[Core] Comment on WordPress 4.5: What’s on your Wishlist? by Daniele Scasciafratte https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/12/30/wordpress-4-5-whats-on-your-wishlist/#comment-28755 maybe a pingback vs webmention…

I'll go tackle that

@sil
@Rose0Window @NevilleMorley agreed. This is why I still write on my own site and have webmentions; because Medium is just the next Geocities

#
KartikPrabhu
what is text first
#
Loqi
Text-first design refers to the practice of designing information so that it is usable/actionable in its most basic plaintext form https://indiewebcamp.com/text-first
#
tantek
lol at "Medium is just the next Geocities" that's both optimistic and harsh at the same time. It will be remarkable if Medium ever approaches even the same order of magnitude of the # of sites that Geocities has.

aaronpk
tantek: not tonight
#
tantek
can't say I disagree with this: "he found the internet stripped of its power to change the world and instead serving up a stream of pointless social trivia"
#
tantek
there does seem to be a lot more pointless social trivia since say 2006
#
tantek
aaronpk: no problem. let's try to decide 1-2 weeks ahead when we cancel for an evening if we can just to give folks that go regularly a heads-up.
#
KartikPrabhu
social media is just a bar room on a global scale. Most people talk trivia in IRL too
#
aaronpk
i'm hoping to be more consistent next year when bret can be a regular again too
#
tantek
The others (Brighton, Göteborg) are monthly-ish anyway, so there's less chance of that error
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: that's not my experience with the people I hang out with IRL
#
KartikPrabhu
yes biased sample ;)
#
tantek
I think "social media" has incentivized more shallow behaviors, that's the problem
#
tantek
s/behaviors/behaviors online
#
Loqi
tantek meant to say: I think "social media" has incentivized more shallow behaviors online, that's the problem
#
tantek
not to mention all the trolling, stalking etc.
#
KartikPrabhu
yes because social media is so "easy" there are less barriers to mindless trivia and yes trolling, stalking
#
Schnitz
every human nature is exposed some way. social media is self-fulfilling. we just didn't see it coming, thats all
#
KartikPrabhu
Schnitz: yes that is what I am trying to say :)
#
Schnitz
still shocked about human nature, apparently.
#
bret
aaronpk: 2015 was a weird year, between jobs and school :/
#
Loqi
bret: tantek left you a message on 12/27 at 2:08pm: hey bret did you get this working and are you still using it? http://bret.io/2014/12/20/goal-to-get-photo-ho/ http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2015-12-27/line/1451254136050
#
bret
nope priorities shifted
#
Schnitz
but we had like 10 years to get used to it :-)
#
Schnitz
tantek: utopia/dystopia: how would you judge a society that would forbid certain types of social media behaviour to preserve a certain level of human quality?
#
tantek
the society doesn't need to forbid it - the sites need better mute/block/report tools and people will filter out abuse.
#
tantek
Like I can just ignore and choose not to participate in the cesspools of youtube/hackernews comments etc.
#
Schnitz
one could argue that those mute/block/report can only happen thru public pressure, ie. the society
#
tantek
no ie. public pressure = voting with your feet. don't use sites with crappy support for mute/block/report.
#
tantek
societies don't forbid things btw, governments do.
#
KartikPrabhu
which is why I never click on links to certain "forums"
#
tantek
big difference
#
Schnitz
tantek times multiples == a portion of the society
#
KartikPrabhu
and even if i get there through redirects I close tab immediately
#
tantek
Schnitz: meh - sounds like you're making a handwavy hypothetical argument, I'm out
#
Schnitz
alright
#
tantek
what does this have to do what the next thing you want to improve on your personal site?
#
Schnitz
tantek, I had a question, not judging
#
Schnitz
I don't know the answer myself
#
tantek
Schnitz: I'm not sure I understand the relevance of the question to personal sites
#
Schnitz
trying to preserve on-topic relevancy here?
#
tantek
in a world where silos shrink into legacy obscurity, I think your question is irrelevant
#
tantek
Schnitz: yes. for random chatter we have #indiechat :)
#
Schnitz
tantek said quote: "I think "social media" has incentivized more shallow behaviors, that's the problem" - the technologies we discuss here might change that, thru better options, as you say. My addtion was: were does the energy for change come from. From the inside (individual behavour) or maybe regulation. Hypothetical, maybe.
#
tantek
