th1a | hi replaceafill. | 18:55 |
---|---|---|
replaceafill | hey th1a | 18:55 |
th1a | How's it going? | 18:56 |
replaceafill | finished peas changes | 18:56 |
replaceafill | not packaged yet | 18:56 |
replaceafill | merging the rising changes | 18:56 |
th1a | Does the Rachel/Fran email thread make sense to you? | 18:57 |
replaceafill | i haven't paid attention to that | 18:57 |
replaceafill | it seems like the report cards are fran's priority for now | 18:58 |
replaceafill | not so much those bugs | 18:58 |
replaceafill | so... | 18:58 |
th1a | Yeah. | 18:58 |
th1a | Fine. | 18:58 |
th1a | Better to stay focused. | 18:58 |
replaceafill | :/ | 18:58 |
th1a | I encourage it! | 18:58 |
th1a | So as I was walking into this conference this morning I was walking behind the RI director of labor and training, and he was talking to someone about how much the data system for this new job training program was fucking things up. | 18:59 |
th1a | Like "now we can at least get the data in, but we can't get it out!" | 19:00 |
th1a | Just for reference, when I keep telling you we're doing better than you think, compared to the (probably much, MUCH more expensive) alternatives. | 19:01 |
replaceafill | :) | 19:01 |
th1a | I don't have anything else to add to your plate. | 19:02 |
replaceafill | thank God! | 19:02 |
replaceafill | :) | 19:02 |
th1a | If I was a busybody we would have driven each other away years ago. | 19:03 |
th1a | OK, thanks replaceafill. | 19:03 |
replaceafill | ok, thanks th1a | 19:03 |
*** robb_nl has quit IRC | 20:07 | |
replaceafill | th1a, you around? | 20:22 |
th1a | Yes. | 20:31 |
replaceafill | sigh... | 20:31 |
replaceafill | ok, let's have a fun discussion about promotion/graduation again, shall we? | 20:32 |
replaceafill | i'm testing the report card | 20:32 |
th1a | OK. | 20:32 |
replaceafill | and checking the peas issue | 20:32 |
replaceafill | the peas issue is related to levels and years not being calculated correctly | 20:32 |
replaceafill | basically the peas issue is me just querying the level asking "give me your active students" | 20:33 |
replaceafill | without any reference to dates, level gives back just current students | 20:33 |
th1a | OK. | 20:33 |
replaceafill | so, the rising report card takes into account levels + dates | 20:33 |
replaceafill | to avoid the same problem | 20:34 |
replaceafill | so i can ask "give me the students in this level in this range of dates" | 20:34 |
replaceafill | but i just found an issue with graduation/promotion dates | 20:34 |
replaceafill | probably caused by one of those view | 20:34 |
replaceafill | s | 20:34 |
replaceafill | 2015 is defined from apr 14 to dec 11 | 20:35 |
replaceafill | 2016 is defined from jan 11 to jul 15 | 20:35 |
replaceafill | some students have graduations dates from level one on jan 11 :( | 20:36 |
replaceafill | so it looks like they graduated after the 2015 year finished | 20:36 |
th1a | OK. | 20:36 |
th1a | Is that a problem? | 20:36 |
replaceafill | hhmm | 20:36 |
replaceafill | now that i'm explaining it | 20:37 |
replaceafill | i think i got the solution | 20:37 |
replaceafill | the lookup based on dates | 20:37 |
replaceafill | has to go from "active date to (inactive date - 1 day)" | 20:37 |
replaceafill | that way the range comparison would work | 20:38 |
replaceafill | because the comparison only cares about active states | 20:38 |
replaceafill | but it feels hacky... | 20:38 |
replaceafill | "Tom when were you active in level 1?" | 20:38 |
replaceafill | you don't answer from day 1 to last day - 1... | 20:38 |
replaceafill | "i was inactive the last day of the year!" :S | 20:39 |
th1a | It probably needs some slack to make up for human input. | 20:39 |
replaceafill | in any case, being marked as graduated from a level after the year finished seems like a data problem to me | 20:39 |
th1a | You mean, not our problem? | 20:40 |
replaceafill | yeah | 20:40 |
th1a | RIght. | 20:40 |
th1a | Be liberal in what you accept. | 20:40 |
replaceafill | but it was probably caused by the buggy views :( | 20:40 |
th1a | Eh... | 20:41 |
th1a | Don't worry about it. | 20:41 |
replaceafill | now that i think it through | 20:41 |
replaceafill | the attendance way | 20:41 |
replaceafill | when we check *EVERY SINGLE SCHOOL DAY* works like this | 20:42 |
replaceafill | because on the last day you'll be in fact taken as inactive | 20:42 |
replaceafill | ok | 20:42 |
replaceafill | i'll adapt the new code | 20:42 |
th1a | Cool. | 20:42 |
replaceafill | this new code btw | 20:42 |
replaceafill | i think it'll be the fix to the peas issue | 20:42 |
replaceafill | i'll probably move it around later this week | 20:43 |
replaceafill | ok | 20:43 |
replaceafill | thanks th1a | 20:43 |
replaceafill | see? | 20:43 |
replaceafill | i need another developer to talk to :( | 20:43 |
th1a | You can talk to me! | 20:43 |
replaceafill | :D | 20:43 |
replaceafill | kk | 20:43 |
th1a | But yeah, I mean, the $50,000 is partly to try to achieve that. | 20:44 |
replaceafill | get a developer to talk to? | 20:44 |
replaceafill | :D | 20:44 |
th1a | You have an appt. tomorrow, btw, so no meeting? | 20:44 |
replaceafill | oh crap | 20:44 |
replaceafill | yes | 20:44 |
replaceafill | thanks for reminding me :) | 20:44 |
replaceafill | i did confirm it this morning though | 20:45 |
th1a | OK. | 20:45 |
