Just another? Like any other?

[chrisaldrich]: [jeremycherfas] left you a message 5 hours, 50 minutes ago: I tried to make my most recent bread post h-recipe

[chrisaldrich]: Well, I'm redoing the templates in Post Kinds.
#
GWG
I haven't done that in a while.

GWG I'm rethinking using a callback. Or scraping threaded comments for now.
#
GWG
miklb, you see why the WordPress decisions can be hard

As a heads up, the Ghost lead dev just confirmed they still aren't interested in adding MF2 markup: https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/issues/290
#
jaduncan[m]
"At the moment we still don't think that the microformats2 approach is the right way to go or will offer significant benefits beyond our existing structured data -- particularly at the cost of a significant amount of additional clutter in the HTML"
#
miklb
same as it ever was when it comes to WP
#
miklb
isn't Ghost node?
#
GWG
miklb: With WP, I tried to get them to standardize the adding of markup to make it easier for anyone to do it.
#
jaduncan[m]
Ghost is node, yep.
#
jaduncan[m]
I was considering it over WP. Having the offer of a PR bluntly refused has made me think that it's not going to be an overly good use of time to hack on it.
#
miklb
I think kevinmarks built a IndieWeb site with Ghost.

So why did mf end up as class names rather than some other HTML attribute?
#
Loqi
[keithjgrant]: snarfed left you a message 1 week ago: https://github.com/keithjgrant/omnibear looks awesome! could be a good building block for https://snarfed.org/posting-to-the-indieweb-from-your-phone , ben_thatmustbeme's micropub phone app (forgot name), etc

[keithjgrant]: because class names are the easier ones?

[kevinmarks]
Because class names are for classifying things semantically
#
[kevinmarks]
We have some rels as well

[kevinmarks]
I did make xoxo for parsing <ol> and <dl> but that was a bit too prescriptive
#
aaronpk
it's interesting that his main reason is that using JSON-LD islands "just works" because it avoids any issues around conflicting with themes. which is the same problem wordpress people struggle with.
#
aaronpk
tho his later assertion that microformats will add "a significant amount of clutter" is silly, because look at this PR https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/pull/29/files
#
aaronpk
vs 40 lines of JSON that wouldn't otherwise be there to support schema.org....

I could do another backcompat hack, but I am not convinced Ghost is widespread enough

Just read your comment on the Ghost issue, [kevinmarks], but there are definitely public and open-source JSON-LD/microdata parsers. E.g. jkphl made one: http://micrometa.jkphl.is/

Hmm, 4 videos in my YouTube “favourites” have been deleted. And that also removes metadata so no clue what they were to begin with. Apparently I am going to have to do YT favourites offline.

Just noticed that my POSSE'd posts to Flipboard about #IndieWeb are algorithmic-ally tagged as "Signal Processing".… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/835911258893250560

Just on the offchance... :) has someone here successfully found a low-power external hard drive they can directly power from an rpi 3? (nominally, it claims to provide 1000mA on the port.)
#
aaronpk
haven't tested this on a pi, but it's pretty low power: https://www.sandisk.com/home/ssd/extreme-510-ssd

aaronpk: hm, interesting - thanks for the pointer

hm, /micropub-brainstorming has a bunch of stuff that's "solved", does it make sense to start an "archive" page for those?
