# 01:51 tantek I'm wondering if "21:00 on 2014-12-27" is more or less (or same) readable than "2014-12-27 at 21:00".
# 01:51 tantek especially in the context of a bunch of such entries in a row - stacked on top of each other
# 01:51 tantek from the same day - where the time would be different but not the date
KevinMarks__ joined the channel
# 01:54 tantek it looks like it's for machines or UK government. no spaces between components, ALLCAPS MONTH, abbreviated month at that.
KartikPrabhu and lupinedev joined the channel
# 01:56 snarfed tantek: you could collapse the date when it doesn't change
# 01:57 tantek indeed I've seen some blog designs that do that - where the date almost acts like a header for the day
# 01:57 tantek I think one of my old designs used to do that
# 01:57 GWG Doesn't someone have that now who is a regular here?
# 01:57 tantek it doesn't lend itself well to the "small grey text" date/time designs that are so popular now
# 01:58 tantek too hard to connect a de-emphasized (style-wise) date somewhere else with the time
# 02:00 tantek well, prefixing the time with "at" solves the "looks like a duration" problem, however now introduces a new problem
# 02:00 tantek which is it looks more like the time of the thing liked, rather than the time it *was* liked
# 02:06 colintedford tantek: How big a time span do these collections of likes cover? Up to a day?
# 02:06 Loqi colintedford: tantek left you a message 2 hours, 11 minutes ago: yes ellipsis is irrelevant there. prefix of plaintext versions with ws normalization and dropping ellipsis is the key.
# 02:07 tantek the clusters of likes are all sequentially posted on the same day
# 02:08 colintedford In that case I think having the time first works better in that stack view because the rest of the timestamp isn't changing.
# 02:09 colintedford In the list view on the homepage maybe making the times small & gray would help make their function clearer since they would match he date at the bottom of the post.
flowyi joined the channel
# 02:12 tantek the clusters of likes *only* have the time for each like, and the date once at the bottom
# 02:12 tantek see the like cluster at the bottom of the stream at tantek.com
# 02:13 tantek yes - was already considering the small & grey for the times inline - and working on that now
# 02:13 tantek the parentheses then look odd so I may drop them or span display none them for the styled version (but kept in the plain text content)
# 02:16 tantek but yes - I agree that "having the time first works better in that stack view because the rest of the timestamp isn't changing."
# 02:18 colintedford I think parentheses (same small size as time but not gray) would be good inline to help separate it from the "content", but maybe I'd think differently if I saw it.
# 02:19 colintedford or maybe "at 21:00" with no parentheses and the "at" part of the link? I'm sure you'll figure something out :)
# 02:22 GWG tantek: I like simplicity, but looking at the list of likes makes my eyes defocus.
# 02:22 colintedford If the "time first" question was re: your homepage stream I like date first, but time first isn't really a hardship.
# 02:23 colintedford If you post very frequently time first might make more sense (& is the status quo anyway :).
# 02:23 tantek for the home page especially, since posts are expected to be "recent", the time of post is likely more relevant than the date, thus should go first
KevinMarks_ joined the channel
# 02:24 tantek colintedford: yes I'm experimenting with/without parens. may take some longer term experiments to see how it "feels"
# 02:25 tantek GWG do you mean the stacked list or the inline list?
# 02:25 GWG tantek: What is your thought on time parameters like... 1 hour ago....? I forget the term for it?
# 02:25 GWG Thank you, that was bothering me.
# 02:25 tantek GWG yes the stacked list needs a lot more design work
# 02:25 tantek I'm focused on the home page in stream design right now
# 02:26 colintedford I usually care about the date of posts more than time & like the logical order of date first, but it's a personal preference & doesn't much matter. Also I might feel differently if I did more real-time Twitter-y stuff.
# 02:27 snarfed i kind of like the pattern of rendering relative times and showing absolute timestamp in popup when you hover
# 02:28 snarfed tantek: huh, i don't follow. seems unrelated to js?
# 02:28 tantek that is, relative datetimes via JS enhancement, absolute in the content
# 02:28 snarfed ah. the popups can come from pure html, e.g. <span title=…>
# 02:28 tantek snarfed, because you want the relative time to be "correct" when you go back to the window a minute or hour later ;)
# 02:29 tantek so a little settimeout action to update the relative times
# 02:29 tantek it's subtle, and I'm not sure of anyone that does it that way
# 02:29 tantek but if you're going to do relative datetimes, that's how you should do it
# 02:29 tantek until we have some CSS display feature for relative times ;)
# 02:30 prtksxna I usually use moment.js for this, its reliable and has very good i18n support
# 02:31 tantek ok I think I like the no-parens option. the visual cues of size and grayness are enough to subtly connect the times to the dates and permalink meaning
# 02:31 tantek yes I feel that looks pretty clean, and every use of size/color communicates some specific meaning (not just artsy fluff)

