[00:00:03] it might be worth hiding that Hide email preference and disable that mailman feature [00:00:47] well, in the old days it used to be quite complex, and prone to breaking archives :P [00:00:55] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailman#Remove_a_message_from_the_mailing_list_archives [00:00:56] just one or two buttons to click [00:24:31] smtp over whatsapp > sure would be nice for all the messaging apps (signal, whatsapp, google, ios, etc) to interop seamlessly [00:28:25] too bad there are no open standards that would facilitate such a thing [00:39:26] something like an Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol [00:57:41] Jabber was meant to be that [00:58:22] remember using Jabber with the Psi client? looked liked ICQ but free and open [00:58:35] and many clients [00:59:03] even had group chat and supported GPG keys for users [01:01:23] mmm… Jabber… I remember using the twitter jabber gateway… *days of the lives themesong starts to play* [01:07:44] mutante: XMPP (formerly known as jabber) is exactly that [01:08:21] in fact, WhatsApp actually uses XMPP (kind-of) [01:08:39] I think it used a compressed version of XMPP [01:08:46] not sure what signal does [01:12:33] signal uses its own protocol [01:12:58] WhatsApp uses an implementation of it as well, at least for they crypto [01:13:11] would make sense if it was based on XMPP though [01:22:52] yes, Jabber was like the original name of XMPP, ack [01:23:51] Google Wave tried to be half email and half chat [01:24:25] have a good weekend all, bye [01:32:15] WhatsApp crypto is based on Signal's double ratchet as well [05:46:57] I'm doing the developer survey. Its interesting, for the rank priorities for personal dev environment, none of those seem all that important [05:55:56] "Balancing code review with my other Wikimedia developer tasks is:" <-- not even sure what that means [06:04:10] all the other stuff you do as a developer? triaging + testing bugs, maintaining tools/bots/services, writing code yourself, ... [06:05:35] idk, It doesn't really feel like something you balance [06:05:52] Its more like waiting for rain so you can get a harvest [06:07:12] is it free response or are there options? [06:07:43] umm, im on a few pages later, but i think it was "strongly agree", "agree", etc [06:08:42] There's a free response form later on for your overall opinions on CR [06:13:14] "Have you used the deployment train" [06:13:32] Well, technically i've written code that was deployed by the train. I guess that is using it. [06:29:08] * bawolff completes survey [06:29:14] I will be really interested in the results [22:51:34] Hi
