schestowitz> adding the feed to the TM news feed, I will say this: the large majorityAug 14 01:34

schestowitz> I am extremely passionate about data storage, virtualization andAug 14 01:34

schestowitzWish we could make signup easier, but it's a nightmare to manage (spam all day long)Aug 14 01:48

schestowitz> uploads folders: for the uploads folders, youre going to do that manually, which makes perfect sense.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> articles: for the articles, we have some tools and a list of urls. we have no backup yet.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> the tool i made for articles strips html and produces something less useful for you doing a full backup.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> i could modify it to become a tool that produces urls for all articles.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> the question is what do you want to do with that tool:Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> 1. have me send you updated url lists, so you can download all of them and put in a zip file? this means you dont have to use the tool, i can send you url lists for each year, so you upload those per year if you want.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> the tool i made already was designed to be used once, this one would be more future-proof. plus i can send you the urls.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> 2. do you want to strip the headers and footers? this requires a smarter program to process the data once you have it. without html, every article on techrights adds up to about a cd worth of data. with html, it should be over 1gb at least. either way i cant send it to you. thats why i recommend urls. but if you want to strip headers and footers-- relevant links etc thats a program you have to run after getting the urls.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> i recommend getting the urls for each article, creating an updated program for it, then sending you the urls from that article.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> but youre looking at a lot of urls-- 5 hours of downloading, 1gb (more) of total bandwidth.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> if you do databases you might use a command line tool to extract on the articles from the database. its much faster and will produce a single file without security-compromising data.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> i can look into such a command line tool if you mirror the database.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> if you code in php (i havent in years) i bet you can extract the articles in that, then run it from the command line on the server and bobs your uncle, youve got a file including all the articles.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:54
schestowitz> so these are options, when you have time let me know which one you like best for getting the articles archived.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitzAll the above would help us move towards open data and would be worth publishing along with description of what they are.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitzYes, we have a list of URLs/blog posts, maybe making an XML file with those would be handy too.Aug 14 01:54
schestowitzAt the end we want to make better interfacing with the data in the site, without exposing the whole raw database obviously (lots of stuff there like usernames).Aug 14 01:54
schestowitzRe: the techrights effect (very positive)Aug 14 01:55
schestowitz> i dont have referral or geoip info for people who view my fig website.Aug 14 01:55

schestowitz> Aug 14 01:55
schestowitz> when i update the website i get between 100 and 200 new views-- moreAug 14 01:55
schestowitz> like 100. i look forward to those.Aug 14 01:55

schestowitz> i havent updated in 2 weeks-- sometimes i only update once or twice aAug 14 01:55

schestowitz> not to think this is because of the techrights articles-- cheers.Aug 14 01:55
schestowitz> Aug 14 01:55
schestowitz> (and thats despite the fact that the articles dont link directly to myAug 14 01:55

schestowitzHow does “rigorous debate” imply “flame wars and ridiculing code”? Why shouldn't we be able to have the former without the latter? In fact the two seem almost antithetical to me.Aug 14 06:17
schestowitzOf course people should be encouraged to defend their ideas, but that should work just as well or even better in a focused atmosphere of mutual respect than a disorganised flame-fest.Aug 14 06:17

schestowitzIn the video he is rationalizing what has been going on on LKML.Aug 14 06:17

schestowitzThose bosses overlook or hide any problems with those star employees in order not to disturb the phenomenal success.Aug 14 06:17
schestowitzThe Linux kernel is extremely popular because it ended up being used in so many places. Aug 14 06:17
schestowitzCompanies have to put employees to work on the Linux kernel and there is a steady stream of new developers even if many of them are turned off by the toxic environment. Currently, the Linux kernel development affords to lose developers and does lose them.Aug 14 06:17
