HackMD meeting notes overwritten

Something overwrote the hackmd content here: https://hackmd.io/@openjs-nodejs/r1mjAn5yWg

I tried reverting it from the Versions and GitHub Sync tab but it's not reverting it, might be a permission issue.

Time-wise, this coincides with https://github.com/nodejs/create-node-meeting-artifacts/actions/runs/19347019492/job/55349858609

The meeting issue and HackMD should not be updated if the meeting has already occurred.

There's no bug, that was me fixing all the dates by re-generating the content

But, @avivkeller are they going to be able to revert the content they lost? Shouldn't you have run dry-run in this case, compare contents instead of overwriting them?

I already reverted it quickly after the problem was reported.

No, I didn't want to dry run. I wanted to overwrite the issues with the new content. I didn't expect there to be an ongoing meeting during my run, had I done my rewrite 5 minutes in the future, this would not have occurred

I'm fairly certain timewise, the deletion happened after the meeting, not during (several hours later on the same day).

Hmmm, I could've sworn it occurred 5 minutes prior to the meeting ending.

I'll double check that.

Ahh, so this wasn't from my manual run, it's because the bot is programmed to use the start of the day as the starting point, not the start of execution.
