Still been sick and having to work like crazy 😵💫
2024-09-09 25325, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Starting to get worried that I won’t be better by the summit, but surely that’s far enough away (knock on wood!!)
2024-09-09 25330, 2024
Jigen
:( get better aerozol
2024-09-09 25335, 2024
reosarevok[m]
I’ve basically been doing my best to keep my head above water with MeB work - a bit of GSoC design checking, staying on top of socials, wiki updates, and some brainstorming and mockups for the upcoming LB donator feature.
2024-09-09 25342, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Getting really excited about the summit now, see some of you very soon!
2024-09-09 25319, 2024

And yvanzo says

reosarevok[m]
"Weblate authentication is experiencing issues at the moment."
2024-09-09 25339, 2024
reosarevok[m]
That might be his review, or he might have accidentally pasted an error message instead
2024-09-09 25343, 2024
reosarevok[m]
I guess we'll never know

(maybe derat doesn't want in, but he keeps doing MB stuff so if around he should brag)
2024-09-09 25340, 2024
reosarevok[m]
mayhem: wanna start?
2024-09-09 25352, 2024
mayhem[m]
sure
2024-09-09 25347, 2024
mayhem[m]
last week was a whole lot of meb nonsense. chasing after people to give us more money, dealing with invoice, payment portals and all that sort of stuff. we're still running a deficit, so I'm working hard to try and close that gap.
2024-09-09 25356, 2024
mayhem[m]
progress is slow, but I'm at least making progress.
2024-09-09 25335, 2024
mayhem[m]
and our accountant informed us to we're getting dangerously close to not demonstrating "public support" as per the US IRS.
2024-09-09 25306, 2024
mayhem[m]
failing to do that, could put our tax-exempt status into jeopardy. and that is very much not good.

to that end, I've started a hasty project to create a new donation page for LB.
2024-09-09 25353, 2024
mayhem[m]
and, gasp, I set a deadline for getting it done: we should release it during the summit, just prior to the beginning of Q4.
2024-09-09 25316, 2024
mayhem[m]
the idea is that we have three months to try and collect more donations from lots of people in order to bolster our public support test.
2024-09-09 25300, 2024
mayhem[m]
and the overall goal is to get more serious about donations -- this is something I never really wanted to do for MB. being too strong in asking for donations on a project where people are helping you collect data.

2024-09-09 25335, 2024
mayhem[m]
but, LB is different. while people give us data, albeit passively, the average LB user doesn't give much back to us.
2024-09-09 25357, 2024
mayhem[m]
so, the goal is to having LB donations cover our hosting costs, which are rising... mostly because of LB.
2024-09-09 25316, 2024
mayhem[m]
lots to do on this front.
2024-09-09 25336, 2024
reosarevok[m]
This almost sounds like it should have been a separate agenda topic already 😅
2024-09-09 25342, 2024
reosarevok[m]
If you want to discuss it further, we could make it one? :)

Jade[m]
Could adding donator badges on listenbrainz be a thing? That would give a little social incentive to donate?
2024-09-09 25358, 2024
mayhem[m]
also, summit attendees: make sure to bring some chocolate to the summit. and pack it well insulated into the center of your suitcase -- delhi is hott. once you get to the hotel, make sure to move the choco to a fridge.
2024-09-09 25310, 2024
mayhem[m]
Jigen: literally that. yes, that.
2024-09-09 25321, 2024
mayhem[m]
Jade[m]: that is exactly the plan.
2024-09-09 25329, 2024
mayhem[m]
I'll find the design doc in just a sec.

2024-09-09 25354, 2024
mayhem[m]
reosarevok: for now, we're good to go on this. we'll pick this topic up at the summit in detail.
2024-09-09 25359, 2024

I'll donate 100squid if i can have a specialised lupin themed badge

2024-09-09 25312, 2024
Jigen
Anyway, started moving over links for the work environment
2024-09-09 25312, 2024
Jigen
rearrange a bit of Piano instrument links to order things better and for dipping my toes into editing again. I'm hyped for instrument work!.
other than that I'm fullup with online AND offline junk and summit stuff
2024-09-09 25353, 2024

So, last week I spent quite a bit of time improving a PR we got to convert some more form components to React
2024-09-09 25311, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Now that event is converted and seems to be working, hopefully we can move on with most of those
2024-09-09 25341, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Additionally, I updated our eslint deps, found out eslint or the parser we use is borked, sent a bug report upstream...
2024-09-09 25329, 2024
reosarevok[m]
I released prod after a long-ish pause (tiny update, mostly all by derat but it's good to not keep stuff waiting)
2024-09-09 25311, 2024
reosarevok[m]
And I dealt with libera so we can have the newly in use again #listenbrainz channel running all nicely
2024-09-09 25359, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Plus some Spanish translation, fixing some broken Wikipedia links, and adding a lot of missing music so I can clear more of my missing data page in ListenBrainz

Yeah, i don't usually like adding the stuff I like listening to, it's a lot more boring than editing classical

Hello !
2024-09-09 25352, 2024
monkey[m]
Last week I worked on the summit t-shirt design, and happy to say they were ordered today, in the nick of time.
2024-09-09 25305, 2024
monkey[m]
I talked with the LB team about making donations more prominent on LB, and how to entice our users to donate. Started work on that today.
2024-09-09 25322, 2024
monkey[m]
Had a good video chat with ansh to organize upcoming work on LB, and after that looked a bit into query caching to optimize cover art loading, as he suggested.
2024-09-09 25340, 2024
monkey[m]
And finally did some more bug testing on LB and BB and closed some SEC tickets
2024-09-09 25352, 2024

That's me! kellnerd go !

Hey there 👋
2024-09-09 25327, 2024
kellnerd[m]
This week I got back into BB, basically finishing what I left two weeks ago after the basics of the combined pending/accepted entity pages were working.
2024-09-09 25349, 2024
kellnerd[m]
This involves trying to follow older code (including my own from last month 👀, before I got distracted by uni) and eliminating unused code blocks.
2024-09-09 25302, 2024
kellnerd[m]
Some of them being eight years old and unused since four... 😇
2024-09-09 25329, 2024
kellnerd[m]
I also reviewed aerozol's first userscript PR 🎉 - we may still succeed in turning him into a coder in the long run 😜
2024-09-09 25300, 2024
kellnerd[m]
And finally getting quite a few things prepared and organized for the Delhi summit and traveling.
2024-09-09 25329, 2024

Last Week, I worked on adding Music Neighbourhood Web to Artist Page and worked on fixing the ordering of albums.
2024-09-09 25334, 2024
kellnerd[m] wonders why Element is always hanging when it is my turn at a Monday meeeting
2024-09-09 25342, 2024
ansh[m]
I continued working on stat page tickets, and also fixed some bugs on the Fresh Releases page.

last week was nothing much, fixed some code to make things work for bitmap to run the mb archiver app
2024-09-09 25305, 2024
bitmap[m]
monkey[m]: from all the confetti you're sending (does anyone else get that effect?)
2024-09-09 25334, 2024
yellowhatpro[m]
added a script that I can use later to push images to container registry, although it is for dev image now, but will make it work for prod as well
2024-09-09 25351, 2024
yellowhatpro[m]
that's it for me, bitmap next?
2024-09-09 25355, 2024

was also working on setting up a mb-exurl-ia-service test container for yellowhatpro's project...ran into a few tiny issues which he fixed, so plan to test those today 🤞
2024-09-09 25341, 2024
bitmap[m]
other than that, was trying to debug test failures in the React 19 PR again, and started looking into MBS-13715 late yesterday (sorry, I know it's annoying to people)
