ben_thatmust
good evening folks
#
ben_thatmust
whoever is around
#
aaronpk
evening
#
ben_thatmust
knew someone had to be, quiet day
#
aaronpk
indeed
#
aaronpk
5 weeks until the W3C F2F meeting
#
Loqi
I added a countdown scheduled for 3/15 6:54pm (#5605)
#
ben_thatmust
huh, never saw Loqi do that
#
Loqi
grins profusely
#
aaronpk
which means 5 weeks until I have an indieweb reader
#
ben_thatmust
2 minutes until I find out what happens when a countdown finishes
#
Loqi
I added a countdown scheduled for 2/8 6:57pm (#5606)
#
Loqi
I find out what happens when a countdown finishes
#
millette
I hope to see some interest for our first Montréal HWC meeting
#
ben_thatmust
that would be neat
#
millette
I'm not microformatting or doing anything indiewebby except login for now, but I had to start somewhere: http://robin.millette.info/cswfm-2015-02-11
#
millette
maybe even a 2-day camp in June, who knows :-)
#
ben_thatmust
we all had to start somewhere
#
millette
except that guy holding the flag, I guess ;-)
#
ben_thatmust
i cheated on the microformats setup and started from a wordpress mf2 theme
#
aaronpk
how is that cheating?
#
millette
I remember using microformats lots, but then I slipped away, and microformats 2 happenned!
#
millette
I'm almost done coding my bios for my new os, I don't trust NIH *héhé*
#
ben_thatmust
aaronpk, its cheating because for a while i didn't know mf2 at all, and it actually had several errors as i updated templates
#
ben_thatmust
i'm still not sure its right entirely
#
ben_thatmust
there are probably a few errors here and there
#
GWG
ben_thatmust: SemPress?
#
ben_thatmust
actually, i don't think my whole 2 column thing is really working that well anymore
Gold joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
I'm going to switch back to a single stream
#
millette
is a stream (river of news) necessary for a blog, or is something simpler still acceptable, like my own site?
#
millette
Looking for your impressions - not much to see or talk about I guess.
#
ben_thatmust
its whatever you want really
#
millette
looking forward to moving up the indie web levels. Good night for now
#
Loqi
laila tov!
#
GWG
ben_thatmust: If it makes you feel better, my new starter theme uses a lot of backported code.
#
GWG
ben_thatmust, do you want feedback on your design?
#
GWG
The dual columns are confusing. But what if you excerpted/summarized the articles on the main page?
#
GWG
Also, Recent Posts/Mentions on the right and the stuff on the left duplicate
#
GWG
And ben_thatmust: I obviously must like that style of design.... https://tiny.n9n.us/
#
ben_thatmust
good point about the recents, i forgot about that on the right
#
ben_thatmust
the original idea of the two column was to keep articles on the home page, but shorter notes and things scroll away much faster
#
ben_thatmust
but it just doesn't work for me
#
ben_thatmust
heh, yeah, i do like the whole card-like feel
j12t, simonv3 and snarfed joined the channel
#
GWG
ben_thatmust: Me too, obviously. I'm still refining mine, but I wanted an alternative to SemPress I could put out.