regulation is a trailing indicator
#
tantek
certainly for anything internet
#
tantek
and most of it has been really bad
#
Schnitz
of course!
#
Schnitz
so far
#
tantek
tons of it has to be fought
#
Schnitz
I know
#
Schnitz
I'm not advocating it per se just because I mention it
#
tantek
I'm saying it's not even worth a "maybe"
#
tantek
we have to create the web we want
#
tantek
any regulation is more than likely to screw it up than help it in any way
#
Schnitz
the maybe part, to be precise, would be outside our control
#
Schnitz
not 'us' maybe wanting regulation
danlyke_ joined the channel
#
tantek
Schnitz: the only chance we have is to innovate faster than the regulation writers can produce randomness that hurts the internet. it's when we stand still that we get screwed.
#
Schnitz
good point. I agree with you, fully
#
Schnitz
TBH the one thing I might add, is that you fully rely on viral forces for the good thing to spread. Like better technologies win over less perfect technologies. A better social media system wins over the less functional own. This is kinda darwinistic. I might add its not just government regulation, but my feeling is that there is something chaotic or random with adoption processes, that you...
#
Schnitz
...cannot really apply logic and therefore any predictability. You might want to enforce things at some point. Whatever that may be. I don't mean stupid laws or so. But leaving everything to natural forces, I'm skeptical
j12t joined the channel
#
tantek
being skeptical is good. the data we do have is that laws regarding the internet are nearly all bad, ergo, we should avoid them and out-innovate them as much as possible.
#
Schnitz
that for sure, I didn't mean laws right now at all
#
tantek
nor in any forseeable future
#
KartikPrabhu
legislation moves slower than technology
#
tantek
it's pretty much pointless to dicuss them
#
tantek
except to fight them
#
tantek
and overturn them
#
Schnitz
same also in the future, not what I was getting at
#
Schnitz
yeah 100%!
#
Schnitz
ok can I give an example or shall I move to chitchat for that, its a metaphor, r u interested? Don't have to say yes :-)
#
tantek
a metaphor is not an example
#
tantek
so no, not really interested
#
Schnitz
ok nevermind
#
tantek
right, when you're actually building and iterating, most of these kinds of discussions are a waste of precious time, opportunity cost for when you could be actually moving the future forward
#
Schnitz
I was really not trying to advocate government regulations, thats all!
#
Schnitz
tantek: as you see I shut up, declaring full agreement with what you say... your statement: ""I think "social media" has incentivized more shallow behaviors, that's the problem"" was just both interesting and controversial, and got me thinking, thats all
#
tantek
yeah - it has me thinking too. I don't have an answer. And it makes me uncomfortable to have to point out a problem without a good question or suggestion about it. Still, even worse would be denying it.
#
tantek
I want to believe we can do better with the indieweb, with our own websites.
#
Schnitz
We can!
#
Schnitz
I believe in that too
#
Schnitz
I believe that its OK and important to believe that, in the first place
#
tantek
I don't know how we do it on a macro scale. All I know how to do now is to change it on a micro scale on my own site, and hope that leads to figuring out broader solutions.
#
Schnitz
thank you tantek, no you really touch what I was getting at, thank you so much
#
Schnitz
and I don't have the answer too (of course not)
#
Schnitz
and its to an extent useless to discuss - fully admitted
#
Schnitz
still I do think about these forces
#
Schnitz
just myself

kylewm
what's the difference between /read and /h-review? could one post subsume both?
modem joined the channel
#
tantek
kylewm: /read is just about the reading of a book (or article etc.). Whereas an h-review is actual commentary, evaluation, rating etc. about that "experience"
#
tantek
presumably a smart e-reader (Kindle?) could auto-post a /read post for you once you flipped past the last page
#
tantek
the very second you finished a book :)
#
tantek
what is delicious library?
#
Loqi
Delicious Library is https://delicious-monster.com, an application for keeping inventory of your stuff with minor emphasis on sharing with friends https://indiewebcamp.com/Delicious_Library
#
Schnitz
interesting
modem joined the channel
#
kylewm
tantek and I discussed face-to-face 1) goodreads model smushes read/reviewed together 2) this is probably not optimal design on their part
#
KartikPrabhu
a post can be both a /read and a /review what's the problem? Just like a note can be a reply with a u-photo or something

