I have a checkin problem with airports
#
GWG
Do you check-in to the flight, the gate, terminal or airport
#
aaronpk
i don't check in to moving targets like planes and buses, because i post those as trips instead
#
aaronpk
but i do check in to airports, terminals and gates
#
GWG
aaronpk: Doesn't that get confusing?
#
aaronpk
not really
#
GWG
I'm wondering if I should link them somehow
#
aaronpk
that would be neat
#
GWG
I don't have trips quite done yet
#
GWG
I have the option to give a venue a parent I suppose
#
aaronpk
i am very pleased that when i am on a flight, any post i make on my site shows up as tagged with the flight post
#
GWG
aaronpk: How do you pull that off?
#
GWG
The logic I mean
#
aaronpk
my site knows my flight schedule, so "if a post is created and there is currently an active flight, use the flight post as the location"
#
GWG
Figured
#
GWG
I did a lot over the last few months with location... I feel like other than tweaks I should work on something else for a while.
#
GWG
But maybe I should store data
#
GWG
How do you store data in preparation for an idea you might never get to?
#
aaronpk
usually storing the raw data is the most effective, even if it is the least efficient

aaronpk: Have to decide how to store flight data... right now I just store the email confirmation

GWG re: "check-in to the flight, the gate, terminal or airport" <-- yes
#
GWG
[tantek]: When I imported all old venues, it created some messiness I need to clean up manually

Because I imported from Swarm, ei109 has geo coordinates in Ireland

Whereas for everything else I feel I need to go through and add a blurb..https://david.shanske.com/venue/holiday-inn-berlin-city-east-side/

Hello everyone, we are a small team of three, been working on this native macOS app for building and hosting decentralized websites: https://planetable.xyz
#
Xin
For example, this weblog is built with the app and hosted on this Mac I am currently typing on: https://planetable.eth.limo/
#
Xin
From a tech stack perspective, it's IPFS + ENS, it does not require a cloud or a remote server.

You are bridging it out to the https web, presumably that uses a server or is that a DNS bridge?
Xin joined the channel
#
Xin
https://eth.limo is a project for bringing content on IPFS to https web.
#
Xin
If a browser/client has native support for IPFS+ENS, then it's possible to just enter this to the browser address bar:
#
Loqi
hey Xin: we try to keep jargon (IPFS) out of this channel to make it more inviting to newcomers, can you move this to #indieweb-dev?
#
Xin
ipns://planetable.eth
#
Xin
Loqi, sorry!

Loqi is our bot who reacts to certain things, so don't worry, Loqi is not offended :)
#
petermolnar
who is Loqi?
#
Loqi
Loqi is a friendly and useful bot/digital therapist present in the IndieWeb discussion channels https://indieweb.org/User:Loqi.me
#
petermolnar
anyway, the idea of building websites on top of IPFS is not too new, may I ask if you also support indieweb features with it, such as webmentions? If so, how? Because if one updates the document in ipfs, the hash address changes, so keeping a conversation up would be interesting.
Xin joined the channel
#
Xin
Yes, IPFS CID is mutable, it is just a hash. So we publish websites to IPNS, which is not mutable. Then it can be linked to ENS.
#
Loqi
hey petermolnar, Xin, can you move the tech talk (IPFS) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
Xin
Overall, every single piece in this stack, is not controlled by a corporate. It's 100% P2P.
#
Xin
Ok Loqi, I will move to #dev for sure.

<c​apjamesg#4492> A quick reminder that HWC London / Europe is coming up this evening: https://events.indieweb.org/2022/12/homebrew-website-club-europe-london-QA2Ko5KyaaY9
#
[jacky]
might appear for this

we (eg [tantek]) have discussed the pattern of syndicating full content of notes to Twitter/Mastodon, but only title and link for articles, eg https://fed.brid.gy/docs#which-parts
#
[snarfed]2
I hadn't quite realized that Mastodon itself independently came to the same conclusion: when BF sends an AS2 Note to Mastodon, it shows the full contents, but when it sends an AS2 Article, Mastodon only shows the name

[snarfed]2
(well, name and link)
#
[tantek]
that's great [snarfed], do we have this guidance captured in /POSSE already?
#
[snarfed]2
good q!
#
[aciccarello]
I'm hoping to attend the pacific event tonight

What is year in review?
#
Loqi
Year in Review is a feature on some silos (like Facebook) as well as being a special kind of article on some IndieWeb sites that summarizes important aspects of the past year https://indieweb.org/year_in_review
#
Loqi
ok, I added "https://fandom.tumblr.com/post/702448565057961984/its-that-time-again-its-tumblrs-2022-year-in [[Tumblr]]'s year in review for 2022 via their [https://fandom.tumblr.com/ Fandom site]." to the "See Also" section of /year_in_review https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=85039&oldid=84792
#
[chrisaldrich]
Note to self: tag big events in 2023 with a custom tag like YIR23 or something similar to make the editorial work of creating a Year in Review easier.

A user interface argument against Tweetstorms? https://twitter.com/jack/status/1602800293850320896

[chrisaldrich]
Of potential interest to some here on the funding front, Jack says, "To accelerate open internet and protocol work, I’m going to open a new category of #startsmall grants: “open internet development.”"
#
[snarfed]2
yeah those did look possibly relevant for people here

<c​apjamesg#4492> Eek. Revue is shutting down.
#
aaronpk
i was gonna say, that seems like a questionable place to have posted that just now
#
[aciccarello]
I was wondering about that
#
[snarfed]2
evidently they announced the shutdown after Jack posted
#
[aciccarello]
You'd think Jack would be aware of that
#
gRegor
what is Revue?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Revue" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Revue is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
gRegor
I'm not familiar with it, but added to https://indieweb.org/site-deaths#Revue with dates and download links
#
gRegor
That's a fast time from announcement to site-death, just over a month 😬
#
[aciccarello]
There are some news articles from today so I think it's safe to call today the announcement today
#

Oh, Klout shut down in 2018? Guess that explains why I hadn't heard anything about them lately.
