<aerozol[m]> "Granth Bagadia: I think it looks..." <- That would be great

* We could use [this](https://fontawesome.com/icons/calendar-check?s=solid) or you could design a custom icon

That looks good, I think. Could we please make it purple? Let’s get our other designer’s opinion as well - monkey, what do you think of the icon Granth Bagadia linked above, to mark today in the Fresh Releases timeline? They also suggested the text “today” but I thought it blended in too much

e.g. no icon, just the text, see their image above in the chat

This looks better, it stands out

mayhem, monkey, ansh i won't be able to make it to the LB meeting today. can we reschedule it to same time tomorrow?

<lucifer[m]> "mayhem, monkey, ansh i won't..." <- Yep, even I'm not available today. Tomorrow at the same time works for me

if the meeting is only half hour long, I can make that timeslot tomorrow.

<BrainzGit> "[listenbrainz-server] granth23..." <- Hi, I've opened a new PR regarding an update in the document, the documentation lacked information about necessary configuration changes for users working with a port other than `8100` or a host other than `localhost`. So I've updated the configuration file to include details for working with different ports or hosts and also added a note in the server documentation for user

assistance regarding the same. Please review the sane and let me know if any additional details or corrections are required.

<ansh[m]> "Yep, even I'm not available..." <- I can do tomorrow. If we need more than 30m (I suspect probably), maybe we can start 30m earlier than usual time?

monkey[m]: starting earlier works for me.

Hello, @monkey Can I work on LB-1721? For now I was thinking of doing it just for LastFM and would move to rest of the setting once LastFM is done. I have already made a comment explaining what I am thinking of changing in the ticket.

LB-1721: Improve saving LastFM settings in Connect Music Services page https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/LB-1721

monkey:

Hi Gaurav993 (IRC): yes of course, assign the ticket to yourself and off you go :)... (full message at <https://matrix.chatbrainz.org/_matrix/media/v3/...>)

monkey[m]: Ok, I will make changes as you have instructed and create a PR for now.

Gaurav993 (IRC): a mockup first would be better, they are fast to make and that way if we need to change things you haven't spent a load of time implementing

I mean a visual mockup

monkey[m]: Ok, got it. I will quickly make the frontend and just send a screenshot of it.

That's usually what I do too :) Or sometimes directly edit the html page from the web console. Whatever works for you !

Ok

monkey[m]: Here, the Submit button will only be visible for connecting to Last.FM and Import loved tracks, not for Disable. Same for ability to edit input fields. Sharing the image using discord server.

Looking good! I think the button is too big, and it creates confusion with the other large green buttons. What do you think of placing it in line with the inputs like so?

Also I'm not sure what you mean by "only be visible for connecting to Last.FM", but I think the content of this component should not change depending on which state (connect/not connected) the user is in. Just disabling the inputs and submit button when the user is not connected to LFM would be an improvement though

monkey[m]: The button you made also looks good. I will make it that way. Ok I will just disable the button instead of hiding it. Thanks for the help.

Gaurav993 (IRC): Here's the css styling I used for the button placement in its flex parent: `flex: 0; align-self: end;`

Ok, will use it. Thanks.

<aerozol[m]> "I might have mentioned it before..." <- After doing a bunch more research I think the one I initially tested is more or less good across the board. The only places it struggles a bit where I’m not sure why is metal and some classical jazz. The model is open source though I could try to improve the training in those areas and see if it fixes it

igold94[m]: The meter detection model is not good though so that’s something I’m going to have to build but I think the same or a similar model architecture should do a good job

igold94[m]: I started a thread with the researcher who designed all this to pick his brain we’ll see what he says

igold94[m]: IMO there could be enormous utility in the *brainz community to produce datasets for training… it’s really tedious for me to label thousands of tracks with meter and or tempo. If we could get the community involved that would be a game changer

lucifer: Hi! I'm looking at Sentry tickets, and this one makes me think it is possible to set up the lastfm importer with an empty username, which results in a 400 error:... (full message at <https://matrix.chatbrainz.org/_matrix/media/v3/...>)

Any thoughts?

yvanzo, bitmap: working on releasing prod, stopping for dinner, will get back to it in a bit :)

jasje: Hello! I see some errors in sentry attached to your user account, specifically about the feed in LB and personal recommendations. Something about 'track_metadata: none is not an allowed value'.

I was wondering if you were seeing issues or something, and if I can help debug what is going on. Supposedly this could be related to app development? Let me know.

The blog post can be reviewed, in the meantime :)

monkey: this was on a debug build but definitely shouldn't happen

It would great if i could get the logs

These are API calls logs, I just wanted to 1. make sure it's a debugging thing and not an actual issue affecting other users and 2. if you needed help debugging, well I have more debug info :)

Yuss

jasje: Can you access https://sentry.metabrainz.org/organizations/met... ?

monkey: cannot :(

OK, sending you logs

<reosarevok[m]> "The blog post can be reviewed..." <- thanks, lgtm!

Welcome to another MetaBrainz Monday Meeting!

I have one mailed-in review:

julian45 says:

'''

hi all! by the time you read this i will likely be out cold for (minor) surgery 💤

i anticipate a quick recovery and plan to continue some of the ansible work i started last week with input from @zas and @atj's input as appropriate, and with some of my downtime i also intend to finish up a couple of tech proposals for eventual discussion with the team as appropriate.

'''

Recover well but take your time as needed!

On my list for today: atj, mayhem, aerozol, reosarevok, lucifer, MonkeyPython, jasje, kellnerd, Shreyas, bitmap, ansh, zas, monkey, yvanzo, outsidecontext

First in the list who is clearly around is mayhem, wanna start?

oy!

last week was super busy!

út!

doing the end year accounting, which was a PITA, but is now done.

and also did most of the contractor contracts today and caught up on email.

getting back to technical work, reviewing PRs and such.

I've also been working on getting the LB mapping cron jobs to be stable -- there were a lot more problems that expected, but now we will have a graphical view of the cron jobs in sentry.

almost all cron jobs are not running as expected and will continue to fiddle with the last one.

Now? :)

we've also gotten approved for using sentry in the cloud, but there are a few things still to consider before moving.

fin. reosarevok go

I meant, "not running" -> "now running"?

Also, post-accounting PR reviews, the only time someone looks forward to PR reviews.

This week I mostly worked on getting a lot of PRs merged with bitmap plus tried to do one or two small PRs per day to claw back on the holidays backlog

mayhem[m]: happy cron jobs.

Why don't our users stop using MB during the holidays, huh?

Today I'm releasing production after a while, including the code to show primary aliases for almost everything almost everywhere

Hopefully less people will feel the need to add translations to disambiguation comments now :)

That's about it for me, what about aerozol?

Still on my list for today: atj, lucifer, MonkeyPython, jasje, kellnerd, Shreyas, bitmap, ansh, zas, monkey, yvanzo, outsidecontext

Mōrena!

Last week I was back from holiday (well, family time), but not back at other work yet, so I managed to get some stuff done!

Quite a bit of MB style stuff that had been bugging me

But mainly finished a MeB website review that mayhem had patiently been waiting for for a while

And a solid start on a MB homepage redesign mockup...

Plus some other stuff but boooring

go kellnerd

Hey there!

I thought I would have nothing to report this week
