probably sure it's already being thought about, i was thinking about this tonight multiprofile indieweb android app but http://blog.rmendes.net/2015/we-need-a-multi-profile-indiewebindieauth-android-app-indieweb

pwcc: I'm trying to get a default taxonomy term set if no term is selected in the box. But the code isn't defaulting
#
GWG
Also, if you want to try the plugin in general, feedback is always appreciated on any of my projects. I want to make them better
prtksxna and jden joined the channel
#
pwcc
GWG: are you wanting to do it https://github.com/dshanske/indieweb-taxonomy/blob/master/kind-postmeta.php#L34 or on in the function beginning on line 58 of the same file?
KartikPrabhu and KevinMarks_ joined the channel
#
GWG
pwcc: I was trying to do it by adding the following the function beginning on L58
#
GWG
$terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->id, 'kind');
#
GWG
if ( empty( $terms ) )
#
GWG
{ wp_set_post_terms( $post_id, 'note', 'kind', true ); }

pwcc
GWG: in the wp_get_post_terms line $post->id should probably be $post_id
#
GWG
pwcc: I tried it both ways
crystal_ joined the channel
#
GWG
pwcc: I'm stumped
#
pwcc
GWG: nothing else is jumping out, sorry.
#
pwcc
GWG: maybe try wp_set_object_terms
#
pwcc
GWG: but really clutching at straws. I think it's pretty much an alias.
kronda joined the channel
#
GWG
pwcc: It is. the post version just limits to the 'post' post type.
#
GWG
pwcc: Oh well

pwcc
GWG: if count( $terms ) === 0 maybe

pwcc
GWG: sorry i'm not been much use, at work so limited to ideas rather than testing.
KevinMarks__ joined the channel
#
pwcc
GWG: although empty should get that.
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
GWG
pwcc: I tried it without the conditional entirely. It didn't work
#
kylewm
Acidnerd: actually not much work has been done around multiple identities. several people have said they consider more than one site to be their "primary personal site"
#
kylewm
Acidnerd: the indieauth solution is generally to use e.g. Indieauth+Github to authorize one site and Indieauth+ Twitter to auth the other
#
pwcc
GWG: Have you tried with the save_post & publish_post running at the default (10, I think) rather than at 5?
#
aaronpk
kylewm: I use GPG to sign in to things as indiewebcat.com
#
pwcc
GWG: The post id may not be known - although I think that would be silly
#
kylewm
aaronpk: destroying the illusion man
#
GWG
pwcc: Did that too
#
GWG
pwcc: And it is known, because in the previous line, I'm using it to update post_meta

aaronpk
er, I mean,

aaronpk
Dora has her own GPG collar

don't spoil the magic.

she does actually have her own Misfit shine
#
pwcc
GWG: I'll have a tinker and see if I can figure something out.

pdurbin
kylewm: how's the android development going?
#
KartikPrabhu
Acidnerd: kylewm: if one wants to use 2 websites then one can. You'll have to have indieauth setup on both. I don't see the problem? Profile switching in an "app" is to be handled by the app. Don't see the multiple-website issue
#
aaronpk
yeah, it's not really a "problem," you just do it
#
KartikPrabhu
just like there are "apps" that hold both your Twitter and G+ or whatever
dch joined the channel

pwcc: Thank you. I'm just stumped.

#
GWG
snarfed, aaronpk: I was thinking that the JSON REST API in WordPress 4.1 would get me half the way there
#
snarfed
GWG: really? why?
#
GWG
snarfed: I thought extending it would be easier than starting from scratch.
#
snarfed
GWG: hmm, maybe. the APIs don't overlap though, right?
#
snarfed
regardless, sure, could help
#
tantek
benwerd++ for fixing the errant p-photo markup in Known!
#
Loqi
tantek: benwerd left you a message 4 hours, 52 minutes ago: Thanks for the photo prods - haven't updated my own site yet. Making so many changes that I'm waiting until the end of the day.

