#
GWG
I feel like I have not accomplished enough to show anything surprising at The Summit
#
tantek
GWG, how about the IndieWeb plugin default support for rel=me and IndieAuth? That's kind of a big deal for helping WordPress users get started on the IndieWeb
#
aaronpk
acti-link: thanks for the bug report. You should see "0" as your author name in webmention.io now
#
GWG
tantek: It is functionally working, but it is visually unappealing.
#
aaronpk
(at least for new webmentions)
#
tantek
GWG, that's a great thing to demo then, and then ask for help with the design!
#
tantek
perfect example (on both parts) of what IndieWebCamp / IndieWeb Summit is about
#
tantek
getting *something* done, proudly showing what you got done, identifying what you need help with, and asking for help with it!
#
tantek
this is a pattern that nearly all of us fall into, and it's why we as a community are much more than the sum of our parts
#
GWG
tantek: Unless I get more done before that.
#
tantek
That's the spirit! :)
#
GWG
I got stalled for a long time on SVG icons.
#
GWG
I don't know why.
#
tantek
Yes I'm procrastinating on SVG icons for example that reason
#
tantek

#
Loqi
tantek meant to say: Yes I'm procrastinating on SVG icons for exactly that reason
#
tantek
(and that kind of typo-fail = time to get food. bbiab)
#
GWG
I couldn't figure out the implementation I wanted.
#
torrorist
GWG: i'll def be interested to talk wordpress stuffs with you at the summit…i had to hack together a rel=me link in a sidebar widget (not difficult for me to figure out, but a cleaner version would be awesome!).
#
GWG
torrorist: I have one in the repository already. But no one noticed it
#
torrorist
GWG: see, and this is another reason why i wanna chat with you more. i know there are wordpress plugins for better indieweb functionality, but finding them all is something i haven't had time for yet.
#
KartikPrabhu
are they not documented on \Wordpress?
#
GWG
torrorist: I have a lot of thoughts about that.
#
GWG
KartikPrabhu: Still needs more work.
#
torrorist
GWG: well, cool. i'm def looking forward to chatting more about it!
#
GWG
torrorist: I look forward to it as well.
#
GWG
The problem with WordPress, also an advantage, is a plugin architecture means you can build the same thing a variety of ways.
#
GWG
It is why there has been a philosophy of trying to keep each piece of functionality separate. But that is worthy of more discussion because of the reverse effect.
#
torrorist
yep, it's what i love/hate about wordpress :-)
#
GWG
Which is why I defend criticisms of how things have grown up while still trying to improve them.
#
acti-link
aaronpk: thanks for the bug fix. That was fast! Do you have an idea of a timeframe for the implementation of the deletion feature in Webmention.io?

