KevinMarks: in the past several years I have been very impressed by his talks, and his general much more positive outlook
#
kevinmarks
that's fair. His talks are great, yes.
#
tantek
in-person too - having chatted with him briefly after / near his talks, it's clear he has a much more positive outlook and attitude in general. it was really great to see.

cweiske: likely the marketing folks were being "agile" instead of dealing with corporate IT to use their "official" domain
#
tantek
doesn't want to think about how many domains Mozilla has registered

KevinMarks: and previously, even the FBI lost control of domains: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-32929309
#
tantek
(not QR code related though)
#
kevinmarks
why is the fbi not using a .gov?
#
tantek
likely same problem. centralized IT bureaucracy makes it easier to "just" register new domains instead for new task forces
#
tantek
gov and big enterprise aren't that different in that way

KevinMarks: we were talking about document /audio and /podcast publishing examples where there is an associated "cover art" or "poster image" with the audio track

cool - will let you document them on /podcast when you get the chance

hm, not sure where it fits
#
kevinmarks
might make more sense in /audio
#
tantek
sure, both make sense
#
tantek
depending on the specific example
#
kevinmarks
soundcloud expects a cover image, follwing the jam model https://soundcloud.com/the-marksist/marks-mix-21-about-damn-time
#
tantek
that's even more interesting - if it expects one on the *consuming* side!

definitely worth documenting that on /audio#Silo_Examples !

heck what is OER?
#
@VivienRolfe
The shear volume of our publicly-funded OER that are no longer available at all is quite staggering. #ukoer #oer https://twitter.com/VivienRolfe/status/652861939002011648/photo/1

!tell snarfed thanks, but I'm opting out of Jetpack since the only way to use it is to be wired into wordpress.com; although I am trying to dig the code for potential fixes
#

#
tantek
yes - http://core.materials.ac.uk/ - in their header: "Open Educational Resources"
#
petermolnar
the truth is that it doesn't matter if we comment on that thread; some people have rock solid ideas of how collaboration should look, behave and be like and if you point them at a different approach they'll categorically reject it
adactio joined the channel
#
tantek
it's ok if some reject it, as long as those that accept it are actually empowered and succeed more than those that reject. e.g. if those that accept have sites with better longevity.

@benwerd
Q: Which services do you use for all the to-dos in your life? eg, Asana, Wunderlist, GitHub, Jira, etc etc ..?
(twitter.com/_/status/653437187862589440)
#
tantek
kind of interesting no one suggested using Known notes for this ;)
#
tantek
ultimately it makes sense for your "to-dos" (or GTD inbox(es) / next-actions) to be something you fully control using your own website (assuming well written offline support etc. obv)
#
tantek
though it's been interesting watching people use github issues as todo items
#
j4y_funabashi
tantek: Really want to get to a point where I can do that - notes+tasks on my own site
#
tantek
I think the key to figuring out that is documenting (your, others') existing working "systems" (whether txt file, git etc.) and seeing what pieces / common patterns they have
#
tantek
It does feel like we have a bunch of the building blocks
#
tantek
for me txt files are so darn convenient to quickly edit (lowest latency), and select ranges of things to move around
#
tantek
instead of having to drag or cut/paste etc. each item one at a time (which so many of these UIs make you do - even gmail is a pain like that, checkboxes for items etc.)
#
j4y_funabashi
How do people handle private posts? The bits I have read on the wiki seem to suggest all posts should be public?
#
tantek
what are private posts?
#
Loqi
private posts refer to posts or portions of posts which are private to either the author or to a limited audience chosen by the author https://indiewebcamp.com/private_posts
#
tantek
take a look j4y_funabashi ^^^
#
j4y_funabashi
ahh excellent, completely missed that :)
#
tantek
petermolnar: perhaps suggest to the OER folks that they study this list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_websites_founded_before_1995 and analyze why some of those have survived so long
#
petermolnar
they doesn't really seem to be friendly and open enough to keep on with that conversation in my opinion
#
petermolnar
but I like that list
#
tantek
presumably if they're educators, some of them will be scientific, and open to looking at data ;)

regarding /longevity, I've verified that archive.org has not only HTML, but some RSS and Atom too. What I can't seem to find is any archived JSON(LD).
#
tantek
and in quite the ironic /selfdogfood fail, http://json-ld.org/ (home page) does not actually reference / link to / any json-ld itself.
#
tantek
digging through the non-linked URLs (in plain text) I was able to find this: http://web.archive.org/web/20130715000000*/http://json-ld.org/contexts/person.jsonld

