Good morning Loqi, good morning Indieweb.

Hi sketchess
#
sketchess
Hello Jeremy. Nice to see you.
#
jeremycherfas
I’m exhausted after yesterday’s long session, so probably won’t do anything IndieWeb today. Just hanging out here.
#
sketchess
By the way, do you know why tantek hates the W3school so much. o.O Just catching up on logs and wondering.
#
jeremycherfas
No idea, I’m afraid

I sometimes find it useful, mostly when I cannot remember a simple thing.

Their information is often wrong or out of date, and they are not part of the w3c
#
sketchess
Did someones freenode connection went down too?
#
[kevinmarks]
MDN is a better reverence
#
[kevinmarks]
*reference
#
sketchess
Good morning kevinmarks. Do you have an example?
#
sketchess
And do you mean the mozilla developers website?

I see why you like it. For my quick look ups it is not suited. It handles subject in a pretty advanced way. I like kulturbanausen even more.
#
[kevinmarks]
Mozilla's is better written, and has good crosslinking
#
sketchess_
Great. I have an quiet house and my machines are dying on me. Sigh.
#
[kevinmarks]
I don't know that one, is it a German language site?
#
jeremycherfas
I agree. MDN is better. Clearer, more explicit.
#
sketchess
I never rely on one page only, kevinmarks. It depends on what I need at a moment. And sometime I turn to W3Scholl because of its build in test area.
#
jeremycherfas
adds to bookmarks
#
jeremycherfas
Also funny that you chose that example, kevinmarks, as the IE hack was where I first came across tantek’s name.
#
sketchess
I have quite a collection of bookmarks to compare stuff. ;D
#
sketchess
I guess you wouldn't like html.net either.
#
sketchess

#
sketchess
So. Time to turn to writing, coding and recording. I have no idea, what I probably wanna say. xD

Css tricks is a good site too. They have the best flexbox page: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/
#
sketchess
Interesting link. What is your main field of web development, kevinmarks? What are the goals you hunting for?

Re W3Schools, we (well, some people) used to refer to w3fools.com. They seem to have changed their content around a bit these days, previously they tried to really highlight why they thought W3Schools behaviour was bad: https://web.archive.org/web/20131225201950/http://www.w3fools.com/

This is not quite what the #indieweb calls a silo quit, but what should we call it? https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2017/08/more_on_my_link.html

jeremycherfas you might want to read my comment on licit.li instead of in your known view. The whole HTML-stripping-for-comments makes it a bit iffy imho
#
jeremycherfas
Zegnat: I quite understand your point about not being the target audience. That’s why I think collaborating would be a good idea. And I liked Calum work in Nurnberg, but I don’t think I’ve seen his site lately. Maybe later I will watch the Refresh session.
#
Zegnat
sl007, interesting how those articles focus on adtech, while a lot of us are puzzling how it all applies to our own small sites
#
Zegnat
jeremycherfas, agreed! Well, you have my support if you need a technical eye in any case :)
#
sl007
Well - this particular article focusses on SILOs dealing with our data and the benefit for our own sites is greater than the harm because more "PaaS" solutions would become selfhosted solutions.

Interesting difference in two adjacent notifications I just saw on FB
#
[tantek]
"User posted about Eventname" -> clicking it goes to an RSVP post permalink!
#
[tantek]
"User is ? attending Eventname" (dtpublished, ? audience), linked link preview of event
#
[tantek]
The other notification is:
#
[tantek]
"User2 posted in Eventname" -> clicking it goes to a comment on the Event permalink itself
#
[tantek]
Note the very subtle "about" vs "in" wording in the notifications