# 02:41 tantek colintedford: indeed, "likes" vs. "liked" was a big design discussion
# 02:41 tantek GWG - mine have no e-content or content property at all for that matter
# 02:41 tantek GWG, I'm not sure that's the right answer yet
# 02:41 KartikPrabhu does anyone know how form-encoded datetimes look on the server side? that is how would my micropub enpoint receive a datetime?
# 02:42 tantek hence I asked consuming h-entry readers what they do
# 02:42 tantek colintedford: I prefer omitting the prose subject "I" as in the permalink view - the icon/avatar serves that role
# 02:44 tantek whether you read it as "tantek.com … likes" or "(face) likes" - it makes sense
# 02:45 GWG tantek: If they had that, wouldn't that better be a p-summary?
# 02:45 tantek.com edited /Falcon (-93) "/* improve like posts */ done: increase # of things in my home stream (from 20 to 32) since likes are clustered! Yay for small multiples." (

# 02:45 tantek GWG - not sure. why use p-summary without an e-content or p-content?
# 02:46 tantek if the p-summary is really all there is, then you should be using p-content
# 02:46 tantek now for even more clustering design thinking, sequential liking of the same *person* (or org/source's) posts
# 02:47 tantek e.g. if I like three of @kevinmarks's tweets in a row, do I really need to say "likes @kevinmarks tweet, @kevinmarks tweet, and @kevinmarks tweet"?
mdik joined the channel
# 02:48 tantek e.g. maybe something like "likes three of @kevinmarks's tweets (at 18:48, 18:49, and 18:50)"
# 02:49 tantek instead of "likes @kevinmarks tweet at 18:48, @kevinmarks tweet at 18:49, and @kevinmarks tweet at 18:50"
# 02:50 colintedford I think some kind of clustering would be good. "(at 18:48, 18:49, and 18:50)" means you have to click through to the like before you can click on what was liked, though.
# 02:51 tantek colintedford: right - trying to figure out how to give *some* sort of click target for the thing that was liked
# 02:51 tantek just thinking out loud here in terms of text design
# 02:53 Loqi tantek meant to say: per the type of the thing liked
# 02:53 tantek I'm worried about the excerpts looking nonsensical - kind of like pingbacks do :/
# 02:55 tantek colintedford - do you have citations for "how some poems are referred to by their first line" - I've been totally looking for that kind of prior art!
# 02:55 colintedford (Or I also think of it as shorthand for how you might say "The paragraph starting at...")
# 03:00 tantek going to have to think some more about how to cluster likes of stuff from the same person while still having something clickable for the stuff itself.
# 03:01 tantek thinking text first … the most minimal / simple / dumb thing would be numbered tweets
Rev_Illo joined the channel
# 03:02 tantek e.g. "likes 3 of @KevinMarks's tweets (tweet 1 at 19:02, tweet 2 at 19:01, and tweet 3 at 19:00)"
# 03:02 colintedford & if you make them words rather than numerals it'll read well as a sentence and be more clickable.
# 03:02 tantek and then use "note" or "post" or "photo" for other types
# 03:04 tantek could be JS-enhanced with tooltip text of the entire tweet
# 03:04 tantek when you hover over "tweet 1", "tweet 2" etc.
# 03:04 colintedford Actually "tweet 1" is def. better now that I think my suggestion through further.
# 03:04 tantek perhaps an entire tweetcard pop-up with webaction buttons on it
flowyi_ joined the channel
# 03:05 tantek similarly with photos, a photocard pop-up showing you a thumbnail of the photo
# 03:06 tantek and for non-hover UIs, perhaps a way to expand any such clustering inline
# 03:08 tantek but that's deep diving a bit prematurely on enhanced UX beyond text
# 03:08 tantek the other interesting case is same person, mixed post types
# 03:09 tantek especially combined with some of the same post type!
# 03:09 tantek likes NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:54, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:53, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:52, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:52, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:50, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:49, NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:49, NovemberProjectSF's photo album “NPSF: Our Year in Photos” at 00:47, NovemberProjectSF’s post at 00:46, and NovemberProjectSF’s photo at 00:45.
# 03:09 tantek likes 7 of NovemberProjectSF’s photos (photo 1 at 00:54, photo 2 at 00:53, photo 3 at 00:52, photo 4 at 00:52, photo 5 at 00:50, photo 6 at 00:49, photo 7 at 00:49), photo album “NPSF: Our Year in Photos” at 00:47, post at 00:46, and photo at 00:45.

