If I decide that the audio I'm linking to in a post is actually an alternate version of a post, how would I mark that up?
#
[tantek]
publish an example first, and worry about how to mark it up *after* we've gathered a bunch of real world content publishing examples
#
[tantek]
so in short, no special markup to begin with
#
aaronpk
no point in marking it up if nothing is going to read it
#
GWG
I thought I'd try a proof of concept on an audio alternate as an idea, after the [schmarty] conversation of earlier.
#
GWG
I need the perfect note to record
#
GWG
You know...the most profound thought to kick off the series
#
[tantek]
GWG, premature markup will likely lead your astray
#
[tantek]
lead you* astray
#
GWG
I know, just wondering if there was something already

[snarfed], Tried to federate a multi-photo and the logs seem OK but I'm not seeing the post in Mastodon. https://fed.brid.gy/log?start_time=1673660173&key=https://gregorlove.com/2023/01/there-was-some-strong/%20https://xoxo.zone/inbox&module=

[tantek]
ooh does Masto support multiphotos?
#
gRegor
that's becoming a key question :) I thought it did
#
gRegor
Was thinking maybe the photo posts are async and take mastodon a bit longer, but doesn't seem likely
#
gRegor
(since it's ~30 minutes after federating)
#
[tantek]
why copy Twitter's posting limitations? why not 10 like Insta?
#
[tantek]
or perhaps Pixelfed does that 😛

Looks like loqi and slack only show the first one though

gRegor true! I don't see it on https://indieweb.social/@gregorlove.com@gregorlove.com (logged in) either, but that log shows that it federated there ok 🤷‍♂️

BF does federate multi-photos ok, so I don't think that alone is the problem
#
gRegor
hm, ok! I checked the filesize and they should all be within it
#
gRegor
Hm, need to update some mf2 if that's showing as the preview
#
gRegor
Xray is probably looking for the first h-entry, no the h-feed.p-name

[preview] [Loqi] capjamesg: [tantek] left you a message 19 hours, 57 minutes ago: do you have the link for when this was discussed in chat? https://github.com/tantek/cassis/issues/36 Also I have made some improvements (not committed) like recognizing Masto-post-like ...
#
capjamesg
I can't remember when we discussed this, but I remember doing so.

Good Morning! After way to much time this morning, I finally got a u-in-reply-to to work in WordPress via Bridgy. I hope to be able to attend the webinar tomorrow and will read the references in [tantek] ‘s anniversary post.
#
capjamesg
Congratulations [TMichelleMoore]!
#
capjamesg
And good morning!

[TMichelleMoore]

[tantek] btw I did get edit notifications on mastodon for your webmentions post, so some of it is working with bridgy

What is yaml?
#
Loqi
YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) is a data serialization standard https://indieweb.org/YAML
#
capjamesg
"The json spec is not versioned. There were two changes to it in 2005 (the removal of comments, and the addition of scientific notation for numbers)," Comments aren't allowed in JSON?
#
[KevinMarks]
No, though most parsers will ignore them rather than throwing an error. The reason was that people were using them as parsing directives and making things incompatible. YAML has the opposite philosophy, which is like pickle but for crashing multiple runtimes.
#
[KevinMarks]
I'm not sure if there's a list, but YAML has broken lots of systems by code injection, including Ruby gems
#
[KevinMarks]
JSON vs YAML is the rule of least power

<j​acky#7226> There's JSONC and JSON5 IIRC that do support comments (I opt for those parsers tbh)

JSON5?! That spec is not yet part of my growing JSON spec collection :o https://indieweb.org/JSON
#
Zegnat
jsonc is still my favourite. You never know if it is jsonc, jsonc, JSONC, or json-c people talk about without follow up questions (e.g. I am going to assume jacky meant Microsofts JSON with Comments as seen in VSCode and not any of the others.)

[snarfed] does the following look right to follow someone. I am getting 502 errors. Do I need to check the publish t bridgrfed option?

[snarfed] This message in the brid.gy logs makes me laugh: "skipping feed since it's not HTML or otherwise bad"
#
capjamesg
[snarfed] How does brid.gy GitHub work?
#
capjamesg
Do I need to add a syndication link to brid.gy for a post to get picked up?
