09:51 Rogan I'm dubious that many of the caption services are still using humans to do it live
09:51 berick sounds like something a human would say
09:52 redavis Or an AI agent prompted to sound human.
09:55 Dyrcona "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."
09:57 redavis lol, oh...sentient AI. So just vaguely less gooey people.
09:57 berick *Dave removes one semicolon*
09:58 * Dyrcona replaces a semicolon with a Greek question mark and leaves it for the maintenance programmer to pull their hair out. AI would probably catch it in  less than a heartbeat.
10:04 berick huh, how am i just learning about the Greek question mark
10:05 csharp_ don't you mean "how am I just learning about the Greek question mark;"
10:05 Stompro Does anyone know more about the NYT books API deprecation?  I'm trying to find a source for the info.
10:06 csharp_ Stompro: this? (I'm unfamiliar): https://developer.nytimes.com/​docs/books-product/1/overview
10:06 Dyrcona There's also "full width semicolon" and "small semicolon" for added fun. Mix 'em up for syntax errors galore.
10:06 redavis "learning is lifelong, asynchronous, and situationally dependent," she said pedantically (after spellchecking pedantically in Google)
10:06 berick csharp_: i see what you did there
10:06 csharp_ berick: you did;
10:06 berick :)
10:06 csharp_ lightning talk: "Punctuation Matters;"
10:07 berick stop it, you're killing me
10:07 csharp_ here all week - tip your servers
10:07 Stompro csharp_, yes that is it.  Gives access to NYT bestseller lists.  But I heard it was going away, but cannot find a press release or anything.
10:08 Dyrcona Stompro: I also heard that maybe it's not going away, but I don't have a reliable source...
10:08 csharp_ Reddit is a good source for that kind of rumory stuff in my experience
10:08 Stompro Thanks, I'll search reddit.
10:10 Dyrcona csharp_: Did you cheat;
10:14 Dyrcona @band add Greek and the Question Marks
10:14 pinesol Dyrcona: Band 'Greek and the Question Marks' added to list
10:18 csharp_ @decide ; or ;
10:18 pinesol csharp_: go with ;
10:19 Dyrcona There's a subtle difference in the font my IRC client uses.
10:19 Dyrcona There was a marked difference in the font my text editor uses.
10:19 csharp_ mine shows no difference
10:20 csharp_ (Fedora 42 default terminal font)
10:20 csharp_ Shift-U 037e
10:21 csharp_ sorry, ctrl-shift, not shift
10:22 Dyrcona Yeah.
10:22 Dyrcona ;
10:22 Dyrcona Same in Gnome.
10:22 berick csharp_: hate to bother, but what's up with the evergreen-dev archives?  is accessing archives still a know issue?
10:22 csharp_ I do it for the TM symbol™
10:22 berick trying https://list.evergreen-ils.​org/pipermail/open-ils-dev/
10:23 Dyrcona I'm trying to find out what font my IRC client is using, but it is not making it easy to find out.
10:23 csharp_ oh - we just need to set up a vhost for it
10:23 csharp_ or something
10:23 csharp_ apache doesn't know how to serve it up in any case
10:23 Dyrcona There's a different URL that works now, isn't there?
10:23 Dyrcona Maybe I'm mistaken again as usual.
10:24 csharp_ the pre-mailman3 archives have to be manually made available
10:24 csharp_ it was a follow-up I forgot about
10:25 Dyrcona OK. berick++ csharp_++
10:25 Bmagic berick++ csharp_++ Dyrcona++ # OMG the Greek Question mark
10:30 csharp_ it may be a symlink issue
10:31 csharp_ Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible:
10:31 csharp_ that's the error I'm investigating
10:31 berick csharp_++
10:33 Bmagic @band search Disgus
10:33 pinesol Bmagic: Disgusto Barfo
10:33 berick haha
10:34 Bmagic Had to bring that back, I'm looking over the database of band names. We've done a very good job at curating a list.
10:34 Bmagic @band search Feedbag
10:34 pinesol Bmagic: Feedbag Fest
10:36 jihpringle joined #evergreen
10:36 berick that's me every day at lunch
10:36 Bmagic lol
10:37 Bmagic lol here's another one that got me chuckling
10:37 Bmagic @band search Biblio
10:37 pinesol Bmagic: Biblio Baggins
10:37 redavis If you expressed interest in the RUST working group, please fill out this poll - https://doodle.com/group-poll/participate/aK9BJqzd
10:38 Dyrcona That comes from my fingers always wanting to type bilbio.record_entry.
10:38 Dyrcona @band add Bilbo Record Entry
10:38 pinesol Dyrcona: Band 'Bilbo Record Entry' added to list
10:39 Bmagic The way I got pinesol to reveal the whole database was in a private message with it. I searched for "a" but that's probably not going to show me all* of the band names. Anyone have a better method?
10:41 Dyrcona @help band
10:41 pinesol Dyrcona: (band [add|remove|search {BAND}]) -- KA-RAAAAY-ZEE band names! Get one, add one, remove one, search!
10:44 Dyrcona Modern Problems: Having to consult 4 calendars to figure out if you can attend a meeting at a certain time.
10:44 berick Dyrcona: preach
10:45 Dyrcona One of these calendars hangs on the back of a bathroom door at that. The others are online.
10:45 Bmagic lol
10:48 Dyrcona And then you can't find the stylus for your phone...

11:00 csharp_ I'm stuck for now - going to leave it alone - if someone else with access wants to try, feel free (list archives issue)
11:22 Dyrcona csharp_ | berick: Think I fixed the mailman archives. It was a permissions issue on the filesystem.
11:26 csharp_ Dyrcona++
11:26 csharp_ Dyrcona: mailman not the right owner?
11:28 Dyrcona csharp_: No. Everyone needed rx perms on the private directory. Which makes it not private, but there you go.
11:37 berick Dyrcona: appears to stop at 2020?  https://list.evergreen-ils.​org/pipermail/open-ils-dev/
11:42 Dyrcona It can't show you what's not there.
11:43 Dyrcona Sep 10  2020 index.html
11:44 Dyrcona csharp_: https://list.evergreen-ils.o​rg/pipermail/evergreen-dev/
11:45 Dyrcona That ends in February.
11:46 Dyrcona Guess we renamed the list in 2020.
11:58 csharp_ sounds right

14:41 Dyrcona Spreadsheet of spreadsheets.
15:16 Bmagic captions got his name "Troughton"
15:16 csharp_ new developer!
16:34 jeff @band add Hakuna Metadata
