#
[KevinMarks] I follow thousands of people on twitter, which means that statistically I don't see most of their posts
#
[KevinMarks] This is deliberate to ensure that I get a broad range of things
#
[tantek] do you trust the "algorithm" or do you keep resetting to latest tweets first?
#
[tantek] also, who's doing indie air pollution monitoring and contributing to PurpleAir? https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/high-tech-california-relies-startup-utah-see-how-smoky-its-n1074906
#
[tantek] I should say, POSSEing to PurpleAir
#
Loqi yea
#
[tantek] I feel GWG and aaronpk might have their own PM2.5 sensor at home which posts updates on their blog
#
aaronpk I do have that sensor, but haven't hooked it up to my website yet :)
#
GWG [tantek]: I don't actually
#
GWG I only have temperature, rain, wind, and humidity.
#
aaronpk tho I don't have a way to install it outside, so it would only be monitoring indoor air
#
[tantek] both are useful (indoors and outdoors sensors)
#
GWG aaronpk: Which sensor is this?
#
[tantek] PurpleAir maps indicate both distinctly
#
[tantek] GWG see article
#
aaronpk ah cool
#
GWG I'm not sure the air quality here is worrisome enough I would monitor it, but maybe.
#
[tantek] that's the best time, to start with a clean baseline so you know when to be worried
#
GWG aaronpk: Looking at the hardware, the monitor is a ESP8266, a BME280, and 2 PMS5003s
#
aaronpk -> #indieweb-dev :)
#
GWG Isn't that chat?
#
aaronpk depends if you're posting it to your website

sukil hi! This may be a bit off topic, but could somebody locate me in some generation based on these facts? (Link to personal site follows, I promise there's no tracking by me / ads / etc.) https://www.sukiletxe.eu/blog/do-i-have-no-generation/ Thanks!

#
[jeremycherfas] Seems to me you are between 2 and 3, but in any case, I wouldn’t worry about it. Just do what you are comfortable doing and progress from there.
#
[jeremycherfas] Oh, and welcome. People here are friendly and helpful.
#
sukil I'm not worried, just curious about the classification of people like me
#
sukil thanks

GWG https://david.shanske.com/2019/11/01/3018/ I need to iterate in this
#
Loqi [David Shanske] Just hacked up a script using Tasker for Android that extracts the location from the Southwest inflight wifi and posts it to my location tracking server… which is queried by my website. Fun
#
GWG Next... JetBlue

KempfCreative and [xavierroy] joined the channel
#
[xavierroy] [dshanske] are you releasing it someday?
#
GWG Releasing what?
#
[jgmac1106] I don't do lists, I do hashtags, let others curate for me
#
[jgmac1106] I cuurently have 35 hashtags in 3 lists in tweetdeck, if you could only still poll twitter searches
#
[jgmac1106] and I follow 4,300 people but that is just for h/t purposes

wolftune and [snarfed] joined the channel
#
[tantek] Good reason to post something. Get memories of something topical (like a discussion event) out of your head so you can focus on other things. Especially if you (or anyone!) does not have any notes about the event!
#
[Michael_Beckwit even just as a draft
#
[Michael_Beckwit or go oldschool..sticky note on the wall
#
[tantek] why post << Brainstorm why post: Get memories of something topical (like a discussion event) out of your head so you can focus on other things. Especially if you (or anyone!) does not have any notes about the event!

Loqi [indienews] New post: "National Blog Post Month (NaBloPoMo)" https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/11/01/national-blog-post-month/
akierig, [Michael_Beckwit, kensp, [KevinMarks], kolaente and [dougbeal] joined the channel
#
[dougbeal] What is NaBloPoMo
#
Loqi National Blog Posting Month (typically shortened NaBloPoMo) is a challenge to write a daily blog post for an entire month https://indieweb.org/NaBloPoMo
#
gRegorLove Inspired by Jamie, I decided spur-of-the-moment to participate in NaBloPoMo
#
dougbeal|imac I'm wondering if my first post will be a better name :)
#
gRegorLove Renaming NaBloPoMo? haha
#
dougbeal|imac NaNoWriMo isn't an Acronym. Ah, an Initialism
#
gRegorLove Good luck, 13 years of momentum with it. :) It's clunky but I kinda like it. It's fun to say out loud.
#
dougbeal|imac Oh, maybe I just want to do a 100 days project

