A clever little CSS tool I ran across today that I'd never seen: https://cssstats.com/

cool
jjuran joined the channel
#
aaronpk
Cool but I have no idea what to do with that information
#
[Michael_Beckwit
it’d be good to see how you could reduce complexity

[Michael_Beckwit
“holy cow, i have 100 different colors specified?”
#
[Michael_Beckwit
“24 of those are really close in shade. I should get those synced to match. Consistency!”
wolftune joined the channel
#
aaronpk
I can't tell if it's telling me this is how many colors I'm actually using or just how many colors are defined in my CSS
#
aaronpk
and since I'm using a css framework, theres a bunch of rules defined that are never used
#
[Michael_Beckwit
i assume the latter, and probably in ALL the things it finds
#
[Michael_Beckwit
it’d be cool if it separated out by stylesheet

It's certainly interesting to put in some of the smaller hand-built websites that put out almost nothing in comparison to even a relatively simple WordPress install.
#
[chrisaldrich]
Picking up on the bookmark/like/favorite/repost conversation earlier, GWG, you might try making some of them on your site and see how you like using them (or not).
#
[chrisaldrich]
I've used several different versions of /read posts and still don't think I've got exactly what I want, but part of the fun is experimenting.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I think the prior context was in the #indieweb-dev channel, but a lot of the discussion was very user focused...

Hi there, y'all. :)
#
SpencerDub
Would anyone in here be able to help with some CSS questions I have regarding the Autonomie theme for WordPress at some point? Trying to take my old WordPress blog and wrangle it into a legit IndieWeb home for myself.
#
Ruxton
whats up
#
Ruxton
better off just aksing your question too, things move slowly here
#
SpencerDub
Got it. First, I've got some elements that are displaying out of alignment with the rest of the post body, and can't quite figure out why. Example here: https://spencerdub.me/blog/nisei-recommendations/
#
Loqi
[Spencer] Restructuring: Recommendations for NISEI’s Future
#
SpencerDub
Mostly looking at the images in the post and the "related posts" div at the end.
#
[datashaman]
aside: as soon as the gallery comes into view, all keyboard navigation stops working - page up, page down, everything
#
[datashaman]
even clicking on the background doesn't allow keys to be used - the gallery component is swallowing all the keyboard events
#
Ruxton
SpencerDub: the images are as expected if left aligned (the width for images/etc. is bigger than the post content body)
#
SpencerDub
Ah, okay, I'll go back and look at the post content.
#
Ruxton
try some different alignments
#
Ruxton
I think now you're on 'alignwide'
#
[chrisaldrich]
What is Autonomie?
#
Loqi
Autonomie is a highly semantic, responsive, accessible and search engine optimized WordPress Theme https://indieweb.org/Autonomie
#
[datashaman]
using firefox 73 on linux
#
SpencerDub
Looks like it was align-center, but I've played with the other options to see what they look like. That was an obvious one; thanks for your help and your patience.
#
Ruxton
SpencerDub: you'll want to find where #jp-relatedposts rule is set in the related-posts plugin you're using, change margin: 1em 0; to margin: 1em auto; and set a max-width of 700px that should get u started
#
SpencerDub
Yup, that did it. Thanks.
#
Ruxton
You'll want to write some more rules for the changing widths
#
[chrisaldrich]
SpencerDub, hopefully you're sorted out, but I remember some others having similar issues in the past which I think were documented here: https://github.com/pfefferle/Autonomie/issues/10

If you need more technical help on this, I'd recommend moving to the #indieweb-wordpress channel (otherwise the #indieweb-dev channel will work too).
#
SpencerDub
Oh right, channels! Will do. Thanks.