!tell snarfed: would be grest if your notes are arranged as "in-reply-to" your reply, replies to your posts. e.g. https://snarfed.org/2016-05-22_kyle-mahan-instead-of-asking-for-clarification-or-arguing the current pattern is a bit disorienting
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
miklb
hmm. Got syndicate-to working with Quill, but I think since I have to wait for Jekyll to build it won't post the tweet since the link initially is a 404 :-(
dogada joined the channel
#
miklb
or I misunderstand how that is suppose to work. Which is completely possible.
#
@m_ott
@m_ott Hm. @netzintelligenz now liked two tweets that mention the same article. That's why he appears twice in the #webmention section.
(twitter.com/_/status/734623660863016960)
#
kylewm
miklb: you're using bridgy publish to send the tweet right?
#
miklb
kylewm I don't think so. Using Quill, I connect to Twitter. I also sorted out adding `syndicate-to` but the tweet doesn't post.
#
kylewm
hmm, Quill doesn't connect to Twitter as far as I know
#
miklb
But I had the same problem with bridgy and worked around that by sending the webmentions in my build process after the new post was built and published.
#
voxpelli
miklb: do Quill maybe just send some additional metadata that's added to the post?
#
miklb
voxpelli it does add the mf-syndicate-to in the Front Matter
arthurspooner joined the channel
#
voxpelli
miklb: great! Then one can do something post-build to send it, like eg. chaining something onto the PuSH-feed
#
miklb
PuSH-feed?
#
voxpelli
Tricky thing is that after sending one has to update the post with a link to the tweet
#
voxpelli
miklb: Pubsubhubbub
#
miklb
all in all, one step closer :-)
#
voxpelli
I have that set up for my site and thinking I can chain the rest of my services on top of that rather than adding more GitHub-specific stuff :)
#
kylewm
miklb: so I'm looking at the Quill code, I see a bit to post likes and reposts to Twitter directly, but nothing to POSSE notes
#
KevinMarks
kylewm: I subscribed to the atom version of my twitter feed, which is a bit big
#
kylewm
KevinMarks: you're not the only one :)
#
miklb
kylewm oh. That's useful to now. Thanks.
#
miklb
s/now/know/
#
Loqi
miklb meant to say: kylewm oh. That's useful to know. Thanks.
#
KevinMarks
as I follow ~7000 people though
#
voxpelli
kylewm: that could be because one probably don't add a permalink to ones post that points to the likes/retweets, which one would for a note
#
kylewm
@sensiblemn follows almost that many too
#
aaronpk
Quill supports favoriting and retweeting via the Twitter API directly, but that's all
#
miklb
aaronpk completely understandable. Just misunderstanding on my part
#
kylewm
aaronpk: why's that? historical accident?
#
voxpelli
Are there any services like Telegram that can help with the rest of the tweeting? Having a slight memory that there are
#
aaronpk
It supports Instagram likes too but I guess that will stop working on June 1
#
aaronpk
kylewm: I added it when I was experimenting with one click actions on Twitter.com
#
miklb
voxpelli unrelated, I'm also testing adding search with elasticsearch/React
#
aaronpk
That was back when you could still inject JS on Twitter via a bookmarklet
#
aaronpk
i still use it with the current bookmarklet you can get from quill, but it only works on tweet permalinks now.
#
aaronpk
And now it has to do a full page load rather than do it all inline
#
aaronpk
i should probably rip out some of the old code now actually
#
kylewm
voxpelli: not exactly sure what you're asking for about Telegram, but maybe thinking of https://silo.pub?

kylewm: thinking something that find my to be, but not yet, syndicated posts and sends them to correct place + updating the post over Micropub with the permalink a of those syndicated posts
#
voxpelli
miklb: interesting!
wolftune joined the channel
#
miklb
voxpelli there was a demo during the jekyllconf day on the subject. The person that gave the demo works for bonsai and offered a free sandbox dev account with a public read API so I'm going to test it out. If nothing else, get some familiarity with the tech.
#
cweiske
so you'll use react for the frontend. how do you want to crawl/index your pages?
#
miklb
they've written a Jekyll gem to assist with that. When you build the site, you update the index.
#
cweiske
ah. so you'll only index your own content, not e.g. sites you linked to
#
cweiske
how does your document structure look like?
#
cweiske
(elasticsearch doc)
#
miklb
cweiske you're getting into subject matter I haven't fully grasped yet :)
#
cweiske
access denied
#
miklb
weird. I had that problem with another of her posts, and she said everything was fixed.
#
cweiske
the /code/ in there is probably the cause
#
miklb
maybe that's what she fixed and I had a cached link to the old URL in my browser
#
cweiske
ah. it simply sends the whole text into elasticsearch; https://github.com/omc/searchyll/blob/master/lib/searchyll.rb
#
cweiske
I'm doing a bit more; I've ranked title, h1, h2..h6 and so higher than normal text; http://git.cweiske.de/phinde.git/blob/HEAD:/data/elasticsearch-mapping.json
#
miklb
cweiske you use Jekyll or some other static site?
#
cweiske
my blog is static, but I've my own private generator engine written in php
#
cweiske
my search engine is decoupled from it; it's a generic one
#
cweiske
which happens to index my own page :)
#
cweiske
and linked pages
#
miklb
interesting.
#
cweiske
since I store the domain of the documents, I can limit the results to it: http://search.cweiske.de/?q=web&site=cweiske.de
#
miklb
I have zero experience with elasticsearch, but I see it useful for a WordPress project I'm working on so want to start to familiarize myself with it, figured my own site is a good place to start
#
cweiske
I chose it because it allows boosting of fields
#
cweiske
which is hard to do with mysql fulltext search
#
cweiske
.. and facetet search results
#
cweiske
.. and search term highlighting

