13:51 sandbergja wow, launchpad is not acting right today
13:57 adam_reid joined #evergreen
14:33 csharp_ sandbergja: probably the same bots hitting our own EG servers :-(
14:37 sandbergja bots--
14:37 csharp_ possible IRC alternative: https://element.io/en
14:44 Bmagic gmcharlt, I was just thinking that we might as well merge bug 2113979? We're running it in production (without the third commit which adds a URL exception feature). I'm not sure the bug is going to get new discussion at this point? It seems to be proving itself?
14:44 pinesol Launchpad bug 2113979 in Evergreen 3.15 "Put a hurdle in front of basic scraping" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2113979
14:44 Bmagic plus, it's disabled by default
14:50 Bmagic csharp_: Looks like a serious hosting dedication issue
14:50 Bmagic reading over https://github.com/element-hq​/ess-helm/blob/main/README.md
14:53 csharp_ good fodder for an infrastructure team discussion if we can make that happen
14:54 jeff csharp_: matrix does work for some people and some communities. i haven't found a way to use it that feels comfortable/useful yet. the barrier to entry also seems... higher, though that might be my past experience speaking there.
14:54 Bmagic I'm all for getting out of vendor lockin, if we could pull it off, that'd be ideal I think
14:54 csharp_ jeff: I've not used it, just saw LP uses it instead of IRC and got curious
14:58 csharp_ I, like Dyrcona and Bmagic yesterday am getting hung up on presentation slides
14:58 Bmagic speaking of that, I'd like to highlight a portion of the conference email that went out yesterday: scroll down to the section on "Taming Everrgreen" - come to class prepared if you can!
14:59 csharp_ haha - I missed that
15:00 csharp_ imagining us crashing hotel wifi like we used to do at every tech conference in the old days
15:00 Bmagic exactly! Tryin to avoid that if possible
15:02 csharp_ Bmagic: I remember at one of the conferences bshum and I had a station also on the wifi that served as an APT proxy to avoid that kind of thing
15:02 Bmagic A thumb drive crossed my mind too
15:03 csharp_ yeah, I was just imagining attendees fighting over who gets the USB drive next
15:03 csharp_ MOBIUS branded USB drives with Evergreen on them!
15:03 Bmagic yeah, and those are slow. The USB port is another bottleneck. It all just takes time, there's no way around it
15:05 csharp_ troubleshooting your presentation is an awesome distraction from what I actually need to be doing! :-)
15:06 csharp_ but I just though of bringing in an old school WRT router to serve your own wifi and have attendees connect to a local server that serves up docker stuff
15:07 Bmagic that'd be clever
15:07 csharp_ might have done that before too - I don't remember
15:07 Bmagic hotel wifi has gotten better over the years, plus we all have hotspots to help out too
15:07 csharp_ GPLS office network has always been insufficient, but in the really bad old days we did have to set up an in-house APT proxy
15:08 Bmagic throw two USB drives in the middle of the floor and announce, 3...2...1.. Go! Stream it on Youtube
15:08 csharp_ before we moved to ITS I used to do a lot more old school admin stuff

15:34 jeff i miss and do not miss the days where running a tech conference meant that you were also running the network. many late nights running cat5 down from roofs and through kitchens in order to ensure sufficient bandwidth for attendees. :-)
15:34 csharp_ haha
