#wagleany piwigo users in the house. I'm find tools to import to piwigo but not export. is "export" the wrong keyword?
barpthewire, cweiske and jjuran joined the channel
#Zegnatwagle, I would expect export to be the right word for getting stuff out
#ZegnatIt is interesting how basically all search results I get for “piwigo” and “export” are about tools that help you take your photos from other software *into* piwigo
#kaushalmodiTo brid.gy the retweet looks the exact same as the first mention (same author, etc.)
#kaushalmodiUsed the wrong terms there.. so the activity types for the original tweet and my retweet both show up as "link".
#kaushalmodiThe activity type of the retweet should be "repost", right?
#sknebelthat seems like a bug, yes. it probably shouldn't report the retweet, since you are the author of it
[snarfed] joined the channel
#[snarfed][kaushal_modi] you didn't syndicate the original, so the retweet isn't a repost of a post of yours@@a
#[snarfed]or, it shouldn't backfeed retweets of mentions, at least
#kaushalmodiyeah, the second behavior would be expected especially if the mention is of the retweeter
#kaushalmodisnarfed: The original was just an arbitrary mention of me, so I don't know how to syndicate that.
#[snarfed]@sknebel most people actually do want their own tweets/qcomments backfed, in general
#[snarfed][kaushal_modi] you don't, it's not yours to syndicate :P
#kaushalmodiHmm, so is there any Twitter meta data that distinguishes between that original tweet with my mention and my retweet?
#[snarfed][kaushal_modi] yes, easy to distinguish qRTs
[unoabraham] joined the channel
#[snarfed]it's like if someone wrote a post on their site that linked to your site, and sent a webmention
#sknebel[snarfed]: but the two webmentions kaushalmodi got only differ in the twitter-URL, the bridgy markup doesn't show anything about it being a retweet
#sknebelor is the second one not for the RT, but some weird duplicate?
snarfed, wiobyrne, [unoabraham], EmreSokullu, [snarfed], singpolyma and renem joined the channel
#[snarfed]nah, it's for the RT. you may be able to make it render differently if you replace post in the URL with repost
#sknebelthat makes it 404. And I don't get what the value of the second WM is then, if the receiver can't tell that it's a retweet?
kaushalmodi joined the channel
#kaushalmodiI am confused.. It's bridgy that sets post vs repost in the URL, right.. I am just receiving WM's from webmention.io which sets the activity type as "link" for both: original and retweet (in this particular case)
#wagleZegnat: just want to be able to freely move from one tech to another, and seeing how much of that I can do

