:DF

I did try refining it once before, but it's an endless task

that's my tard face

Haha

nikki: once they know *everything* about you, it'll be slightly better :-p

LotR: yeah, they'd realise that hmv are usually cheaper for the stuff I normally :P

heh, damn, my recommendation on amazon's home page are now all db2 books, thanks muz :P

+buy

Hah

I should so make something to parse ASINs into an IRC presentable format that doesn't need me to explicitly follow the given link.

nikki: so they'd partner with them and send you their spam :)

If only so I can know whether or not to bother clicking.

or you can be sensible and only log in when you're actually making a purchase

You don't know Amazon works, do you? :)

what you're saying makes it sound like you're letting them track random visits. which is your choice, but not one I'd make

"letting them". Heh.

and I could care less exactly how they do it technically

You're still off the mark, and I really can't be arsed to explain it all.

when I clicked on the DB2 link yesterday, I wasn't logged in, now I did log in and it transfered the history to my account

Muz: ogogogo?

it's really not as simple as you think :)

aCiD2: og == go.

oh, thought so

luks: so there's different levels of being tracked. doesn't mean you can't foil it

LotR: but why would I?

luks: right, that's the choice you make. I just wish more people would realize it's a choice they have

How usable is trunk at the moment? I want to test if my performance issues are resolved

sorry, should have mentioned: picard

afaik, a new release is planned soon

So you might be better off waiting until that's done, unless you really want to make a checkout and fight potential dragons. ¬_¬

new release is going to happen next weekend

but trunk is pretty safe to use

gah. its entirely too early to be up. :-(

aww

it's... 8:30ish?

7:35

ruaok: your day does not look fun :(

no. not really. :(

oh well.

might take a nap between meetings tho.

s/between/during crappy and boring/

heh. I'm leading both meetings.

Oh dear.

ah, yeah, I'm still an hour ahead

ruaok: you were showing concern over the size of that report btw - all these are going to be closed by the end of today hopefully (just a few things to discuss with brianfreud):

nice.

I think we still need a better way to gauge progress

"Who The F... Is Alice?" --> "Who The (feat.... Is Alice?)" *giggle*

running picard from trunk I get this: W: 3086481088 16:38:37 No decoders found! Fingerprinting will be disabled.Could this be the cause of the very slow performance on lookups?

are there any difference in speed on puid lookups vs regular ones?

foolish: you should run "./setup.py config" and "./setup.py build_ext -i" before you run picard directly from the source

and PUID lookups are slower because picard needs to calculate the fingerprint, make a request to the musicdns server to get an PUID and finally make the request to MB.org itself

wow, early meeting

yeah, for cory and matt its best if its at 4pm.

the cali boys lose in that case.

ah

how did it go?

well. the board is happy that we're in the black.

happy that we're getting our plans wrt RG and NGS on track.

most of the time board meetings are just me giving an overall status update.

but they get to hear the nitty gritty things from the business side that are not really safe to mention in public.

overall, I'm happy with how the board is working right now. helping me work through some issues. Cory always has dynamite feedback.

good to hear then

ruaok: wow, sounds good.

:D

and sleepy. :)

uh oh, you still have a dev meeting!

enough time for a nap

hihi

nikki: ding!

dong?

oh

ok

Because it's not like this has been revealed as of now. It's been mentioned several times through and through for a long while now.

catgroove: you see, for the brits it's yer regular olde news. "our government wants to set up a secure state. yeah, we know and agree with them. they can log everything we do, everyone we call, everyone we mail. it's to keep up safe, you know?. and no, it's not a police state or a survaillance society because jack straw said so. just think of the children!!111"

hm, maybe i should remove my phone number from my resume.

i've had more recruiters call me this week than friends or family.

brianfreud: ping

nvm, I gotta get some food heh, bbiab!

yum. a glorious nap. now its even my normal wake-up time. :)

:)

time to head to the office. brb

aCiD2: how far is ES on test.mb.org

?

i need to talk to brianfreud about it

I have a few issues to discuss

luks: have you seen the new bzr integration for translations on launchpad?

pong :)

aha :)

outsidecontext: nope, do you have a link?

(to some info)

lp can now automatically import a pot file whenever it changes in a bzr branch

ah

that's nice one

but you have to activate it. i wondered if we should do that

that assumes a versioned pot file, right?

(is ours?)

right

it is

would be nice for mb_server's i18n too

I'd try it

wait, mb_server TT is on trunk now, right?
