[01:50:35] <.labster> I'm crazy enough and unemployed [01:52:59] the miraheze @ wmf cabal must grow,,, [01:53:18] world takeover soon [02:42:29] we're all at least a little bit crazy [02:42:31] right? [02:43:11] who else would willingly use mediawiki other than crazy people [02:43:29] beth is not crazy confirmed [02:43:43] (who is beth) [02:44:08] https://rainverse.wiki/wiki/User:1something [02:44:48] >has an account on a mediawiki wiki [02:45:39] https://transgirl.cafe/notes/a9x4rnzmbq6h00dr [02:46:52] that sounds sick [02:46:57] but also 404 not found [02:47:39] huh [02:47:45] ah right, move [02:48:10] https://pandorastale.average.name/ [02:48:40] impressive [02:49:19] sad that no css tho [02:49:31] i mean, i presume that it'll be improved [02:49:45] hm, i have a tendency to use presume over assume [02:50:01] i presume that it'll get me identified one day- [02:51:01] nah [02:52:39] DPL4 time...? lol https://github.com/Universal-Omega/DynamicPageList3/pull/347 when im finished this will likely end up being a whole new DPL that a V4 is actually possible though lol. Plus very high chance this will break a lot lol. Updating code that hasn't been changed in like over a decade lol. [02:52:58] noooooooooooooooo [02:53:33] oh dear [02:53:35] [1/2] >huge pr [02:53:35] [2/2] >No description provided [02:53:38] i have to warn the foundation [02:53:53] as long as it does what it says... [02:54:13] cant argue with that [02:54:55] <.labster> [1/2] This was a meme Cindy shared when leaving WMF [02:54:55] <.labster> [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1006789349498699827/1393062973345366037/Cindy-leaves-WMF.png?ex=6871ce7e&is=68707cfe&hm=17b75111b6a1289199e062558806cda903aba65dca19f72ae5dcf482fa528654& [02:55:04] LOL [02:55:24] lmao [02:55:33] what is she working for i wonder [02:56:25] <.labster> https://selfiie.com/ -- they're using Semantic Mediawiki as the underlying platform for health data [02:56:37] [1/2] i came off a bit negative initially [02:56:38] [2/2] this is fucking awesome [02:57:00] i cant tell if this is concerning or not [02:57:00] And its only about 1/5th of the way done lol. I did convert to use SelectQueryBuilder but now I need to use ExpressionBuilder and sub-queries (SelectQueryBuilder->newSubquery) which is a much larger part. That means no more of all this raw queries that are horrible lol [02:57:27] <.labster> Incidentally Selfiie is also the reason I'm unemployed as they canceled the contract with WikiTeq and are hiring their own people now. [02:58:10] huh [02:58:30] <.labster, replying to pskyechology> Yes that was my first reaction as well. They did an encrypted content model and an encrypted slot... but MW is really not designed around locking down data so yeah, it's hard. [02:59:36] <.labster, replying to cosmicalpha> I also vote for DPL4 if only to confuse people more [03:00:10] i absolutely agree with trolling users [03:01:35] <.labster> Oh, that's pretty sick on the Query.php file. I had a feeling most of that logic could be replaced with SelectQueryBuilder. [03:05:09] Yeah it had its own query builder which SelectQueryBuilder can basically do it all now. But it was created like a decade before SelectQueryBuilder existed lol [03:06:47] <.labster> I really do like SQB, it's a nice sweet spot between raw SQL and ORMs [03:08:32] peanut butter and asbestos... [03:09:45] huh https://selfiie.com/about.html [03:10:44] but yea, mediawiki + confidential already seems like an [03:10:47] ambitious [03:10:48] idea [03:12:11] [1/2] css [03:12:11] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1006789349498699827/1393067318795571231/image.png?ex=6871d28a&is=6870810a&hm=1aaf7cbd5981fec13ed90fc1a5187323f6a2dd3f2be1a4fb658d7b21819b835a& [03:14:57] maybe we should throw claire at this just in case /j [03:15:40] did she really hate the WMF that bad [03:18:47] <.labster> ccicalese was just ready to move on, I'd say [03:19:21] <.labster> I suspect that I'd have higher tolerance for it due to the years I spent in politics and student politics. [03:23:34] <.labster> WMF is a strange organization which develops a huge software as its main product, but also fundamentally doesn't really care about its software platform. Like, it's just a means to an end of producing an encyclopedia. [03:24:14] <.labster> They're a lot like Mozilla, but thankfully not that far gone because everyone in the community is much noisier. [03:30:50] noisier? [03:32:28] As in [Wikipedia has cancer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_Cancer)? [03:36:36] agreed [03:41:22] <.labster> Meanwhile I'm trying to rewrite WikiForum to use dependency injection and factory pattern, honestly I don't even know why at this point. Maybe just to see if I can make a good piece of software? [03:42:45] how i feel tbh [03:42:54] see poor code quality -> i can fix her [03:43:02] i tend to avoid fixing her though [04:05:54] DPL3s very first pre release version is coming soon. (like in a couple hours probably) ive never done a prerelease but with such query changes I decided to make pre releases for it first lol [04:31:27] https://github.com/Universal-Omega/DynamicPageList3/releases/tag/pre
