it hooks on to the ping hook which is cron triggered

the spec doesn't require async, does it?

oh, i see
#
GWG
"Upon receipt of a POST request containing the source and target parameters, the receiver SHOULD queue and process the request asynchronously to prevent DoS attacks. There are three possible responses to the request, depending on how the receiver processes it. "
#
GWG
The webmention plugin does not queue and process. It processes immediately
#
petermolnar
you mean the receiving part
#
singpolyma
GWG: async is recommended (SHOULD) for the reasons stated (prevent DoS). not a requirement
#
GWG
Of course, it does say SHOULD.
#
WeStyle

GWG
singpolyma: For a feature plugin for WordPress, shouldn't it?
#
petermolnar
GWG I have an idea how to async this with WP
#
WeStyle
you're welcome, in Vietnam
#
GWG
petermolnar: Do tell
#
petermolnar
receive, note in DB; meanwhile have cron hook, cron hook processes external call
#
petermolnar
just like the ping part is done
#
petermolnar
only reverse
#
petermolnar
if you think about it
#
petermolnar
you don't need async for the webmention pluing
#
WeStyle
@GWG: i send add friend facebook for you
#
petermolnar
because that's just the queue
#
petermolnar
the async should be the semantic linkbacks
#
petermolnar
the webmention is a receiver, which just creates a note of being poked in comments
#
petermolnar
the actual pull of the real content is by semantic linkbacks
#
Stskeeps
g 39
#
petermolnar
I'm not familiar with that codebase, but I'll check it
#
GWG
petermolnar: I was just suggesting we adjust it if there is a feature plugin.
#
petermolnar
be we don't need to
#
GWG
But you are incorrect.
#
GWG
Semantic Linkbacks pulls it again
#
GWG
So there are currently two pulls per webmention
#
petermolnar
I have to double check this
#
WeStyle
you say wordpress?
e-lima joined the channel
#
WeStyle
oh, now i understand
#
petermolnar
GWG I don't think it pull, at least I can't find it in the code; where do you see that?
#
petermolnar
but that is the semantic linkbacks
#
petermolnar
and that is not what's receiving
#
petermolnar
let me summarise it:
#
GWG
I'm saying it pulls the HTML from the remote source twice
#
petermolnar
I missed that
#
petermolnar
you're right
#
GWG
But I have a solution
#
petermolnar
do this from cron
wolftune joined the channel
#
GWG
But that is doable
#
petermolnar
how else you'd make anything async in WP?
#
GWG
I meant, how to avoid the double pull.
#
GWG
This ticket would solve it
#
GWG
The last version of this would add the remote_source to the comment data, to be available to the preprocess_comment filter. The second part of the change would give comment_post access to the comment_data
#
GWG
You'd be able to pull, preprocess, and post process without requesting the HTML twice
mattronix joined the channel
#
GWG
It would allow a rewrite of semantic linkbacks to update pingbacks and webmentions before they hit the database instead of after
#
GWG
It would not, however, solve the async issue
#
petermolnar
GWG I'm not sure this will fly; where is the HTML coming for the pingback data?
#
GWG
The pingback function already pulls it. It just doesn't pass it to the filter
#
petermolnar
right, but the webmentions plugin implements it's own endpoint, and I thought it does not use the pingback, especially since pingback is xml-rpc based
#
GWG
petermolnar: But it could also be set to pass the same data through.
#
petermolnar
I disagree with you on the approach for this; I'd store the received POST and cron the HTML pull
#
GWG
The goal of async is to prevent DDOS.
#
GWG
As I said earlier, it isn't in the current webmention design.
#
petermolnar
and what is in the pingback design that prevents it?
#
GWG
Or the pingback design.
#
GWG
What I think would make sense is to abstract out the delivery mechanism from the processing mechanism and have pingbacks and webmentions processed by the same code
#
GWG
But the pingback spec doesn't allow for async, I believe
#
GWG
The only acceptable responses to a ping are for it to be processed.
#
petermolnar
I honestly believe the best 'async' you can get out of WP is via cron
#
petermolnar
so I'll try to implement something like that
#
GWG
petermolnar: I'm not disagreeing.
#
petermolnar
I also would like to see pingback just fly away
#
petermolnar
and not to rely on it :)
#
GWG
petermolnar: I'm just suggesting it run through the same code. They won't deprecate it. You'd have better luck deprecating trackbacks.