Leeky joined the channel
#
GWG
snarfed: It is possible without it. But there would be a lot of pieces.
#
snarfed
GWG: hmm, maybe.
#
snarfed
the other catch is, afaik the REST API requires oauth for every request, right?
#
snarfed
and micropub has its own different auth
#
GWG
snarfed: That is correct.
lukebrooker joined the channel
#
kylewm
there's some non-zero chance that you could use massage wordpress's oauth to work with micropub auth
Leeky joined the channel

of course!

Launched my simplified comment display. I'm liking it better. http://gregorlove.com/2014/02/1180/
#
KartikPrabhu
gRegor`: why do some missing avatars have alt text and other don't?
#
kylewm
I like it gRegor`
#
gRegor`
I think you mean the local blog comments, which don't have an avatar.
#
gRegor`
First two are local comments.
#
gRegor`
Joel's is a bridgy wm
#
KartikPrabhu
aah I see. gotcha
#
gRegor`
Still going back and forth about "likes this" "favorited this" and "retweeted this"

gRegor`
Interesting. webvatar falls back to google chart api to show the domain name as an image, e.g. http://webvatar.com/tylerfontaine.me
#
gRegor`
Unfortunately that won't look good at 50px
#
GWG
snarfed: If anyone wanted me to work on it with them, I'd try.

GWG
I think I'm getting better. But I'm nowhere near where I'd like to be."
#
pwcc
GWG: I will look at Ben's form & think about WP data
#
GWG
pwcc: Well, part of the problem is that WordPress doesn't have replies...unless you add my plugin. Which means you have dependencies.
#
pwcc
GWG: Correct. Outside of http://codex.wordpress.org/Geodata there's not rules around how data shoukd be stored either.
#
GWG
pwcc: I use geodata in a plugin in that format.

#
tantek
huh, I just created 58 like posts in a row
nloadholtes joined the channel
#
tantek
and am about to mass publish them, but because I "only" show most recent 42 posts on my home page, they won't all show up there
#
tantek
this whole posting likes on my own site is drastically affecting my posting behavior
#
tantek
and making me rethink how many "recent posts" I should put on my site
amblin joined the channel
#
tantek
from 20 to 32 to 42 to now … 64 ?
#
GWG
Maybe you want a different display for them? Outside the normal flow?
#
tantek
that's the thing, no problem with display since I cluster adjacent likes!
#
tantek
also - "outside normal flow" was already studied by Facebook and found to be *LESS* user-effiicient / user-friendly
#
tantek
now let's see what happens with Falcon when I update with +58 posts at once!
#
tantek
well nothing broke
#
tantek
however - wow - that's one long cluster of likes: http://tantek.com/
#
tantek
now for some bridgy action
#
@lukew
Being focused doesn't mean only doing one thing. It means all the things you do support a clear, well-defined purpose.
(twitter.com/_/status/555246011078029312)
#
pwcc
tantek is it possible for each cluster to count as one post in Falcon?
#
pwcc
In terms of pagination that is, tantek?
#
KartikPrabhu
was going to make same suggestion ^
#
KartikPrabhu
also a better display of clustered likes would be good. In the current format, it is hard to distinguish the diff. likes immediately. Maybe a more list-like like display?
#
tantek
pwcc - will consider different pagination approaches
lukebrooker joined the channel
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: except that a list of tweets would still take up too much vertical space
#
tantek
the goal is the opposite - to cluster / compress even more
#
tantek
so that you don't have to scroll as much
#
KartikPrabhu
hmmm but then it is sort of hard to read
#
tantek
GWG - I "liked" this post https://david.shanske.com/2014/12/27/indieweb-2014-end-year-summary/ but don't see any display of likes or comments on your post
#
tantek
did that get dropped? or never implemented?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: yeah I get the readability challenge - hence I need to keep iterating on clusterd likes presentation
#
GWG
tantek: Moderated.
#
tantek
but heck - I'm experimenting with it in public :)
#
tantek
GWG - drat, even likes?!?
#
GWG
tantek: No choice there
#
GWG
WordPress sees likes as comments
#
GWG
It's on my list somewhere.
#
GWG
I approved it
#
GWG
I wanted to implement some auto-approvals.

