#tantekKartikPrabhu: looks like @luxagraf was owning his own notes here https://luxagraf.net/field-notes/ til June 28, then subsequent tweets are @luxagraf Twitter only. Note also the web actions on his notes.
#KartikPrabhutantek: I wonder why he stopped posting on his own domain
#KartikPrabhugiven that he had so much working on it
#kylewm!tell tantek: to your question about Bridgy publish to FB, it doesn't have a link-preview because that has to be provided explicitly to the facebook posting API (which bridgy doesn't do)
#tantek_Swarm app has 140 character limit on check-in notes (what they call "shouts") = use-case for short domains and permashortlinks

#tantekok aaronpk, we're going to need you on this u-photo discussion
#kylewman additional wrinkle for the bridgy case, i'm not sure it's ever clear that you want to include a "link" at all?
#tantekyou mean the permalink back to the original?
#kylewmsorry, link is the name of the facebook API parameter that makes it a different style of facebook post, with the link-preview at the bottom
#snarfedkylewm: we could make it explicitly opt in. if you leave the checkbox checked in the preview UI, or if you explicitly include a bridgy_omit_link=false in the webmention request (non standard, i know)
#kylewmKartikPrabhu: I did look at bleach but ... a) it is slooow (bc hard dependency on html5lib) and b) i wanted to handle special parsing for @usernames and stuff too
#KartikPrabhukylewm: oh did not know about slowness... never testes
#tantekon today's CPUs, unless you're doing 3D modeling or protein folding or megabytes of IO or something, your code to do pretty much anything should be instant. Zero human noticeable lag.
#KartikPrabhuultimately I am just thinking of pre-processing everything into HTML that the templates can just grab and insert
#snarfedtantek: yes, i know. my site isn't perfect wrt that yet. hard to do on a site with lots of old content; you'll see the same thing on lots of sites that convert to https. not a high priority for me right now.
#tantekand even Aaronpk's recent articles with representative images are NOT using u-photo
#tantekso it appears folks have converged, whether organically or as a result of the "inmates" discussion earlier, on "u-photo" indicating a photo-post (or subtype thereof)
#Loqitantek meant to say: has both u-photo and a p-location h-card *venue* which we had previously decided meant it was a *checkin*
#tanteksince the p-location is a property of the h-entry itself, rather than say being a property of an h-photo (on u-photo) inside the h-entry, I think it makes sense to stick with p-location h-card = checkin
#tantekwhereas if you wanted to "tag" the location of the photo itself, there must be some other object nested inside the u-photo which would have such information. E.g. especially if you have multiple u-photo values, it would/could make sense for them each to have a different physical venue, even if they were part of the same post.
#KartikPrabhutantek: I would attribute the convergence to the inmates discussion. If there is a better/simpler markup I am all for it
#tantekKartikPrabhu: it's unlikely that that many different people with such different sites and methods/styles of posting and implementations would converge on something unless it worked particularly well
#kylewmso tantek: how would you describe the difference between a photo post and a note with a representative photo post?
#tanteka photo post has one or more u-photo properties of the h-entry
#tantekaccording to discussion here and very consistent usage in examples
#tantekthere is no current method of inferring a representative photo of a note or other type of post
#KartikPrabhutantek: first u-photo = representative photo?
#tantekKartikPrabhu: unlikely. In a photo(s) post, typically if there is more than one photo in the post, the "representative photo" is a thumbnail generated from a grid of all the photos.
#kylewmtantek: disregarding markup, what's the difference between the two post types though? like if "a note is a short plain-text article without a title", is a photo "a note with a photo" or...?
#tantekkylewm hard to argue/discuss that in theory (or rather you quickly get into architecture astronomy)
#tantekbetter to discuss using actual examples of a note with a photo vs. a photo post
#tantek.comedited /posts (+913) "/* Inferring post kinds from properties */ u-photo -> photo post. but p-location with venue makes it a checkin regardless. also note p-rsvp, u-like-of, u-repost-of implying post types." (view diff)
#kylewmjust wondering if there is a difference at all, i'm not convinced there is
#tantekKartikPrabhu: I have notes with auto-embedded images all the time, often not from my site. They are all notes with images/photos. None of them are "photo posts"
#KartikPrabhutantek: is there a difference in how I post them? or when someone views them?
#tantekKartikPrabhu: the point is not to try to test things out just to see if you can cause confusion (even in yourself)
#KartikPrabhutantek: not to cause confusion but to see what people mean by this distinction...
#tantekthe point is to document existing behaviors (i.e. how / what people post on silos and how they are presented differently) and make sure we can do the same
#KartikPrabhutantek: which is why I have been following the convention on this mostly... but not sure I like it
#tantekKartikPrabhu: if you want to better understand "what people mean by this distinction", document more silo examples of different post types, with screenshots and permalinks
#tantekthat's the penalty of not documenting your work
#tantekit means others who also have not documented their work can play pseudo-science politics with you
#tantekok kylewm, snarfed, KartikPrabhu, aaronpk and whoever else "conspired" ;) to make u-photo mean "photo post", your real world publishing efforts have not gone unnoticed.
#tantekh-entry spec updated accordingly http://microformats.org/wiki/h-entry - u-photo promoted from "proposed" to "experimental properties in use in the wild", along with the change in meaning from representative photo of the post to this is a photo post.
#KartikPrabhucrap! that messes up my thumbnails for articles!
#KevinMarksActivity Streams wiki was not well gardened
#KartikPrabhuthanks to myself and others, my articles feed is now a feed of photo posts!
#KevinMarksPartly my fault as I was trying not to visibly contribute as getting OWFa through BT legal didn't go well with
ShaneHudson joined the channel
#tantekKevinMarks not your fault in the least. It's because they had/used a mailing list and thus got distracted by having ephemeral arguments on it
#tantekinstead of actually spending their time documenting ideas, iterations, consensus on the wiki
#tantekthis is the natural consequence of nearly every community with a mailing list
#tanteksince in the short term, posting quick things on a mailing list is "easier" because you don't have to try to integrate productively with others' work
#KevinMarksAnd lots of face to face meetings that didn't necessarily feed into the wiki
#KevinMarksGiven site deaths it should be easier now
#tantekKevinMarks: we both have no choice, as any scientists who have to redo the work of alchemists who didn't document their work, and we *ARE* redoing this work with a document-it-as-you-implement it practical self-dog-food culture
#tantekit's also why we've come up with far simpler methods/approaches - that happens when you're forced to implement it if you want it
#tantekas opposed to being forced to come to some political consensus with non-implementers
#tantekKartikPrabhu: your homework assignment/mission, should you choose to accept it, is to research what do newspapers call the photo they sometimes post with an article - do they have a special name for it like "representative photo"
#tantekyou may use any means at your disposal, including directly contacting Jeremy Zilar at the New York Times who has done research into the different names for the different sizes of headings for example
KevinMarks__ joined the channel
#tantek(a shortcut would be to hack/reuse "icon" or "logo" as a property, e.g. u-icon or u-logo, but those don't exactly mean "representative photo" so we may be doing ourselves a disservice there)
#tantekKevinMarks: guessing at bikeshedding before researching existing use is bad form/methodology, hence why I explicitly warned against that shortcut.