tantek
I think there's an opportunity to add a bunch more
#
@kartik_prabhu
Hey Google+ STOP “auto-awesome”ing my photos, stop “auto-storying” my photos. Just STOP all this auto-fucking-nonsense, will you? #indieweb
(twitter.com/_/status/564669820331769857)
#
tantek
e.g. for tagging (people, location) other posts (photos), area-tagging
#
tantek
searching a social web site, tags, hashtags
#
aaronpk
we're missing some basic location-based stuff too like checking in to places
#
aaronpk
oh man i'm gonna add my drink tracking idea
#
aaronpk
it'll spoil the surprise but it's probably worth it
#
aaronpk
I'm planning on making a bot (or making Loqi do this) which monitors my food and drink consumption
#
aaronpk
if it notices that I have drank more than 2 drinks without having eaten in the past 6 hours, it will reply to my latest drink post and comment "hey you should probably eat soon or you might have a hangover tomorrow"
#
aaronpk
non-human actors in the social network
#
KartikPrabhu
timely. I just shouted at G+ for being a non-human actor
#
aaronpk
the great part is the system that is watching my food+drink does not have to be the same system that I use to post my food+drink
#
aaronpk
and I don't have to grant the watching system access to post to my site or anything, since it will just be posting to its own site and sending me webmentions
#
aaronpk
furthermore it's simple to make one or both sides of this private, using private posts that we've already figured out
#
aaronpk
so I could allow only this system to see my food+drink posts but hide them publicly
#
aaronpk
or the system could send me private webmentions when it replies instead of making them public
#
tantek
aaronpk - awesome - just don't call them "agents" ;)
#
tantek
(unless you're looking to troll for more mid-1990s proposals)
#
tantek
(Apple Knowledge Navigator)
#
aaronpk
I'm hoping I don't have to call them anything
#
aaronpk
because why should a bot be treated any different from a person in the indieweb?
#
aaronpk
or from a cat for that matter
#
tantek
indiebots!
#
GWG
Does this mean everything needs a website?
#
GWG
Such as aaronpk's house, to use an example.
#
tantek
GWG, such as Tom Coates's house to name a real world example
#
tantek
(which just has a twitter right now)
#
GWG
I was thinking aaronpk because I remember him mentioning he was thinking of doing it.
#
GWG
And my thought of posting weather
#
aaronpk
I sure hope his house gets a website soon. He and benward______ are working on some pretty amazing home automation things that would work great if their houses had their own websites
#
GWG
I love following tech like that.
#
aaronpk
interesting that he considers his scale part of his house
#
aaronpk
whereas I consider my scale a way to measure an attribute of me, so the data ends up on my website rather than my house's
#
GWG
Lots of interesting possibilities.
#
tantek

KartikPrabhu, why are the images on https://kartikprabhu.com/article/walk-work hosted on google?
#
KartikPrabhu
cweiske: I don't have a good way to self-host images which also gives me a way to make them responsive. So I am using Google as a stop gap

!tell KartikPrabhu you do know you can disable auto-awesome and auto-enhance from G+ auto upload right? G+ account settings or in the photos app or the g+ app
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
KartikPrabhu
ben_thatmust you can?
#
Loqi
KartikPrabhu: ben_thatmust left you a message 31 seconds ago: you do know you can disable auto-awesome and auto-enhance from G+ auto upload right? G+ account settings or in the photos app or the g+ app
#
KartikPrabhu
must find it
#
KartikPrabhu
even so I don't like the "opt-out" nature
#
ben_thatmust
yeah, i found it pretty quickly in the photos app
#
ben_thatmust
or from online go to G+, then sidenav has settings
#
KartikPrabhu
hm something to do tomorrow. I don't think it affects photos that I hard link from my site
frzn joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
auto-awesome only creates new photos it doesn't touch the originals
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah. I did suspect that.
#
ben_thatmust
the auto-enhance does but they use some side file to store changes so its reversible
#
KartikPrabhu
in nay case, I should work towards hosting my own photos
#
ben_thatmust
there are a number of other apps that auto-backup photos now, Plex does it, i believe dropbox will as well
#
KartikPrabhu
none of them seem to give alternative sizes like G+ does though so I have stuck with it
#
ben_thatmust
ahh, yeah, i would just set my home machine to watch the folder and when it gets something new, run some imagemagic to create alternate sizes then upload to my site
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah such is the hope
#
KartikPrabhu
i know there are tools to do it, I just haven't gotten to implementing them yet
#
KartikPrabhu
hopefully in the near future

barnabywalters
KartikPrabhu: the issues I’ve always found with trying to automate anything to do with photos is that it’s very difficult to build something flexible enough to deal with weird shaped photos and images

#
KartikPrabhu
barnabywalters: I am not trying to automate the layout. I do that by hand
#
barnabywalters
e.g. my Openphoto instance (when it still existed) had loads of issues with panoramas and screenshots
#
KartikPrabhu
just something to host photos on my site would be good
#
barnabywalters
re-creating flickr on your own site, or integrating photos into note posting a la twitter/instagram/aaronpk?
#
KartikPrabhu
barnabywalters: I do post photos in notes, and articles but they are hosted on G+ for responsive image reasons