sukil hi, dumb question. In your wiki you say that this community is rather diverse regarding views. So what qualifies as being part of the community? Specifically my opinions about owning content: I want to own my content (picking just the relevant parts, not including boring stuff like "TIL mattrices are learned in the same educational period by sciences' and Humanities' students" (real tweet),...
#
sukil ...and others' content with explicit consent (comments). Thus I don't really know what to think about webmention, bridgy, etc. This view may change (I investigated webmentions and asked about them in this same channel)
#
gRegorLove Welcome, sukil. If you have or want a personal website to own your content -- whatever content is important to you -- and you want to be part of the community, that's basically it. :)

gRegorLove No requirement to implement x, y, or z. We're exploring and documenting our experiences with owning our content.

mblaney hi Indieweb, I have a new project called https://i.haza.website
#
mblaney it's basically a hosted version of Dobrado, would love some people to test it out!
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
mblaney only thing is, it requires a spare domain name if you have one :-)
#
Loqi Mblaney has 3 karma in this channel over the last year (6 in all channels)
#
[jgmac1106] Mblaney++
#
[jgmac1106] What happens with subdomains? Have unlimited number of those?
#
mblaney thanks jgmac1106 would love and feedback you have on the website too.
#
mblaney *any
#
[jgmac1106] Was singing unicyclic.com praise as group social reader at all the OpenEd conferences
#
[jgmac1106] I.haza.domain + unicyclic....super duper intrigued...
#
mblaney unicyclic.com is becoming a Microsub server to power sites hosted on i.haza.website...
#
[jgmac1106] Mblaney++
#
mblaney you can use it for subdomains but they will each have their own login.
rainmanjam joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] See a way where 20-30 i.haza.domains I could all syndicate to one shared place... A shared public/private reader space
#
[jgmac1106] Gotta feed the kids and must be crazy late (early) your time but 200% stoked to play
#
mblaney nah it's 8am Saturday here so all good. will be around all day if people have questions/feedback!

#
mblaney thanks gRegorLove, today's job is to have my own website on there.
#
gRegorLove Love the design too
#
[jgmac1106] mblaney I can only change dns record of a domain not a sub...but I have some domains lying around I think
#
[jgmac1106] https://i.haza.website/index
#
[jgmac1106] I found it
#
[jgmac1106] it's redirecting back to your site....
#
[jgmac1106] gonna go to dev if it gets more technical
#
[jgmac1106] ohhh it's supposed and you renter the domain..
[tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] dietricha on mobile. Can you provide a time index? Or perhaps follow up with specifics in indieweb-chat channel?
#
[jgmac1106] done and now waiting for it to go live. I hope you do not manually spin up each instance....
#
[tantek] dietricha is it urgent or can t wait til Monday?
#
[jgmac1106] that was real smooth mblaney
#
dietricha [tantek]: it is not urgent. view at your leisure.
#
[jgmac1106] the one confusing step for me was after I made the domain changed the DNS record...I just went to my new domain which redirected to your domain..took me a second to realize I had to add domain second time and then get email prompt...other than it was super easy
#
[jgmac1106] ...sorry for using the word easy....manageable for someone who knows there way around DNS records and txt records....but really cool Malcom!!
#
mblaney awesome thanks jgmac1106! It's nearly completely automated but will see how long it takes. give me a few minutes I'm just fixing a few bugs in the process.
#
mblaney that's really interesting feedback though, I wonder if I can catch that redirect and use it to make the process more friendly...
#
[jgmac1106] Yeah maybe a popup or something (if you know when things are redirected) like "Great now re-enter your url to see if the DNS worked"
#
[KevinMarks] Trying it out, but my domain may be too new

#
jacky I've been having issues signing into my site via Indigineous on Android
#
mblaney jgmac1106 set up worked nearly as expected... you should've got another email to log in!
#
jacky going to open an issue in a few hours but wondering if anyone else had issues going through the sign in flow (namely redirecting to the callback path)
#
mblaney looks like I need to drop the automated 'www' subdomain idea... that requires another DNS record which I don't think is worth asking for or checking before creating the site.
#
[jgmac1106] https://ihazanothersite.jgregorymcverry.com/blog nice...I have one more website....
#
[jgmac1106] jacky I haven't bee able to in a long time. I just figured it was Known token issue as Monocle and Together have similar problems for me