There's lots more reasons why Webmention > Pingback > Trackback, but the documented reasons should be sufficient for anyone seriously considering implementation.
#
aaronpk
we need a one-sentence summary of them that is more appropriate for a blog post about webmention
afrogeek and KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
tantek
Webmention is simpler & more reliable than Pingback, more thoroughly specified, and designed specifically to support rich social web interactions such as cross-site comments, likes, reposts, RSVPs, and more.
#
tantek
How's that?
#
aaronpk
that's great
#
aaronpk
is it worth mentioning explicitly that it supports update and deletes?

yes of course

[shaners]
ben_thatmustbeme: That’s one of the things I love about the web.
#
KartikPrabhu
[shaners]: agreed!
#
[shaners]
Hixie is just some rando to you. You and he are on the same level. On the web, all of us are.
#
tantek
(basically, the hardest spec editing "job" on the Web)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
trackback's official spec is on some random software's site
#
ben_thatmustbeme
(moveable type)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
[shaners]: exactly my point
#
[shaners]
ben_thatmustbeme: But yeah, he’s the rando who maintains the final edit of the HTML(5) spec.
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but publishes the final edit under w3c, thats a bit different
#
[shaners]
Not quite.
#
[shaners]
whatwg publish their html spec. w3c also publishes their html spec. Standards™!
#
tantek
Note that Pingback is not mentioned on Hixie's wikipedia page - ben_thatmustbeme feel free to add it since you discovered "its just something on someone's personal website" :)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i stand corrected
#
tantek
it's really not useful to debate the minutae of HTML(5) publishing, unless you really want to get into an intricate rathole, for which #indiechat is probably more appropriate (none of that particular minutae is indieweb related AFAIK)
#
KartikPrabhu
whateg has some "Living Standard" thingie which is different from the w3c process ?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: like I said, rathole
#
KartikPrabhu
ok tantek beat me to it!
#
KartikPrabhu
anyway for what it's worth, ping back is pretty widely implemented for being specd on some "random site"
#
KartikPrabhu
so webmention has to compete with that and not the fact that it is some official spec (even though that is cool)
#
[shaners]
To most people, our wiki is just some random site too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#
tantek
huh, though I certainly appreciate the adding to the wiki, I though Webmention used to have a "Why" section that maybe got moved in the spec / extra stuff separation process? aaronpk ?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: going to be pedantic for a moment, pingback is pretty widely *deployed*. I believe there are actually many MORE implementations of Webmention now.
#
aaronpk
i thought it was there before
#
tantek
also, plumbing debates are not a particularly good user-centric framing of a "Why"
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: yes. my only point was that implementation is the main test rather than whether it is official spec-ed
#
tantek
shaners, could you move that summary to this FAQ instead? https://indiewebcamp.com/Webmention-faq#Why_webmention_instead_of_pingback
#
aaronpk
i was about to say that
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: only in the short term. in the long term implementations either fail at edge cases due to lack of good spec, or you get implementations *defining* the details, which makes it *harder* for other implementations (they have to reverse engineer), which then hurts interoperability again (higher bar for additional implementations)