GWG, while I'm doing that, go edit /Planning#MIT to note your date preferences (both -1 and 0 and +1)

tantek
aaronpk - can you take the lead on locking down dates for IWC MIT?
#
tantek
i.e. double-check with rhiaro and sandro for space etc.
#
GWG
I like any proposal that involves a Friday and a Saturday. But I can roll with the punches
#
tantek
(I think the dates were fairly constrained already, so we should be able to figure out MIT quickly)

This is a two day event.

right, same start/end times

yeah i'm looking forward to the increase character limit on twitter
#
aaronpk
once you start replying to threads with 2-3 people in them, you run out of space to say anything
#
tantek
uh, more chars won't help that
#
tantek
because they'll say more too
#
tantek
and then you'll say more
#
tantek
and then it will become multitopic
#
aaronpk
i'm in the middle of a thread and i can only get one sentence in per tweet
#
tantek
and presto, you've just reinvented silo-email, but slower, and js;dr!
#
aaronpk
really i just want another sentence
#
bear
twitter will lose all value for me at larget character limites
#
tantek
that's how it starts
#
tantek
"just one more... x"
#
aaronpk
twitter DMs are already unlimited chars, so they took the first step to email already :P
#
bear
as I consume it by glancing at a single line stream
#
tantek
there is more incentive to be concise in dms / private messages
#
tantek
whereas @-replies tend to be more argumentative
#
gRegorLove
Yep, Twitter is like an ephemeral chat room with the internet for me. I don't want it to be a place where people post long-form content.

gRegorLove: tantek left you a message 18 hours, 10 minutes ago: could you update the IndieWebCamps template for 2016, starting with /2016/NYC /2016/Nuermberg /2016/Germany (Düsseldorf) ? Thanks much!!! http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-01-07/line/1452209135858
#
aaronpk
it's interesting that IRC encourages even shorter number of chars per message, and posting a bunch of messages in a row is normal
#
gRegorLove
I can not look at it for hours or days and don't feel obligated to "catch up"
#
aaronpk
gRegorLove: I solved that problem by filtering twitter into IRC channels :P
#
bear
there is a small handful of people who I will review their stream specifically
#
gRegorLove
Which problem?
#
aaronpk
the "obligated to catch up" problem
#
gRegorLove
Yeah, I use lists for those I want to keep caught up with, just saying in general.
#
gRegorLove
It sounds like they want to be more like Medium
#
aaronpk
yeah I'm not saying I support long-form writing on twitter, I just am struggling to actually say anything in the remaining 80 chars after a bunch of @-mentions
#
gRegorLove
A friend suggested they at least not make usernames count towards the character limit. I think that's a bad idea for spam and harassment, though.
#

all of the moves twitter is making remind me of the changes facebook has made

what is a repost?
#
Loqi
A repost on the indieweb is a post that is purely a 100% re-publication of another post. The act of reposting is an umbrella term that covers the general practice of republishing another post typically on the same service or silo, but more and more across sites https://indiewebcamp.com/repost

yet with Tumblr "reblogs", you can add more text to whatever is in the thing you are reblogging, and this is still considered a reblog

tantek I think as long as it contains everything from the source and is only expanded it could be considered a repost

quoted tweet?

petermolnar
yes, that is a good example
#
tantek
aaronpk - yeah - I was thinking that, hence citing the Tumblr example
#
tantek
that's a one-off repost experiment, though I did markup the repost-of URL in my storage, so assuming I actually implement reposts, the appearance of that post will update automatically.

Re longer tweets, I think what they're actually doing is making text behave like images do now. A picture is worth 10,000 characters

So in effect what I asked for in 2011

If so, that could be a good thing, as it is closer to the note/article distinction we have in post type discovery

#
tantek
petermolnar: precisely what I predicted in my 2014 talk at Personal Democracy Forum

tantek
I called it "peak silo UX"

where basically the silos have run out of ideas and are now just copying each other, and thus eliminating differentiation

and that's the point, the silos turn into boring copies of each other

tantek
we standardize their practices, thereby further commodifying the silos

petermolnar
and that is how you lose users

tantek
and once they're commodities, then anyone can compete on a UX level, and thus being distributed / federating becomes a noticeable advantage

#
GWG
petermolnar, if you convince Wordpress to start a webmention feature plugin, who would lead the project team?
#
tantek
GWG, my guess is that it would be met with skepticism due to their shutting down of pingback/trackback
#
petermolnar
GWG that I don't know; which means that I'll postpone this and first talk to everyone involved

until we've got more /Vouch implementation experience/deployment

they might consider Webmention+Vouch

what we really need is /backfeed from Google News to our personal sites or any mention/inclusion of silo profiles like tantek/flickr or flickr/tantek

kylewm
maybe grep.io (julien's thing) instead of/in addition to Google News?
#
snarfed
sounds like julien's idea a while back to have superfeedr send webmentions on behalf of all of web sites it tracks
#
snarfed
heh, great minds kylewm :P
#
snarfed
grep.io looks interesting...it's basically google alerts?
#
kylewm
yes I think so, when I tried out the beta, it didn't find much for indiewebcamp

gRegorLove, last week, people in here were telling me to split two functions in a plugin, now you are advocating for unity?

kylewm: yup! and quite a few others
#
gRegorLove
Sorry for the snarky comment.
#
GWG
I understand both points of view
#

kylewm: IIRC grep.io is a demonstration/implementation of a superfeedr tracker: https://superfeedr.com/tracker
#
GWG
Let people only install what they need vs let them install one thing that does everything
#
kylewm
aaronpk: cool, makes sense
#
gRegorLove
With Syndication Links I think the functionality is not related, and agree with tantek's suggestions that the rel-me should be a core feature of the IndieWeb plugin.
#
gRegorLove
So in that case it's actually swapping to another plugin.
#
gRegorLove
Webmention and Vouch are closely tied and make sense in one plugin, imo.
#
snarfed
right. it's not that you want to always try for more plugins or fewer plugins. you want the appropriate number, with the appropriate features together or separate.

