jeremycherfas !tell Eddie great formatting for easy read and it syncs notes back to Pinboard, though that could use some love.
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
Loqi jeremycherfas: [eddie] left you a message 8 hours, 48 minutes ago: any special/interesting features about Paperback that you find helpful?

#
Zegnat no problem! :)
#
Zegnat Interesting issue that was opened against the feed subscription service I use, Feedbin: https://github.com/feedbin/feedbin/issues/280
#
Loqi [FredericJacobs] #280 Suggestion: Dealing with Information Overload
#
Zegnat Clearly everyone sees this information overload as an issue :)

[jgmac1106] fedwiki never took off...I think I still own fedwiki.me
#
Zegnat At last year’s IndieWeb Summit, Ward Cunningham ran a session on getting started with fed.wiki. Would be interesting to see if any participants ended up using it

jgmac1106 I played with fedwiki for a long time, Mike Holden made a WP version as well…never gained traction
#
jgmac1106 my server is down, haven’t touched it in long time, could try to get it back up

#
Zegnat Always scratch your own itch first, jgmac1106 :) If you do not itch for a wiki, do not waste time on it
#
[jgmac1106] it was four or five years ago, saw a lot of educational potential but my students couldnt understand the ui
#
Zegnat I am not even sure I always understad MediaWiki’s UI, and that’s been around for ages, ha

#
swentel [eddie], if I pushed something to the indigenous website, will it rebuild automatically, or should I ping you ?
#
swentel s/pushed/push (nothing in yet)
#
[eddie] Currently you’ll need to ping me
#
Loqi [eddie]: jeremycherfas left you a message 7 hours, 54 minutes ago: great formatting for easy read and it syncs notes back to Pinboard, though that could use some love.
#
[eddie] But all I have to do is run git pull so its pretty easy
#
swentel ok
#
swentel close to go public with the android app. even though it's still missing features, what it /can/ do is already more than enough to go live :)
#
[eddie] Yeah, that was my rationale for the iOS version too
#
[eddie] It was good enough (although I still need to do a new update, oops!)
#
[eddie] Congrats! It’s always exciting
#
swentel especially with aperture being open and snarfeds bridge, more people can now use all features more easily
#
swentel and it almost doesn't crash :)
jgmac1106_ joined the channel
#
Zegnat “and it almost doesn't crash” - software has been sold in worse states
#
jgmac1106_ what is an orcid?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "orcid" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "orcid is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
jgmac1106_ Orcid is a is a nonproprietary alphanumeric code to uniquely identify scientific and other academic authors and contributors. This addresses the problem that a particular author's contributions to the scientific literature or publications in the humanities can be hard to recognize as most personal names are not unique, they can change (such as with marriage), have cultural differences in name order, contain inconsistent use of first-name abbreviation
#
Loqi ok
#
jgmac1106_ and employ different writing systems. It provides a persistent identity for humans

sknebel 30 minutes until vhwc

#
AngeloGladding [kevinmarks] that was a great read -- i've always loved the garden/stream metaphors, hence the [rainforest/jungle] canopy -- decentralized wiki/chat should be something we collectively move towards -- i think those two, in a one-click, zero config (Tor hidden service based) reference implementation along with an h-card and a rel=me generator would be a good use of our time

aaronpk srsly
#
Loqi aaronpk: [eddie] left you a message 19 hours, 20 minutes ago: I have investigated a Kindle compatible file output from Node.js in the past as part of a plane to have a Microsub to Kindle service but haven’t gotten any further than doing a prototype html to Kindle file conversion and then opening the file in Kindle to test
#
aaronpk hah nice eddie
#
aaronpk omg I forgot I added venue search to quill's event interface and it's so nice

[cleverdevil] Apple has informed me that they're still actively looking into my issues submitting Indiepaper for iOS to TestFlight after 60 days. No resolution in sight or timeline.
#
[eddie] What??
#
[eddie] 😵
#
@colinjohnston ↩️ I hope more publishers become aware of the advantages of the POSSE approach (Publish on your Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere). https://indieweb.org/POSSE (twitter.com/_/status/1037388163247816704)
#
[eddie] That’s crazy
#
[cleverdevil] I got pretty testy in my latest reply.
#
[cleverdevil] The poor agent on the other end of it said that she hadn't emailed me with updates since there were no updates to give, but that she could email me weekly with non-updates if I wanted.
#
[cleverdevil] Sigh.
#
[eddie] 🤦
#
[cleverdevil] I mean, I sympathize with engineers debugging problems. But... 60 days?!
#
[eddie] Yeah, that’s a long time. I guess iOS beta time probably is the slowest time to get anything fixed
#
[eddie] I’m guessing they aren’t even touching it until iOS 12 ships
#
[eddie] although you would think it would be different teams
#
[cleverdevil] Yeah, I figure that it won't get fixed until iOS 12 is out for a few weeks.
