MBS-11866: Interface for mass deletion of accounts https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-11866

👏

Once that works, a lot of that can also be repurposed to not only delete but also flag as spammer or whatnot, hopefully

Also spent some time helping akshaaatt with MB things

And a fair bunch of smaller tickets

Thanks!

I ran a test schema change update with the few bits we've merged already, found one issue and put a fix up

This week I'm planning to work more on schema change stuff

yvanzo: go?

Hi all!

Last week I finally updated and merged MBS release instructions, it makes the release process more transparent to community members.

I also updated another MBS PR that might help with mitigating the I/O load issue we have in production.

On SIR, I fixed building Docker images and integrated more changes by ta264, currently being tested.

Spotted an issue with search indexes dump, zas identifed and fixed the issue that was with our NFS setup.

Helped with maintenance operations by moving RabbitMQ instance to another server, lucifer did the move back.

Plus MBS PR reviews and support, that’s all folks!

Go lucifer?

hi all!

last week i discussed various gsoc related ideas and applications with mayhem, monkey and alastairp. this including deciding the direction of the MLHD related exploratory work, how to handle timezones in ListenBrainz. various new features like Release radar, send a track etc.

need an emoji for "running around like crazy doing lots of things"

i helped alastairp with some long standing CB PRs and also progressed on the ListenBrainz mini reviews feature. its been pending since last GSoC but i think we may be able to get it done this week.

🎉

other than that helped with MeB infra maintenance.

that's it for me. alastairp: next ?

hi

(Still up: monkey, zas, bitmap, mayhem, atj?, Freso – anyone else who want to give review, let me know ASAP!)

"MeB infra maintenance" lol. noticed and averted a minor disaster more like. :)

for me, most of the "I did stuff with alastairp" comments from lucifer :) lots of discussion about SoC projects, and reviewing some proposals

in CB news, finally finished some of the really old pending PRs that we never got around to. also reviewed and released some new PRs from Ansh, thank you for that Ansh

some upgrades for CB and LB to python 3.10 and flask 2

mayhem: hehe lol

it was a team effort :)

some planning with monkey how to go about this month's task to move template rendering in LB from jinja to react server-side-rendered (like MB does), and some LB work on automatically updating the metadata cache

I also helped on the, uh, "infra maintenance" with lucifer

monkey: up next?

Last week i continued work on the LB metadata viewer. React component is almost done, now it's time to connect it to the API !

I worked on fixing some regressions in BookBrainz with the latest version, and deployed that to beta

Investigated and made a plan for how to handle, format and store ISBNs, because it's complicated.

Reviewed PRs and GSoC applications, and did some issue triage

That's me ! bitmap go !

hey

last week I was mostly doing MB code review and working more on schema change tickets

have everything submitted except the area_containment one which I hope to submit early this week. fixed a bunch of test failures in the others

worked on MBS-12297 which surfaced when I was fixing test failures

MBS-12297: Filter out tags with negative counts from the web service https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-12297

also helped move MB Redis services off of rakim and onto patton yesterday

fin! go mayhem

hi!

last week was moving the mb metadata cache to the bulk insert table and also picking up the similar artists work..

(Only zas, maybe atj?, and myself are left. Last call for anyone else who wish to give review!)

for similar artists, I just want to generate one batch over our whole dataset so I can replace the very old can decrepit artist similarity data we have now.

lots of gsoc thiking and planning as well as the normal background Meb BS tasks.

had a conversation with a possible uniforn with great strategic value, that that was nice too.

fin. zas!

hey

how much synergy?

up and to the left

vertically integrate synergy is practically exceeding KPIs, alastairp .

I continued to work on new gateways, I did a bunch of benchmarks to evaluate current limits

basically rudi alone is able to handle 15k https requests per second

const-level?

C-BS-O

I also helped yvanzo on an NFS issue on solr cloud

perfect!

lolol

plus Picard PRs reviews, and usual maintenance

15k/sec?? WOAH

last two days were very busy, trying to fix a misconfiguration that was leading to unexpected open ports

I'd like to thank everyone that helped on this

mad props to yvanzo, lucifer, zas, and atj for their work over the weekend

srsly! well done, team!

+100

today I set up a port scanner to ensure it doesn't happen without being noticed

zas: ohhh, are you running that on google cloud? They'd love that!

we still have to coordinate to reboot pink, floyd & gaga

mayhem: it runs on moroder (hetzner)

phew

that's it for me. Freso?

🙋

Dealing with reports, forum flags, forum stuff, etc. The usual stuff.

fin.

No word from atj, so this wraps up reviews. Thank you all for yours!

A couple of additional items on the agenda, so…

lucifer: Security Meeting

hi all! can we schedule a meeting to review the security measures we have in place, how to enhance them and related stuff?

ideally all people with access to MeB infra would be around for it.

seems like a decent plan/.

thoughts zas, atj ?

I think this weekend has shown we need to yes

Hi! I'm currently works on the PR of the Integrate more music services. It said we can provide Deezer and AppleMusic, I have add the Apple Music as the component of the menu. But I found that there is no Deezer icron. It seems that because the we are using the Font Awesome 5, if we want to use Deezer we need to update to FontAwesome 6

i have started a document at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qCRswB0eLn8... for possible things to discuss.

Xianyi: currently regular meeting is going on, we can help after ~15 mins.

Xianyi: We’re currently in a meeting. We’ll probably be done in ~10 min. :)

lucifer has a doc that he shared with me, which I think has a lot of good starting points

I agree, ofc

perhaps we should just schedule it for an hour prior to normal meeting time.

except, I'm not around next monday.

it's OK for us to update to FontAweSome6?

(easter week in spain)

mayhem: sure, but perhaps one day this week rather than next monday, given the next item on the agenda

maybe tuesday?

Freso

Xianyi: We’re currently in a meeting. We’ll probably be done in ~10 min. :)

we can do it on Tuesday, meeting time (tomorrow?)

or yeah this week if possible.

Is it urgent?

if before friday, sure. but tuesday sounds doable.

I'm not available tomorrow evening

Freso Ok~ thank you!

not particularly Freso but the sooner the better.

Tuesday next week then?

fine by me

OK for me

I was thinking next tuesday. that works for me

sgtm

Ok

Works for me as well

bitmap, reosarevok: ^

Tuesday 19th, regular meeting time then?

👍

sounds good

yup sounds good. let's confirm with atj too when he's around.

Let’s assume it’s okay for reosarevok too and move on?

Sorry!

Can do, I expect, yes

I think that’s everyone other than atj then.

So let’s move on. :)

alastair: Next meeting (Easter monday)

just a comment that next monday is a public holiday in many countries where we are from. mayhem has already mentioned he'll be away, and I will too

Same for me

"holy week"

more like "holey week"

That’s three people already. Let’s call it off. :)

deal.

the 3 adopted spanish people

the tuesday meeting will be enough for the week. when drill sargent lucifer takes the rest of the MeB team to task. :)

Unless anyone objects loudly in the next 30 seconds, let’s make it so.

🤣

Seems like no. No meeting next week then. :)
