#metabrainz

we also had some MB team meetings to discuss PRs and whatnot

alastairp: same, but I assume it's for Mike?

alastairp: named after https://musicbrainz.org/artist/6e891631-d99c-47... (suggested by monkey)

that's all from me. go reosarevok

Hi!

reosarevok: indeed

Last week I worked on a few smaller PRs, and I started trying to make sense of the guess case code to update it to the 21st century

Still ongoing, as anyone who saw the previous convo in this here our channel will know

MBS-9426: Interface to remove usernames from blocked list https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9426

MBS-11828: Add admin interface for checking whether a username is blocked https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-11828

🙌

But really, I can use those too for support uses, so I'm being selfish here :p

I also started trying to organize my working day a bit more by actually setting up in advance what to work on in my Notion journal/calendar/thingy

So far it seems practical

This week I have a bunch of small tickets preselected, plus more of the guess case mess

That sounds great reosarevok !

Fin, CatQuest?

CatQuest said they were in a pickle

oh. Pickling, sorry.

So

Hi everyone!

This week we did the release as lucifer mentioned :)

I even had a blog out on the blogs.meb page

!m akshaaatt[m]

You're doing good work, akshaaatt[m]!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=o... Update please everyone!

Thanks to lucifer for the constant support!

!m lucifer & akshaaatt[m]

You're doing good work, lucifer & akshaaatt[m]!

!m lucifer

You're doing good work, lucifer!

Hah!

Other than that I'm really really studying a lot of DSA and solving problems. Quite exhausted!

Will work on finalizing my GSoC project in the upcoming weeks!

That's it for me. fin!

Freso next?

o/

I poked at some more ListenBrainz spammers and have cleared out a couple more accounts.

Dealt with some reported editors and some forums flags.

Oh, resumed meeting notes for these meetings too.

!m Freso

You're doing good work, Freso!

Tried to be a bit more actively/visibly around and about too.

fin.

alastairp: Go!

I can't find a pickle emoji

so cucumber it is

(Only jasondk, ritiek, and akashgp09 are left on my list. Last call for others who may wish to give review!)

last week I attended a conference, presenting some work that I had done at UPF: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3469013.3469017, so as a result I wasn't around too much

I did some code review for LB that went towards last week's release

I spent some time writing a blog post for AB's acoustic similarity, but that's not finished yet. planning to get that out this week

I converted AB's javascript code to TS

I worked with lucifer on a few backend tasks in pythonbrainzes

I'll be around FT for the first 2 weeks of august, and then away for 3 weeks.

next up, jasondk?

hi all!

last week I did some refactoring of some old code https://github.com/metabrainz/listenbrainz-serv...

and I began creating the frontend review modal component on the CB x LB integration project I'm working on with lucifer.

I'll continue to flesh that out this week.

I also went apartment hunting since schools starting up again in a bit :3

That's it from me. ritiek?

hi

last week i worked on getting level relationship includes support in musicbrainz_rs

i also added search support on a few entities

and improved our library docs

that's it from me

akashgp09: go!

Hi Everyone!

Last week I worked on reverting some of the changes of relationship Editor https://github.com/bookbrainz/bookbrainz-site/p...

Created a new series editor component for adding series items and setting the attribute's value for the item https://github.com/bookbrainz/bookbrainz-site/p...

that's it for me. thank you :)

Oh, that’s all!

Thank you everyone who gave reviews!

We have two additional items on today’s agenda, starting with…

reo: personal data in edit history

(Revisit/resuming from last week.)

reosarevok:

Hi!

ruaok: around?

yep

Ok

So: we discussed this a bit last week without ruaok but I wanted his input

We already remove birth dates from the database on request, because we consider them personal data

But that leaves them in the edit note history (which is fairly public nowadays)

I was asked on support a bit over a week ago about removing them from edit data, and it seems sensible if we're going to redact them

I got some suggestions about ideally storing these dates as effectively [REDACTED]

Since we don't want to remove the edit, just hide the data

+1 to that

That seems sane

not sure how easy/clean that is to implement

Not particularly, but should be doable, so if we know we want to move toward it we can look into it

If you like the idea, I'll add a ticket

yes, please.

Ok!

we do have a ./admin/EditEdit.pl scrupt already, we could make that nicer

script*

I like it when bitmap volunteers

lol

:D

!m bitmap

You're doing good work, bitmap!

So, uh, anything more we need to decide on this topic now?

I think not

Alright!

I'm making a ticket

Let’s move on the next item on the agenda.

reosarevok: Great. Thanks. :)

bitmap: Amazon cover art

ok

so this is re MBS-11082 - since sometime last year, the API we use to fetch amazon artwork changed

MBS-11082: releases used to show Amazon cover art if not in Cover Art Archive https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-11082

we could fix it, I think, though it's a lot more complicated with having to sign requests and all

do we want to bother keeping this now that that CAA is well established?

I mean, I’ve been arguing for dropping the Amazon stuff for years. :p

do you have a feel for how often we have things in CAA vs amazon?

do we miss out on 1 in 10 images or 1 in 3?

From https://beta.musicbrainz.org/statistics

oh wow.

!m musicbrainz

You're doing good work, musicbrainz!

drop that shit, bitmap

hi sorry, here now

alright then!

that's very few amazon things

ahhh, that feels *really* good.

one questing does the actual amazon link in the sidebar still have the musicbrainz referrer i it?

that number surprised me too

That's

KassOtsimine: Don’t think that has changed or is related to this at all.

It might be that it doesn't count the ones that are currently broken?

i think some people have been going around replacing amazone links with contence from there in caa (or better)