Then what do I do with the hcard widget?
#
gRegorLove
My thought with WordPress plugins is if most installed just Webmention plugin, then it took off, then there's spam problems, then they have to go back and install Vouch plugin.
#
gRegorLove
A widget to add an h-card to a page, or to each post?
#
kylewm
I'd vote for separate plugins. Vouch is still experimental and many/most? people here do not use or support it
#
snarfed
that seems like an argument to make it an opt in option, but not necessarily a separate plugin
#
kylewm
+1 oh, yes that
#

To clarify, I'm suggesting the verification of received vouches be included. Not necessarily sending.

cleverdevil joined the channel
#

kylewm: definitely! we already do for most of the silos
#
kylewm
I wonder how it should convert it if I published with <a href="https://kylewm.com/tags/indieweb" class="u-category">#indieweb</a>
#
kylewm
does it even make sense to do that?
#
aaronpk
that looks like a person-tag to me
#
kylewm
does it??
#
aaronpk
or, tagging it with whatever is at that URL. probably a person, could also be a venue
#
aaronpk
regular tag values should always be strings, not URLs
#
kylewm
gotcha, OK so granary might need to differentiate between categories that look like urls and those that don't
#
gRegorLove
What is URL tagging?
#
Loqi
tags or tagging refers to categorizing or labeling content, your own or others (tag-reply), with words, phrases, names, or other information, optionally linked to specific people, events, locations, such as the practice of tagging posts being about certain people (person-tag), like tagging people or other items where (area-tag) they're depicted in a photo https://indiewebcamp.com/URL_tagging
#
kylewm
oh duh, we discussed this in granary issues already https://github.com/snarfed/granary/issues/58
#
snarfed
maybe just p-category?
#
snarfed
or does mf2 allow mixing prefixes with vocab arbitrarily?
#
aaronpk
the parser doesn't care
#
gRegorLove
I'm still considering URL tagging for music vs namespace+tag. "http://mewsite.com" vs "artist:mew"
#
aaronpk
but yeah the person-tag examples use "p-category h-card"
#
snarfed
aaronpk: right, but that doesn't make it kosher :P
#
snarfed
but maybe it is? got me
#
aaronpk
the prefix isn't part of the parsed result, so it doesn't matter what prefix you use as long as the result is what you want
#
kylewm
huh, I use u-category h-card on my person tags
#
snarfed
nope doesn't exist la la la i can't hear you

tvn, raretrack, tantek and Pierre-O joined the channel
#
tantek
snarfed, aaronpk is right, it's the term after the parsing prefix that's part of the vocabulary
#
snarfed
tantek: ok, sgtm. i guess it was a bit hard to grok that from reading http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2 , since properties are all listed with their prefixes, and it includes language like "properties: (parsed as p- plain text unless otherwise specified)"
#
snarfed
but i don't feel strongly about any of this
#
tantek
snarfed, probably means we can make the docs better
tvn joined the channel
#
aaronpk
yeah I agree the docs are misleading in that respect
#
aaronpk
but it's a tough balance between including examples of the HTML you'd actually write vs what might be "technically" correct
#
snarfed
aaronpk: totally! i wasn't looking at examples in this case though
#
snarfed
i'll see if i can make some small language tweaks
#
snarfed
just to confirm, some properties require certain prefixes, but others (e.g. category) support multiple...? and for those, the spec doesn't necessarily enumerate every possible/reasonable prefix for each property, but leaves it somewhat up to convention and best practice?
#
KevinMarks
the prefixes just say where to look
#
aaronpk
it's more like if the value is a string, you're *probably* never going to use a u- prefix for it, but there's nothing actually stopping you from doing so
#
KevinMarks
though e-url or dt-url would be perverse
#
aaronpk
<a href="string-value-here" class="u-property"> would result in {"property":["string-value-here"]} but that's just weird
#
tantek
right
#
aaronpk
similarly <time class="dt-url" value="http://example.com"> would be ridiculous but would work
#
tantek
snarfed, no property requires a particular prefix per se, it's just that some properties only some (or one) prefix really makes sense to use in real world content.
#
KevinMarks
it is something that makes gong form parsed back to html a little harder
#
tantek
which was never a design goal
#
tantek
snarfed, sure, language tweaks welcome!