[chrisaldrich]
We tend to keep this channel on the less technical side... 🙂

What is chat?
#
Loqi
chat is informal messaging offered by numerous services, a few of which interoperate or bridge with each other, and also a set of brainstorms for what an amazing indieweb friendly chat web app/site could do https://indieweb.org/chat

Hello, I have an idea. I would like to complement the rel="me" link with a rel="trust" link that indicates which domains I trust. All domains are treated as equals (having 1.0 trust points to allocate as the domain owner wishes) . If I have two rel="trust" links on my domain (linking to Indieweb.org and Wikipedia.org), each one would earn 0.5 trust points. I imagine a grassroots movement of domain-based chains of trust.
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
aaronpk
"trust" is pretty vague... trust to do what?
#
[KevinMarks]
that sounds a bit like how page rank works - we have a prior attempt at this with vote links in microformats. http://microformats.org/wiki/vote-links
#
[jgmac1106]
if interested and has nothing to do with microformats annd mroe for large publishers but this is where we ended up on the first draft of credibility standards: https://credweb.org/reviewed-signals-internal-draft/

tomasmoberg there are a number of people playing with browser exensions where experts or anyone can rate trust on a liker scale

#
tomasmoberg
Thank you for the response. I think of a decentralized way of expressing trust for a source (e.g Wikipedia.org or Indieweb.org). Would not a domain-based trust system differ from a website-based one in that it would be more difficult to centralize, control by silos?
#
[jgmac1106]
i argued that webrings in way could offer a url based credibility signal
#
[jgmac1106]
if tomasmoberg is an expert at sprockets and he manages a ring of sprocket experts the sites with that ring badge have a credibility signal
#
[KevinMarks]
That's pretty much what we did at technorati, count distinct inbound links by domain as a quality indicator.
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
aaronpk
tomasmoberg: that still didn't answer my question? "Trust" to do what?
#
aaronpk
We have various rel values that already indicate specific kinds of trust, such as rel=me (I trust this other website to also represent me online) or rel=canonical (you should trust this other link as the canonical version of this page)
#
aaronpk
imo "trust" is too vague to be actionable, it needs to say something more specific

GWG
Just saw this...missed this feature previously
#
GWG
Reminds me of fragmentions
#
aaronpk
Wait that's wrong
#
aaronpk
browsers don't send the fragment in the request to the web server
#
aaronpk
so the fragment isn't visible to network admins like they're warning about
#
GWG
Isn't Forbes supposed to be better on the research side
#
GWG
They cite the Register, who cites a GitHub thread
#
aaronpk
Did browsers change that behavior and I didn't notice?
#
[jgmac1106]
gwg forbes is mainly just independent hacks publishing to the brand, they don't have many staff writers for online anymore
#
GWG
Either way, I completely missed this debate
#
aaronpk
link to GitHub thread?
#
Loqi
[dbaron] My high-level opinion here is that this a really valuable feature, but it might also be one where all of the possible solutions have major issues/problems. So I think the question we should think about is how the problems of the solution chosen here...
#
[schmarty]
oof, this quotes a "privacy researcher at Brave Browser" which talks about being able to view DNS traffic (which does not leak URL paths) and then out-of-context quotes "a principal engineer at Mozilla" saying basically that this is a hard problem with no specifics about this implementation 😩
#
Loqi
[bokand] Sorry for the delay, was on vacation and then catching up. Yes, this is shipping in M80 without a flag. We discussed this and other issues with our security team and, to summarize, we understand the issue but disagree on the severity so we're proc...
#
GWG
I meant to be asking about the spec
#
GWG
I didn't realize that it would prompt a discussion about the articles
#
GWG
Either way, I didn't take them seriously
#
GWG
Did we discuss this Scroll To Fragment proposal when it came out and I missed it in the chat?
#
[schmarty]
GWG: it was very much discussed here. especially trying to get the chrome team to pay attention to past work on fragmentions etc
#
GWG
I must have missed it somehow
#
GWG
Oh well
#
sknebel
aaronpk: they aren't claiming that the fragment gets sent in the DNS request

aaronpk (and others): I am not sure if "trust to do" is what I mean. I am looking for a way to create (domain-based) peer-trust-peer systems from below. Maybe possible without rel="trust".
#
[schmarty]
tomasmoberg: i think they were talking about the ways that "trust" can mean very different things in different contexts and for different people.
#
[schmarty]
for example i might "trust" your domain in the sense that i show webmentions from your website on my posts without verifying each by hand.
#
[schmarty]
however i that doesn't mean i would "trust" your domain to post content on my site, view private posts, etc.
#
[schmarty]
"trust" as a term doesn't mean much without discussing what that trust _enables_. i think that's what is meant by "trust to do what?" what capabilities are enabled by that trust relationship?

"trust to do what" is awesome framing
