Today, as an evening amusement, I fixed a very nast Bug in the #Koha test suite, that did not occure when running only the affected test file, but only when also running some other tests: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=39700

The root cause was a function returning a list, but the test calling the function in scalar context. Unfortunately a classic #Perl footgun :-(

39700 – Fix test case t/db_dependent/Authority/Merge.t broken in 34739

enhancement, P5 - low, assigned to chris, Needs Signoff, in Test Suite, Koha

Today I fought against AI bots that where scraping / DDoSing one of our customers library OPAC. The quick fix was to block all non-EU IP address. We don't have a good fix yet, but can draw on a lot of ideas that where discussed at #Koha Hackfest. #JohnConner

Today I opened 5 "bugs" (in fact feature requests) regarding #Koha Elasticsearch, QA'ed a rather complex one and did a code review on #37020 (bulkmarcimport dieing on large files). And had a very nice last day at the Koha Hackfest!

Today I moderated a discussion about #Koha ElasticSearch bugs and improvement ideas. It was very helpful for me to get feedback from experienced Koha devs. I still need to set up bugs in Bugzilla, though.

#potd How many Koha devs does it take to block AI bots? Meeting at #Koha Hackfest about ways to prevent AI bots from killing our library services. (And you don't even see the remote attendees on the picture) http://domm.plix.at/potd/2025-04-02.html

Today I failed quite a few of joubus Perl Quiz questions at #Koha hackfest. I blame my brain for being mostly trained on sane Perl code to fail to recognize all the horrible corner cases he presented.