I'd like to post https://blog.indie.host/2015/the-new-blog to my new web friendly tumblr blog, you should then automatically receive a webmention via bridgy, just curious how Known / Your blog makes use of this, whether it will show up as a mention or so

Hmm re: indieauth.. There was one thing aaronpk helped me debug to do with htaccess.. Something silly
#
rhiaro
Otherwise it was straightforward
#
rhiaro
With indieauth.com of course, but it's now clear to me what to do to do it all myself
#
tantek
I'm ok delegating to indieauth.com for now
#
tantek
I may also use this feature as an excuse to upgrade my own relmeauth.php library
#
rhiaro
And additional functionality on it? Secret messages for some hardcoded list of people when they sign in, heh
#
tantek
because you know, anti-monoculture and all that
oddvar, iboxifoo and edsu joined the channel
#
rhiaro
Figured I'll just fork indieauth.com and host my own at some point, rather than write any of the code myself
#
tantek
I figure there's some value in maintaining a separate relmeauth library

rhiaro
I might make some show/hide types of content controls for signed in people
#
tantek
I'm definitely thinking about "signed-in only content"
#
rhiaro
Not sure whether the value of signing in is to let you unflood or see more though
#
rhiaro
Chaos/noise by default, sign in to get value maybe..
Schnitz_ joined the channel
#
tantek
content that is semi-public, that is, I won't store it any more securely, but won't show to non-signed in UAs like search engines etc.
#
tantek
filtering/unflooding is worth doing for everyone
#
rhiaro
Not necessarily..
#
rhiaro
Privacy through noise
#
tantek
sort-of - in practice I'm not sure that makes much to the sifters
#
tantek
s/much/much difference
#
Loqi
tantek meant to say: sort-of - in practice I'm not sure that makes much difference to the sifters
#
rhiaro
Could also play with levels of detail/granularity according to auth status
#
rhiaro
Eg for checkins
#
tantek
I'm also thinking of "sign-in only early viewing"
#
tantek
e.g. maybe I want all photos I post to show-up to non signed-in users 2 weeks after I've posted them (so random browsers can't use them to see where I am)
#
rhiaro
Just about finished my check-in client https://apps.rhiaro.co.uk/burrow. Talks as2 json rather than mp form-encoded though
#
tantek
could do similarly with check-in granularity
#
tantek
neat!
#
rhiaro
Finally will resume consistent vague checkins
#
aaronpk
rhiaro: right now my clients use the first micropub endpoint they find. there has been some thoughts on supporting multiple though
#
rhiaro
Cool yeah I want my client to do a drop down choice I think
#
aaronpk
I had a sketch of choosing the micropub endpoint at the auth server stage
#
aaronpk
which I think is a better place to do it, since then the client doesn't need to worry about supporting multiple
#
aaronpk
trying to find where i had written that up
#
rhiaro
Makes sense
marcthiele joined the channel
#
aaronpk
i'm going to build my own auth server for p3k because there are some other settings i want to experiment with there
#
aaronpk
so when I sign in to an app i'll get to choose the visibility of the posts it creates, and which "collections/feeds" they get added to automatically
#
rhiaro
Interesting

You think you'll always want to define that per-app rather than per-post?
#

I think there are some times where I want blanket rules like that per app. per post I'll want to do as well

