hello
#
[chrisaldrich]
What is everyone working on tonight?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "everyone working on tonight" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "everyone working on tonight is ____", a sentence describing the term)

My site's alive again ... though evidently autommatic raised their prices. I am now paying $240 a year for Jetpack premium. I have a few more settings to fix,but other than that.
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
i'm struggling to determine how it's worth that much money a year
#
[chrisaldrich]
I do too...
#
[chrisaldrich]
Though I know that I've seen a few discounts on their things lately for the more price sensitive....
#
[chrisaldrich]
cambridgeport90, what are the most compelling parts of it that you think are worth that value? Automatic backups would be a useful one that I would consider.

Hello all - does anybody have experience with creative commons?
#
schmudde
I'd like to add a machine readable CC0 to some images on my website. https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
[tw2113_Slack_] joined the channel
#
schmudde
I have the at human readable (cc0) in the caption using Font Awesome: https://fontawesome.com/icons/creative-commons?style=brands
#
schmudde
But I'm not sure what to do to make sure search engines know they can pick it up too.
#
schmudde
I don't find creative commons wiki particularly helpful in this regard. https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Marking_your_work_with_a_CC_license#Author.2C_License.2C_Machine-readability
#
sknebel
details about what applications consume is indeed pretty limited
#
sknebel
Google announced some new stuff this year, but I don't know if anything else cares about it: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/image-license-metadata
#
sknebel
creative commons has a search site, but as far as I remember that just indexes a few image sites that allow to explicitly tag a license, e.g. Flickr. Which is also assume how many people search for images with clear licenses
#
sknebel
*how I assume
#
[Denver_Prophit]
Inside an imageobject you can add a license attribute

Thanks sknebel. Looks like those docs point to a schema.org solution: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/image-license-metadata
#
schmudde
For an explicit license.
#
[Denver_Prophit]
I'm sure this belongs in dev? Happy to share that code over there.
#
petermolnar
I've added licence that apparently Google parses; will it make any difference though, I can't tell. Test here: https://search.google.com/test/rich-results?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpetermolnar.net%2Fphoto%2Fwales-forest-spirit%2Findex.html&user_agent=1
#
[Denver_Prophit]
The attribute may not be parsed into a rich snippet footer. But, the data is there for other consumers of structured data.
#
schmudde
Ah thanks petermolnar. That looks like what I wanted. Since no one knows what goes on behind the scenes at megacorp, we just do what we can, I guess.
#
schmudde
What's the indieweb dev channel? It's not coming up easily in Weechat. I suppose I should join there.
#
schmudde

got my toes in the p2p social web stuff and came across this

I figure that this can help influence what a system for vouch could look like (by planning for what one would want to vouch for, versus against)

yo all that license chatter, unless you're talking about a UI for *picking* a license among a human readable list (not URLs), then please move it to #indieweb-dev petermolnar. thank you
#
[tantek]
like if you have to cite a developers.google .com URL, that should be a strong hint that you're having a #indieweb-dev conversation
wolftune and PetriBot joined the channel
#
petermolnar
we already did, [tantek], along time ago
#
petermolnar
but I don't see why a UI is the only thing in relation to license that can stay here
#
petermolnar
or am I misunderstanding something?
#
[tantek]
got other examples that are user-friendly / user-understandable ?
#
petermolnar
I have a license text that has wrappers around it for the non-humans; it is visible right under the image
#
petermolnar
so, sort of
#
[tantek]
human readable license labeling like "CC0" or "MIT" or "CC By" or expansions of those makes sense too
#
[tantek]
such text microcopy is typically considered part of a UI
