind of does track bandwidth... it only at a delay and indirectly

I need to follow up with EMI about data.

ruaok, never tell nikki and us "no data"!

Those two words together... they hurt! :p

us? meant me. It hurt so much, I'm delusional, apparently

I know you want data.

I'm working on it.

you've got a million releases in mb and you want MORE?

I spent a lot of energy last week getting data.

gotta give it some time.

such a picky community

Well, right now I'm feeding on the Estonian library system

ocharles: YES!

That has enough for a while

dataaaazzzz

lol

hey the music manager indie label data should be fun.

ocharles: did adrian sign off on the query?

ocharles, 1 million is half discogs!

That's not good enough :p

I saw you spent quite some time reviewing.

ruaok: he did, but... pm

k

andreypopp: hi!

too bad you're not coming to SF. :(

ruaok: hi! have no time to get a visa :-(

bummer. :(

andreypopp: do you guys have any DDEX parsing stuff yet?

ruaok: yeah, we have

cool.

ruaok: what's on your side about that?

well, we're interesting in working on that.

we're working on getting label data feeds now.

so, once we get them we need tools to parse them.

ruaok: that sounds cool

yeah. the labels have been receptive to giving us data.

which is really nice

well, I think we also can open source parser for ddex, but I need more time to get it in the corresponding state — world doesn't need another piece of crapy code

lol
