we should just point any wiki lookup for "database" to that charity.wtf post
#
bear
I am loving the term "accidental DBA"
#
Loqi
totally
#
tantek
that term so succinctly captures my fears about the thing I wish to avoid
#
bear
agree completely
#
bear
heck, i'm a Ops and DBA and I don't run my own databases

I have a slightly mad idea... I could use my CardDAV services as source of truth for people tagging, as in: get all contacts with website field, match relevant name fields in the text of a post, auto-link it, webmention it
#
petermolnar
would there be any downside to this?
#
petermolnar
apart from needing to interact with CardDAV and/or vcard...brrr...
#
GWG
Good morning
#
Loqi
guten morgen
#
@JavaScriptJJ
@thiagoviski DId you get my DM? the webmention thing? Past that now and turning node-static into node-dynamic server.

petermolnar: i have wondered about something similar for a /nicknames-cache when writing
#
aaronpk
Seems reasonable if you're already maintaining a carddav server

@TechLifeWeb
@ChrisAldrich hey Chris, do you use Custom Post Types? I'm giving one a try and it isn't sending webmentions. Can't figure out why.

GWG ^ wordpress question
tantek and KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
GWG
KartikPrabhu, I answered that

#
pfefferle
good morning
#
GWG
Hi, pfefferle
#
pfefferle
that was a fast answer ;)
#
GWG
Anything new there?
#
GWG
pfefferle, I am eating a late lunch.
#
GWG
You usually catch me asleep or at work
#
pfefferle
Enjoy your meal
#
pfefferle
yes, I am preparing for bed
#
GWG
pfefferle, company is always welcome
#
GWG
While I eat lunch
#
GWG
If anything is on your mind.
#
pfefferle
what does "company is always welcome" mean?
#
GWG
pfefferle, I wanted you to know that my eating wouldn't interfere if you had something to say
#
GWG
pfefferle, lots of Indieweb WordPress interest lately
#
GWG
Very inspiring
#
pfefferle
yes, thanks for pointing me to the wp tavern post
#
GWG
Good to be appreciated

#
pfefferle
yes :) but sad that we can't do it for a living ;)
#
GWG
pfefferle, if I did, it wouldn't be as fun probably
#
GWG
I like people telling me they use my work
#
pfefferle
pfefferle I did something very similar for quite a long time and it was great fun
#
GWG
pfefferle, but you work professionally as a programmer. right?
#
GWG
I never have
#
GWG
Not sure if I would like it as a profession.
#
GWG
I do like it as a hobby
#
pfefferle
but currently I am more like a ... Automattic would call it happiness engineer
#
GWG
pfefferle, support is fine
#
pfefferle
no, not for external customers, but for the team
#
pfefferle
I help the team to be happy and productive :)
#
GWG
Internal support is what I did for six years.
#
pfefferle
hmmm ok, then it is not what Automattic would call a happiness engineer
#
pfefferle
I took the name literal
#
GWG
It is more a helping people
#
GWG
I am still hoping that someone publishes my Make WordPress Core blog entry
#
GWG
On why Webmentions.
#
pfefferle
have you submitted a post?
#
GWG
Yes, in August
#
pfefferle
that is long time ago
#
pfefferle
are you still confident
#
GWG
I remind Jorbin once a month
#
GWG
pfefferle, confident that someone will approve it...no.
#
pfefferle
open source is a hard business ;)
#
GWG
But I think if we continue to improve Webmentions the plugin it could become Webmentions the patch
#
pfefferle
would be awesome
#
Loqi
*sniff*
#
pfefferle
and thats why we shouldn't merge the wm plugin with sl
#
pfefferle
the sl plugin is still a bit hacky and the mf2 lib is too "modern" for WP atm ;)
#
GWG
pfefferle, there may be a middle ground
#
GWG
I would like to figure out how to do replies. I think the feature that distinguishes Webmentions from Pingbacks is the ability to comment/reply.
#
GWG
Not sure if there is a way to cover that in the basic presentation