#
GWG
Afternoon
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: I stay away from wikipedia editing... sorry :)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
KartikPrabhu: its more of a question of knowing that its the same spec as everyone else. The only reason I have to trust that the spec is correct is that wikipedia links to it... which isn't much trust. Add that to the fact that its on a .ch domain name, and going to the root directory links to his personal blog and its not a ton of trust. However, W3C is a much more recognized name. if there were an RFC, or some
#
ben_thatmustbeme
other group of people reporting to edit it. Hell even just getting a domain name that is pingback.net or something has a bit of a higher level of trust than that. hell i could make pingback.net and publish a modified version of the spec and confuse everything.
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: aww - but it's fun! I mean especially do it with a logged in account of course
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: I have read too many Talk pages to think it is fun! I'll edit things on the indiewebcamp wiki sure but not going over to wikipedia

do you have some thoughts or plan written down for that?
#
tantek
bear - that's a good point
#
tantek
perhaps if we can help collaborate on a plan, we can at least move it forward a bit by figuring out the pieces
#
aaronpk
basically the tool should log you in via indieauth, then provide a UI where you can drop a link to your post, and the tool will generate a source page with your URL as the target, and try to send a webmention to it
#
bear
that's the type of flow/notes I was looking for - I could help do that with python to get a POC going

that is, login, and then have the option of push-button trying one test at a time, or if you're confident, push-button try them all

#
KevinMarks
OK, not the 2nd one
#
snarfed
most of them seem to be working on much more ambitious, boil-the-ocean stuff. it'll be interesting to see whether they grok and/or care about indieweb, and vice versa
#
sknebel
the ipfs-link is through a gateway *I think*, but if I try to access it through the the "official" gateway the URLs for CSS and images break
#
sknebel
and of course it embeds maps.googleapis.com, GA, eventbrite and the CDN stuff following those
#
sknebel
don't have native IPFS client installed, can't test that
#
tantek
is going to repeat the point that unless there are people working on IPFS that have worked on NASA/JPL missions to other planets, specifically the protocols to communicate with planetary probes, then the "P" is more like "pure hyperbole"

I'm guessing the "interplanetary" term is a nod to how TimBL's first "world wide" web page was really just a computer under his desk
#
bear
pfft, I doubt any of them have ever tried to do tcp across packet radio or satellite links, let alone planetary scale
#
tantek
bear, the flipside of my statement is that I remain remotely hopeful that someone working on IPFS *was*/is from NASA/JPL
#
bear
that would be awesome indeed
#
tantek
has enough contacts that that would be tempting to pursue for reals
#
aaronpk
I always wanted to get involved in the Ham radio community when they were starting to do IP over radio

one of my early computer programming tasks was to interface an Z100 to a man portable satellite radio for message traffic

ok that's pretty epic

z100 -> serial -> encryption box -> satellite -- and the reverse

KevinMarks: I recall the opposite, that his proposals for adding "broadcast" to IP to solve the problems for satellites and farther probes was soundly rejected by engineers that actually work on said things.

snarfed1 joined the channel
#
tantek
snarfed, doubt they have an actual intranet with planetary probes (too open to exploits/vulns), but rather a dedicated comms connection (not network) to JPL, which then provides access via a console of some sort. Doubtful there's *any* automatic routing of anything through that console to the probes.

Do double redirects not work on the wiki? copyrights->Copyrights gives me a page that says it's a redirect.

Also, copyright, Copyright, and Copyrights also claim to be redirected, but to what I don't know -- I guessed from the title that Copyrights was canonical.

It looks like we don't have a page for "versioning" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/10Lz
#
aaronpk
by default mediawiki is case insensitive. we actually explicitly changed it to be case sensitive a long time ago
#
colintedford
But I have more basic stuff to deal w/ first
#
colintedford
aaronpk: huh, why so?
#
aaronpk
or rather, by default all pages are lowercase, but they are displayed with first letter caps
#
aaronpk
so things that should actually be lowercase are displayed wrong
#
aaronpk
and it's impossible to get it to display CamelCase or things like iPhone
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks]
I did that with smallest federated wiki on my domain, then din't use it at all

aaronpk
(that may not be true anymore in newer versions, but was true at the time we installed mediawiki, in 2011)
#
colintedford
aaronpk: ah, that makes sense
#
aaronpk
you'll see a lot of things like that with the wiki :-) things that look super broken/awkward now, but they are there for some legacy mediawiki reason
#
colintedford
it seems like there should be a better way to handle that, except that would involve messing w/ MediaWiki, which is obvs not "better" :P
