WHOA aaronpk reply-context from Twitter!
#
Loqi
tantek: colintedford left you a message 2 hours, 15 minutes ago: When I suggested first-few-word poetry titles as a model for post name/excerpts a year+ ago (http://indieweb.org/irc/2015-01-08#t1420772078393)? Turns out that's called an "incipit". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incipit
#
Loqi
tantek: colintedford left you a message 2 hours, 11 minutes ago: ...and it has some very old prior art :)
#
tantek
No I made up that phrase AFAIK
#
tantek
what is a reply context
#
Loqi
A reply context is the display of what a reply post is in reply to, including linking to that original post with in-reply-to markup, showing some amount of that original post like author name, icon, summary / ellipsed content, and datetime published https://indieweb.org/reply-context
#
tantek
the concept came from Twitter AFAIK
#
GWG
Think someone has been reading the wiki?
#
tantek
ok aaronpk, snarfed re: my character counting code:
#
tantek
1.I have no media / quoted tweet support in my code so that's unaffected
#
tantek
2. "usernames will no longer count when they're at the beginning of replies, giving users additional room for discussion" sounds interesting and not too bad of a change
#
tantek
actually this sounds more complicated: "@names that auto-populate at the start of a reply Tweet will not count towards the character limit (but new non-reply Tweets starting with a @mention will count, as will @mentions added explicitly by the user in the body of the Tweet)"
#
tantek
AND WTF: "new Tweets that begin with a username will no longer have to use the ”.@” convention in order to have those Tweets reach all of their followers." ?!?!?
#
tantek
so the character count now depends on whether you have an in-repy-to-tweet ID or not?
#
tantek
this is kind of messed up (in terms of how to detect) "@names that auto-populate at the start of a reply Tweet "
#
tantek
like if you literally delete them then retype them then it doesn't act the same? or cut then paste?
#
aaronpk
it will take some experimenting but my assumption was that any usernames that are in the reply chain will not be counted if they appear at the beginning of the tweet
AngeloGladding, shiflett and wolftune joined the channel
#
KevinMarks
Quoted tweet just means linking to a tweet at the end. So that would not count

Good morning IndieWeb!
#
sknebel
Good Morning Zegnat!
#
Zegnat
Is it me or are the timestamps on https://chat.indieweb.org/2016-09-19 an hour off? (Switch to CET time.)
#
Zegnat
Oh, hmm, something else must be going on. The realtime-logs show us as being 2 hours before actual time. (ping aaronpk)
#
aaronpk
That matches what Google says the local time CET is
#
aaronpk
ah yeah the realtime logs are stuck in UTC
#
aaronpk
i will have to localize them in JS, but the page is localized on the server side
#
sknebel
Zegnat: CET != CEST for the older entries
#
aaronpk
I think there's already an issue open for it
#
Zegnat
Or just get rid of timezones entirely.
#
sknebel
IndieTime. aka whatever loqis clock thinks it is right now :P
#
Zegnat
CET doesn't seem to be CEST for current entries. When I visit chat.indieweb.org in a new private tab it shows my good morning as "06:37"
#
aaronpk
It is 6:37 in CET right now tho right?
#
sknebel
but we *are* in CEST right now
#
sknebel
CET would be 1 hour off
#
sknebel
which would be 6:37
#
Zegnat
switches to Europe/Amsterdam
#
aaronpk
Whats your timezone name that takes in to account DST?
#
Zegnat
aaronpk: I am just use to CET automatically becoming CEST
#
sknebel
aaronpk: does the voice-feature here in the channel require authenticating to nickserv?
#
Zegnat
Europe/Amsterdam takes DST into account for me. CET does not. Which arguably is correct, just wasn't what I expected.
#
aaronpk
Good night! See you all in CEST tomorrow!
#
Loqi
goodnight!

!tell aaronpk did you figure out the origins of "reply-context" ?
#

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

e.g. BarnabyWalters referred to them on 2016-09-09 https://chat.indieweb.org/2013-05-09 many days before /reply-context was created

#
tantek
!tell aaronpk I'm seeing chat log of chat.indieweb.org/2013-04-29 link its permalinks to the day after: 2013-04-30! Possibly due to the timezone I'm? However I havent' changed the timezone in my settings on my Mac!

petermolnar: well… unless it is e-content you can strip HTML tags, I think? I seem to vaguely recall the e-* prefix as something saying “this value incorporates HTML”

let me check the available things in the parsed entry

Zegnat: petermolnar: content.value and content.html, e.g. http://microformats.org/wiki/h-entry#Example

[Tantek Çelik] h-entry is a simple, open format for episodic or datestamped content on the web. h-entry is often used with content intended to be syndicated, e.g. blog posts. h-entry is one of several open microformat standards suitable for embedding data in HTML/H...

you're caught up to master?

and you're using the same version of php-mf2 as circle?

snarfed
those are my first two guesses. can look more later

I don't have php-mf2 installed, unless the bin/install* did this

since when did javascript and writing content in JSON become "super simple" ?
#
@krisshaffer
@jgmac1106 @kevinmarks Because plain-old HTML won't do what I want it to do, which is make the site super-simple for users to clone/remix.

miklb: 15 minutes for a bare html website is pretty good
snarfed joined the channel
#
miklb
KartikPrabhu I guess my thinking is, if you are comfortable enough writing HTML to hand-roll a website, you can get a site up pretty quick. If you aren't, then what good does a bare HTML page do for you?
#
miklb
get a site up pretty quick in a variety of places.
#
KartikPrabhu
well if you are comfortable enough writing javascript and JSON then you can get a site up pretty quick. If you aren't then waht good does javascript+Json do for you?
#
KartikPrabhu
you can dimiss anything by starting with "if you are comfortable enough..."
#
KartikPrabhu
KevinMarks' point was that it is much easier and "super simple" to set up HTML than some javascript+JSON do-hickie
#
miklb
gives up
#
sknebel
Could it be that you two are mixing up two totally separate discussions?
#
KevinMarks1
the 15 minutes was empirical BTW
#
Zegnat
You do know how the techstack works though, KevinMarks1. I definitely needed more than 15 minutes to walk Emma through HTML at IWC Düsseldorf
#
KartikPrabhu
Zegnat: I bet walking through JS+JSON will take much longer
#
KevinMarks1
with me giving hints over messenger
#
KevinMarks1
10 minutes to clone, rename, turn on gh pages
#
KevinMarks1
5 minutes to edit the html in github directly to show his name and links
#
KevinMarks1
(I did the DNS pointing part, but he had a website on GH)
#
KevinMarks1
if it's ease of setup you want, there is blogger/tumblr/wordpress but wiht implied structure
#
KevinMarks1
if you're exlpaining that teh web is text you can edit, I think this is clearer

#
miklb
my argument is there is a lot more under the hood with gh pages to render that html, and you could have a more robust "website" in about the same amount of time there. I'm not advocating using my jekyll project, but there are plenty of jekyll sites you could do the same steps on GitHub and have something more that is still pretty much just HTML and markdown

what is tumblr?

Tumblr is a popular content hosting silo, especially for found images & video, that explicitly supports multiple types of posts, and through free domain mapping, a content hosting service as well https://indieweb.org/Tumblr
