The differentiation between since-invited and since-joined seems obnoxious; i believe the default for new rooms is since-invited these days

btw re: private posts, I'd say a good starting point is FB's "Public", "Friends", "Only Me", "More Options" dropdown that they put on every post (with the little lock)

Indiewebify.me isn't recognising the rel-me back links
#
KevinMarks
But indieweb.org is

from what silo(s)?

via aaronpk: USB life expectancy? Why not MySQL life expectancy? http://www.flashbay.com/blog/usb-life-expectancy

oh gosh

aaronpk
i wonder if indiewebify.me is comparing the domain case sensitive

Oh, tricky
#
[kevinmarks]
My last 2 weeks have been about reviving old sites and making them static
#
[kevinmarks]
For Christopher and Dan
#
miklb
[kevinmarks] did you use Hugo?
#
[kevinmarks]
I did for Christopher
#
[kevinmarks]
For Dan it's wordpress plus spiderpig
#
[kevinmarks]
As they are inactive sites
#
[kevinmarks]
Christopher's has a spiderpig mirror too
#
miklb
interesting. So more of an archival site?
#
KevinMarks
I thought I was going to have to get it out of archive.org, but I managed to resuscitate the wordpress site, and then spiderpig it
#
KevinMarks
So they're backed up to github
#
KevinMarks
Though I didn't relativise all of them
#
KevinMarks
Citmedia.org had an impressive number of posts pages
#
KevinMarks
133 pages of posts
#
miklb
that link just did a couple of redirects and wound up at the blog.
#
KevinMarks
Yes, there was a bigger homepage before, the they went to just blog
#
KevinMarks
I could have made this the root, but any external links point at /blog
#
GWG
Okay, I just took over the sending of pingbacks. Later I may take over the receiving of them.

KevinMarks, aaronpk: The indiewebify.me twitter rel-me check not working is actually a problem in the rel-me lib: https://github.com/indieweb/indiewebify-me/issues/47
#
KevinMarks
Interesting. Any ideas on github?
#
gRegorLove
That chat link there has more, but that's the only gh issue I know of.

because of the non-availability of micropub cli tools I was forced to use the wordpress command line interface wpcli.phar to build my private-instagram-posts-into-wordpress importer :/

Good morning tantek !

Zegnat, are you coming to IWC Brighton?
#
tantek
I need to post my RSVP!
#
GWG
I intend to watch it. Is someone streaming?
#
tantek
GWG we should! Perhaps ask adactio? Not sure who else is co-organizing
#
Zegnat
Depending on the WiFi, I plan to spam IRC again ;)
#
GWG
I would love to watch.

I left one with adactio last time I was there

the one that aaronpk gave me 😂
#
tantek
(deliberately, so he could hook up HWC Brighton)

aaronpk was the "next indiewebcamp" header a special case?
#
aaronpk
it was part of the old wiki theme

aaronpk
s/part of/hacked into
#
tantek
ah. I noticed it missing when I went to indieweb.org so I could RSVP to the next indiewebcamp
#

aaronpk, this good enough to capture it? https://github.com/indieweb/wiki/issues/36

aaronpk
yep thanks

does anyone know if https://checkmention.appspot.com caches results/hosts? I'm trying to test an implementation, but it seems to be using an old webmention endpoint for my site
#
dkm
i.e. I've changed the webmention endpoint in the Location header of my page, but checkmention.appspot.com is still using the old one
#
dkm
alternatively, if any of you all want to mention/reply to https://hazyblue.me/posts/2016-09-05-welcome-to-the-indieweb, I'm trying to a) check if the comment vs. mention filter works, and b) work on how comments/mentions are displayed

#
KevinMarks1
gah, I am being attacked by float madness
#
cweiske
hands KevinMarks an "intval()" call
#
KevinMarks1
I don't know what changed, but suddenly the floated images in the post summaries are running south of the sidebar in http://www.lifewithalacrity.com/
#
tantek
clear usually makes floats go south
#
KevinMarks1
hm
#
KevinMarks1
so the sidebar clearing is pushing the others down?
#
tantek
possibly. depends on document order / tree
#
KartikPrabhu
KevinMarks1: the problem seems to be that your sidebar is float and the images are float but not the summary and all that
#
KevinMarks1
but if I don't clear the 2 in the sidebar then they don't stack vertically
#
KartikPrabhu
float is very troublesome in implementing a grid layout
#
cweiske
flex ftw
#
KevinMarks1
maybe I should flex the sidebar and keep the floats for the posts
#
KartikPrabhu
yes. I would try using flex for both the sidebar and the <div> container for the articles and float the images
#
KevinMarks1
I was trying to keep faith with the tufte CSS
#
KevinMarks1
but it is already a bit problematic for this
#
KevinMarks1
I coudl have sworn this was working last night, but apparently not

aaronpk: webmention.rocks, well, rocks
#
KevinMarks1
grid seems as confusing as float, TBH
#
Zegnat
KevinMarks1, there is always display:table;
#
KevinMarks1
so is the RH column an <aside> or a <nav>
#
KartikPrabhu
i would say <aside>

flexing it works for full width; now I need ot think about the narrow option (where I had expanding links before)

!tell tbrb are HWC Edinburgh still happening weekly on Tuesdays? Haven't seen much discussion on IRC or photos - just making sure: https://indieweb.org/Homebrew_Website_Club#Weekly (and if not, please update frequency there!)

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

!tell Jeena is monthly still the plan for HWC Göteborg? Or can you update (perhaps with restart date)? https://indieweb.org/Homebrew_Website_Club#Gothenborg

I think Jeena recently got back from his vacation and was planning to start it up again.

hm, I can't toggle a <details> open with css
#
tantek
frankly the whole details / summary thing was insufficiently prototyped / incubated
#
tantek
hmm - did Loqi stop showing tweet mentions of IndieWebCamp ?
#
tantek
or or from superfeedr for that matter. or is Loqi just ignoring @-replies? (I don't think so because I think I've seen some from KevinMarks )

KevinMarks1
we need a formal way to do tabs and toggle instead of the checkbox/radio button tricks
#
KevinMarks1
details/summary is an attempt at toggle that misses the tabs case
snarfed joined the channel
#
tantek
KevinMarks: I went down this road of attempting to style abstract semantic elements with different UI styles in earlier versions of CSS3-UI and gave up because it just didn't capture enough, and was a mismatch for how HTML input/UI elements were designed / behave.
#
KevinMarks1
now that every framework has tabs and concertinas, is there enough art to converge?
#
KevinMarks1
anyway, http://www.lifewithalacrity.com/ now uses flexbox and the magic of flex-direction: column-reverse; to fold the sidebar up
#
KevinMarks1
in theory this is what we'd use Web components
tantek joined the channel
#
KartikPrabhu
KevinMarks1 I don't see the relation with webcomponents which is HTML markup and layout
#
KevinMarks1
I meant for tabs and toggles - sorry, mixing 2 ideas
#
KartikPrabhu
well if you are using JS which web components require you could do the same with classes.
#
KartikPrabhu
i.e. <my-web-component> might as well be <div class="my-web-component">
