# 01:13 aaronpk i'm pretty sure I just decided to publish my step count as a count of the number of steps I did between waking up and going to sleep, rather than by any concept of calendar day
# 01:23 aaronpk thinking about turning my top-level URLs (/articles, /notes, etc) into "collections", meaning they would have no significance on the underlying posts, and would be a sort of progressive enhancement rather than core to how any of my site works
# 01:23 aaronpk any of my posts could be added to any of the collections, they'd no longer be limited by "post type"
snarfed joined the channel
# 01:25 aaronpk best example of this is my travel page, since I'm finding I want to include other things there such as certain events, or long bike rides
# 01:26 aaronpk also thinking about making a new one "health" which includes runs, longer bike rides, pushups, sleep, steps
# 01:26 aaronpk yeah, i may not actually publish anything called "exercise" tho
# 01:27 aaronpk and will probably drop "metrics" too since that was really more of a technical reason that existed
# 01:27 tantek (going real deep here in the indieweb philosophical discussions)
# 01:27 aaronpk the other nice thing about thinking of it this way, is that I can put off the entire concept of that for now and just focus on individual posts and my /all page!
# 01:37 tantek just noticed that you have 6 LINK rels in the header on that post, but none of them is webmention
# 01:38 aaronpk oh! yeah, can't quite remember the reason I dropped it from the HTTP header
# 01:47 Loqi [mention] Ben Werdmüller posted 'Facebook-style behavior is
# 01:49 tantek do we need to put a big banner at the top of the home page saying something like ANNUAL INDIEWEBCAMP IN ONE MONTH! JOIN US!
# 01:49 tantek I feel like some form of seasonal promotion makes sense, but I'm not sure how to make it work with the current design, and when it's appropriate

# 01:53 tantek alright I checked the gh issues and I can't find the answer - does Bridgy Publish support POSSEing comments to Instagram?
# 01:56 snarfed iirc we've looked at this before and their docs say it's only for advertisers, or something similar
# 01:56 snarfed don't quote me. aaronpk might remember. i suspect it's either in the wiki or a bridgy issue (i know you searched)
# 01:57 tantek I remember aaronpk trying and gettng frustrated by the comment approval thing
# 01:58 tantek also for some reason I thought aaronpk's site was POSSEing his posts from ownyourgram to Twitter
# 01:59 tantek I mean I thought p3k would do that automatically, as part of handling the micropub post from ownyourgram
# 02:01 tantek KevinMarks: why do you bother to markup h-feed then?
# 02:02 tantek the problem may be too much markup, not too little ;)
# 02:02 snarfed "my h-feed has no name" sounds like a hot new indieweb pop song
# 02:02 tantek I like how "unmung" is now really KevinMarksPlayground
# 02:10 ben_thatmustbeme Indeed. Tantek you see the debate on a-x-client-id vs a-x-created-by. There has to be a better term
# 02:11 tantek ben_thatmustbeme: what does that have to do with the wiki?!?
# 02:12 rbrt you guys plan on having any events in ny anytime soon?
# 02:12 tantek rbrt, GWG is organizing IndieWebCamp NYC July 11-12!
# 02:13 rbrt are these for advanced users? because I am kind of just getting started
# 02:14 tantek for anyone that wants to get or work on their own webiste
# 02:14 Loqi tantek meant to say: for anyone that wants to get or work on their own website
# 02:17 tantek KevinMarks: that's partly because we're still fixing the parsers's backcompat parsing
# 02:18 tantek if you want to debug that you're going to have to actually view the markup manually to dig into it
# 02:20 tantek we very likely have more WP backcompat analysis to do
# 02:20 tantek I alread added some proposed improvements to microformats.org/wiki/h-entry back-compat parsing
# 02:20 tantek nothing for h-feed yet though - that likely still requires some analysis
# 02:44 kylewm anyone know a hacky way to posse comments to instagram? starting to be kind of a big itch for me
# 02:47 kylewm maybe I can get further than last time, now that i know what csrf is :)
# 02:48 ben_thatmustbeme Hmm. Does it work without JavaScript? You can always do something with mechanize. It's pretty hacky though. Any ui change could break it
# 02:49 tantek perhaps sort of like the original Google Maps "API" that someone reverse engineered by looking at their AJAX requests

# 03:14 tantek also updated my posting UI to list all the in-reply-to URLs (e.g. for multireplies and/or POSSE threading), and prefetch/display webmention endpoint URLs to note which webmentions will get sent
# 03:16 ben_thatmustbeme side note, getting back to the indie-cards thing. it works well as a specification of what we are all basically already doing

