[14:51:43] meeple27: greetings from ubuntu 16.04 :) last night i managed to get my macbook air dual booting. surprised at how much works out of the box... the linux future is now! [14:52:18] just had to do some vudu to get my camera working, and for some reason my external display isn't working, but otherwise pretty much everything else i regularly rely on seems to work (oh, other than suspend) [14:57:17] also, the speed of install was (and speed of the os is...) incredible with this newfangled modern hardware :p [16:07:32] anyone around and willing to help me with a quick a/v test? [16:45:20] awjr: \o/ welcome back to the linux cult...I mean family! [16:45:28] I could do a quick a/v test [17:19:39] maxbinder: did you just call awjr "marti" (in email)? :P [17:20:45] meeple27: yikes, I got fooled by gmail's UI and didn't realize Marti didn't reply all [17:20:51] so only I saw her email [17:49:09] meeple27: still free for a/v test? [17:49:46] awjr: nope, but could do one in 70 minutes [17:49:52] maxbinder: no problem, if it was marti johnson, i am honored to be called marti :D [17:49:55] meeple27: ok thanks [17:50:24] maxbinder: are you free for a quick a/v test? or ggellerman or jaufrecht ? [17:50:36] awjr: perhaps in a couple [17:50:41] maxbinder: cool thnx [17:50:56] awjr: you type fast ;) [17:51:06] :) [17:51:07] looks like maxbinder: is covered [18:18:41] 06Team-Practices, 10Phlogiston (Technical Debt): Phlogiston can categorize tasks according to single project ID. - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143040#2565311 (10JAufrecht) [18:22:05] 06Team-Practices, 10Phlogiston (Burnup-Support): Phlogiston can categorize tasks according to multiple tags. - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139814#2565314 (10JAufrecht) 05Open>03Invalid This functionality already exists in Phlogiston.

Currently each TPG goal... [20:28:43] awjr jaufrecht and others: I'm about to move my "how to plan and run offsites" skeleton out of my user page, and could use guidance for where to put it [20:29:10] on mw.o, should it be a sub-page of Team Practices, or should it be at the top level, or is there some other page it should be a sub of? [20:29:27] sub-page of Team Practices [20:30:22] although it's being worked on by TPG, it goes way beyond TPG. It touches admin, travel, finance. It will be used by non-technical teams like legal. I'm hoping it will be useful beyond the foundation. [20:30:59] but I'm also running in to that weird thing that technically mw.o is about MediaWiki, and this whole topic really has nothing to do with MediaWiki. It only barely has to do with teams who work on MediaWiki [20:31:12] (I realize that's a longstanding disconnect that I'm not going to solve here) [20:31:50] I quickly decided it doesn't belong on enwiki, meta, or wmf.o. And I want it public, not private, so not office wiki [20:44:00] * meeple27 enjoys the sound of crickets [21:00:24] meeple27: yeah, this is the neverending debate [21:00:32] i think technically all our stuff should be on meta [21:00:42] there are reasons they are not [21:00:49] but those reasons have long since been forgotten [21:02:08] i would vote for wmf.o, really, or wikimedia.org [21:02:14] not that either of those will happen [21:16:08] :p [21:52:38] awjr: meeple27: maxbinder: Oops! vote for tea time ;) [21:53:19] it seems that old votes weren't cleared out [21:53:47] oh. they weren't earlier, so i voted, and now they have been cleared :P [21:54:22] jaufrecht: at one point i had fixed the sparkline formula to avoid the ugly N/A when there is only 1 week of data, but my formula seems to have been lost :( [21:59:35] hmm. [21:59:45] My workaround for that is to put 0s in all of the empty cells [21:59:51] with font color white so they are invisible [22:00:02] if there's a formula fix, that would be both exciting and unessential [22:00:29] yikes hard to choose, good topics proposed [22:01:35] can we purge row 4? [22:01:46] oh no [22:02:00] there's like one person each week who votes for it [22:02:13] ok 2 people [22:02:26] awjr boldly casts 4 votes [22:02:33] ?! [22:02:36] oh dang [22:02:38] you're right [22:02:44] ergh [22:02:44] awjr: I am really interested in spectrum of engagement, but did not vote for it so that kristen could participate [22:03:36] ggellerman: legit, that helps me figure out what to do with my one-too-many votes, thank you :) [22:03:54] awjr: glad to help :) [22:04:49] the way i understand rows 8 and 9, they seem very much related [22:06:21] row 8 currently seems meaningless [22:08:04] maxbinder: can you repair row 8? [22:08:34] ahem sorry that was my fault [22:08:41] errant ctrl+v [22:09:00] meeple27: repair? [22:09:15] maxbinder: awjr just fixed it [22:09:39] it's interesting that 8 and 9 do seem related, since they sprung up from entirely unrelated events [22:09:42] meeple27: it does seem the same as the one you proposed [22:17:26] I think related, rather than the same, but we could fold them [22:27:01] hahaha i've been wondering why i stopped receiving wiki notifications in my email (which ive been missing for literally months) and i just realized it's because at some point i must've marked one as spam and they've all been going to my spam folder [22:28:13] awjr: I'm feeling a little dizzy from blowing my nose so much. Rain check? [22:28:37] maxbinder: no problem [22:28:42] i hope you feel better [22:28:47] thx
