They do actually understand open source and can set it up right, but I think their default boilerplate is like that

I'm also bothered that the default consulting agreements startups get from lawyers seem to be copypasta from Oracle circa 1985

good morning
#
ben_thatmustbeme
hmmm, so this is interesting. I noticed that the php-mf2-shim returns a relative value for a post not absolute
#
ben_thatmustbeme
that should be fine right?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
wonders if his code hanldes that correctly.....

it worked! MWUHAHAHAHA

preferring originals
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i was parsing out the permashortcitation but it was actually getting a good amount of error
#
ben_thatmustbeme
I'm thinking i'll just add in parsing out syndicated copies and then if I pull in anything (context or comment) i'll store their syndication links and can deduplicate that way
#
kylewm
i only dedupe based on u-syndication in the original right now

i'm having a hard time deciding if my notes-with-images should be a photo post on facebook
#
cuibonobo
it seems like you can also create a status post with an `object_attachment`, which is just the ID of an existing album picture
#
cuibonobo
but it's hard to tell if there will be a UX difference?

#
cuibonobo
according to [this](http://wenda.baba.io/questions/2853898/post-message-with-picture-to-facebook-page-feed-using-graph-api.html), using `object_attachment` will result in UI similar to sharing a link (a small thumbnail with the object's title and a summary)
#
cuibonobo
so it seems like Facebook doesn't bother with the notes-with-photos vs. photos-with-captions distinction
#
cuibonobo
if it has an image, it's a photo post. full stop.
#
kylewm
cuibonobo: I know I have two different ways of posting fb photos from my site
#
kylewm
one sec, i'll look at the code
#
kylewm
set fb post_type to 'photo' and set the 'url' parameter to the photo url, or you can create a regular post, and set the 'picture' param to the photo url
#
cuibonobo
see, i think that's where my confusion comes from… I keep seeing people mention the 'picture' key, but it doesn't appear in the API ref: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/user/feed/
