# cophee Does anyone know how I might be able to fix it?
# cophee So I've got dark mode on my website wingpang.com (by pressing on bottom left corner or system prefs), but on Edge and maybe chrome, the background gradient (grid lines) only updates with a hard refresh
# cophee Everything else seems to change colours correctly though
# cophee Ed4: Congrats!!!

# [Joe_Crawford] cophee in Chrome on MacOS it seems to be working properly. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value/light-dark `light-dark()` is used to change background-color and background-image fine,

# carrvo[d] It is not terribly hard to have version numbers so specific. Most build systems (for compiled languages anyway) can track a build number that you can append as the fourth version number. It is a bit weird, that number will continue incrementing across major versions (not reset/rollover to 0) and I don't know why it is commonly chosen to be included as external information. Technically it means that it can function as a unique version number o

# edmael Question: I've implemented the webmentions using webmention.io and brid.gy. Now whenever someone on Mastodon likes a toot containing my url I get a nice "like" and a reply there. Am I missing something to be "compliant" with webmentions? For example I saw that people have also a form to send manually the webmention, is that useful? Do I need to add something else? Thanks!

# capjamesg[d] Is there an ICS -> Atom conversion service?
sebbu2 joined the channel
# capjamesg[d] I wondered if it was worth adding ICS as a supported format to my web reader.
# capjamesg[d] Then you could see events from calendars to which you are subscribed.
# capjamesg[d] I thought that it may be so difficult -- and sensitive -- that it wasn't worth the effort, but I wanted to confirm before writing off the idea.
# capjamesg[d] I have worked a bit with ICS in the past and remember it being... difficult and unintuitive.
# capjamesg[d] My site now defers YouTube embeds โ
# capjamesg[d] [edit] I'm using https://github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed
# capjamesg[d] [edit] See also: https://www.zachleat.com/web/youtube-embeds/
# capjamesg[d] The web component lets you show a poster and, on click, render the iframe.
# capjamesg[d] There is also a progressively enhanced version in the repo README.

# [tantek] 61.5 days until the 10 year anniversary of https://tantek.com/2015/069/t1/js-dr-javascript-required-dead โ see if this is true! "10 years nothing you built today that depends on JS for the content will be available, visible, or archived anywhere on the web."
# capjamesg[d] aaronpk passkeys speed up auth so much ๐
# capjamesg[d] I love being able to auth with a fingerprint.
# capjamesg[d] It feels so cool ๐
# carrvo[d] tantek++ for being able to admit you were wrong. That would have been written around the time I first touched code!

# _pi_r2_0[d] third party service: broken. JS-based core: working ๐
# _pi_r2_0[d] that's all the JS there is ๐
# _pi_r2_0[d] microsite ๐
# _pi_r2_0[d] well you can also switch layouts
# carrvo[d] @tantek example of the first time I touched code? Yeah https://github.com/carrvo/Comatose (delayed before posting) contains the very first code I wrote. I mean, outside of my university assignments...

# carrvo[d] My first code was crazy because I had a threading issue and knew nothing about it, so I resolved it by adding pointer dereferences until it worked...

# carrvo[d] Yes, I, uh, uploaded the binary executable to the repo...
# _pi_r2_0[d] [tantek] it's just illustrative, not functional. I'm sure it's also doable in CSS but (1) didn't know how (2) JS proves functional to this day ๐

# [tantek]1 carrvo[d], ah I thought you had a JS example per the post
# carrvo[d] I have only touched web code in the last year. I started with C++
# carrvo[d] Sorry, no. I meant a light comment on how young I am!