GWG - for weather are you going to store the METAR report data and then have human readable versions of it? like dates are handled with MF2 ?
Acidnerd joined the channel
#
GWG
bear: I bought an inexpensive internet connected thermometer for local data, and I was going to source some broader data with an API.
#
GWG
But I want human readable versions
#
bear
nods
#
GWG
That's why I was wondering about the markup
#
GWG
So far, the closest thought in the wiki is http://microformats.org/wiki/measure-brainstorming
#
bear
METAR format is text based and kinda readable, so pairing that up with human-readable would work
#
GWG
I'm not putting an anemometer up in this weather though

The issue is you have type of measure and unit of measure as well as value.
#
GWG
Lots of variables
#
GWG
Then how do you do a range?

bear
not sure, channeling tantek ... I should get it added to my site and then figure that out

hm, who's squatting the micro.pub domain?
#
KevinMarks
regsitrars won't sell it, but whois says it's unregistered
#
aaronpk
i have micropub.net already
#
KevinMarks
I suspect the .pub registrar reserved short words without actually registering hem
#
davidmead
hi @aaronpk. after chatting with @benwerd i was wondering how i could i could pull a syndication link into Known via Ownyourgram? /cc @kylewm
#
aaronpk
davidmead: hi! you're already using ownyourgram?
#
davidmead
yeah. but Ben said that “Ownyourgram doesn't give us a syndication link to Instagram”
#
aaronpk
OwnYourGram sends the syndication link in a "syndication" parameter
#
aaronpk
if you log in you'll see the value it would send for your latest instagram photo
#
davidmead
i thought that’s what it did. I sent ben a screenshot of the dashboard for my last photo
#
aaronpk
hm I wonder why he didn't see that then
#
davidmead
this all stems from not seeing comments/likes appearing on my Known blog from Istagram. @kylewm thought is was because they didn’t have u-syndication links
#
aaronpk
that makes sense
#
davidmead
but there’s no Instagram plugin for Known in GitHub afaik, so it hase to be in the core somehwere
#
gRegor`
What is SPDY?
#
Loqi
SPDY is a protocol similar to HTTP with some optimizations to reduce latency and is the basis of HTTP/2 https://indiewebcamp.com/SPDY
#
GWG
gRegor`: Get back to me when Nginx supports HTTP2
eschnou joined the channel
#
gRegor`
knows nothing of nginx
#
bear
GWG technically it does in v1.6+ because a lot of the SPDY changes are the same for HTTP2
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
bear
so this module: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_spdy_module.html works for both SPDY and HTTP2
#
kylewm
davidmead: if it processes the "syndication" param, it would be in the IndiePub plugin

bear: You can guess my intent though
Unifex and KevinMarks_ joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
moved to using excerpts for my homepage
#
ben_thatmust
actually i rather like that, i upped the number of latest posts to show from that
#
aaronpk
ben_thatmust: you should put the excerpt in a "summary" property instead of "content" then, yea?
prtksxna and KevinMarks_ joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
aaronpk, like so?
#
ben_thatmust
i feel like i need to go through an strip out every class and redo all my css
#
aaronpk
yeah! that looks better
#
aaronpk
i'm just imagining this for my future reader :)
#
aaronpk
if I encounter an h-entry with only a summary and no content, I might render a "read more" link myself in the reader
#
ben_thatmust
i have a feeling 2015 is going to be the year of indie-readers
#
aaronpk
or alternately would go fetch the page and pull in the full content
#
aaronpk
that is my goal :)
#
ben_thatmust
hmm, should the "More..." link be outside the content then?
#
aaronpk
yeah probably
#
aaronpk
it's not really part of your summary
#
ben_thatmust
s/content/summary
#
Loqi
ben_thatmust meant to say: hmm, should the "More..." link be outside the summary then?
#
KevinMarks
isn't the more link just the u-url?
#
GWG
ben_thatmust: Told you it would work.
#
ben_thatmust
but without a second copy out of place, there really is nothing showing that this isn't the entire content
#
GWG
I'm looking forward to the first Indieweb reader I can install on my server.
#
aaronpk
that's why it's the "summary" property and not the "content" property
#
ben_thatmust
GWG, can't install woodwind?
#
aaronpk
that indicates it's not the full content
#
ben_thatmust
aaronpk, to computer, but not to a user
#
ben_thatmust
on my site
#
KevinMarks
except that a lot of feeds end up wiht both being the same for a short post
#
GWG
ben_thatmust: I'm waiting for something that works well on my phone. Is it there yet?
#
aaronpk
ben_thatmust: add a "more" link on your site, just not in the "summary" element
#
aaronpk
KevinMarks: no need to include a "summary" property for a short post that you can fit in the content
#
gRegor`
GWG: Woodwind is responsive, so it looks pretty good on mobile.
#
KevinMarks
we both know that, but conditional code is hard and in practice that doesn't happen
#
aaronpk
what do you mean? do most peoplels blogs here have a summary property? i didn't think so

