#musicbrainz-devel

weeksio_: have you seen http://music-encoding.org/?

interesting...nope, I hadn't

there’s lots of this stuff going on in the background

the best bet is to get all of these other databases speaking musicbrainz ids

http://duchemin-dev.haverford.edu/piece/DC0101/, etc

yep...MEI seems pretty ambitious...I was just thinking themes (4 or 8 bars...melody only)

Gotta start preachin' the gospel of the MBID

oh well...just some thoughts

hm, these stats don't look right http://acousticbrainz.org/

yay!

maybe I should try your patches before OKing them

we've scanned more music than exists. go us!

ruaok: damn duplicates

that site looks gorgeous. :)

sans the overflow. :)

oh, I see

alastairp: https://github.com/metabrainz/acousticbrainz-se...

ah, right

lol

go for it

ok, a bit better now http://acousticbrainz.org/ :P

alastairp: want to talk about http://chatlogs.musicbrainz.org/musicbrainz-dev...

maybe

I’m heading out for a party soon

"party"

I think it is safe to say that we currently live in a party.

parties are nice

would be great if you could dump some more info into that wiki page

I'll work on something else for now

huh. samba band in our hood.

drowing out the fireworks.

+n

I’m not sure what to put there

perhaps the best way would be for you to make a fake dataset

and try and run the code that’s there

so that you get an idea about what runs and what’s involved

after that we can talk about what data of the run we need to store

yeah

is that an OK idea or do you want more guidance?

I guess I could just start building stuff around this https://github.com/MTG/essentia/blob/master/FAQ...

(it wouldn’t be until thursday when I get a chance to run it again myself to remind me)

right, exactly

hopefully I'll be able to figure out how to run this thing

I finally updated the code so that it works as functions :)

not crazy sys.argv hacking

the only thing is it stores a bunch of intermediate work as files on disk

(there’s the idea of a ‘project directory’)

I don’t know if we want to consider running on other machine clusters - aws/google compute cloud? ruaok ?

I think we should start simple

I think we should think about allowing multiple systems, but not put energy towards each one yet.

so try to keep it separate from the rest of server?

if this takes off and we ask for resources, they might come from many different corners of the net

if that isn't a lot of effort, that sounds good to me

hmm, that’s a good idea

one thing we’ll have to address early on is how to pass data to it

so, there’s this thing

gaia (the tool we use) only reads yaml

there’s an open ticket to add json support

so currently the tool takes json file, converts to yaml file, runs the eval

how hard is it?

this means that to get the original json files we need to dump from the db to disk

to add support? moderately difficult

to keep with the status quo and use the intermediate converter? no effort

Gentlecat: so, after I install vagrant how do I run it?

vagrant ssh, cd, runserver?

yes, looks right

that’s annoying

(I’d like a single command that I can run from my host)

I’ll look into it

do you run as vagrant or as root?

I run everything as root

*twitch*

you want it to run and reload the app automatically after boot?

I thought about it, but that’s not a good idea for development

e.g. if the autoloader falls over

or you want to catch debugging

right

hmm, so you can do ‘vagrant ssh -c <some command>’, and when that command stops you’ll be logged out again

the problem is that ssh takes a bit of time to start up, which makes it not nice

whoever it was that pinged me about the VM... I'm having a play now

it feels like Freso would have made such a ping :P

I think it was. :p

ruaok | fun stuff, but music hack days are fundamentally changing. not sure how to feel about that. — changing how?

Sweet, got at least a responsive HTTP server on port 5000

:)

But now... more Splatoon

Is everyone playing that game but me? :(

Kind of amazing that this gets you a VM, open on port 5000, serving musicbrainz (and of course crashing to connect to the DB) https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/W9ldUP8s/

reosarevok: it's the cheapest console!

And a super super fun game

I have thrown the game pad on the floor a few times tonight though...

Well, I got a Wii from a friend who hadn't used it in a year, so I'm going through older games :p

Maybe at some point I can afford a Wii U, although I bet it'll be when they have the Wii V already

The "NX" apparently

That sounds like NGS, the kind where you don't know what to name the following one

"XNX"?

Wii V sounds funny.

heh

Wii V sounds too much like people badly saying Wi-Fi

(people seem to say "wee fee" sometimes..)

And Wii sounds too much like people badly saying "wee" and it never stopped them :p

ocharles_: I assume NX is just their internal codename for that thing

yea

kuno: are you splatooning?

oh. ocharles_: I saw you're using strava?

Does it have significant advantages re:biking over a more generic thing like Endomondo?

ocharles_: Should I be splatooning?

Freso: if you have a Wii U I think you should, it seems to be what everyone who has one is doing all day :p

Freso: yes!

reosarevok: I can't compare, but I'm very happy with Strava + veloviewer

Using the pro version I guess?

Premium, whatever

I am premium on both, yea

Well I'm about to drop 2k on a bike tomorrow... so Strava is cheap compared to my other excessive purchases :p

haha

While I'm biking around on a single-speed town bike

Is it flat there?

~28£ :/

Very :)

Highest point in the country is 317 m

So it's not too bad

But still, not really designed for it

splatoon is fun! I need to play more because I'm terrible at it, but it's fun

ianmcorvidae: my nintendo network id is ocharles if you want to add me :)

I'll do that next time I turn it on! I'm not up to level 10 for ranked battles yet, another facet of "I need to play it more", but

(and I'm ianmcorvidae, as you might guess, heh)

:) i take it far too seriously

(b-/b ranked)

ok, bed now!
