Antonin Delpeuch<p>Celebration! The <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/wmhack25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wmhack25</span></a> was the occasion to onboard User:Arcstur as a maintainer of <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/EditGroups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EditGroups</span></a>! I'm super grateful for him for already helping out with a big cleanup of the deployment process :) </p><p><a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wikidata</span></a> <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/toolforge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>toolforge</span></a> <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/wikitech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wikitech</span></a></p>

Looks like creating a new Wikitech account and rigourously following the tutorial doesn't let us SSH to Gerrit. Could it be related to the recent downtime? Join us on the couch in front of the registration desk! :-) <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tuto</span><span class="invisible">rial</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/wikitech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wikitech</span></a> <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/ssh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ssh</span></a> <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/git" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>git</span></a></p>
Ash_Crow<p>I received an email from <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Wikimedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wikimedia</span></a> Developer Experience asking me to link my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Wikitech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wikitech</span></a> account to my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mediawiki" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mediawiki</span></a> account.</p><p>1. I thought that it was done years ago (at least for Phabricator)<br>2. I'm supposed to do that... on a non-existent website (<a href="https://idm.wikipedia.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">idm.wikipedia.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> issues a "Could not resolve host")<br>3. It refers to a FAQ that is... an empty draft <a href="https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Migrating_Wikitech_Account_to_SUL" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ne</span><span class="invisible">ws/Migrating_Wikitech_Account_to_SUL</span></a></p><p>What is going on?</p>
Antonin Delpeuch<p>What are the plans around <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/redis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>redis</span></a> usage in the <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/wikitech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wikitech</span></a> <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/toolforge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>toolforge</span></a>, especially after the license change? Will we switch to a fork? Also, does it actually make sense to have a redis instance shared between many tools, when redis provides (AFAICT) no user isolation at all, meaning that the tools can overwrite each other's data (on top of potentially competing for resources like connections or memory)? The docs encourage prefixing keys, but it can't be enforced, right? <a href="https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Redis_for_Toolforge" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/He</span><span class="invisible">lp:Toolforge/Redis_for_Toolforge</span></a></p>