I was kind of devastated when I learned that Hungarian stuff doesn't really exist on archive.org from before 2002

I'm going to keep making constructive suggestions to improve AMP until they're rejected, and if that passes some threshold, perhaps a forking / subsetting of AMP would work

also, I'm pretty surprised WordPress picked that up this fast; they are not really known for being early adopter. /me smelling money :/

There's definitely money in that mix - but also a little desperation. Distribution for self-hosted blog posts is vital, and Facebook's instant pages is a real threat

I really hate the fact that AMP whitelists, eg, certain ad networks, and that's something I'll try and write about later today

#
tantek
gives Loqi brunch to give to KevinMarks
#
aaronpk
see every time you *try* to provoke Loqi he just ignores you
#
tantek
well he did say he was done
#
kevinmarks
so they didn't allow rel="lightbox" even though lightboxes are an AMP thing
#
tantek
sounds more ontopic for #microformats ;)

tantek: could you make 7-8 for IWC MIT?

rhiaro: I don't think so? don't worry about me - focus on getting as many locals as possible
#
rhiaro
Just wondered since you didn't reply to that proposal
#
tantek
I'm likely going to be traveled-out since TPAC
#
tantek
regardless I will try to remote talky
#

tantek: TPAC?
#
tantek
wonders if W3C TPAC is worth adding to /events
#
rhiaro
Yeah I get back from Japan on the 5th, but can probably cope with IWC 7-8th..

GWG
Am I the only person who stays home most of the time around here?
#
aaronpk
I stay home most of the time, but technically I'd only have to be home 51% of the time for it to be considered "most"

Enjoying this 1.1 MB blog post about fighting page bloat http://www.webperformancetoday.com/2015/09/08/deja-vu-all-over-again/ Can you help me find the fattest anti-bloat page out there?

tantek
what is irony?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "irony" yet. Would you like to create it? http://indiewebcamp.com/s/104q
#
tantek
^^^ kevinmarks feel free to start with an examples section
#
KartikPrabhu
why is that page 1.1MB it has almost only text

I'd love to see more #indieweb blog posts out there. I feel like there's been a downturn in people writing about it this year, including me. It'd be good to keep awareness up - I'm seeing lots of people (particularly in news / media) wonder how they can own their own stuff, but not coming to a useful solution.
#
aaronpk
what are posts about the indieweb?
#
Loqi
Welcome to news about the IndieWeb where recent notable articles about the IndieWeb are cited and linked to keep you up to date https://indiewebcamp.com/Posts_about_the_IndieWeb
#
benwerd
There's been a lot of development activity, which is awesome - this is arguably a bigger community than it's ever been
#
aaronpk
yeah that's like half as many as last year
#
aaronpk
or we're just not capturing them on the wiki

we’re having more conversations and fewer blog posts

m seeing a lot of failed Twitter outreach but can’t really quote chapter and verse
#
misuba
I should only really speak to my own work running a multiuser site for friends, where the best case is they are excited for about a day and then stop using it
#
Loqi
agreed.
#
misuba
when interpreted as conversation, that is a little dispiriting

I am a big believer in changing what you say until you get the response you want; the best way to do that feels to me like shoring up the software, but that is immensely slow going. if you’re me.

misuba: have you asked for feedback on why people ctopped using the site?
#
misuba
KartikPrabhu: I have, and I’ve gotten feedback that isn’t useful on the surface. Drilling down on it, however, is a hard thing to find a social context for.
#
misuba
all of us are busy people who want to minimize the time we spend thinking about software (for free, anyway)

misuba - indeed, indieweb software and sites need to have as seamless as simple UX as possible to compete with modern silo offerings.
