The DeveloperWorks site seems to consist of a number of "communities" (groups). Each community has several of what I will call "features" (overview, recent updates, etc.). |
00:26
π
|
OrIdow6 |
Some "features" are what are clled "apps". I assume that the underlying reason some are apps and some are not is that apps were written/maintained by different groups of people, but how this manifests itself to the user is that all apps (except for the "Activities" app, which is completely restricted to registered users, as far as I can tell) have a life of their own, and can have items in them not attached to a c |
00:26
π
|
OrIdow6 |
as the rest of the "features" must be tied to a community. |
00:29
π
|
OrIdow6 |
Archiving it looks like like it would be fairly complicated - if you are in a community, some apps are accessed purely by AJAX, to the point that you nominally stay on some other URL, nearly everything has several GET parameters, & a lot of other caveats |

youtube accounts (55) |

if no one else wants to do this, I can probably do it at some point, but I really want to focus on Yahoo Groups for the next two days |

Want to make an Elections page? https://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Elections |
01:15
π
|
betamax |
I'm bogged down with Yahoo Groups right now, so would only be able to do such things on Sunday |
01:16
π
|
betamax |
but it would be great if you could make a start |
01:16
π
|
Ryz |
...Ugh, creating ArchiveBot pages of it was rough~ <#>; |
01:16
π
|
betamax |
scraping all the twitters, facebooks and websites in particular will take an age, so getting started early would be a benifit |
01:17
π
|
jodizzle |
betamax: You could just dump all the links in a page like this, unformatted, and we can start sorting through them: https://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Elections/2020_United_States_presidential_election |
01:17
π
|
jodizzle |
With that many social media accounts, it might be better to do them in one big snscrape file than try to feed them through socialbot one at a time |
01:18
π
|
Ryz |
jodizzle, keep in mind this is the UK, United Kingdom~ |
01:18
π
|
jodizzle |
Right |
01:19
π
|
jodizzle |
I meant just a page like that, under 'Elections/' |
01:19
π
|
jodizzle |
You'd have to make a new one |
01:19
π
|
jodizzle |
Basically just somewhere to put the list |
01:20
π
|
Ryz |
betamax, do you have the list for me or others to process? |
01:22
π
|
betamax |
yup, gimmie a set |

|
betamax |
that's a zip file with a text file for the twitters, a text file for the facebooks, etc.... |
01:25
π
|
betamax |
(sorry for using sucj a terrible file storage site, by the way!) |
01:25
π
|
Ryz |
Gonna probably go for Instagram pages first~ |
01:25
π
|
jodizzle |
Ryz: I'm going to dump these on an 'Election/' page, so that we can have a public point of reference |
01:26
π
|
Ryz |
From there, I will label the jobs with "UK 2019 General Election" |
01:27
π
|
betamax |
huge thanks for doing this |
01:27
π
|
jodizzle |
I could also run snscrape on e.g., the twitters in parallel on one of my machines to make it go faster. Though maybe using socialbot is still better, since it pings chromebot |
01:28

|
jodizzle |
Not sure |

we're not sure. Before they extended the deadline, GMD requests needed to be made bt 11.59PM PST |

seems logical that this would also be the wesbite shutdown... |

(Also, fuck people who use "PT" instead of PDT or PST.) |

nobody knows how to use PST vs PDT here, so you're screwed no matter |

I have no idea what they even stand for, thanks for UTC-ifying it for ease of use |

Winter = PST, summer = PDT. This isn't hard. |

people will say PST when PDT is in effect out of habit |

If I care, I give a UTC offset. |
23:47
π
|
SootBectr |
How about how UTC stands for Coordinated Universal Time? |
23:48
π
|
JAA |
Β―\_(γ)_/Β― At least UTC is unambiguous. |
23:48
π
|
JAA |
What the abbreviation means exactly doesn't even matter. |
23:49

With "PT", it's always a guessing game in spring and autumn whether the US already switched to/from DST because *of course* the switch is not on the same date everywhere. |
23:49
π
|
JAA |
Anyway, </rant> |
23:50

|
Myself |
In most other languages, the noun comes first, so it'd be TCU or TUC. In English, we put the noun at the end, so CUT. They deliberately chose UTC as to be neutral and favor neither. |
23:50
π
|
JAA |
Correct, and more precisely, it's a compromise between English and French. |
23:51
π
|
SootBectr |
Yep |

PT isn't really ambiguous either, it's just not fixed to UTC, but it is fixed with regard to other US zones so it's just as convenient for people there |
23:51
π
|
SootBectr |
I don't care, was just asking if it bugged Myself too :) |
23:52
π
|
JAA |
klg_: That's exactly my point, it's convenient only for people inside the US, but it's used in contexts relevant to people outside of the US. |
23:52
π
|
JAA |
And yes, "PT" can be ambiguous during one hour in autumn. |

afaik, Swatch is no longer making beat time watches |
23:54
π

SootBectr |
That just makes the time more valuable |
23:54
π
|
Myself |
If Swatch had based it in UTC instead of Switzerland time (UTC+1), I'd still be championing it. |
23:55
π
|
markedL |
half the point was it was arbitrary, that everyone should just deal with it |
23:56
π
|
JAA |
klg_: You mean, when? On the switch from DST to standard time, the hour between 02:00 and 03:00 local time occurs twice. So "2019-10-27 02:30 PT" is ambiguous. |
23:56
π
|
klg_ |
oh that, okay |
23:56
π
|
JAA |
And that shit is why nobody in their right mind would ever use a local TZ for storing dates. |
23:57
π
|
Myself |
UTC has leapseconds too. TAI is the only sensible thing. |
23:57
π
|
klg_ |
except when they need to schedule events in their local time zone which might unpredictably change before that event happens |
23:57
π
|
JAA |
Leap seconds are still unambiguous, just a bit annoying to handle since your seconds counter can become 60. |
23:58
π
|
JAA |
That's why you regularly update your time zone data. |
