MBS-13280: Don't allow nominating unconfirmed editors as autoeditors https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13280

MBS-13281: Don't use "Beginner" for all editors without a confirmed email https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13281

:+1

I'll work on all of them unless you are against any

monkey: interesting. a relevant bug report got some activity this year: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17...

"Discovery is not a viable product"

I've heard this sentiment a few times and BMAT here in barcelona couldn't make recommendations work.

and this really explains why you don't find more music discovery tools in the wild -- this is really good news for us. We're not out to "monitize discovery". We're out to find better music, so this could be a great advantage for us.

reosarevok: Titles look good to me but the second ticket is probably not worth it as autoeditors know that beginners have not enough experience to be nominated.

Yes, but it's a trivial boolean to remove clutter from the profile :)

It's not for beginners, just for unconfirmed editors

"Invest in getting good/clean metadata" and "from artists, songwriters, distributors, labels" don't really go together very well in my experience :/

👍

exactly. we will focuse more on getting community donations to keep LB afloat. and companies will hopefully come to use MB + LB data, so we're not monetizing discovery. We're using it to showcase our data and letting the users benefit from it.

lucifer: the listenbrainz-mbid-mapping seems to not generate a config.py anymore -- I can't invoke manage.py . it seems that this has been broken for a while. do you know about this? am I doing a dumb again?

mayhem: Did you see this in the linkedin thread you posted earlier? http://smarterplaylists.playlistmachinery.com/i...

not yet, but yeah, that's Paul Lamere's tool that John is using.

I don't mind the visualization style for a multi-thread sort of custom playlist

I see

and yeah, very similar to troi.

Could be useful to look at when we talk about the UI for advanced LB-Radio

mayhem: looking into it

thx

Have you used/do you use snapchat, mayhem?

never have.

Ouu

So they have this cool maps feature

But more importantly, they show the bitmojis (the profiles) with a headset on whenever someone is listening to music

I think 2 things: LB could have such a feature. Why can’t we approach snapchat to incorporate and use LB data for listens to show in realtime what people are listening to on their app?

we could. but anytime I go to someone to ask for data, they say one of 2 things: 1) How much you gonna pay for that? 2) WTF, are you insane?

Hahahahah

This is what a user listening to music looks like lol

Not advertising snapchat here, but this is very relevant to LB

tots agree. I just don't see how that can work.... yet.

Yeah

but the more our site becomes used, the more open companies will be about working with us.

walking like this on the middle of a major road lowers live expectancy quite a bit

Hahahaha

except in india, where you have no choice but to walk in the road.

Crossing a budy road in India is equivalent to competing in the olympics

Busy*

:D

nawww. just walk the same consistent speed. whatever speed you want.

just dont hesitate; be confident.

Gotta put this theory to test in November

Who better to perform the test than mayhem himself

I have. Samj and chhavi tought me how. and then I walked off into traffic confidently.

once I got the other side I saw them standing there horrified.

😂😂

"You were supposed to walk into the busiest traffic!"

and me... there is less busy? I just waited for a time with no busses and went for it.

Lol

this is after we ate Biriyani in Delhi. Where I liked mine spicier than all the indians at the table.

I could totally go back to that grubby hole in the wall.

[musicbrainz-server] 14walnut07 opened pull request #3042 (03master…master): Update INSTALL.md's building static resources section https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve...

mayhem: it seems like a consul issue

zas: can you please take a look at the logs of `listenbrainz-mbid-mapping` container on gaga?

lots of connection refused errors

how is this container started?

it seems CONSUL_HOST isn't properly configured

lucifer: https://github.com/metabrainz/docker-server-con... has no CONSUL_HOST/PORT set

zas: i see, i'll fix it

mayhem: its fixed now

[listenbrainz-server] 14amCap1712 opened pull request #2584 (03master…mapping-config-fix): Remove the config file from mbid-mapping Dockerfile https://github.com/metabrainz/listenbrainz-serv...

lucifer: that PR wasn't quite ready yet. I just wanted to test the tests. will uncomment the network config.

and thanks for the fix!

ah okay cool

bitmap, yvanzo: for MBS-13281, is there anything that is_limited restricts that wouldn't already be restricted for editors without an email? Wondering if I should just remove the email_confirmation_date check from is_limited or we'd need to block something else elsewhere in that case...

Let’s have butter chicken with garlic naan this time, mayhem

butter chicken?? whyyyyyyy?

Wait, are you vegan?

This dish is a specialty in north india

no, just anti wimpy indian dishes. :)

gimme a vindaloo. :)

Never had that yet😂 Guess even I need to try that

sweets from streets of old delhi :) https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/Vdexf...

mayhem definitely hates the ordinary

🤨 woah.

awww yiss, lucifer. I'm headed back to the spice market in old delhi!

hehe lol

[bookbrainz-site] 14MonkeyDo merged pull request #1008 (03master…BB-749): BB-749: Links that include "https://" as part of the non-protocol of the URL in Annotations break. https://github.com/metabrainz/bookbrainz-site/p...

I'm experiencing an annoying issue with Bandcamp Importer since few days, I reported it as https://github.com/murdos/musicbrainz-userscrip...

Can someone confirm (on the ticket)?

Not sure what we can do about it though. Ideas are welcome (still on the ticket please).

mayhem: not urgnet, but can you please add https://github.com/metabrainz/listenbrainz-now-... to @coreteam?

done

thanks

reosarevok: not that I can see on a cursory review. so might make sense to just remove the check

I wonder why we even explicitly check it on the notes-received endpoint

ah so they can't disable the checkbox, nvm

zas: atj: jimmy is serving standby requests alongside pink since ~17:30 utc

that's going through pgbouncer -> haproxy -> postgres and it seems to be going fine so far. I just tweaked some haproxy timeout settings to allow long-running requests. the config could use further review

it looks good. I noticed a part of configs we have for telegraf & shorewall aren't in jimmy config

bitmap: did the new pg setup on jimmy require changes in those configs?

the lack of pg/telegraf config is the reason jimmy doesn't appear yet on https://stats.metabrainz.org/d/000000067/postgr...

(and few other dashboards)
