[jacky] In the past, I really only updated the colophon when I made major changes. I haven't included those details on the current iteration of my site.
#
[scojjac]
(re your #indieweb-chat question)
#
jacky
hmm okay
#
[scojjac]
or, #indieweb lol
#
jacky
lol yeah
#
[scojjac]
What are you thinking of doing?

I'm revisiting how my site's built tbh - mainly tearing out the micropub aspect of it so it's a bit of a 'bridge' to how things are stored so the actual website can just focus on rendering stuff
#
jacky
for example, I keep _everything_ in object storage using https://min.io and it works great for me tbh
#
[tantek]
aaronpk, might want to update the image in the top right of https://indieauth.com/setup listing various services (some of which are offline πŸ˜‰ )
#
jacky
especially because I can keep things automatically versioned (haven't fully leveraged that yet tho)
#
[tantek]
what is a colophon
#
Loqi
A colophon is a page or section, like a footer, of a site that describes how the site is made, with what tools, supporting what technologies https://indieweb.org/colophon
#
aaronpk
oh gosh
#
[tantek]
πŸ˜‚
#
aaronpk
part of me (okay most of me) is stubbornly refusing to make minor fixes to indieauth.com because the plan is to replace it entirely
#
[tantek]
fair. is it on github?
#
[tantek]
happy to do minor fixes like remove the image
#
Loqi
[aaronpk] IndieAuth.com: This service is being discontinued in favor of indielogin.com

on another topic, I'm experimenting with manual responses/comments markup, e.g. https://tantek.com/2021/051/b1/life-happens#lh-responses
#
[tantek]
still not sure what I want exactly so I'm experimenting manually with posts like that occasionally

[snarfed]
ooh πŸ‘€
#
[snarfed]
also πŸ‘ manual until it hurts
#
aaronpk
wow i didn't realize there are three JSON RFCs at IETF
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks]
it's the IETF way - you have to read the 'obsoletes' stuff carefully
#
jacky
the original blockchain - IETF RFCs lol

#
jacky
might have finally figured out how to build a proper 'bridge' for IndieWeb sites into IPFS
#
jacky
I've been pouring over the specs because I remember when I was speaking to someone at a HWC in SF
#
jacky
and they mentioned having their site on their phone and other people being able to access it over the LAN
#
jacky
I think [tantek] and https://werd.io (I didn't want to butcher his last name >_<) was there too
#
jacky
the biggest issue was being able to prevent some peers from being able to replicate or see info
#
jacky
oof not IPFS, Hypercore lol
#
Loqi
[substack] hypercore-authenticate-session-extension: hypercore extension to verify the identity of peers by signing the noise key with another key
#
jacky
what is Hypercore
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Hypercore" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Hypercore is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
jacky
Hypercore is /Dat
#
jacky
Dat << A method for implementing a sort of ACL for content https://github.com/substack/hypercore-authenticate-session-extension
#
Loqi
ok, I added "A method for implementing a sort of ACL for content https://github.com/substack/hypercore-authenticate-session-extension" to the "See Also" section of /Dat https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=74900&oldid=74899

Noticed an issue with the database on https://webmention.herokuapp.com/, I'm looking into it

#
@voxpelli
↩️ Fixed by doing: heroku config:set PGSSLMODE=require This was a change from Heroku that I hadn't realized I needed to fix, so http://webmention.herokuapp.com was without a database for roughly 12 hours

@midvintr
A cool article by @CodeFoodPixels about adding webmentions to a site in general, and one built with @eleven_ty in particular. I'll be doing the same next week! https://lukeb.co.uk/blog/2021/03/15/no-comment-adding-webmentions-to-my-site/

doosboox
So I added h-card to my website last night, mostly because it was fun πŸ˜„ Can someone give me an example of when it’s actually used?
#
[schmarty]
doosboox: it's used as profile information on this IndieWeb webring! <https://πŸ•Έ.ws/>
#
doosboox
[schmarty]: that URL is awesome!
#
doosboox
But it says it’s been deleted :(
#
[schmarty]
haha wait. what says what's been deleted?

doosboox
Ah! πŸ•ΈπŸ’

[chrisaldrich]
doosboox, h-cards are probably most often used in displaying webmentions from one site to another. If you replied to one of my posts, my site (and many others) would parse your page, find your card and be able to display the information you provided (name, URL, avatar typically) along with your reply.
