I'm trying to generate a map of an hour of time, but this hour of time has 332 data points in it. Trying to figure out which ones to drop as that is giving the map generator a conniption.
#

aaronpk: I'm using Compass as a data source. I assume you are generating your map images some way. Can I seek your advice?

Got a link to that?
#
GWG
I'll try to find one.
#
aaronpk
I have an implementation somewhere but I can't find it
#
aaronpk
I'm sure there are packages available now
#
GWG
I'll start searching.

Okay, that worked. Though I need to tweak it.

Calculating the tolerance level on this algorithm is tricky. Needs more work and refinement.
#
GWG
But it's 2AM, so maybe another time.

Lahacker exactly - I want my editor to be able to create post types for everything my Micropub server supports
#

I also think barryf is working on this for Micropublish.net (likely as well as the existing editor) which is very exciting

↩️ Die Überlegung ist, bestimmte Prozess sich gegenseitig triggern zu lassen (ist noch nicht alles bis zum Ende ausgedacht). Beispiel ist der Empfang einer Webmention. Das würde den SSG meiner Website triggern. Aber auch einen zweiten Prozess, der Avatar herunterlädt & bearbeitet.

Hello, what's the indieweb way to list a load of books?
#
sebsel
I would say you do it by just listing the books :)
#
freethink
phew
#
sebsel
But do you mean, like, how to work out the HTML?
#
sebsel
what is books?
#
sebsel
hm, or also
#
freethink
yeah, I was wondering if there are some nice tags I should be using
#
sebsel
what is personal library?
#
Loqi
A personal library is an online collection of books that reflects either physical or digital items one owns, wants to acquire, has bookmarked to read, is currently reading, or read in the past https://indieweb.org/personal_library
#
freethink
thank you, this shold keep me entertained for a while :)
#
sebsel
lol I am on that page myself, I forgot.
#
sebsel
Yea, I just use a <ul> list, and then mark them up with the `h-cite` microformats thing.
#
sebsel
The question is: who is consuming this? I think no-one at this point.
#
sebsel
Then just a list would be enough I would say
#
freethink
yeah, no one. This is a list for myself. Then after I got 30 books in I thought, I should be uing bibtex or something. Then arrived here
#
sebsel
I don't think we have a complete solution just yet, but we have examples on that page!
#
sebsel
Feel free to add yourself too
#
freethink
Examples are good. Once I get something working, i'll put a link up