darn, the timeouts on pingbacks setting in WordPress means I can't webmention "like" Dan Gillmor's article http://dangillmor.com/2014/04/25/indie-web-important/
#
GWG
tantek: You mean, close after X days?
#
tantek
yes - I'm getting a 403 trying to do a webmention
#
tantek
with some message like that
#
GWG
Not uncommon to set it up for older documents.
#
tantek
aaronpk - I just got rejected by your webmention endpoint
#
tantek
used your form
#
tantek
"The webmention finished processing but there was an error."
#
tantek
"Error: no_mention_found \ \ No link was found from source to target"
#
tantek
also sent a webmention like to http://wordius.com/jekyll-and-the-indieweb/ but appears I'm in moderation there too :/

KartikPrabhu

!tell ben_thatmust looks like your post https://ben.thatmustbe.me/note/2015/1/11/1/ is claiming to 202 a webmention attempt, but it never shows up: http://tantek.com/2015/013/f40

alright, took me far too long to manually webmention with forms and/or Bridgy to POSSE to Twitter 58 likes in a row
#
tantek
clearly that's an itch that needs to be scratched
#
tantek
but not tonight
#
almereyda

Thanks for the reminder. Has to be rewritten until April 2015, so there's time to calibrate.
#
tantek
almereyda: I don't understand the purpose of that page / URL / site - but that's ok, don't need to. Is that a personal site? is it yours?

almereyda: add yourself to https://indiewebcamp.com/irc-people !
#
almereyda
yeah, #indieweb almost felt cold.
#
tantek
that's why I autojoin that too - just in case someone pops up there accidentally
#
tantek
(i.e. there are no links to that channel anywhere on the web - so only "guessing" folks find it)
#
tantek
if you start at indiewebcamp.com - you find the right things
#
almereyda
It's already autojoined, but inscription will be postponed until I feel myself more "A list of IRC regulars"
#
tantek
anyway - no matter
#
tantek
go ahead and add yourself to https://indiewebcamp.com/irc-people
#
tantek
it's a good exercise :)
#

mäh. *feedingmydogsownfoot* or something. But this will certainly be the last thing tonight. This morning. Whatever.

I just bumped my home page to showing most recent 100 posts, now that I'm posting so many likes
#
tantek
could folks try going to tantek.com and tell me if takes more than a second to load and display?
#
tantek
(I'm seeing load/display times of under a second, just wanted confirmation - my home network is not that fast either)
#
KevinMarks_
Seems fast to me
#
tantek
KevinMarks: in under 64k bytes :)

I'll say that again, 100 posts, <64k bytes.

#
tantek
however - flat file FTW
#
KevinMarks_
That's more posts than I have on my site.
#
tantek
KevinMarks: and the page is built dynamically from flat file storage *on every load*
#
KartikPrabhu
hopes to get such performance on his file-storage
#
almereyda
s/tast/task
#
KevinMarks_
Though presumably your flat files are cached by the file system
#
tantek
KevinMarks: better than that - I'm doing only *three* file read operations to build those 100 posts.
#
tantek
two bim storage files and one index.html template to fill in
#
tantek
oh I suppose two more reads for falcon.php and cassis.js
#
KartikPrabhu
whaaaa! neat. so you put all posts in one big file?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: I've told you that before. one file per bim
#
KartikPrabhu
oh hmm yeah i recall now
Jihaisse joined the channel
#
KartikPrabhu
hmm I am putting each post in its own file... might have to look into performance
#
KevinMarks_
Each post to my site is a Heroku deploy, which is not fast enough for that posting rate
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: indeed - one file per post is too much I/O overhead

