snarfed: I think it would be a useful little plugin. Wondering if I should make it standalone or write it into my location plugin.

gRegorLove
GWG: My notes interface allows me to specify a timezone, otherwise defaults to Central. I need to update it to default to the last-used TZ

gRegorLove
aaronpk: You mean your URLs are based on *your* local time (Pacific), or the users?
#
GWG
Are we talking about user level or post level timezones?
#
GWG
I was initially asking about post level.
KevinMarks_ joined the channel
#
aaronpk
Yes, per post, the time and time zone is based on my actual location
#
aaronpk
Not always Pacific
#
aaronpk
I have a separate API that my Micropub endpoint queries to find the timezone to use for the specific post

This is also why I don't think webmentions are a perfect solution. I should not have to ping anything when I post it reply.

rhiaro
Oh. Hey. Twitter tells you if someone has 'retweeted your retweet' rather than just telling the original tweeter. But if I want to repost a retweet myself I can't do that... I can repost the original, but the person via whom I saw it won't get notified.
#
rhiaro
If I want to do it via bridgy, that is
#
rhiaro
Because the retweet I'm reposting doesn't have its own URL
#
rhiaro
As far as I can tell, anyway
#
rhiaro
Has anyone discussed/documented this anywhere yet?
#
GWG
rhiaro: I think you just identified a salmention
#
rhiaro
hmmmm
#
rhiaro
good point
#
rhiaro
But specifically this is a problem with POSSEing reposts to Twitter right now
#
GWG
acegiak has been working on that lately.
#
rhiaro
I guess the issue is just that retweets don't have their own URL
#
@sirmlivesey
@chestertweet The next set to tie the web together is this, https://indiewebcamp.com/marginalia Webmetions tied into referencing.
(twitter.com/_/status/615174378494496768)
#
GWG
Bridgy solves that by giving everything a Bridgy url, I believe
#
snarfed
rhiaro: retweets actually do have their own url on twitter.com
#
@chestertweet
RT @sirmlivesey: @chestertweet The next set to tie the web together is this, https://indiewebcamp.com/marginalia Webmetions tied into referencing.
(twitter.com/_/status/615174599731453953)
#
snarfed
it's just not obvious because it redirects
#
snarfed
as examples, check out the "retweet" links under https://www.brid.gy/twitter/rhiaro#publishes
#
rhiaro
If I'm looking at someone's timeline and there's a retweet, how do I find the URL for the retweet?
#
snarfed
rhiaro: may not be easy
#
rhiaro
Oh okay, I thought maybe I was missing something
#
snarfed
you can get it from the api, or e.g. http://twitter-activitystreams.appspot.com/ , but ui-wise i'm not sure it's exposed
#
rhiaro
I know bridgy gives everything a url, but that doesn't help for something only retweeted on twitter
#
snarfed
interestingly, twitter gets this right on its own. if you favorite or retweet a retweet, it understands that and doesn't think you just faved/RTed the original tweet
#
snarfed
(you can tell when you get email notifs that someone faved RTed your RT)
#
rhiaro
yeah, I know twitter manages it internally
#
snarfed
in other news, PSA: activitystreams-unofficial has been renamed granary! if you have a fork, you'll want to update your git remote url. https://github.com/snarfed/granary
#
rhiaro
That's why I realised I was about to repost something but the person I saw retweet it wouldn't get notfied
#
Loqi
slack/tantek: Rhiaro, could you rephrase that as a "how do I ...?" question?
#
rhiaro
tantek: How do I repost a retweet and syndicate it back to twitter as a retweet of a retweet, rather than a retweet of an original?