# 04:45 GWG Give me five minutes to bring up my test instance
# 04:52 Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
# 04:54 GWG prtksxna: I used someone else's code for the radio buttons. I planned on removing it.

# 04:55 GWG I'm trying to reproduce on my end
# 04:57 GWG prtksxna: It shouldn't accept a null. So rewriting the radio box would fix. But let me put in a temporary one.
# 04:58 KartikPrabhu right now only the first one will be picked as u-url due to default parsing rules
# 04:58 GWG prtksxna: But either way, something should be selected. There shouldn't be an option not to. That is the issue.

# 19:33 KevinMarks audio tags work petty well now, though file uploads of audio did crash browsers hard for a bit
# 19:35 ben_thatmustbeme i really wonder how many webmentions i missed since i have had vouch only but not logging attempts that got 449's

# 19:41 Phyks !tell kylewm seems to be a bug in Known. At least, if it is incorrect markup, it does not handle it correctly. Will report.
# 19:41 Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

# 19:54 gRegor` I'm curious about the mf2 to use to represent reading progress, as either a page number or percentage.
# 19:56 snarfed hates designing/implementing ui, and goodreads's embeds are really good
# 19:57 gRegor` snarfed: I'm going to be experimenting with it in the near future
# 20:01 KevinMarks 72 In the Kingdom of Apps, we are users, not makers. 73 Every new page makes the Web bigger. Every new link makes the Web richer.
# 20:01 aaronpk i'd use a bookmark post for a physical book the same way I do online bookmarks, as a way to mark a spot in the book that's significant in some way
# 20:02 aaronpk i wouldn't use a bookmark to track progress of reading a book (despite that being the origin of the term)
# 20:02 tantek so when you put down a book, you post a bookmark of where you got to
# 20:02 gRegor` term collision :)
# 20:02 tantek seriously can't believe he had to explain that.
# 20:02 tantek you could even attach a photo to the bookmark of the page you got to
# 20:03 tantek which would still be a bookmark post since the photo is secondary
# 20:03 aaronpk "Dog-earing is also commonly used to mark a section or phrase in a book that one finds to be important or of personal meaning."
# 20:04 gRegor` Regardless of the terminology, mostly I'm curious about the mf2 to use in marking it up. Which is more for #microformats. I'll discuss there once I start working on it.
# 20:05 tantek gRegor`: that's the point no new uf needed if it's just a bookmark
# 20:05 KevinMarks (the odd part of that was that google OCRd the text and identified the book for me)
# 20:05 gRegor` Does tantek seem extra winky today? ;)

