@mpdesouza Replacing your regular email client is not the goal, at least not at this stage. We load follow-ups as a way to help the maintainer to see what other feedback is available, but the primary features are code review.

b4 review getting started documentation, with screencasts:
https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/reviewer/getting-started.html
Still requires unreleased master version -- I'm hoping for some initial tests before I release 0.15.

b4 review landed in b4 master. I'll post a bunch of stuff tomorrow announcing it, but if you want to give it an early whirl, go ahead. The docs are a bit scant, but they should get you started.
You'll need python textual framework. To start, run "b4 review enroll" in a repo where you'll be reviewing code. Then run "b4 review tui". After that, you can run "b4 review track <msgid>" to pull in a series to review.
Please poke around and break things. I'm sure that won't be too hard.

Remember how computers in the Start Trek TOS speak in a flat, monotonous machine voice? I think we should retcon that to be a deliberate policy choice implemented as a result of mass psychological trauma experienced by humanity in early eras of AI. A kind of intentional design choice similar how North American outlets present as scary frowny faces.

Here's an asciinema recording of the current state of b4 review:
https://asciinema.org/a/795683
It shows patchwork integration, reviewing series, taking series, sending thank-you notes, etc.
It's still rough around the ages, but it's doing useful things. I hope to release it as "pre-alpha" soon.

4 years of war in Ukraine
Show content
Today begins year 5 of Russia's full scale aggression against Ukraine and it will soon be 12 years since Russia first started this war by illegally occupying and then annexing Crimea.
Fuck Putin, fuck everyone who supported this invasion then, and especially fuck those who through greed, cowardice, or direct allegiance maintain Putin in power today: Kim, Fico, Orban, Xi, Trump.
Ukraine is the only power directly opposing Putin today, which is why I will continue to support it until Putin is defeated, until Russia restores the borders in their 1991 configuration and commits to pay reparations for all the grievous damage it's done and continues to do. Glory to Ukrainians and everyone fighting on their side -- may we all have their resolve and courage when it's time to take arms to defend our homes against a large and bloodthirsty neighbour who comes to pillage and kill.

@krzk Not a joke -- I really expect the answer to boil down to that.

@krzk It being PyTorch, I expect the answer will be "we asked an AI agent to put together a database of addresses that would be interested in receiving PyTorch announcements."

@stgraber Can you please send your traceroute6 to helpdesk@kernel.org? I don't see any problems, so it must be something unique to your path.

girlonthenet@mastodon.socialWhen YouTube says 'this is not available in your country' it should also list the countries where it *is* available, so I know which one to set my VPN to.

@mpdesouza I just need to complete a few steps that would let maintainers "take" the series as opposed to just review it. Not far now, I just need to a) recover from being sick, b) stop dealing with failing hardware. ;)
