09:10 Dyrcona So, here's a fun thing: our edi_fetcher.pl appears to be running for 4 hours at a stretch as of yesterday (at least). I have checked an it has been running 8:30 am this morning. I've not looked into the logs, yet, but I suspect a firewall tarpit.
09:13 Dyrcona Looks like this started Monday.

09:34 Dyrcona FYI: If you're thinking of upgrading your laptop to Ubuntu 22.04, don't! WiFi is mostly busted. (I'm not gonna search for the lp bugs or stackoverflow discussions.) Suffice it to say that disabling wifii.powersave doesn't seem to help.
09:35 * Dyrcona is likely to switch to the ARM laptop with Manjaro, at least until a Zoom meeting later today.
09:42 Dyrcona EDI: It's Baker & Taylor, again. We're failing to connect to them. Anyone else having issues?
09:50 berick Dyrcona: yep

10:06 pinesol Dyrcona: Band 'Teergrube' added to list
10:06 Dyrcona Because it sounds cooler in German. :)
10:23 collum Dyrcona: we are having problems with B&T, as well.
10:23 Dyrcona collum++
10:24 Dyrcona We're letting our members know that B&T appears to have an issue. I'm not sure if anyone at our site has a contact with them.
10:26 eby "we advised that over the weekend, a server outage impacted systems and applications across Baker & Taylor. Currently, Title Source 360, EDI, and the phone systems at our offices and service centers remain offline.  We have engaged a technical team that is working around the clock to restore business-critical systems and to determine how this occurred."
10:27 * eby guesses ransomware but 🤷
10:28 eby they expect shipments not to restart for a week
10:31 eby ^ Dyrcona . from one of our consortia who actually got a reply from a rep
10:48 Dyrcona eby++
10:49 Dyrcona One of our members forwarded us the email after we emailed the acq. list.

15:17 Dyrcona It feels sooo wrong to want to comment on a patch for AWK from Brian Kernighan that you think one line should be changed...
15:18 Dyrcona That was apropos nothing else in the channel. I just had to share.
15:20 Dyrcona Especially considering that there's nothing actually wrong with the code.
15:23 Dyrcona I just hate seeing "buf = (int *) realloc(buf, bufsz * sizeof(int));" even when immediately followed by "if (buf == NULL) exit(..);"

16:15 Dyrcona While speaking (indirectly) of GitHub, CWMARS is moving custom code to GitHub. There doesn't seem to be much point in self-hosting GitLab any longer.
16:56 jvwoolf left #evergreen
16:56 * Dyrcona thinks I should switch to asciidoctor from asciidoc locally....
16:58 Dyrcona OK, yes. asciidoctor is more "modern," and it's doing what I want. Catch you all tomorrow!
