#metabrainz

Finally, it feels like progress!

oh i already request with the new confidence function :(. should i cancel it and request these ranks first?

bitmap, reosarevok do we know of any hack to have the recent additions cover arts fetched locally?

[musicbrainz-docker] 14yvanzo merged pull request #222 (03master…secure-dev-ports): Secure published ports in development setup https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-docke...

Anyone played with Postgres' full-text search capabilities? I'm looking to add search based on a release group's title + artist. Would you go with one of the default configurations? If so, which one? If not, is there anyone you recommend?

mayhem can tell you about the config we used in our experiments.

that'd be awesome. I'm pretty new to this stuff, just reading about it yesterday, and I figured I might go with the 'simple' one, since release groups might not be just english-specific. But if I searched for "stimul" it wouldn't match "stimulator" (which makes sense for 'simple', but...)

q3lont: yes, that is a good insight.

there are other facets that influenced our decisions -- spelling mistakes and scalability.

if you need to correct for spelling mistakes or other minor textual errors, then you need a fuzzy version of search -- postgres trigram work great for that.

but they have the downside that they get very very slow the more fuzziness a query has.

which for us is a dealbreaker. we need our solutions to be more scalable.

which is why we use typesense instead of postgres.

might I ask for which project is that? for musicbrainz.org?

it is for our MBID mapping.

You can give it an artist name and recording name and it will find the best match for it.

one of the hardest projects I've ever worked on, honestly.

lucifer: top artist playlist is good now!

ah nice

awesome, will this (mbid-mapping) be a public API? I may use it for my fun project that I'm building

it already is. at the link above.

there are 2 other endpoints available as well which give more detailed info. but i think i forgot to document those.

yeah just checked not there yet, i'll add the docs.

Ansh: hi, I moved CB a few days ago to a new server, and I might have messed up the version that I released, let me check. thanks for reporting it

fish

alastairp: I think lucifer jumped to the rescue and updated CB accordingly

so I see, thanks lucifer

did I upgrade CB last time by manually editing the file without committing it?

yup CB is running latest version now.

must have

probably docker-server-configs wasn;t updated.

<BANG>

It’s World Malaria Monday!

No mailed in reviews, so the regulars are up: lucifer, mayhem, akshaaatt, reosarevok, atj, bitmap, zas, alastairp, yvanzo, monkey, CatQuest, Freso – anyone else who want to give review, let me know ASAP. :)

lucifer: Go!

hi all!

I am here too Freso :)

aerozol! morena!

happy 5am aerozol!

:D buenos días!

Eek, 5AM.

previous 2 weeks was lots of work on recommendations and related stuff. other than that some LB bug fixes, helping GSoC applicants with applications. and also participated in the secrity meeting. fin.

mayhem: next?

last week I personally had a rough week so, I didn't really get as much done as I had wanted.

most the usual BS for metabrainz as well as gsoc application triaging.

we had a slow start to GSoC but in the end we recveived a lot of good applications.

and the WTF applications were *extra* WTF this time around.

fun to read certainly.

:D

!m GSoC participants !

You're doing good work, GSoC participants !!

amazing!

lucifer: and I have been working on recommendations and trying to get them to improve with loads of tuning. we now have better tools, better understanding and our recommended tracks are improving quite a lot.

I hope to write troi-bot part this week that will give all users who follow troi-bot daily playlists so we can all start complaning about them.

its been a really long road to get here, but now we're days away.

stellar job MeB team!

aerozol: go!

Kia ora! It's been a slow few weeks/months for me, buried in other work

but also partly because I've been trying to tease things apart in a design sense

so it's been slow going, but hopefully important stuff

mainly standardising all the logos, so that we now have a library of logos in the logo repo

that all match and are ready to go

!m aerozol

You're doing good work, aerozol!

if I catch anyone using an old one.... ;P

!m aerozol

You're doing good work, aerozol!

Also putting together some guidelines for MetaBrainz design and MusicBrainz design

I'm soo happy the logos got sorted.

Initially I was hoping to have one doc that covers all projects but I should have realised they were too different already

It would be great to get feedback on the design docs after, because the timings good with GSOC applicants lately

They all ask very similar questions and some docs might help!

+1

That's my novel done, go akshaaatt!

hi!

For the past few days, I have been learning loads of new stuff.

I have finally made the integration of ListenBrainz in the MB Android App at https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-andro... and it is superb! The app is gonna get 5 times the users if things go as planned :)

reocodespam <3

also spent a lot of time debugging issues and resolving them.

The best news I have so far is that https://test.musicbrainz.org has been made responsive and things look wonderful and I'm enjoying it like crazy.

Do check it out!

That's about it for me. Coordinating on some GSoC stuff and yeah the usual! fin!

Go alastairp!

wow, great work on test, akshaaatt!

hi

(Still up: reosarevok, atj, bitmap, zas, yvanzo, monkey, CatQuest, Freso – anyone else who want to give review, let me know ASAP. :))

very quiet week for me last week - we had family at home plus the short week I didn't get much done at all

I did some back-and-forward with people to finish gsoc proposals, wd to everyone who submitted those, I reviewed some CB PRs, and responded to a security bug in CB

I attended the MeB security meeting

I did some planning after discussion with monkey on what was going to be our next dev sprint - to introduce react server side rendering to LB, let's see if I have time before the end of the month to make progress on that

that's me, reosarevok next?

Hi

I worked on implementing a bunch of stuff for genres that is allowed by the schema changes (annotations, URL relationships, boring aliases that do nothing useful yet but at least exist)

aliases!

boring aliases!

that do nothing yet!

But yeah

:DDD

And I tried to debug the wikidatabot, Mineo helped a bit, we might have found the issues (didn't have time to check yet because I spent today fixing new small tickets)

\o/

excited about any genre updates woo

Hopefully I can have it working properly by the end of the week? No promises yet

Anyway, go CatQuest!

Meow! `😺`

so, this week I was a lot more productive than I was expecting.

did work and

swept outside and planted flower-leeks and other spring things

sadly those things aren't really brainz related,

But I did infact manage to add a few tickets and test beta Bookbrainz and

!m monkey for the new beta-release routine!

You're doing good work, monkey for the new beta-release routine!!

as well as adding some books and releases and retagging and suches.

had some discussion on the community.. thanks kellnerd, indy, monkey and aerozol for lots of interesting input.

This week I will also be doing much of the same, but I hope to also be able to squeeze an instrument or two in as well ♓

fin, go monkey!

Hi !

(Still up: atj, bitmap, zas, yvanzo, Freso – anyone else who want to give review, let me know ASAP. :))

For the past two weeks I did a lot of reviewing GSoC applications and PR Reviews.
Again congrats to everyone who submitted a proposal !

I continued work on the LB metadata viewer, and investigated some potential BrainzPlayer bugs

any chance we can deploy that soon? even if it isn't perfect, so we can keep testing.

Lots of dicsussions in Bookbrainz forums, deploying a new release and continuing fixing issues

Finally, did some admin and database maintenance, ticket triage and such

Oh, and I fixed Korea.

Yes, you read that right

woah.

can you fix russia next?

yes please...

oh no.

In real life, I'm currently in the process of moving apartments, which means lots of packing, which means less time for work.

That's it for me ! atj go !

but your new house looks great!

If you want Russia to be fixed, make a ticket at least, geez

and I hope you voted for the lesser of two evils too!

lol

Congrats on the new house monkey!

hi

aerozol: lmao

mayhem: I see, hear or speak no evil, remember?
