#petermolnarI've found a solution for my photo vs article tell-apart issue from yesterday: I do set a article character limit to separate short/long, but in case it fall to photo identification, compare the text difference percentage between the post content and the photo description, coming from IPTC data; if it's within a certain range ( 'cause I do copy the IPTC data as post content by hand when posting a photo ), I can assume it's a photo post

#snarfedTIL that modern unicode domain names are case insensitive just like old school ascii domain names
#ben_thatmustbemeyeah, so on android at least, when launching a browser window inside an app, its totally insulated, so no saved passwords, you have to log in manually to whatever site you are using via typing in info on phone keyboard
#aaronpkwhen it comes down to it, it turns out computers don't need to know/model the full depth of types of objects in order for the information to still be useful to people reading it
#kylewmyeah you're right I think. it's useful for me to know if something is an event, but i don't much care if an h-card is a person/location/corporation/etc.
#aaronpkthe difference between an event and an h-card is important because the software will display them totally differently
#aaronpkbut that's not really a distinction based on the type of the object so much as based on what properties it has
#kevinmarksa person vs location heuristic is does name=org

#[shaners]I’m adding Pages to Homesteading now. Pages almost identical to Articles. Just not in the timestream. Duh. We all know and agree on that. (I think.)
#aaronpki decided to not even have a distinction between pages and articles
#[shaners]My question for y’all is do you think that Pages should have an `in-reply-to` field on them? [ ] yes [ ] no [ ] it’s complicated [ ] _______
#aaronpkmy answer is stop thinking about explicit post types
#[shaners]Pages and posts get different URL structures.
#aaronpkbasically i now have a "post" object, which can have either text/plain or text/html content type, and can have a bunch of properties like in-reply-to. i can also set a custom URL for any post
#kylewmactually I'm kind of surprised that you (aaronpk) are the big proponent of implicit types, it seems like you have the most to gain from explicit with all the different metrics and stuff you track
#aaronpki'm all for explicitly attaching things to posts, but that's different from post types
#[shaners]aaronpk: In two years, if I’ve rebuilt, am rebuilding, or want to rebuild HS to remove explicit post types, I will buy you dinner. If not, you’ll buy me dinner. Deal?
#Loqifollow is a common button in silo UIs (like Twitter) that adds updates from that profile (typically a person) to the stream shown in an integrated reader, and sometimes creates a follow post either in the follower's stream ("… followed …" or "… is following …") thus visible to their followers, and/or in the notifications of the user being followed ("… followed you") https://indiewebcamp.com/follow
#voxpellialthough he has a different indie-config setup than most, where he caches the result of the indie-config in his site's localhost or something rather than loading it live
#aaronpkIIRC there is one structure form-encoded can't represent, but can't remember what exactly
#aaronpkalso ironic is the fact that you can't upload files with JSON posts, so if you are going to post a photo or video, you need to use form encoding anyway
#singpolymaunless you wanted to accept data-uri fields or similar
#aaronpksingpolyma: kevinmarks: yea there are any number of ways you *can* get files into JSON post requests, but none are standard the way multipart encoding is
#aaronpkyou could even do regular multipart encoding and just have one of the parts be the JSON post body
#kevinmarksthat is not exactly form encoding, but it's a convention
#aaronpkwhoa when did this happen "Beware. This specification is no longer in active maintenance and the HTML Working Group does not intend to maintain it further."
#aaronpk!tell tantek do you know what happened to HTML JSON forms? http://www.w3.org/TR/html-json-forms/ "Beware. This specification is no longer in active maintenance and the HTML Working Group does not intend to maintain it further."
#snarfedhey all! a couple PSAs for bridgy users...
#snarfedfirst, retrying responses is much improved. it retries *all* URLs, works harder to find candidate URLs (including syndication URLs), and you can page through old responses so you can retry them
#snarfedsecond, for finding your user page: along with remembering your accounts when you log into them, it now also lets you type your username, full name, or domain instead of user id in the URL (for silos where it needed that before)
#aaronpkit's basically shortcuts for free-form text entry