Homebrew VCs want your contact page as a startup
#
tantek
KevinMarks_: meh - VCs wouldn't know what to do with it if they had it
#
tantek
they'd just screw it up with their meddling

tantek
get paid to compromise a non-user-centric design and fail slowly
#
KevinMarks_
Why can't I communicate with a friend or colleague on any service without knowing the right “name” if I know  them in real life or on another service? Shouldn't I be able to control who can call me after 7pm or on weekends or set a preference for always accepting calls from my wife, partner of company CEOs? Someone please create a universal addressing system, a human DNS of sorts. - SP 
#
tantek
KevinMarks_: that sounds like they'd pay for that service

Only for .ceo domains
#
tantek
also - this is a bit of challenge for the DB crowd (especially WP)
#
tantek
can you generate / display your home page with 100 most recent posts in <64kb in <1s ?
#
KevinMarks_
Blogger can meet it I think
#
tantek
KevinMarks_: ooh - yeah, Blogger might.
#
tantek
since it's old enough!

(to be efficient)

(and isn't all janked up with tons of crazy JS)

And Google optimise response time well

tantek: I'm confused as well about why my site rejected your webmention
#
aaronpk
the only thing I can think of is that you originally had linked to the http URL but sent the https URL as the target
#
tantek
aaronpk - I think it was my error - I linked to the http not https version at first
#
tantek
fixed now

but I think your site is supposed to accept that

per following redirects

I dunno I'm getting 250ms output of the HTML of my home page (10 posts) and I have one file per post. I'll have to time it with a page that has more than 10 files to read

223ms for the giant collections post which has to read all the individual tweets from their own files

premium 1k/yr "about.me" pages is totally possible. i've gotta dig up this link
#
aaronpk
tantek: I don't redirect http->https yet because I haven't solved mixed-content warnings.
#
aaronpk
should I be accepting webmentions when the source URL doesn't match the linked URL anyway?
prtksxna joined the channel
#
tantek
if you're not redirecting then nm
#
tantek
I thought you were
#
tantek
or if you serve from both http and https then you should be accept webmentions on both
#
aaronpk
even if the scheme doesn't match?
#
tantek
hmm - only if a redirect fixes such a mismatch
#
aaronpk
if a redirect *would have* fixed the mismatch if the redirect had been in place even if it isn't?
#
tantek
strictly speaking. though better practices may be possible.
#
aaronpk
I'm inclined to say yes
#
KevinMarks
I got an https error from Tantek's site

i don't think tantek's site is served via https

KevinMarks: I have a self-signed cert I use for my admin UI
#
aaronpk
tantek: any reason you aren't upgrading that to a free startssl cert?
#
aaronpk
it's about as difficult as a self-signed cert
#
tantek
too much to read in the instructions on /https ?
#
aaronpk
hmm... how to fix that...
#
aaronpk
most of that page doesn't apply if you aren't running your own web server
#
aaronpk
in other words, most of that is handled by the web host
#
tantek
so not obvious to the casual reader
#
aaronpk
maybe that page should be split into two sections: 1) getting an SSL cert and 2) using/installing the SSL cert
#
tantek
social media pro-tip: avoid telling people to "f*** off" - it doesn't really get you advocates.

hmm - aaronpk, maybe you already discussed this, but this tweet seems to have a trailing URL that looks like an "original" post permalink but is not :/ https://twitter.com/aaronpk/status/555111508385234945

yeah, that should be sorted out now

I believe according to original-post-discovery - that will cause a false positive :/

they don't, but they probably should. must have just been an oversight when I made them

