So they stole it from Flarum and broke it in the process? HOW?

@Arantor How could they do otherwise?
Timeline scrollbars don't grow on CDNs you know.

@boomzilla neither do avatar farms but that doesn't seem to stop them.

Given the fact he's also the OP and..
Author of Discourse Premium BT and Discourse Feature Voting.
I'll go with the latter.

Yep. It's the disco-version of our very own Windows 10 auto-reboot thread.

Yes, if by "shenanigans" you mean "is fucking broken because you're morons".
And for added "doing it wrong", cpradio, who is a Senior Tester, is running AdBlock. (ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT), which must make doing all that indepth SENIOR testing hard.

Where is involved, always assume morons from the outset. Saves time.

Just a badge, though.

@accalia, you should fix the link on your meta.d profile. It's broken.

Are you sure? It didn't work.
I'm guessing it's because when I type b, e, l, g, i, u, m it comes up like ●●●●●●● rather than ■■■■■■■.

@Zecc You need to cut-n-paste it.

Change summary:
- Upgrade of underlying operating system across major versions (urgent, because Google Chrome was going to break hell out of the page if they didn't do this by May 31 - read as: 6 days after they released the update)
- But they aren't going to force the full Docker upgrade for 14 days, since it's still in testing (in production!)
- Noticeable jumps in Postgres and Ember versions as well
here comes the breakage! (Especially the NB for postgres upgrades, pure impending comedy gold)

Today in "adventures in Discourse users": running random commands on my database because some guy in a forum told me so without any explanation of why, risks, conditions to look for, etc...
"VACUUM"? Sounds completely nondestructive, let's go!
-

Shouldn't that be? I was under the impression it's basically the database version of a garbage collection cycle.

@Dreikin I think it's the shitty open source version of Shrink in MS SQL Server.

@blakeyrat shrink gives free space back to the operating system
Vacuum does free internal things inside postgresql datafiles, and doesn't release anything back to the operating system. It's something that doesn't exist in other popular databases.
-
@fbmac That's what makes it shitty.

Plain VACUUM (without FULL) simply reclaims space and makes it available for re-use. This form of the command can operate in parallel with normal reading and writing of the table, as an exclusive lock is not obtained. However, extra space is not returned to the operating system (in most cases); it's just kept available for re-use within the same table. VACUUM FULL rewrites the entire contents of the table into a new disk file with no extra space, allowing unused space to be returned to the operating system. This form is much slower and requires an exclusive lock on each table while it is being processed.
Huh.
As for being the only popular database to use the command, SQLite also uses it:
SQLite documentation:Running VACUUM to rebuild the database reclaims this space and reduces the size of the database file.

I'm sure oracle has several things like that - it sure loathes giving disk space back to the OS.

Well, yeah. But given that it looked like it was
my discodb is discodown
VACUUM ALL THE THINGS!

looks like it gives back the space to the OS, so it's more like a VACUUM FULL.
-
@Yamikuronue If your vacuum is full, you need to empty it.
DROP DATABASE current_database()

@tufty
Usually followed by
DROP MIC;

SQLite is neither popular nor a database.

@PJH
I think that qualifies more as dropping the ball.
-
@Yamikuronue "Best" part about blindly recommending VACUUM FULL is he didn't include the ANAYLZE option. If you are going to take your DB offline for maintenance may as well have it update statistics while it kills the dead tuples. But then it wouldn't be if he did that though...

Refactor topic performance to support topics with 100k posts+ without serious performance impact
I look forward to the glorious Discourse of Next Tuesday!

Refactor topic performance to support topics with 100k posts+ without serious performance impact
So now there's just going to be a normal performance impact? Enquiring minds etc...
Start date
TBD
Oh - they've not actually fixed it - just thinking about fixing it. As you were.

Just found this:

@Erufael I didn't see anything on their page about letters.

@boomzilla Apparently its a CDN only for images. I thought it was amusing, at any rate. heh.

Over/under on how long before an URGENT UPDATE for Discourse rolls out into testing for 14 days, 7 days before some critical functionality will break as a result of the Ruby 5 update?