# 03:18 tantek snarfed - that was far more debugging than I expected (from our last in-person conversation). had several bugs to fix.
# 03:20 tantek new #cassis.js is_html_type function coming out of it too
# 03:23 snarfed i don't have a separate feed for them vs articles. just the home page
# 03:24 tantek just not that many notes then? mostly articles?
# 03:24 snarfed actually i may not even distinguish notes vs articles at all
cmhobbs joined the channel
# 03:25 tantek snarfed: hmm - not seeing any "notes" since 2015-04-01. a couple of name/title-less photo posts before that
# 03:27 snarfed ah ok. visually there are plenty, on the front page, right?
# 03:33 tantek wow @adactio has become nothing but IFTTT POSSE tweets!
FergusL joined the channel
# 04:10 KevinMarks__ Blows up on a lot of hfeeds though, as many don't have name set so get content
# 04:12 tantek pretty sure we have a issue on not implying p-name on back compat parsing
# 04:15 tantek KevinMarks: if you'd like, since that issue was resolved unanimously at the mf2 dev meetup, you're welcome to implement it in mf2py
# 04:18 KevinMarks or it could be we didn't actually define the hfeed mapping in mf2py
# 04:18 tantek even if you did define it, you will likely need to fix that issue
# 04:19 GWG Next week, I need to solve the venue issue one way or another for IWC
# 04:22 tantek atom has tons of things no one actually used in practice

# 04:27 tantek oh? how are you representing them? concatenating into a p-name?
# 04:32 tantek are they basically sticking a brief summary in there?
# 04:35 tantek probably because they gave it a bigger text box than just one line
KevinMarks, endi_ and endi__ joined the channel
# 05:00 tantek but I'm really confused by acegiak's replies underneath - they seem to be just her h-card?
# 05:00 kylewm yeah, acegiak's header has an e-content on it and it's inside the h-entry, so it's picked up as the body of the reply
# 05:01 tantek but the (kylewm.com) link immediately before it works!
# 05:09 tantek unfortunately my post is a leaf/edge since I don't process/display incoming webmentions yet (just queuing up at webmention io), nor do I pass them along
# 05:09 tantek ok I think I'm declaring victory on getting automatic webmentions to in-reply-to URLs working
# 05:10 tantek kylewm: your relative webmention URL endpoint took a bit more code :)
# 05:10 kylewm oh sweet, yeah I believe I made it relative cause someone else was testing something, and then i left it that way
# 05:10 tantek #cassis.js is getting a new get_absolute_uri() function
# 05:12 kylewm the link is to a presentation from 2013, but it redirects to a presentation from 2014
# 05:12 tantek is that a caseorganic URL? yeah I think there were some odd redir things with those
# 05:13 tantek kylewm: um, not using phpmf2 for that, but rather DOMDocument, loadHTML, DOMXPath
# 05:13 tantek since it's *only* a pass to get rel webmention
KevinMarks_ joined the channel
# 05:16 tantek all the # links from acegiak's comment all the way down all link to that 404 URL
# 05:17 kylewm lol, I don't even have a guess why that's happening. thank you for pointing it out though, i wll check it out
# 05:22 kylewm oh duh, it's <a href="h">#</a> becuase i did url[0]
# 05:22 tantek so when your reply posts receive a webmention of a reply to them, they pass it along to the original in-reply-to?
# 05:24 kylewm the post that receives a comment just re-sends webmentions the same way it would if i edited the content of the post
# 05:24 tantek oh! then the receiver of that webmention pulls in its new replies
# 05:24 kylewm pfefferle shared a link to the wiki that discussed the idea in at least 2013, but i think acegiak coined salmentions recently
KevinMarks__ joined the channel
# 05:26 kylewm i love that it doesnt involve any new inventions, just a logical extension of the way comments already were working
# 05:27 tantek it did involve the first real world consuming code of "p-comment"
# 05:28 acegiak blackwool got alarmed cause I just started giggling out of nowhere
# 05:28 kylewm tantek: I think aaronpk was using them in monocle to show comment counts already
# 05:29 tantek acegiak: does this mean if you resend your webmentions from replies that your extra h-card inside the post goes away?
# 05:30 tantek kylewm: wait - did all this just happen in the past 48hours?!?
# 05:32 tantek acegiak++ ok I'm really impressed by the frequency of you posting on your own site. well done.
# 05:33 kylewm looks like barnaby, sandeep, and pfefferle from 2013
# 05:33 acegiak kylewm++ salmentions working! today just keeps getting better and better
# 05:36 tantek acegiak, is that post the first mention of salmentions? or did you mention it in IRC earlier?
# 05:37 tantek um, let's just say Google is too slow and too shallow
# 05:39 tantek acegiak: ironically first reference I can find on IRC is kylewm referring to "acegiak's salmentions proposal"
# 05:40 acegiak I might have said "salmon-like mentions" or something equally awkward previously
# 05:40 tantek but even there it says "I suggested #indieweb salmentions" which implies you mentioned it earlier!
# 05:41 acegiak I'd suggested salmon like upstream webmention forwarding previously
# 05:46 tantek kylewm: do you remember the context of that comment?
# 05:46 acegiak tantek: still a reference to earlier conversations, sorry.
# 05:51 acegiak tantek: That's definitely not an official pokemon.
# 05:52 tantek alright, looks like your post is the first term use - nicely done
loic_m joined the channel
# 05:54 tantek hilarious - glad I didn't discourage you too much (though it did take us a year to get back to it!)
# 05:56 tantek the last two steps are the explicit sending and the handling of the salmention
# 05:56 acegiak tantek: I've definitely mentioned it occasionally since then but the main problem is that the wordpress webmention semantic linkbacks code is a bit too much for me to get a foothold on the problem
# 05:57 tantek one year from concept to "salmon-like upstream" description, then another year to term creation, then mere hours to implementation
# 06:00 acegiak kylewm's platform appears to be brilliant for rapid iteration
# 06:00 tantek yeah it's kind of amazing how fast he's built stuff
# 06:00 tantek of course, they're going for a broader / more diverse user base, so different priorities
# 06:01 tantek and I have a feeling that once aaronpk finishes his current restructuring of p3k, he's going to be rapid iterating as well
# 06:03 acegiak I can iterate on some things quickly, but this, not so much
# 06:05 tantek kylewm: when did you get salmentions working?
# 06:10 kylewm tantek: yes, that was the first one that worked myself-to-myself
# 06:11 tantek looks like you handled receiving mine and passing it along to yourself just fine!
# 06:12 acegiak but your parser doesn't appear to pick it up just yet
# 06:13 kylewm hmm, yeah so the comment content is p-summary, it looks like I am only checking for p-content or e-content
lukebrooker joined the channel
# 06:14 acegiak actually I can also make it so it's not got the "kyle says xx/xx/xx" in there
# 06:14 acegiak but I should go for my walk first while the sun is still out
# 06:16 tantek now I'm tempted to try to get backcompat pingback sending working too, so I can properly comment automatically from my site to eschnou's original Testing indieweb federation post
# 06:19 GWG acegiak: I said I just brought over the code. It needs a rewrite
# 06:27 GWG acegiak: Just wanted to mention. Vacation is over tomorrow night. Heading home to work on it.