#ZegnatInteresting, wagle. I’d say a lot of people here are fans of pulling things out of databases and putting it in plain text files for long term storage of data.
#ZegnatBut yeah, I am not seeing a lot of export options for Piwigo. Maybe if you look for other open-source photo tools that they will have made “import from Piwigo” tools. Otherwise it looks pretty locked up
#wagleis currently curating four (4) photos to see what info he shou;d collect while scanning in a few hundred
#schmartyi notice that your text pronunciation guide is not marked as an mf2 property
#ZegnatNote that I am in the annoying position of not being able to pronounce my own name very well, else I would have recorded a clip of my entire name.
#ZegnatYeah, I am not sure if it makes sense to do that schmarty, because of the phonetic symbols, it doesn’t seem very useful?
#Zegnat/MAR-tajn/ ? Something like that? Not sure if that will actually help people pronounce my name
#schmartyi definitely cannot read IPA and i think that is super interesting.
#schmartybecause in the sense that tons of human effort to get a universal textual representation of mouth sounds, it feels like the "right way to do it"
#ZegnatBetter to link to sound. And wikipedia/wiktionary actually has a lot of pronounciations of names stored.
#aaronpkI think an audio file is the best option, since it removes the need to find common written symbols to represent different sounds from different languages
#schmartybut in the sense that the indieweb is about making things usable by humans, i can't get much out of IPA representations
#ZegnatI think people have told me to add a symbol to the page so people realise they can click it for the audio representation
#schmartyi prefer audio files, for sure, because i can practice to match them.
#jmacYeah, linking to a sound clip sounds better the more I think of it. It's the internet, 2018, all that.
#aaronpkCross language "baby talk" spelling doesn't work very well either cause there are many sounds in other languages that don't exist in English and can't be spelled with English words
#schmartywikipedia/wiktionary are good places to check. my previous strategies have involved trying to find videos where a person is mentioned or says their name, or appearances on podcasts.
#ZegnatThe only problem with that is people who cannot pronounce their own names in their own language very well, haha
#jmacremembers that early (and current?) Linux distros often included a clip of Linux pronouncing his name, and the operating system's
#aaronpkZegnat: in that case I would say the more important thing is that people are pronouncing your name the way you want them to whether or not it's "technically correct"
#schmartymy current strategy is usually to check their site's about info to figure out where they live (or if they say where they are "from"), or the primary non-english language that they post in on their site
#schmartythen i'll put their name into google translate and set it to the "nearest" language that google translate will speak aloud.
#Zegnataaronpk, problem comes from not being able to say that. I wonder for instance how Jonathan Ross pronounces his own surname. And if that becomes “Woss”, does he actually want people to call him that?
#singpolymajmac: "nerds" and "people from languages who use IPA as their alphabet"
#ZegnatI too sometimes struggle with Rs, and hearing people try to parrot the way I pronounce my own given name, with them trying to mimic my R, just sounds wrong.
#schmartyjmac: that clip wasn't just included! it was the test sound for alsa configuration, if i remember correctly. :}
#jmacsingpolyma: I duly slow my Anglocentric roll.
#jmacschmarty: Excellent. You can tell that I got my friends to set up sound in Linux because I was hopeless at it.
#[jgmac1106]This will happen often with different languages, especially if moving from a phonetic based reading language to one that isn't but even then there are simply some phonemes (a human invention) that are used in Hindi and English vice versa that our mouths are not trained to make
#skippy"My name in Linus Torvalds, and I pronounce Linux Linux."
#jmacAnd working all these together as a little IPA teaching-nudge, hmm? e.g. <p class="p-phonetic-name"><a href="http://example.com/me-pronouncing-my-name.mp3" class="p-ipa u-sound">[My name in IPA characters]</a></p> (Just spitballing here)
#Loqi[Zegnat] schmarty, jmac, [jgmac1106]: I use u-sound linked to an audio file of my first name.
#Zegnatp-ipa might be a good idea. Would set it aside from other pronunciation guides, and as a mf2 consumer you know you only have to look in there if you are able to use IPA in the first place
#jmacWould it be kosher to make an ad-hoc rule of "And if it contains a u-sound URL, understand that as a spoken sound clip of the IPA text content" ?
#schmartyjmac: i think u-sound, being derived from hCard's "sound" and vCard's "sound" before that, would be understood to be a spoken sound clip of the person or organization or place's name
#jmacI mean, maybe there is already an MF2 proposed standard for "Here is a link to an audio version of this text" that's re-usable here, I don't know
#ZegnatYou could document that. But the raw microformats aren’t going to show a relationship between properties. All properties are descriptors of the upper object. So all mf2 shows is that `sound` and `ipa` are descriptors of `h-card`.
#ZegnatYou’d need something like ... h-text? With a p-written and u-spoken? Which may be interesting, or overly convoluted.
#schmartyjmac: oh, good question. i don't believe there is, but i'd be interested in using it to link podcast episodes to their transcriptions, or link the this week in the indieweb newsletters with their audio editions.
#jmacZegnat: But if a u-sound in an h-card is already understood to mean "This is the 'name' of this h-card read out loud", then that's all we need; the fact that you can represent that as a hyperlink from IPA text is a happy accident.
#schmartyzegnat: did you mean to write "not (yet) part of the official h-review spec" on the mf2 wiki regarding u-sound? seems like that should be h-card, but i get easily confused about the mf2 wiki content. ;}
#ZegnatYes, on an h-card, I would say it always means the spoken name
#[kevinmarks]I'd say avoid nesting properties - we flattened h-card to make it easier. If you want pronunciations of other things (organisatiosn etc) then embed an h-card for them wiht it's own u-sound
#[kevinmarks]yes, for an h-entry I would assume audio version. You could use rel="alternate" for it too
#[kevinmarks]If we left out u-sound it was because we didn't see examples, so adding examples is the right way to go
#Zegnathmm, is rel="alternate" scoped like rel="author"?
#schmartyaaronpk: any interest in adding an h-card to okta.com with a u-sound property linking to an audio file of the pronunciation? ;}
snarfed joined the channel
#ZegnatLooks like rel="alternate" is page scoped. So can only use that for the audio version links on permalink pages and not within feeds. Am I right in that reading of the HTML spec, [kevinmarks]?
#[kevinmarks]rel-enclosure is also appropriate for podcasts
#ZegnatThe question is what people will understand the sound property to be ... if they expect to find the full post in audio format, 10 seconds may be a let down. More a [.u-summary .u-sound] then, maybe?
#Zegnatwagle, probably because you are free to take all your data. As all the data is indeed stored by you on hosting you pay for. They just aren’t telling you exactly you can access that data ;)
#jmacYour IPA looks like your name, mine looks like horrible shoggoth-speak. I'm trusting that my language-nerd friends in another chatroom aren't playing a joke on me.
#ZegnatLooks about right, from what I remember of IPA
#jmacEvery time someone actually pronounces /ˈdʒeɪsən ˈmækɪnˌtɒʃ/ another sun winks out and cthulhu stirs in his slumber. sorry everyone

#sknebelsnarfed: ah, I overlooked that both IDs are needed
#Zegnatjmac, hmm, can I convince you to also include pronouns in the h-card. Now that pronunciation of your name has been solved? 😇
#jmacZegnat: A valid question, and for the time being I would rather stay respectfully mum on this topic! (Which is an entirely separate crate of potatoes I intend to write up later.)

