| 22:02 | <DerekNonGeneric> | not sure what logs i was reading, but learned of something called tcq (https://tcq.app/), found some docs @ https://github.com/tc39/how-we-work/blob/HEAD/how-to-participate-in-meetings.md and also found the repo (https://github.com/bterlson/tcq), but not too sure how anyone was able to get this thing to build... it uses a really old version of node and all the deps are deprecated? |
| 22:29 | <DerekNonGeneric> | oh, looks like it was brought up a little while ago in #tc39-delegates:matrix.org -- that project looks to be in pretty bad shape -- almost every api and dependency it uses is currently deprecated... from the documentdb store it uses to all the webpack plugins it uses (yikes) |
| 22:36 | <Aki> | lololol |
| 22:36 | <Aki> | look |
| 22:36 | <Aki> | it has a job to do, and with one tiny exception, it does it |
| 22:37 | <Aki> | i love tcq and will defend it to my dying day |
| 22:49 | <DerekNonGeneric> | well, feeling bad for whoever gets stuck w/ getting that thing in working order (it doesn't seem to be a trivial web app either) |
| 22:49 | <Aki> | it is not trivial. it's a side project. |
| 22:50 | <Aki> | on a semi-related note i just learned today that a person I was speaking to assumed the chairs get paid for our work and keeping my laughter in was a real accomplishment |
| 22:50 | <Aki> | (cuz I wasn't laughing at them, i was laughing at the idea of Ecma paying us) |
| 22:52 | <Aki> | it is not trivial. it's a side project. |
| 22:53 | <DerekNonGeneric> | lol, i feel that about the $$ thing -- going to see what it would take to at least not depend on a version of node that is EOL |
| 22:55 | <DerekNonGeneric> | ... this is just for personal edification (still haven't even figured out what it does lol) |
| 22:58 | <Aki> | here, have some screenshots from my intro slides last September |
| 23:03 | <DerekNonGeneric> | nice, looks kinda like business meeting software |
| 23:18 | <bterlson> | Fwiw it is running on node 14. Needs node 8 to build. |
| 23:19 | <Aki> | welcome back, boo |
| 23:19 | <Aki> | wait you're not back yet |
| 23:22 | <bterlson> | No, I'm modding some cabinets but I felt like someone was talking about tcq so I stopped by 😀 |
| 23:28 | <bterlson> | Also fwiw tcq2 built on fluid framework should be out q1 2022 |
| 23:34 | <DerekNonGeneric> | what about the sheets back-end tho? sheetcq seemed like an interesting idea |
| 23:38 | <DerekNonGeneric> | ... otherwise looking like documentdb (deprecated) -> @azure/cosmos (?) https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure/cosmos |
| 23:48 | <DerekNonGeneric> | having an unfortunate case of "haven't heard of it here" syndrome (ditto fluid framework 😆) |
