GWG Thinking about date based navigation again
#
[tantek] oooh I like that topic. AKA Navigating thru the 4TH DIMENSION!
#
GWG Well, I was just looking at your website
#
[tantek] which is unfortunately lacking the date-based nav that I want
#
GWG You also have directory view at /2021
#
GWG So no year based
#
GWG May I ask what you want?
#
[tantek] relatively current thoughts on that here and subsequent sections: https://indieweb.org/Falcon#archive_navigation
#
GWG You have next previous links on day archives, which I don't yet
#
GWG Same with previous month
#
GWG My issue is I don't post every day, so how to figure out the previous link, but it is doable

#
[tantek] Yes I got stuck there too, and chose the simple route of navigating to empty day pages instead

[tantek] Dropping this in here only because a lot of us use PHP, and some Ruby too. See image: https://twitter.com/wabzqem/status/1378894021397909506 💀

#
[KevinMarks] good news, API compatibility is legal in the US https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/5/22367851/google-oracle-supreme-court-ruling-java-android-api
#
Zegnat That feels like the wrong take-away, [KevinMarks]... SC has said that APIs may very well be copyrightable, but in this specific case, Google met the Fair Use factors and therefor could not be found to be infringing. (Thus no need to determine whether APIs are copyrightable or not, and all future similar cases will have to walk the same legal line to be tested for fair use.)
#
[KevinMarks] sure, but it does set a citable precedent
#
[KevinMarks] meanwhile Thomas is suggesting common carriage rules for silos https://www.protocol.com/bulletins/thomas-scotus-twitter-trump-ban

#
[KevinMarks] Good thread on the precedent here https://twitter.com/charles_duan/status/1379074836073488391?s=20
#
@charles_duan Wow--SCOTUS doesn't just rule in favor of Google in @googlevoracle, but says that API reimplementation is fair use *as a matter of law*, meaning that the decision applies to all APIs https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EyN1P7WWEAMHHEx.png (twitter.com/_/status/1379074836073488391)

[tantek] Huh, this has a few tricks that I hadn't seen before. the file: net mount thing is a bit messed up. https://www.paulosyibelo.com/2021/04/this-man-thought-opening-txt-file-is.html

[tantek] snarfed, this is article is very much for you, lots of overlap with Granary and Bridgy in practical terms IMO: https://www.eff.org/wp/interoperability-and-privacy
#
[tantek] in particular see the section on "Example 2: Federated social networking" which mentions Facebook and social APIs in particular!