I wish there was a more general effort to making pipelines agnostic of what they were running against.
#snarfedkaushalmodi: no, i haven't changed any code. bridgy just renders a retweet to html a bit differently depending on whether you explicitly tell it it's a retweet or not

#bdeshamQuestion about the URL returned when you upload a file to a Micropub media endpoint. Is the intention that this be a *resolvable* URL?
#bdeshamOr could I return something like urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6 and only "promote" the file to a "real" URL once a post was created that actually referenced the file?
#ZegnatGood question. From spec as written, any valid URL pointing “to the file” should be a valid response. Though I think the intent was for it to be resolvable.
#bdeshamYeah, I figured that was the case. It seems preferable to me, though, to make the uploaded file publicly-accessible only when the relevant post is published, instead of making it accessible immediately and then expiring it at some point in the future
#aaronpkadvantage of it being accessible immediately: see the quill UI for adding a photo to a post. it shows the post as a preview before the note is created
#ZegnatI guess some editors may have issue with it if they try to display an uploaded image inline? Does the Quill article editor not do something like that?
#bdeshamaaronpk: I haven't uploaded a photo with Quill yet (although I have used it for several text posts--thank you very much for making it!). Does Quill upload the file and then download it again to create the preview?
#aaronpkit uploads the file then renders an <img> tag with that URL
#Zegnat(I didn’t see aaronpk’s chat, my IRC client got out of sync :( Going to be quiet.)
#singpolymathe media endpoint is still optional, right? Because it wouldn't work for my use case at all :P
#aaronpki treat my media endpoint as a temporary location, and my site moves the file to the post's folder after it's created
#singpolymaI guess I could do that, but a multipart request sounds easier to handle
jalcine joined the channel
#bdeshamI was thinking that since the URL returned from the media endpoint is (potentially) temporary anyway, returning a non-resolvable URI wouldn't be too bad. But it sounds like that would break some clients

#loqi.meedited /urn (+41) "bear added "Uniform Resource Name" to "See Also"" (view diff)
#Loqiurn is a Uniform Resource Name that comes from the original design of Internet resources but is often now a source of dead links https://indieweb.org/urn
#bearwith a follow up paragraph about how IndieWeb should use URLs
#tantekpretty sure it's been obsoleted in the URL spec also
#LoqiAn urn is used to store the ashes of cremated people, however URN is an abbreviation for Uniform Resource Name, specified as a kind of URI, yet later abandoned by the URL Standard, and historically often a source of dead links, ironically aligned with the original common noun.</span> https://indieweb.org/urn
#singpolymaHow can a urn be a "dead link"? Most of them are stuff like urn:isbn:... ISBNs don't expire or anything, and in terms of resolution are never "live links" to begin with
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#bearURN is not abandoned - it's use is listed as not being suggested for use in favour of URI
#tanteksingpolyma: you're going to have a hard time arguing that on merits / evidence
#tantek"in practice" that is - which is frankly a core common cultural assumption even here in #indieweb
#tantekwe're not so much into theoretical proclamations
#singpolymaI mean, we could deband what "standards body" mean all day I suppose :P I'm probably just too used to open stardards, but arguably ISO and everyone are just as closed as whatwg so maybe none of it means anything :P
#tantekbear, does that "current RFC" have test suites with implementation reports?
#tantekso yeah, we are talking about web standards
#tantekbear, and read the post, I call out specifically the historical problems of IETF / iCalendar testing etc.
#tantekI am citing history. no rewriting going on here.
#singpolymaThis list of 10 things is good, but except for indieweb/microformats does anyone operate like this? IETF is close, except for 8,9,10. Other groups tend to fail much earlier (due to not being open in at lest of of develop/iterate/discuss)
#tanteksingpolyma: right, 9 & 10 are what has evolved to be *expected* of current standards development
#tantekthere's efforts to upgrade IETF culture to do so, beyond "running code"
#bearmy original point, before the rabbit holes and such, was that defining URN purely from a web standard view isn't going to give the proper depth of a definition - but i'm going to stop because i'm tired of being told to not worry about anything that isn't a pure web experience
#tantekright, much of that (explicit open test suites, impl reports) was pioneered at W3C
#singpolymaaaronpk: W3C... I don't event want to touch that discussion anymore. It's 2018
#aaronpkI don't even know what that means but okay
#tantekbear, part of the point of defining something on the indieweb wiki *is* to not only give a "web experience" but an *indieweb* experience at that
#tantekWikipedia is already there to "give the proper depth of a definition"
#bearthen we will be removing anything that is implementation details below the line of web/html
#aaronpkRight indieweb wiki is where you go to understand what something is relative to your personal website
#loqi.mecreated /uri (+71) "prompted by gRegorLove and dfn added by [kevinmarks]" (view diff)
#tantekbear we have removed plenty of stuff that had nothing in particular to do with indieweb
#aaronpkWikipedia can take the scope of defining everything outside of any context
#tantekit's not about "below the line of web/html"
#tantekit's about about what do you actually use setup, maintain, develop an indieweb site
#singpolymaeven wikipedia has "notability" requirements (though, no idea why)
#tanteksingpolyma: if you want to drop "It's 2018" type statements, then yes, it's 2018 and no standards group/body that calls itself that has any excuse for not doing open (*free*) test suite and open implementation reports - it was a common best practice 7 years ago as I blogged it
