diana_coman: in advantages of publishing the logs like any other text on blog... backlinks ; might even make for more motivation to finally get to the bottom of missing trackbacks otherwise. [11:58]

billymg: !!ratings [17:43]
deedbot: http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=co2w [17:43]
billymg: ^ finally got around to that bit of housekeeping [17:44]
billymg: thank you to everyone who responded to my mp-wp survey, it cleared up a lot in my head about the desired direction for the project [17:55]
billymg: i'll publish my interpretation of the results soon, but even reading the raw responses i think should be interesting to anyone who uses mp-wp [17:57]
diana_coman: billymg: fwiw, after doing all the scripts to import logs and to get real-time logging into mpwp and all that, I realised that in the process I pretty much got also ~all I'd need to not even look at the web-based interface anymore [18:12]
diana_coman: sure, there'd be a bit more work to make stuff like comment moderation more convenient but otherwise it kind of boggles the mind why exactly did I put up with the web-based login for so long. [18:14]
diana_coman: (well: because I never took the time to really look at it; in turn, because there were bigger fires & more annoying things to sort out etc; as it always goes) [18:15]
billymg: diana_coman: yeah, one of the big takeaways for me is that JS can be removed entirely sooner than i had previously thought (the "libraries" of which are a big portion of the overall weight of the codebase) [18:17]
diana_coman: ah, that for sure. [18:18]
diana_coman: billymg: I'm curious though what you make of it given that from what I saw, the answers from non-mpwp users were ~all mainly "shall never use it on ideological grounds" [18:22]
diana_coman: maybe I should say even religious grounds by now, lol. [18:26]
billymg: diana_coman: my read from the non-mpwp users was not quite as pessimistic. two of the three responses seemed to indicate that if the codebase was trimmed enough and a CLI introduced they would not be opposed to running it [18:27]
diana_coman: I think you are very optimistic but I'll be very happy to be proved wrong in this as well as above. [18:28]
diana_coman: shall be back later at the usual 7pm utc [18:29]
billymg: diana_coman: haha, it's the optimism that motivates. it also doesn't hurt that despite perhaps being in different ideological camps, both users and non-users alike have similar goals -- e.g. 1) run something with as small a footprint as possible that 2) doesn't require too much hassle and 3) allows for cli/script interaction to fit more efficiently into their preferred workflow [18:35]
billymg: diana_coman: i think you might be right about users already invested in another solution though. even if mp-wp becomes palatable to them there are switching costs. but getting to the point where, hypothetically, if they were starting fresh again mp-wp would be their first choice, would still be a win [18:43]
billymg: bbl, breakfast is ready [18:44]
lobbes: diana_comam: I have a massive log and blog debt to catch up on. Seems work on mpwp keeps moving forward and I'm still interested in lending a hand with any irc-to-blog work. The mp-wp-bot I was working on does indeed to real-time logging to mp-wp. I'll be spending today and early next week on getting back up to speed on things. [20:50]
lobbes: speaking of, auctionbot is MIA I see; I will fix [20:50]
diana_coman: oh hey, wb lobbes [20:58]
diana_coman: !!up #ossasepia LizTurner [20:58]
deedbot: LizTurner voiced for 30 minutes. [20:58]
diana_coman: LizTurner: hello [20:58]
diana_coman: lobbes: what happened to you this almost full April, anyway? [20:59]
diana_coman: http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/26/ossasepia-logs-for-26-apr-2020/#1025280 - this would be about the most generous interpretation indeed; to me there's a stark contrast between those answers and e.g. http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/22/ossasepia-logs-for-09-Apr-2020/#1024027 [21:03]

sonofawitch: 2020-04-09 16:14:08 (#ossasepia) diana_coman: ie make the trunk of mpwp so that I'm 2x more productive using it than whatever entrenched habits I might have, and I'll change the darned habits already [21:03]
diana_coman: anyways, to my mind the benefit would be in reaching out to new people rather than trying to convince anyone who has already made their mind to not use it. [21:05]
diana_coman: huh, those join-and-leave, not even spewing out some spam, boggles the mind [21:07]
diana_coman: it's like children's games - ring at the door and run away sort of thing? [21:07]
diana_coman: cruciform: how's the Knuth & logs diet going for you? [21:10]
sonofawitch: 2020-04-22 16:58:06 (#ossasepia) cruciform: I've had enough Knuth for a bit, so gonna work on reading the logs; writing an article on "What is YH?" [21:10]
cruciform: !!up #ossasepia cruciform [21:21]
deedbot: You may not !!up yourself. [21:21]
diana_coman: trinque: ^ what's wrong there ? [21:22]
diana_coman: hm, I thought voice params were changed already. [21:23]
sonofawitch: 2020-04-18 18:15:44 (#ossasepia) trinque: diana_coman: sitting down to another round of deedbot tweaking now, will make sure the voice params are also changed. [21:23]
cruciform: diana_coman, I went from not-doing-a-lot-inside to not-doing-a-lot outside for the last few days; I'll have a post up by tomorrow eve http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/26/ossasepia-logs-for-26-apr-2020#1025296 [21:23]

cruciform: speaking of, enjoyed http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/26/a-day-in-april/ [21:25]
