#acegiakKevinMarks: Play is the only available word for games so in the context of scrobbles it makes sense to use it as the term for games when other words are better for other media
#acegiakall interactions with games are plays but not all listens of songs are plays and not all watching of films etc are plays

#Loqipin or pinning is a feature that allows the author to choose a post to put at the top of their profile (or homepage) which is then called a pinned or sticky post https://indiewebcamp.com/pin
#rhiaro!tell aaronpk, kylewm How do readers sort/order posts? Do they keep them in the order they find them in a feed, or sort them themselves by published date? (ie. If I have a pinned post, I don't want it to be pinned for people consuming my feed via a reader, only for people viewing my site. I'm guessing readers sort posts themselves by pubdate so would insert a pinned post chronologically as normal)
#GWGNeed to refine it a bit more, but I think I got the 'simple' presentation that fits with the _s minimalism I am trying for.
#acegiakGWG: also, I'm trying to work out how to make sure that salmention comments don't duplicate when update mentions come through multiple times. Do you know how semantic linkbacks stores the permalink?
#GWGsemantic_linkbacks_canonical - the canonical source url
#acegiakbut at the same time a couple of people have posted items with FUTURE published dates which have effectively pinned them to the top of my reader until that time
#rhiaroacegiak: yeah I've done that in the past and they've stuck to the top of woodwind which is really annoying so I stopped that at once
#rhiaroFor a while I was doing travel plans and events only based on the date of the thing, rather than the published date of the post. I fixed it so they have separate published dates now.
#rhiaroWhich is more useful, because I do want to post *when I make a plan* as well as when the plan/event will be carried out
#rhiaroAnd I have special feeds, /travel and /calendar, which actually sort by the event date rather than the published date
#rhiaroSo if people *want* my calendar stuck to the top of their reader they still have that option by subscribing to /travel or /calendar instead..
#ben_thatmustbemefridays usually tend to be slow around here though i guess

#kylewmrhiaro: woodwind uses published dates the first time it polls a feed ... to backfill old posts. for new posts from then on, it uses the received date. so if there was a future-dated post in the first pull, i guess it would be stuck to the top of the feed :/ I should fix that

#gRegorLoveOops. Probably my fault. At a certain point I started using the initial revision and just updating dates so it's easy to copy/paste without cutting out RSVPs, etc.
#aaronpkah yeah. i'm just not sure how to break this cycle then
#gRegorLoveI have no idea what I will work on at IWC, but I think I'm on schedule to have my site moved over to ProcessWire framework, including webmention+vouch support. Pretty excited about that.
#aaronpkthey're getting all grown up now, no more ad-hoc show up with a big group and do drink tickets :)
#tantekGWG, also - if an in-between Wednesday works better than any of the "on" Wednesdays, do it then.
#tantekbetter to have at least one HWC NYC a month than none at all because the "on" Wednesdays didn't work out!
#aaronpkso i'm gonna have to reserve the back room, which means a drink minimum slightly larger than our previous tabs, so I hope we get more people to show up to the preparty!
#aaronpki'm trying to find what they have in common to avoid needing to make separate post type classes/templates for each
#tantekthat's good that you have a list of "exits" as it were, however, I still think you should start with designing from the *entrance* of your flow. Your home page, at the top, either *just* a "new post" button, or *one text box* with a "Post" button below it.
#tantekand then try to figure out what it is you need to add to that, why and when (e.g. conditionally based on what you might type into the box)
#aaronpki don't really want to do anything with my posting interface right now
#aaronpkthat's a whole different story. i'm going to stick to posting from quill for now.