tantek
I must admit when I didn't see any place where a like would show up, I was like meh, I can like it later :P
#
kylewm
I could use a little advice. this python imageproxy thing is not working correctly... it's supposed to handle up to 50 concurrent requests but it's definitely not doing that https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/38780898/imageproxy-blocking.png
#
bear
@kylewm do you have a source code link for it?
#
kylewm
bear: this is the bit that's supposed to fetch images from other servers https://github.com/agschwender/pilbox/blob/master/pilbox/app.py#L180
#
tantek
aaronpk, do your collection posts bring in images from tweets?
#
kylewm
I think that the actual image resizing *is* blocking, but i wouldn't expect it to block for 20 seconds
#
@kevinmarks
@anildash all that's been shipped as #indieweb told, except we use html instead of json because web. Try it.
(twitter.com/_/status/555418088456605696)
#
aaronpk
yes, the twitter-mf2-shim library finds images in tweets and adds them to the "photo" property
#
aaronpk
so any h-entry that has a photo will have that photo rendered in my collection posts
#
kylewm
bear: I'm thinking maybe I should ditch it and handle resizing/caching myself?
#
bear
yea, I'm looking at that code and I don't see any reason why it should block for the concurrent clients
#
bear
but it does seem like overkill - queue them up and have a worker handle it IMO
#
tantek
aaronpk - that's awesome - assuming you're caching the photos too?
#
aaronpk
hm let me check, not actually sure
#
tantek
you know we haven't had a db argument in a while - I'm just going to leave this here https://twitter.com/abritinthebay/status/555273975303917569 ;)
#
kylewm
bear: ok thank you for looking!
#
bear
@kylewm np - the problem could be deep in the async code or in how the resizing call is being handled, lots of edge cases
#
aaronpk
tantek: no it looks like right now i'm just hotlinking to whatever URL is in the photo property
#
tantek
thus if the tweet is deleted the text is saved but not the photo?
#
aaronpk
if twitter deletes the photo, yes
#
aaronpk
I want to use the same mechanism that I'll use to store profile photos though
#
tantek
I would assume so since they delete profile photos
#
aaronpk
something like kylewm's imageproxy

#
tantek
tommorris: that is, there are some cases where "attack mode on other approaches" can be reasonable / rational / helpful
#
tommorris
tantek: there's a difference between talking to established technical people and talking to non-technical and/or newbies.
#
tommorris
like if you are talking to a non-technical newbie and they say they use Tumblr or Facebook, going on about the evils of silos won't get people excited in the same way as "hey, you know that we've been working on Tumblr-like products but without some of the limitations of Tumblr and some new cool stuff"

#
cweiske
wow. reminds me of "castle in the sand".
#
aaronpk
tantek: right now indienews requires crafting a URL to indienews before sending the webmention, so a webmention form only helps with half of that
#
tantek
half help is better than nothing!
#
aaronpk
guess that's true
#
tantek
I found those forms quite useful yesterday when manually sending webmentions
#
tantek
only one thing to copy paste
#
tantek
my permalink
#
aaronpk
especially my forms cause my webmention URLs are so long
#
tantek
instead of THREE (source, target, endpoint) into a curl command line, then copy paste that (four) into a command line
#
tantek
so it actually helps with more like 75% in my experience :)
#
aaronpk
I want to find a better way to submit things to indienews though
#
aaronpk
the other problem right now is you can essentially only submit posts on your own domain
#
aaronpk
like I couldn't do what kevinmarks does with adding #indieweb to tweets to have URLs to things show up here
#
aaronpk
that's the kind of stuff I want on indienews
#
Acidnerd
what if the title of the post + a defined hashtag for the community could help structuring what get posted and not ?
#
Acidnerd
+ having all the correct meta
#
Acidnerd
so you could also structure information on the reader at the source
#
aaronpk
oh hey, well one way people could submit not-their content and still own the submission is by submitting bookmark posts
#
Acidnerd
and have something like folders or tags or topics
#
aaronpk
and indienews could use the "bookmark" property for the post rather than the submitter's URL
#
Acidnerd
that would be nice, but then visitors on indienews would first be sent to the bookmark and then visit the source ?
#
aaronpk
no, it would just link to the thing that is bookmarked
#
Acidnerd
sounds nicer
#
aaronpk
and could say in small text "submitted by ____" with a link to their bookmark post
#
Acidnerd
wonderful
#
Acidnerd
so how would one be admitted to post on indienews ? what makes a approved source of bookmarks ?