his html parses pretty well with the mf2 parser

speaking of woodwind, what happened to Like and Reply buttons?
#

but as things to watch out for when marking up h-entry too

Anyone using it on a phone right now?

gRegor`
I have not, GWG, just tested by shrinking my browser width to simulate.
#
GWG
I'm just curious how the experience is.
#
ben_thatmust
hmm, kylewm, this is the perfect spot where mp-config makes sense too
#
GWG
I'd need to get an endpoint of some sort up

@kylewm thanks. i’ll check in that plugin
#
ben_thatmust
kylewm just works more reliably than indieconfig i think, heres my endpoint if you need to test :D https://ben.thatmustbe.me/micropub?q=actions
#
aaronpk
ben_thatmust: what is that list of URLs in q=actions?
#
kylewm
what is mp-config?
#
Loqi
mp-config is a method of using a query to a micropub endpoint to allow you indie website to discover user support for webactions https://indiewebcamp.com/mp-config
#
aaronpk
oh weird
#
aaronpk
i was confused about why it was part of the micropub endpoint beacuse it facilitates non-micropub interaction
#
ben_thatmust
doesn't require browser setup for a custom url handler, but it does require log-in to whatever you are viewing it on

aaronpk: yeah I agree with you it was a weird place to shoehorn in the action-url-config stuff...
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
ben_thatmust
i agree, i think the way to really go is ultimately a Configs endpoint
#
kylewm
or just stick more stuff in <link rel=""> on your homepage
MagicFab___ joined the channel
#
aaronpk
i guess it doesn't really hurt if the URLs are public
#
ben_thatmust
i feel like that would grow too quickly
#
ben_thatmust
plus my idea is to make it configurable by clients
#
ben_thatmust
call to config endpoint could allow setting the value for 'like' for example
#
aaronpk
ah yeah
#
ben_thatmust
and then client just has a "set this as my default for likes"
#
aaronpk
that's a great reason to make it its own endpoint
#
kylewm
wait, why wouldn't they store that on the client
#
kylewm
why store it on your endpoint?
#
ben_thatmust
kylewm, if i want to change mp-clients i can do it for every reader by changing it in one spot
#
kylewm
ah ok, cool idea
#
ben_thatmust
to give practical examples to not make pronoun confusion, woodwind can still store so it doesn't poll constantly, but a 'refetch' button to update with the latest

#
GWG
kylewm: How about OPML import support?
#
kylewm
yeah that would be good
#
ben_thatmust
i really like the concept of using a config endpoint for generic configs actually
#
kylewm
GWG: feel free to file GH issues https://github.com/kylewm/woodwind/issues
#
kylewm
(everyone else too of course)
#
ben_thatmust
so any reader/client can store its configs on the user site, not the reader/client
#
aaronpk
that's similar to the idea that a reader shouldn't store your subscription list, your site should store the subscription list
#
kylewm
ben_thatmust: starting to sound like Unhosted stuff
#
ben_thatmust
aaronpk exactly
#
aaronpk
the prototype we built at IWC read your subscription list from a URL on your site. it's not a far stretch to imagine adding a micropub API call to create and delete subscriptions
#
aaronpk
basically just adding URLs to a list
#
KevinMarks
an html list? like blogrolling.com ?
#
ben_thatmust
kylewm, i had the idea when i realized that google stores all my settings across all my apps on their site, they offer an API for app developers to do the same.... well i'd rather have control of my configurations store
#
aaronpk
KevinMarks: yes, here's the one I was using to test http://aaronparecki.com/following
