#
[tantek] what is a URL shortener
#
Loqi URL shortener is a service that turns a typical longer URL, like a permalink, into a much shorter URL, typically using a short domain, often per-site both for some silos, and several indieweb sites https://indieweb.org/URL_shortener

[Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose] That time should work for me! It just shows at 5:30pm in the event calendar I subscribed to
friedcell, KartikPrabhu and [voss] joined the channel
#
Zegnat Oh? Which calendar is that?
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
[Rose] The one linked somewhere in the Wiki?
#
[Rose] https://indieweb.org/Events#Add_events_to_your_calendar
#
[Rose] Thatone
#
sknebel that's one of the problems with the current "all hwcs for a day on a page": they share the time in hte markup
#
[Rose] That is a problem, but I added HWC to my calendar for now.
#
[Rose] And I also booked flights for Berlin and Düsseldorf, just looking for somewhere to stay in Berlin
KartikPrabhu, [pfefferle], mickael, mickael_, [grantcodes], nitot, stratis[m] and markoong joined the channel
#
Zegnat I think I am going to shoot for Berlin rather than Düsseldorf. Still need to see.
#
sknebel right, I could probably start looking for a cancelable hotel for DUS
#
Zegnat I no longer have a by-default place to sleep in DUS. And I think I would rather visit Berlin again than DUS. Though I can be persuaded otherwise
#
GWG Zegnat: I did enjoy the Holiday Inn.
#
GWG Except for the wifi cutting out
#
Zegnat In Berlin? Yeah, room was great. Breakfast was good too, though maybe on the expensive side

[jgmac1106] Trying not to use Slack this semester to reduce number of tools and spaces but I am gonna miss DMs....so many more emails in my future.....

#
[schmarty] the linux comparison feels pretty strange but a lot of that story resonates with me.

[kevinmarks] and Brad open sourced lots of infrastructure

[kevinmarks] memcached and OpenID being the big ones
snarfed joined the channel
#
jacky wait LiveJournal "invented" OpenID and Memcached?
snarfed and [voss] joined the channel
#
[voss] Brad Fitzpatrick, who started LiveJournal, authored OpenID and Memcached.
#
jacky today I learned
#
[kevinmarks] they also did a good job on making available update flows - individual account feeds, pinging and a site-wide stream of changes
#
[kevinmarks] when they say 'we invented everything facebook built later' they were telling the truth
#
[kevinmarks] LJ had mood icons which prefigure emoji
wolftune joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks] it had a very subtle 'who can see this' model