# 20:09 KevinMarks "On-line markets are like the endless conversations you have with your in-laws about when are you going to have another kid."
# 20:11 gRegor` One of the features I like with Goodreads is the graphs they generate. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/262371331 click "Graph" at the right of the "Reading Progress" heading. It would be easier to generate that if I didn't have to parse a page number from the URL
# 20:12 tantek gRegor`: are you saying that generating graphs is a personal itch of yours?
# 20:12 tommorris I'm in the middle of writing a review of a book for my own site. I'm reading the book on my Kindle, and seem to have a mixture of notes I've scribbled in a notebook, and highlights I've made on my Kindle. pulling that together into a review post should be fun.
# 20:13 gRegor` Initially, of course, I just want basic check-ins for my reading progress, of course. Graphs and more advanced features can come later.
# 20:19 KevinMarks my amazon account is shared with my sons, so I get their coursebooks and highlights too

# 20:38 Loqi kylewm: Phyks left you a message 56 minutes ago: seems to be a bug in Known. At least, if it is incorrect markup, it does not handle it correctly. Will report.

# 20:48 aaronpk kylewm: maybe it's an ssl issue then... did you make sure to include the intermediate certs?
# 20:49 Phyks Known is not handling your webmention correctly and fails with erros

# 21:29 tantek let's see how much proprietariness is needed today for ustream
# 21:31 tantek KevinMarks: is there an IRC backchannel for it?
# 21:31 kylewm or impropriety, he just said "cover our butts"
# 21:36 tantek hmm - no one is mentioning the plumbing-centric distraction that the decentralized folks got trapped in
# 21:36 KevinMarks in general? a fairly small group live, more when it posts on TC tomorrow

# 21:45 Phyks kylewm: I don't have much time to debug this tonight, will keep you updated :)
# 21:46 tantek uh no, biggest problem with RSS is that it embodies plumbing-centric thinking, was the heart of the RSS vs. Atom war distraction etc.
# 21:55 tantek hmm - gillmorgang appears to be "OFF AIR" for me - anyone else?

# 21:59 tantek KevinMarks - note that on FirefoxOS, you can use the default app store, another app store, or install directly from web.
# 22:08 tantek why are they more afraid of gamergate than the gunmen responsible for the Paris tragedy?
# 22:11 tantek URLs for each clue is good - however, without aggregation e.g. marginalia via webmentions, it loses a lot of utility.
# 22:12 tantek KevinMarks - note that next Wednesday is the 10 year anniversary when Technorati launched web-wide distributed tags.

# 22:32 gRegor` Wow, I'm surprised to see people using Friendfeed still.
# 22:32 gRegor` Surprised it hasn't been closed, too.
# 22:33 gRegor` Using it as a chat is pretty interesting.
# 22:34 tantek gRegor`: same as people "use" Twitter for "chat"
# 22:34 gRegor` tantek: Just read about your phone-less 2014. Very cool.
# 22:34 gRegor` That friendfeed page works a lot better than twitter.com for chat though
# 22:35 tantek gRegor`: Twitter used to work *great* for chat when you could do it over XMPP
# 22:35 gRegor` Aye, that was awesome.

# 22:36 tantek hmm - what would the indieweb equivalent be of sending notes back/forth over XMPP? bear? got any thoughts there? (you'd still have permalinks of course)
# 22:36 tantek I suppose everyone would have to run their own XMPP server that would listen on everyone else's XMPP server for their posts
# 22:37 tantek and then you could listen to your XMPP servers aggregate of all those
# 22:37 Loqi Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is an open messaging standard, perhaps best known in its use for cross-platform instant-messaging application interoperability https://indiewebcamp.com/XMPP
# 22:37 tantek does anyone have XMPP based posting of notes to their server working?
# 22:38 tantek e.g. add your server as an XMPP contact in your chat app
# 22:38 tantek then whenever you chat to your server's XMPP contact in your chat app (e.g. Adium), it publishes (and POSSEs) a new note for each chat message.
# 22:39 tantek I know Tumblr has a chat contact for posting notes