that solves the problem of getting more domains on there, but doesn't solve the problem of needing to craft the URL to use as the webmention target
#
Acidnerd
domains then ok
#
Acidnerd
wouldn't be possible to make one site indienews ready ?
#
Acidnerd
like by adding a permanent necessary format
#
aaronpk
I guess another way of submitting may be to log in and add a URL to a feed of posts you want to submit

cool. autospamming.
#
aaronpk
so I could say "hey indienews, grab posts from this URL that are tagged #indieweb"
#
Acidnerd
aaronpk, that was my first belief
#
aaronpk
like Planet style
#
Acidnerd
do you see indienews more as a "reddit' or more as a feed reader ?
#
cweiske
planets are curated
#
aaronpk
curated? not the ones I've seen

I'm on Planet Linode, they just post all my articles from my articles atom feed

what is a planet?
#
aaronpk
Acidnerd: originally I saw it more as a reddit (which is why the front page ranks by upvotes) but that has turned out to be less useful because we just don't have the volume of submissions of reddit/hackernews
#
aaronpk
so I want to turn it more into a feed reader format
#
Acidnerd
that would be even better, because would make it all reusable in different context
#
Acidnerd
like yours could be focused #indieweb
#
Acidnerd
but i could open a new instance gather people around me and define what makes them able to push content to my reader
#
aaronpk
I kinda like that idea
#
aaronpk
huh apparently we had planned on making planet.indiewebcamp.com 2 years ago

i was thinking yesterday night, how this whole idea #indieweb could be the start of something really different on the way data is being structured for consumers : because the content creator can/could adopt structure (hashtags or other rules) at the source and these would then be structured at the beginning of the process of dissemination, so you create, then it get POSSED with correct hashtags to silo's, or sent to specific topic or niche readers t
#
Acidnerd
hat gather communities
#
Acidnerd
not sure i'm making myself readable
#
Acidnerd
but for me it makes all the difference into how one could be aware of new content, if it was structured at the beginning of it's journey
#
tantek
Acidnerd - sounds like the makings of a blog post you should post!
#
Acidnerd
it's like tweeting without a tag, you're only speaking to followers, the moment you tag, then you're structuring information for those that monitor it at least
#
tantek
even such short musing posts are good to quickly publish
#
Acidnerd
sounds like it :)
#
aaronpk
totally! those are some of my favorite posts of mine, I never regret having done that when I go back and look at it later
#
Acidnerd
this stuff i just sent, is my main problem with the info/news projects i run
#
Acidnerd
it's hard to avoid the noise of the web, when information isn't structured

and if you really want to get fancy, you can put a fragmention to each quotation in the "cite" attribute of each blockquote

point taken, of course - that blog post's design doesn't necessarily prioritize indieweb ideals - but the *content* is still good

meh - the content is old print-style. not hypertext. not "blog" worthy.

like i said. the *content* is good.

lacking citations (hyperlinks) I'm no longer willing to give it much credibility. he might as well have posted plain text to a usenet forum.

i understand where you're coming from. it's a bit harsh, though. there's lots of good writing out there that's not structured in strict citation-based, referential, scientific argument, style

context -- the checkbox to "email me if someone replies"

kylewm - yes, that's not user-centric design at all

tantek: you yourself argue against absolutist thinking, right? so it's not ideal, but it still has some merit

the level of merit it has at this point is so low that I've abandoned mailing lists of equivalent level

the email checkbox thing appears to have gone the complete other direction - that is - notifications for all the things!

and email notification is just *one* possible form you can now receive them

the common alternative is to style email notifications to look like "cards," instead of normal emails, so that users naturally click on links to reply instead of replying by email
