[wiobyrne] Want to take our Open Pedagogy book and throw it on a Dead Simple WordPress site? We could do each chapter as a post and encourage review through webmentions
#
Zegnat
jgmac1106, honest question, why WordPress? A book doesn’t sound like a thing that you keep adding to, so seems the perfect usecase for SSG
#
jgmac1106
I have grav, scalar, GitHub books as option, on gDocs now because a document there is more open for my audience than a GitHub repo
#
jgmac1106
it was just on my mind due to convo [wiobyrne] and [chrisaldrich] were having about academic publishing and revision trails
#
jgmac1106
An unwritten and unfinished book, you are right I haven't been adding. Due to publisher last August. Need to finish

[skippy] great post. I have most of my tweets backed up here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B1GfJ-t-9N7RzTGVRBS-jlaWglOFfeW6Tp_1NCq2T3o/edit#gid=0 (well 9 spreadsheets to date) I wonder if a script could ever be written to import these to Known or WordPress

i'd be happy to share the scripts I cooked up to massage my tweets. All PHP command line driven. Should be easy enough to make something that WordPress could import.

i need to now go back through all my tweets to fetch media for local storage. But that's a minor improvement for another day.

I still want to see us double our registration numbers in the next 2 weeks

Wow that’d be awesome. It already appears to be north of 50

oh did I count wrong?

checking tito..
#
aaronpk
we have 36 people registered right now
#
[cleverdevil]
Maybe I am misreading
#
aaronpk
typically a bunch of people don't show up, so I'd like to have 30-40 people actually there. based on past years, it'll take ~50 registered to get there
#
[cleverdevil]
Ah I see. It’s at like 40+ now.

looks like conferences have same statistics as weddings

Hah, my map for yesterday on my first flight since implementing location tracking came out awesome - https://cleverdevil.io/s/OfIY2u78WLVMueZbkdqv.jpg
#
aaronpk
next time get a window seat and you'll probably get the actual flight path!
#
[kevinmarks]
that's a long enough journey to worry about map projections…
#
aaronpk
Planes don't fly in straight lines so there's your first problem
#
[cleverdevil]
I didn’t end up joining WiFi from my phone. I will on the way back and we shall see what happens.
#
aaronpk
GPS works in airplane mode, you don't need to join Wi-Fi. I wrote Overland so that it can buffer data while offline.
[grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes]
Together would be better if I had more time to spend on it / didn't get distracted by other projects 😅
#
[kevinmarks]
I've had wifi geolocation on planes put me in a different airport than either one I flew between before
#
[cleverdevil]
[grantcodes] it would be better if I was more up to speed on React too! 🤣
#
[kevinmarks]
I had it put me somewhere in the countryside on a different train when I got off at Kings Cross this morning
#
[cleverdevil]
[aaronpk] ah of course. I was in an aisle seat maybe? I also rebooted my phone at some point so that may be a contributing factor.
#
aaronpk
Yeah Wi-Fi positioning has some fundamental problems with Wi-Fi hotspots that move
snarfed joined the channel
#
aaronpk
[cleverdevil]: yea it only works from window seats in the big planes
#
aaronpk
It can really only see out the one window which is barely enough for it to work. In the middle of the plane it has barely any visibility of the sky so it fails pretty quick
#
[cleverdevil]
Makes sense.
#
[kevinmarks]
do you put your phone on the window ledge bit?
#
[kevinmarks]
it's kind of a shame that the plane can't send it's location to onboard phones in wifi headers
#
aaronpk
Yea sometimes I sandwich it between the window and the shade while the shade is down. But sometimes it works just in the seatback pocket too
#
GWG
aaronpk, my getting an aisle seat is more important to me than a GPS fix
#
[cleverdevil]
I feel the same way GWG 😉
#
[cleverdevil]
Unless I’m in first class.
#
aaronpk
GWG: yeah tbh I've been getting aisle seats more often latel
#
aaronpk
Especially on flights I've done a lot before
#
GWG
I am usually not in business class
#
aaronpk
if I'm going somewhere new then it's kind of fun to get the actual gps trail
#
GWG
I did spring for even more space to IWS, but I only do that on flights over 5 hours
#
[cleverdevil]
I travel enough that I get upgraded most of the time.
#
aaronpk
At one point I wrote a little script that parsed out the JSON data from the in flight status web page and saves it locally. I need to turn that into a mobile app so I can run it for more of the flight
#
GWG
aaronpk, isn't each airline different?
#
aaronpk
They all use gogo
#
GWG
JetBlue, my usual carrier, doesn't
#
aaronpk
I haven't actually checked but I suspect there aren't that many different systems under the hood
#
GWG
Maybe I will try getting some samples en route to you
#
GWG
By the way, aaronpk, speaking of which, we didn't photo document our Meetup
#
[kevinmarks]
I like a window seat because then I can sleep without people climbing over me
#
GWG
You did call it an impromptu HWC
#
GWG
KevinMarks, I need to ambulate
#
aaronpk
Oh no you're right!
#
GWG
I just realized it
snarfed joined the channel
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: You are pursuing areas that I want to get fixed
#
GWG
Location, flight tracking, etc
#
aaronpk
Oh yea the other flight tracking trick I've done is to use the FlightAware api to track my plane from my server
