07:08 < akhandait[m]> zoq: Sorry for the late response. Here is the complete error message. Almost all of the errors seem to be with `STBI_` variables in core/data/ files. I hope that's helpful, if not I will post my build configuration.

07:10 < akhandait[m]> I am using the latest ensmallen and armadillo 8.600.0

07:11 < akhandait[m]> Though I don't think the above two have anything to do with these errors

07:21 < Anmol> Hello Everyone, I am new to open source community and I came across MLpack recently! I wish to contribute for it! Can anyone help me for how to get started?

07:22 < Anmol> I am using a Windows Machine.

11:53 < ShikharJ> Sorry if I missed any messages guys, my bouncer is still non functioning at the moment.

12:56 < travis-ci> mlpack/mlpack#8074 (master - 42d154f : sy0814k): The build has errored.

12:58 < zoq> Anmol: Hello, http://mlpack.org/community.html should be helpful.

13:01 < zoq> Does anybody have any problem if we switch from Travis to azure pipelines, that should resolve the regular build timeout?

13:03 < ShikharJ> zoq: I don't have one, but is Azure scheduling available for free?

13:10 < zoq> ShikharJ: 10 parallel jobs with unlimited minutes per month for open source projects, so quite similar to Travis; each job can run for 240 minutes, but I think you have an option to bump the time.

13:13 < zoq> It integrates quite well with Github, especially if you have Github actions, and as long as Microsft owns Github I think it will improve over the years.

13:14 < ShikharJ> zoq: Wow, I didn't know any of that, I don't think of a reason why we shouldn't try that out.

13:19 < zoq> ShikharJ: Well, MS doesn't have a positive record of supporting FOSS, so there might be some reservations.

13:35 < travis-ci> mlpack/mlpack#8075 (master - 24bbbab : Marcus Edel): The build has errored.

18:23 < rcurtin> zoq: sounds good to me; personally I'm a bit disappointed about how long the xenial support took with travis

18:23 < rcurtin> but it's a bit strange to think that maybe the days of travis being totally standard might be coming to a close

18:23 < rcurtin> it makes sense for Microsoft to push Azure since they bought Github though, I guess...

18:24 < rcurtin> if you want to set it up I will be interested to see how it works :)

18:25 < zoq> Especially for appveyor, this is must be difficult.

18:36 < rcurtin> does azure do windows builds too? I guess I assume so?

18:37 < rcurtin> I'm quite happy with AppVeyor's level of support; I suppose we could try switching if you like, but if it's extra work, I haven't seen any need

18:37 < zoq> rcurtin: Yes, Linux, Windows, Mac OS

18:37 < rcurtin> their VS2019 image isn't ready yet (I think this is why it times out regularly) but otherwise I haven't seen any issues

18:37 < zoq> rcurtin: I think it would be nice to run the tests on windows as well.

18:38 < zoq> But if I remember right we run into a timeout as well.

18:59 < rcurtin> zoq: ah, good point, if Azure lets us run those too then maybe it is better to switch