kylewm I don't understand that thread at all
#
kylewm
weird, that seemed to work^
snarfed1 joined the channel
#
kylewm
apparenty twitter gave me the "RT @tarr11" text as part of the tweet content, I did not do any processing to add that stuff
#
tantek__
it sounds like tarr11 does not want to have to have his site send webmentions maybe?
#
tantek__
one "passive" solution to that is for the receiving server to synthesize incoming webmentions from HTTP referer headers
#
tantek__
thus when a human clicks a link on a reply back to the original, the original sees the reply as a referer and sends itself a webmention accordingly, then handles it as it would handle any incoming webmention
#
kylewm
tantek__: no I don't understand it either, it was just the first RT I had handy in my reader
#
tantek__
source=reply&target=original
#
tantek__
kylwm the more interesting question is the oddness you pointed out
#
tantek__
namely Twitter giving you the RT @tarr11 as part of the tweet content
#
tantek__
should you really be showing that just as inline text? or is there a better display for showing that you reposted a retweet, rather than just reposted the original tweet?
#
tantek__
I'll note that @dkreuz ("author" of the retweet) is not linked anywhere on your post, and original tweet author is not displayed/linked at all!
#
tantek__
(which both seem like missing post context / info)
#
kylewm
well, dkreuz is linked at the top
#
kylewm
do you mean that his twitter handle is not linked?
#
tantek__
kylewm - dkreuz's personal site is linked at the top - where you can't find the retweet that you're reposting
#
tantek__
@dkreuz (where you *can* find the retweet that you're reposting) is not linked from your repost
#
tantek__
see the usability problem?
#
kylewm
it's linked at the bottom, at u-repost-of
#
kylewm
with a retweet icon
#
kylewm
but yes I see the usability problem
#
tantek__
that's even stranger. a repost icon down there after the post usually means a repost *button* (i.e. a webaction) that if you click, will repost YOUR repost
#
tantek.com
edited /Twitter (+226) "/* POSSE Reposts of Tweets */ add kylewm example repost of a retweet"
(view diff)
#
kylewm
hmm, not sure i agree, it means approximately the same thing that it does on twitter when the repost icon is highlighted ... i.e. "this thing was reposted"
#
tantek__
kylewm++ the nice thing is we finally have a real world example of a repost of a retweet where we can find these challenges and ask questions!
#
Loqi
kylewm has 185 karma
#
kylewm
but suffice it to say, it's very difficult to cram all the data you want to convey in a repost, in a visually pleasing manner
#
tantek__
kylewm - except Twitter at that point in their UI indicates "this thing was reposted by YOU" (the reader), using *color*, instead of indicating just "this thing was reposted"
#
tantek__
and the big difference is what happens if you *click* the icon/button
#
tantek__
on Twitter, it does a repost (or tries to undo your previous repost)
#
kylewm
bbiab
#
tantek__
on yours it clicks through the retweet permalink which redirects to the original tweet, which is confusing

bret, could you reply to ^^^ with how you are sending webmentions from your static site?
#
bret
manually
#
bret
never got automated webmentions working well enough to leave unattended
#

I thought maybe you had a clever github commit hook or something
#
bret
i send PuSH automatically with webhooks
#
bret
(that was super easy)
#
rhiaro
kylewm: How do you find the retweet URL?
#
bret
I'm rewriting my micropub server to do do webmentions
#
rhiaro
doesn't really want to deal with twitter API any time soon
#
kylewm
rhiaro: woodwind subscribes to a url from twitter-activitystreams.appspot.com
#
kylewm
which doesn't do any special handling of reposts, afaik, so they just show up like tweets with RT @originalAuthor: at the front
#
rhiaro
thanks kylewm (and snarfed!) I'll look into this more later (at a conference)

#
aaronpk
oh snarfed said that already
#
aaronpk
is catching up on logs
#
rhiaro
Because my reposting is semi-manual, ie a Quill hack :)
#
rhiaro
Maybe I need to work out how to make a browser extension to add retweet URLs into the UI
#
rhiaro
Or probably just need to look at twitter-activitystreams.appspot.com properly
#
@dkreuz
@tarr11 I understand. With GitHub alone you will probably achieve #indieweb level 2, but for level 3 you'll need some kind of processing.

#
kylewm
so i guess we need a service like bridgy's webmentions for blogs, but for any PuSH enabled mf2 blog? where it would send webmentions automatically for new posts

gives kylewm an IFTTT channel for webmentions

#
aaronpk
i wonder if we could get IFTTT to add h-entry as a channel
#
kylewm
once again frustrated by how awesome IFTTT could be if it let you plug in your own services
#
aaronpk

yeah IFTTT is extremely controlling

@tarr11 For sending webmentions, this will be the way to go (lvl2). For receiving them you need to know who mentions you to visit their page

@dkreuz doesn't a webmention server solve the receive problem? Webmention.io and http://webmention.herokuapp.com seem to handle that
(twitter.com/_/status/615207466989547520)
#
@dkreuz
@tarr11 Of course you can rely on external servers. Something must receive the webmention. You could then incorporate their content via JS.

