[23:48:40] <chromas> FatPhil brings up a good point. We should have an AMP version of the site for April
[23:37:16] <Bytram> too sleepy to sort things out atm. time for a nap, I think.
[23:34:00] <systemd> ^ 03US Astronaut Christina Koch Returns to Earth after Longest Mission by Woman - SoylentNews
[23:33:59] <Bytram> main story: https://soylentnews.org
[23:32:31] <Bytram> hrrrrrrrm
[23:23:55] <FatPhil> The &amp; seems like it shouldn't be there.
[23:23:26] <systemd> ^ 03US Astronaut Christina Koch Returns to Earth after Longest Mission by Woman - SoylentNews ( https://soylentnews.org )
[23:23:24] <FatPhil> I'm perturbed that after posting a post, I'm redirected to https://soylentnews.org
[22:28:28] <Bytram> laters
[22:28:23] <Bytram> Completed. Contents of modreason table on dev are back to what they were.
[22:18:54] <Bytram> On it... I'll let ya know when it's done.
[22:18:39] <Bytram> gnawed gnawed!
[22:04:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> if ya wanna learn the ropes of that, ask me when i ain't just moved several tons of junk with stairs being involved
[22:04:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> pull em if ya would
[21:59:43] * Bytram kinda guessed as much, but was *hoping* that it might just fall into place... everything else I'd seen suggested it *might* work. Oh well! You want me to pull my changes from the DB or just leave 'em?
[21:44:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, it ain't that simple. there's code changes necessary too.
[18:29:25] * Bytram realized that bouncing the front ends won't help; slash needs to be restarted so that it loads the new values from disk into memory; that's beyond my experience, so I'll leave things like they are for now.
[18:28:09] <Bytram> INSERT IGNORE INTO modreasons (id, name, m2able, listable, val, karma, fairfrac, ordered, needs_prior_mod) VALUES (110, '===========', 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.5, 110, 0);
[18:28:07] <Bytram> Hrrm, noticed the values from the source code I used did not match what was on dev for the "-----" separator; updated to make them equivalent:
[18:07:20] <Bytram> It was my expectation that it would add an additional separator at the bottom of the moderation reason choices, and so disallow a random downscroll from accidentally selecting a "Spam" moderation.
[18:06:13] <Bytram> INSERT IGNORE INTO modreasons (id, name, m2able, listable, val, karma, fairfrac, ordered, needs_prior_mod) VALUES (110, '===========', 0, 1, 1, 1, 0.5, 110, 0);
[18:06:12] <Bytram> On dev, in the soylentdev db, I issued this command to add an entry to the modreasons table and then bounced the front ends, but nothing seems to have changed when I added a comment and then tried to moderate it?
[17:47:54] <FatPhil> well, it's time to dissolve myself in sauna and beer for a few hours, but first a shave, I was beginning to look my age...
[17:46:12] <Bytram> There *is* a topics editor, but it has so many whells and bistles that it is intuitively casual to the most obvious observer how to use it.
[17:45:25] <Bytram> bah.
[17:41:27] <Bytram> biab!
[17:41:23] <Bytram> niab
[17:41:20] <Bytram> Should only take a couple more minutes now.
[17:41:04] <Bytram> Nah, I had one idea, but something was nagging at me that there had to be an easier way... and I found it.
[17:38:51] <FatPhil> sure, we can just have a bit of a brainstorm, there's not a huge rush
[17:38:31] <Bytram> I have an idea that I'm pretty sure will work, just have a couple more details to gather
[17:33:01] <Bytram> I have an idea... hold on a few minutes
[17:32:49] <Bytram> FatPhil: I expect that it should work, and also concur that it is ugly.
[17:32:43] <FatPhil> I need beer.
[17:32:38] <FatPhil> or something
[17:32:32] <FatPhil> An alternative might be to use that space for some words instead "^ don't use this^"
[17:31:55] <FatPhil> it's ugly, but people rarely look beyond the one they're interested in.
[17:30:58] <FatPhil> Buzz - what do you think about the dummy '---------' idea in my most recent mail to the hudcracker?

[17:30:35] <Bytram> =g ragu
[17:30:23] <FatPhil> let's just have a peek at the sauce!
[17:30:01] <Bytram> I hope that this ^^^ helps in locating/isolating the problem!
[17:29:37] <Bytram> gets removed. I have seen this before, and only recently had enough examples to figure out what was going on.

[17:25:50] <Bytram> janrinok: Sorry, but I have seen this happen before... as best as I can tell, when there are multiple anchor elements in a block element (<p> .... </p>) and *each* of the anchor elements contain attributes above and beyond the expected href="..." then thins get truncated between the anchors
[17:23:09] <chromas> the uh, the bot that generated the sub
[17:22:32] <FatPhil> I understand boxers, y-fronts, etc., but what the heck is a knacker bracket?
[17:20:31] <chromas> soon it will shift from knackerbracket to knackerbrace
[17:19:48] <chromas> it's learning
[17:18:51] <FatPhil> ah, OK
[17:18:24] <janrinok> locally yes - not one that you can access
[17:18:12] <FatPhil> is there a git repo?
[17:17:59] <janrinok> chromas, OK, I've read that and I will look at why it has suddenly started doing this - I haven't made any changes to the code in that area since October.
[17:12:07] <chromas> Oh yeah, thanks for the bug report and stuff
[17:04:58] <chromas> New flamewar topic: regex vs regexp
[17:04:02] <chromas> from the ping janrinok dept.
[17:04:00] <FatPhil> it's probably doing a maximal match rather than a minimal one
[17:03:45] <FatPhil> Probably a missing ``?'' in a regexp
[17:03:40] <chromas> Yep; probably a bug on the /tags/ detection bit
[17:01:52] <FatPhil> Or in simple terms - the scraped text is so mangled it doesn't even parse as English any more.