#aaronpkright now i'm just trying to figure out how to render new HTML for all of my posts
#tantekhere's my premise, that without understanding the full flow from UX -> post output, you won't know how much explicit markup you need when for different kinds of posting behavior
#aaronpkhmm, but I'm not changing any of the input. I'm still using Quill, Monocle, Teacup, Ownyourgram, and other automatic import scripts to create posts
#aaronpkit doesn't right now, but if I build a posting interface into the new one it likely will
#aaronpki would much rather have only one way posts are created: the micropub endpoint
#tanteksure, yet the design of that endpoint should be driven by what UX works the best.
#aaronpkright, but i am also not writing the micropub endpoint right now. right now I have a pile of source files of these posts, and I need to turn them into sensible HTML
#tantekI vaguely remember rhiaro doing some analysis about how type-less primary posts make general sense, and yet *responses* may in practice be explicitly typed from the start, since they typically each have their own explicit UI
#tantekkind of wondering if that got captured somewhere. rhiaro?
#aaronpki think ideally i would have a generic post template, and have things added to it depending on what's in the post. e.g. if there's a photo, show an <img> tag. if there's a route, show the map.
#tantekthe limitation of the one generic template is in the UX of the result - all the posts start looking the same
#rhiaroThough probably a bit too much logic in my templates
#tantekthe motivation for making different templates should not come from a notion of abstract types, but rather, to provide a richer UX for what you're posting
#tantekthat's why you have to start with sketching that richer UX if you really want something like that
#rhiaroPeople aren't going to click things, so no one would actually see what I like. Maybe it doesn't matter cos it's for the benefit of the original author, but I'm not sure
#rhiaroBased on I never click on links of what people have liked, but always feel like I'm missing out seeing what it was
#kylewmaaronpk: I'm trying out different markup than I was using before... now the top-level h-entry looks like it's by the author of the reposted thing

#tantekaaronpk - do your Twitter faves show images inline or not?
#tantekI don't think it's actually doing the *exact* same thing
#tantekI think likes tend to show more "summary"-like information of the thing being liked. Short amount of text or title. Smaller thumbnail of the image. etc.
#tantekrhiaro: re: http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2015-06-19/line/1434713754327 that's an interesting approach. As I keep off-and-on working on /event posts for Falcon, I keep coming back to having both the event itself, which is an h-event, and comments / (activity?) on that event, such as the first comment "created the event" (based on FB UI)
#tantekrhiaro: that way that first "comment" would show up in my main home page stream, as all my replies do
#tantekeven if the event was nowhere to be found because all it has is a dt-start in the future
#KongalooshI get everything from my instagram, and can tweet.C:
#tantekrhiaro I'm pretty sure that having such a separate "event" and "comment that says created the event" posts solves the problem you were running into.
#tantekrhiaro: I was thinking that too, except even in FB, that "create the event" comment 1) has a permalink, 2) can be liked, 3) can be commented upon. So it sounds more like a full fledged post to me - again, no need to make up a new term "activity" in practice.
#rhiaroSo activities is just two posts instead of one
#tantekI'm pretty convinced that the only people who think "activity" is necessary as a concept are not actually building this stuff for the open web and using it.
#rhiaroAn activity can have a permalink etc just a redundant name
#rhiaroI don't want two posts for all my travel plans
#tantekstill doesn't justify the existence of the term
#tantekIt's good that you're focusing on post presentation, as that's the hardest and most important thing to get right, that then drives the other things.
#aaronpkalso realizing there is a big difference in how i want the posts to look when in a list vs on their permalink pages
#tantekkylewm: is this not related to that already solved parsing issue?
#GWGI've been working on parts of it, as I'm partly responsible.
#kylewmtantek: which issue do you have in mind? this one is slightly tricky to detect since the e-content is just an <img> tag -- there's no way to detect that the content is contained within the name

#gRegorLove"Could not find a tweet to reply to. Check that your post has an in-reply-to link a Twitter URL or to an original post that publishes a rel-syndication link to Twitter."
#tantekmy POSSE code auto-publishes to Twitter for non-tweet replies
#aaronpkthat seems reasonable. I just realized I have to change how I handle it in order to drop post types
wolftune joined the channel
#aaronpkright now my articles are markdown (with optional html of course), but everything else cannot have HTML in the content, so every other post type goes through an escaping process
#tantekright now my notes are HTML-escaped plain text, and my articles are HTML with explicit markup
#tantekthe reason is, that way the only people that see those POSSE tweet replies are people that follow both me and the author of the original indieweb post, and thus have a decent chance of having seen their indieweb post in some other form
#kylewmtotally makes sense and makes it tricky to pick any one way with bridgy publish.
#tantekkylewm: the safe (forgiving, less noisy) thing would be to pick variant 2 for bridgy publish
#tantekas most replies written by people only really makes sense in the context of the original
#tantekand if people know they can depend on that behavior (with the scoping @-name in front) they may be more comfortable just using it, knowing that they're not spamming everyone