#tantek!tell snarfed,kylewm one more (hopefully minor this time) Bridgy Publish to FB request.

#tanteksnarfed - curious why your manual comment on her post didn't link to the permalink of your reply on snarfed.org

#tantekalso, when did Twitter favorites (as in your own username/favorites page) display order switch from ordered by date-when-favorited-most-recent-first to date-when-original-tweet-published-most-recent-first ?
#tantekgRegor`: ok I will unfave and refave, watch this
#gRegor`tantek: It's been original-tweet-publish order for quite some time. I don't remember it being different, actually.
#tantekit used to be the other way, based on when you favorite it
#tantekwhich is how Flickr favorites works for example
#tantekit was better, because you could be like what was that thing I just favorited and then go check your favorites and see it - regardless of how old the original post was
#gRegor`Lulz. Now Lilly's dropped off the facepile and it still lists "2 favorites". When I click 2, though, it pops over and lists all 3.
#aaronpkholy crap "Number of times users clicked on the Tweet to view more details"

#tommorrisIf programmers were building databases 50 years ago, they'd be encoding racial segregation. Today, they are unwittingly encoding cisnormativity. (And if you don't know what that is, check your favourite search engine.)

#tommorristantek: does microformats.org wiki count my hazy recollections as a source for the history of gender representation. because I distinctly remember that there was a protest on MySpace where people would just put "GENDERQUEER" in various fields to fuck with their metadata. alas, the URLs probably do not resolve
#tommorrisUnicode also contains a symbol for aubergine (eggplant): ðŸ†

#tommorrisApparently, Xchat for Windows took the XML approach to error handling: catastrophic failure.