Facebook's "share posts" are dynamic / hot-inlined! That is, if you share someone's post, and then afterwards they edit it, your shared copy (if it even is a copy) is edited too! Example: (not sure this is a public or any-logged-in-user link) https://www.facebook.com/shares/view?id=10101755232551693

kylewm I don't understand what that means - bridgy already accepts and sends webmentions right?
#
kylewm
tantek: conversation from earlier -- bridgy sends webmentions on the behalf of hosted blogs (for blogspot.com, wordpress.com, and tumblr)... snarfed was talking about extending it to support any blog, just needs a text box to enter the blog name
#
kylewm
and optionally, could use indieauth to verify that they are actually the owner of the blog being signed up
#
tantek
kylewm wait what? bridgy *sends* webmentions *from* hosted blogs? as in you post on your hosted blog, Bridgy detects this (polling?), and then sends webmentions to whoever you linked to?

that Facebook story got me thinking: is 'identity' necessarily tied to a specific name?
#
cuibonobo
many trans people use their deadname at work but their new name in other circles
#
cuibonobo
i'm not sure how indieweb could accommodate that besides just making a new site
#
KartikPrabhu
cuibonobo: change the h-card on the site ?
#
KartikPrabhu
if your domain name is yourname then it might be more of an issue
#
KartikPrabhu
but indieweb does not require that
#
cuibonobo
in many cases they use both names simultaneously, depending on the context of who they are interacting with
#
KartikPrabhu
hmmm yeah that is an interesting problem...

#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: so if one wishes to change their name they have to get a new domain?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: no - that was not the question

tantek
the question was one of simultaneously using multiple identities
#
KartikPrabhu
hmm fair enough
#
tantek
for changing your name, sure, just change your h-card
#
tantek
cuibonobo: that makes sense. is the term "deadname" informal or commonly used to refer to that? and what is the "new" name called? would post-trans name be accurate?

welcome back bridgy! :P

thanks cuibonobo - appreciate the background and research
#
cuibonobo
using a new domain name to encompass your new identity still has a big problem tho: WHOIS will snitch on you
#
cuibonobo
this is especially problematic if you decide to switch identities because of safety concerns
#
tantek
yes, WHOIS disclosures have lots of problems
#
tantek
wondering if we should document that on /personal-domain or something - as an issue
#
cuibonobo
i think it's mentioned in /diversity

#
tantek
it's worth documenting it as a general issue IMO

I was going to leave my CSS3 rainbow background as my top post, but decided to post about that Medium article https://twitter.com/t/status/615243770917965824

tantek, yes its a bug i believe, but honestly they keep making problems like that
#
ben_thatmustbeme
its because mobile web viewing takes 3rd place. i guess the UI guys only really pay attention to desktop web or the mobile app
#
tantek
supposedly - yet their mobile site is quite good
#
tantek
I don't find bugs often
#
ben_thatmustbeme
for the most part, it is

a thing i'm currently struggling with that might be missing from indieweb post types: presentations / slides
#
tantek
cuibonobo: aaronpk has them!
#
tantek
my presentations / slides are still part of my non-Falcon static archives on my site. so they're not part of any "post" in any "stream".
#
tantek
aaronpk figured out how to make them work / make sense as post types
csarven joined the channel
#
cuibonobo
oh?? i don't have any presentation-making software so i made a deck at slides.com
#
cuibonobo
and now i'm struggling to save the data somehow
#
tantek
we've been making HTML presentations with shower.js so they're 100% static web based (can put them anywhere in a folder and they just work)
#
tantek
slides in HTML etc.
#
cuibonobo
i've never heard of shower.js. will look into it
#
tantek
cuibonobo: all my indiewebcamp presentations are done in it
#
tantek
here's an example: http://tantek.com/2014/175/t1/pdf14-why-need-indieweb-video-slides (video and slides link inside)
#
cuibonobo
aha. excellent
#
cuibonobo
so the slides are `section` blocks within a single HTML page. awesome

ben_thatmustbeme - I went ahead and wrote this up separately for displays of reposts on posts in particular: https://indiewebcamp.com/reposts
#
tantek
all: if you show repost responses in a footer or as part of comments on your posts, add yourself https://indiewebcamp.com/reposts#IndieWeb_Examples (I know there are a lot more of you than listed there)
#
tantek
and with that I'm heading out for the rest of the afternoon to spend some time outdoors!

i've been really enjoying the html slides
#

it's also nice that it's a totally self-contained thing

yeah, i really like that

I make a post for my presentations which contains a link to the slides http://aaronparecki.com/presentations

A great initiative that anyone interested in the Open Content & Web should participate in http://indiewebcamp.com/2015 / Portland + Brighton #win

#
cuibonobo
would it be possible to have the slides embedded into a presentation permalink page?
#
cuibonobo
or does the shower.js stuff interfere too much with other page elements?
#
aaronpk
probably would conflict. it kind of takes over everything
#
aaronpk
would work in an iframe tho
