I couldn't attend today's event but I am looking forward to attend one of the weekly meetings if time allows it
#
GWG
There was an event today?
#
GWG
I missed it too then
#
corlaez
I thought so... let me get the link.
#
corlaez
I might make it
#
GWG
I'll likely be around.
#
GWG

I have been catching up with things like longevity and I am yet to introduce webmentions to my site

There is always another project, I find
#
corlaez
meaning the indie web is growing? not sure if I follow
#
GWG
corlaez: I was more talking about projects for my website that I want to add.
#
corlaez
ah the tinkering!
#
corlaez
what is your current project?
#
GWG
Fixing something related to the weather
#
GWG
I like to show weather on my site.
#
GWG
Do you know how they say eskimos have many words for snow?
#
corlaez
oh yeah I heard a little about that
#
corlaez
LOCAL CONDITIONS I saw it
#
corlaez
different cultures may name more or less colors
#
GWG
So, my problem is I identified the current weather by the name of the icon I used to display it, which means I can't change the icons. So, I had to come up with a list of weather types, map the current weather to that, and then I can.
#
GWG
So, nothing anyone but I will be able to appreciate.
#
GWG
So, it is me fixing a very geeky feature that only amuses me, as opposed to something more noticeable.
#
corlaez
Yeah, it's your site. Why not?
#
corlaez
I am listening your podcast =)
#
corlaez
Discovery seems to be something I haven't read as much about.
#
corlaez
Allowing the homepage to list all the spaces/features available in other routes (blog, notes, podcast, etc)
#
corlaez
and not sure if microsub supports it (as I do not know much about it) but if somehow it would allow to decide what to I want to be subscribed about
#
GWG
We haven't recorded an episode in too long.
#
GWG
It does, somewhat, but it is still young in terms of implementations
#
corlaez
do you know what's the deal with chickens? is that because of how similar it sounds to checkins?
#
[snarfed]
corlaez correct
#
GWG
corlaez: It was something of a joke back in the day
#
[tantek]4
wait what snarfed? I didn't think it was a checkins homophone joke, that's news to me
#
[tantek]4
I thought it was based on a joke presentation that says nothing but chicken
#
[tantek]4
what is chicken
#
Loqi
chicken is a type of post supported by idno https://indieweb.org/chicken
Nuve joined the channel
#
corlaez

#
corlaez
but what is it. Meaning how is chicken different to any other type of post. I am unfamiliar with idno
#
corlaez
maybe is both things? a ty
#
[tantek]4
corlaez I believe this is the origin of joke https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL_-1d9OSdk

corlaez

question: what happened to the Tumblr search for coders to make them IndieWeb compliant last May? Do we know if that is still moving forward?
