Shared in the #indieweb-wordpress chat earlier, FB and IG are continuing to silo themselves off: https://wptavern.com/upcoming-api-change-will-break-facebook-and-instagram-oembed-links-across-the-web-beginning-october-24

[chrisaldrich]: wow. That's one nasty move. I see it resulting in a couple of things; some bad, some, maybe, not that bad: 1, classic linking to the content, without the content itself; 2, small sites completely broken; 3, big sites doing the same as before; 4, less web "content", but from a perspective, that's good: whatever stays will be unsiloed.

[Chris_Bongers]
Is there a way to "set" the author when sending webmentions from my site to another?
#
[Chris_Bongers]
Now this is empty, what data does it use to define the author?
#
jeremycherfas
Do you have an h-card?
#
swentel
many examples on that page
#
[Chris_Bongers]
I don't have a h-card, but will have a look at that authorship page

i feel called out

[tw2113]
but really with personal site domains, when is the “project” ever done?
[grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[tantek]
what is a domain name
#
Loqi
A personal domain is a domain name that you personally own, control, and use to represent yourself on the internet https://indieweb.org/domain_name

I just successfully defended my doctoral dissertation, which studies the values and work of building IndieWeb. I couldn’t have done this without so many kind people here who participated in interviews, explained technical concepts, helped me with development, and otherwise shared their experience. I am so grateful.
#
[jackjamieson]
Just popping in to say a big thank you to everyone at IndieWeb!
#
[jackjamieson]
I’ve been absent from IndieWeb things over the past while while I worked on writing and editing. I’m just popping in briefly to say thank you. I’ll be back when I’ve recovered some energy and will have more time.

[jackjamieson] You're posting your dissertation on your website thought right?! We need to be able to read it...
#
[chrisaldrich]
what is a dissertation?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "dissertation" yet. Would you like to create it?_ (Or just say "dissertation is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[chrisaldrich]
I thought we had an example of that for rhiaro already???
#
rhiaro

#
rhiaro
cool that there's another thesis with indieweb in [jackjamieson]!!
#
[chrisaldrich]
🙂 I just cut and pasted it from the first link I could find....
#
rhiaro
would love to read
#
rhiaro
[chrisaldrich]: no worries, where was the link?
#
[chrisaldrich]
patiently waits for the subdomain https://dr.jackjamieson.net/
#
[chrisaldrich]
rhiaro: it was from your twitter link/bio
#
rhiaro
[chrisaldrich]: oops, willfix :) thanks!

[jackjamieson]: wow, that's incredible. Congrats!
#
[jackjamieson]
[chrisaldrich] It will absolutely be on my website! A few final revisions and then I’ll figure out the formatting for the web
#
[jackjamieson]
rhiaro: I liked your dissertation! Oh, and please let me know if you have any suggestions for LaTeX to HTML conversion

rhiaro
[jackjamieson]: it's been a while since I thought about that sorry, and I wrote mine straight into HTML. I did have to send it through some latex thing at the commandline to get page numbers though, but I'v eforgotten the details now
#
rhiaro
[jackjamieson]: it was a bit of a hack to get it formatted for printing, but you probably aren' thaving that problem
#
rhiaro
[jackjamieson]: do ping me when yours is up :)
#
[jackjamieson]
rhiaro: Ah, that explains why yours is perfectly formatted for the web. I’ll let you know when it’s up
jonnybarnes and kevinsan joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich]
jackjamieson, I've not done it before, but you may be able to use pandoc for some of the conversion? Some LaTeX editors may have HTML conversion built in, but I haven't looked in a while.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I'm way behind where I wanted to be with my research into Pollen which may be useful too, but probably way more work than just doing it manually.
#
KartikPrabhu
there is a python code called Texsoup or something also
