#
[KevinMarks] Blogos-sphere has a hint of logos. My favourite one is helico-pter
#
[KevinMarks] It fits with the "web log" to "weblog" to "we blog" to blog transformation

Zegnat Good morning IndieWeb!
#
GWG Morning, Zegnat
#
cambridgeport90[ It’s certainly a gray one here in mass. Good morning, nonetheless.

Zegnat We’ve been having rain while the sun is out today. Little confusing when you exit the house and suddenly get wet

#
[Rose] I’m feeling like I want a session on private/protected posts/data at Brighton
[aaronpk] joined the channel
#
[aaronpk] Yes! Me too
#
[Rose] I have lots of data I would like somewhere, but I don’t want everyone to see it. So I have a use case. And I don’t think people need to see how much time I spend playing Zelda 😛
#
[aaronpk] Also I have some design questions about how to present daily summary/daily totals on my site
#
[Rose] summaries and totals of what?
#
[aaronpk] Steps for one
#
[Rose] FitBit data I presume?
#
[Rose] I would like to get that out of Health, which is doable. I just need to actually do it
#
[aaronpk] But it applies to anything that doesn't make sense to be associated with a specific time during the day like the rest of my posts
#
[aaronpk] It's more a question of how I want to show this on my site more than how to get the data
#
Zegnat I am more interested in finding out how to collect the data.
#
Zegnat wants an opensource fitness tracker

#
[aaronpk] I made a session ideas section on my user page like you [Rose] good idea!
#
[Rose] Thanks, I always forget my ideas!
#
jeremycherfas gives zegnat an old-fashioned mechanical step counter to wear on his belt
#
[Rose] Muahaha
#
[jgmac1106] yes the 50K number of steps was chosen at random in 1950's because the Japanese symbol for 50k looked a lot like the symbol for life
#
jeremycherfas What 50k number? The only number I've heard regularly is 10k
dhanesh95, dhanesh95_, dougbeal| and [grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] Yes it's not 50k that is huge
#
[grantcodes] But jgmac1106 is right it was a random number with no scientific meaning
dhanesh95 joined the channel
#
jeremycherfas Not entirely random, but agreed no strong meaning.
#
dougbeal| Good morning indieweb

#
[tantek] Aaronpk your daily archive pages could be a good place to show daily summary info like steps and such
#
aaronpk yeah that is the only thing i've been able to come up with so far
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[tantek] Sparkline on home page one pixel per day? Red pixel at end for current day in progress?
#
aaronpk that'd work for things like steps!
#
aaronpk can do that on the month pages too

#
[jgmac1106] Sorry the 10,000 steps a day. Will try to locate the NPR story. Was fascinating. Just a pedometer company in 1950's
[Michael_Beckwit joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] Just sent an Email to my local chamber of commerce offering to run a free session on getting an accessible menu online
#
[jgmac1106] Only have like three restaurants in town so a bit more manageable of 33% of places respond

[tantek] Facebook << Example of profiting from a political ad with misinformation: https://twitter.com/ewarren/status/1183019897804197888
#
@ewarren We intentionally made a Facebook ad with false claims and submitted it to Facebook’s ad platform to see if it’d be approved. It got approved quickly and the ad is now running on Facebook. Take a look: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EGruUMbWsAAzygQ.png (twitter.com/_/status/1183019897804197888)