# 15:17 GWG acegiak: What about the Semantic Linkbacks code?
# 15:21 acegiak GWG: I'm working on getting it to parse child comments for salmention handling
# 15:23 acegiak it's just a mention passed upstream for comment chains
# 15:26 gRegorLove Ah, better. Is it just a regular webmention then, no additional parameter?
# 15:26 aaronpk it's not actually anything different than what has been described before, just a cute name :)
# 15:27 aaronpk like, if your post is updated, you should send a webmention again. it's just saying that you should also send webmentions when your post is updated because you displayed a comment there
# 15:30 GWG acegiak, would that belong in Semantic Linkbacks or Webmentions then?
# 15:31 acegiak GWG: What I'm doing is the parsing of the child comments
# 15:32 GWG I have trouble finding the best place for things

# 16:52 dym_cx make what you will use and use what you make"
# 16:56 dym_cx i'll go see the page now
# 16:56 aaronpk yes, it is useful to have a single term to reference the concept, often used as a hashtag or in a title of a post
# 17:00 aaronpk also useful is when the term can be used as a noun as well as a verb
# 17:01 dym_cx the bast analogy (apart from autofellatio) is "be part of your kids life"
wolftune joined the channel
# 17:08 dym_cx "build your own castle"?
# 17:09 aaronpk the equivalent would be "eat your own dogfood" -> selfdogfooding
# 17:10 acegiak Ok well I have wordpress reading child comments for salmentions. I consider that enough achievement for one night, I'mma hit the sack
# 17:12 aaronpk there's gotta be a German word for this idea, right? just a bunch of smaller words slammed together?
# 17:18 dym_cx i'm not sure the concept of eating food of ones dog is even a thing in germany
# 17:18 dym_cx making food for the dog by yourself – sure
