05:06.11pompyoh ok
05:39.00Torhaloscarucb: WHich project, and did it eventually work?
05:42.40oscarucbThe second time I mentioned it was saved_instances - the packager appeared to be idle but it took over 5 min for the commit to show on Repo and be packaged
05:43.38oscarucbThe first was Postal r396 whcih I committed two days ago and still has not packaged
05:45.22Torhaloscarucb: Ok. I'm not going to queue Postal - since Zeldo has commandeered permission to alter the site's code, I'm leaving it as-is so he can triage.
05:46.03oscarucbyea no rush, it was a very minor change anyhow
05:46.45TorhalI'd love for this to be done and over with, or I'd queue it for a zip now. Don't want to sabotage the investigation, though.
05:51.38Fiskerrawr
05:57.03oscarucbTorhal: I totally agree. The packager instability is the currently the biggest curseforge nuisance imo, would be great to have that fixed for good.
05:57.54TorhalBiggest CurseForge nuisance is the biggest WowAce downfall, IMO.
05:58.52oscarucbZeldo the Magical fixed all my other big wowace complaints, so I have faith in his efforts :)
05:59.59TorhalIt isn't so much that he's magical as that he snuck shit in while doing security updates. Ballsy? Most definitely. Magical? No.
06:00.01Torhal:D
06:00.13TorhalHe's a hell of a guy, though.
06:02.29oscarucbWell, several of the major nuisances he fixed are 5+ years old, which I think predates the "new site". So he's still a magical hero in my book.
06:04.22TorhalIt's stuff that I absolutely would have done as soon as it happened except for blowback from the person who is (was) maintaining the site. Then as soon as it went into "maintenance mode" and we were concentrating solely on the new stack, doing so was beyond a no-go.
06:05.10TorhalThat's why I say he commandeered - I was told without question that I was not to do it.
06:05.17Torhal:/
06:05.28TorhalI'm glad he did; don't get me wrong.
06:05.30FiskerI once killed a guy
06:05.33TorhalThis shit needed to be fixed.

06:06.25Torhalabuse@curse.com - Do it!
06:06.52TorhalTo be totally honest, I have no clue if that's a valid e-mail address.
06:08.14oscarucbSo is the "new site" project dead then? Or are they planning to break our dev platform while we work on Legion addons?
06:09.12TorhalThe new site took a backseat to the new Curse App (formerly Curse Client) in December. I left the team in September, so I can't actually comment on what their timeline is.
06:12.37oscarucbSpeaking as an average dev, I hope they leave it alone - I'd take functional and ugly over broken with eye candy any day, especially for a dev platform
06:12.58Torhaloscarucb: Just to be clear, he didn't know about most of the major nuisances until I said "While you're in there..."
06:13.23TorhalThe "Reverse relationships" was a big one. April 2011, IIRC.
06:16.15oscarucbThe ticket system problem was a design flaw in the orignal site, complaints going back to 2008
06:16.23TorhalOh, definitely.
06:16.45TorhalBut there are still aplethora of issues with the original site.
06:17.13TorhalMost of which simply cannot be fixed in a simple "Let's investigate what's going on" manner.
06:17.58TorhalHe'll fix things that are obviously broken, and which mostly used to work. Beyond that, though... doubtful.
06:18.04oscarucbIMO the dev resources spent on making a "prettier" site would have been better spent on feature upgrades to the working one, but thats just my 2c
06:18.48TorhalThe existing platform is just shit. The new site is much more robust under the hood. It isn't just about "prettier" overall.
06:19.34TorhalThere's also the notion that the old site is Python, of which we have exactly one developer fluent in, and the new site has a shared codebase with most of our current sites and over 30 fluent devs.
06:20.37oscarucbI'm just talking from the perspective of an end user addon dev, not a site admin or site dev
06:20.38TorhalThere's also the problem that we have small dev teams.
06:20.59TorhalAnd the CF team was pulled to the App for the past three months.
06:21.14TorhalErr... five.
06:21.51TorhalAnd when I said "30 devs" I was forgetting the company split in September.
06:22.59TorhalWe now have a Media Division (which deals with community sites, such as MMO-Champion, Diablofans, etc) amd teh Web Team, which deals with the App and things like Curse.com and Curseforge.
06:23.07TorhalCurseForge*
06:24.06TorhalSo with that split there is a period of alignment.
06:24.50TorhalNot making excuses; it is what it is. People who have no prior experience are now working on projects that are outside of their wheelhouse.
06:26.11TorhalThe end-goal of the split was the ability to focus, though, so as soon as the App is where it needs to be, the CurseForge dev team will be solely concentrated on that project.
06:26.27TorhalThis means a much faster turnaround on feature requests and polish.
06:26.33oscarucbLong as they don't break our site during the Legion scramble, I'm happy.
06:26.51TorhalI'll kill them all if they break it, oscarucb.

06:27.29TorhalProbably not, but I'll definitely yell.

07:20.39nevcairielI find it odd that web devs get pulled to app duty, but shrug

08:56.37Semlarno i use protection
08:57.21TorhalSorry, laddie; there was a bit of a rip.
08:57.44Semlaram i pregnant now
08:58.55TorhalI'm afraid it's much worse than that; you're now fully opinionated with the capacity to talk out of your ass.
09:00.31TorhalI'm sorry; I forgot to mention that the capacity was bundled with a predilection.
09:01.25Semlartorhal why is assembly so confusing
09:01.46TorhalI've also secured the funds to ensure that quiescens will direct all of your speech for the forseeable future.
09:01.51Semlaractually why isn't there something that can convert assembly to a higher level language
09:02.00quiescenso.o
09:02.03Semlarshouldn't that be fairly stragithforward
09:02.11Semlarstraightforward
09:02.21TorhalYou're an unreasonable being, Semlar. You should probably stop that.
09:02.32SemlarI DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THIS
09:02.37TorhalAlso, water your floorboard biome,
09:02.38quiescensgo to sleep

09:02.45Semlarwow maybe i should go to sleep
09:02.56Semlari'm slurring my keys
09:03.09Semlarbut i just got up
09:04.25TorhalI know it's a bit early, but I think that perhaps quiescens should give you a Darwin Award, Semlar.
09:04.33TorhalBecause irony.

22:43.08harlchenwhen i move the Interface/settings frame, there is what seems like an underlying frame/mover that moves on a different scale from the actual (visible) frame, but only when i drag it by the title "bar" but not when i drag it by any other part..
22:43.22harlchenis that a bug with the actual frames or is it one of my addons..
22:47.19harlchenjust saw there was an update to BetterBlizzOptions.. and disabling it solves the issue.. not sure if BBO is the actual cause though
22:54.05harlchenyea ok, i probably shouldn't load Blizzmove *and* DragEmAll at the same time
22:59.41harlcheni'm not sure which one is more effective at what it does
23:00.40harlchennor which one's code is more efficient
23:04.14harlchenmy uneducated guess is that Blizzmove (+ MoveAnything) may be the more compatible choice