#
KartikPrabhu
what's the difference between bridgy publish and silo.pub?
#
Pierre-O
Schnitz: I just received the mention by email, but nothing on my blog (I opened an issue: https://github.com/idno/Known/issues/1124)
#
Schnitz
Pierre-O: cool
#
aaronpk
silo.pub is a micropub endpoint so you can use it with any micropub client
#
KartikPrabhu
aah gotcha
#
KartikPrabhu
Pierre-O: Schnitz: it is possible that Known does not display simple "mentions" only replies/like/reposts
#
Schnitz
Kartik: This may also be the case with the IRC mention relay here, because it seems to got sent but didn't show up here, wherease other mentions did show up: https://brid.gy/tumblr/belp.audio
#
Pierre-O
KartikPrabhu: yes, it is what I am wondering, taht's why I said on the issue, that it might be normal behaviour
#
Schnitz
I'm currently thinking about whether this is a superfeedr/bridgy or whether I have any control over this
#
Schnitz
superfeedr/bridgy issue
#
KartikPrabhu
Schnitz: bridgy seems to be picking it up from your user-page
#
Schnitz
bridgy is reading the rss of my tumblr
#
Schnitz
looks for URLs in the description tag and generate a webmention AFAIK
#
KartikPrabhu
and it seems to sending the webmention successfully so it probably on the receiving end
#
Schnitz
KartikPrabhu: It did work with your webmention page, yes
#
KartikPrabhu
yup. because I display all webmentions in someway but it is upto the receiver to display them or not. I thought of not displaying "likes" but then left them for such situations
#
Schnitz
hmm... not sure if something is wrong or not, and where
j12t joined the channel
#
aaronpk
oh man Linode Fremont is getting DoS'd right now
#
Schnitz
Kartik: Is this maybe in the area of best practices or implementations 'crystalizing' still? Seems if you get the simple mention but others like Known seem to ignore it, it might just be different implementation behaviour, or is there is default behaviour somehow documented / established (yet)?
#
KartikPrabhu
Schnitz: I don't know if any "default" on the displaying side has been established. Again individual sites are free to ignore any such default recommendations so...
#
KartikPrabhu
also i don't parse "bookmark-of", "quotation-of" etc... they all show up as mentions
#
Schnitz
As I wrote it I realized myself its kinda a rhetorical question, but I am just not fully up-to-speed with webmention common practices (yet), so maybe there is already some sort of default behaviour one could point to, but thats nothing I would push or urge, it has be develop organically, agreed
#
KartikPrabhu
what is webmention?
#
Loqi
Webmention is a simple way to notify any URL when you link to it on your site https://indiewebcamp.com/Webmention
#
KartikPrabhu
Schnitz: there are some guidlines here: https://indiewebcamp.com/comments but no recommendation of "what to display"
tantek joined the channel
#
Schnitz
Thanks Kartik
#
Schnitz
Pierre-O: so your issue with Known should be ok. Keep me informed whether there will be any attempt to display this, rather than just an email (you did get an email from my post, right?)

kylewm
tantek: thinking about how Bridgy should find your h-feed -- should it special case .h-card > .h-feed or just BFS the page for .h-feed at any depth?
#
KartikPrabhu
what is feed?
#
Loqi
A feed is a dynamic set of posts, typically listed in reverse-chronological order, often only the most recent n (like 10) of them https://indiewebcamp.com/feed
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: you could use bs4 to find the first element with h-feed in class and then send that to mf2
#
kylewm
is the definition of "first h-feed" uncontroversial?
#
KartikPrabhu
oh you mean BFS or DFS?
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah don't know
#
KartikPrabhu
how do you do it on woodwind?
#
KartikPrabhu
or does woodwind not find tantek's h-feeD?
tantek joined the channel
#
kylewm
that is a very good question...
#
kylewm
ok yeah it searches all items and recurses on their children
#
kylewm
I'm wondering if there is a circumstance where that would be bad, like if you had h-entry > h-card > h-feed, surely that is not the page's primary feed...but maybe that is an unnecessary hypothetical
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: cross that bridge when you get there
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: might be good to abstract this function into mf2util?

aaronpk - try doing a view source on the Apple Wallett "cards" you get in the email from (electronic boarding pass) as enclosures - check their XML
#
aaronpk
good thinking!
#
aaronpk
interesting, according to the SDK docs, the fields are defined per pass. the SDK just provides different data types
#
aaronpk
it does define an enum of transit types: Air, Boat, Bus, Train and Generic
#
aaronpk
oh they are json files now!
#
GWG
Trains also have numbers.
#
GWG
Operator might work
#
aaronpk
the json file has things like {"key":"flight","label":"FLIGHT","value":"400","textAlignment":"PKTextAlignmentNatural"}
#
aaronpk
I can't think of what to call "flight number" other than "flight number". just "number" seems too generic
#
GWG
They used to file Amtrak trains in airline GDS systems. They gave the train stations an IATA airport code

GWG
Amtrak itself also has station codes

Route number?
