tantek notice more dev talk in #indieweb by kevinmarks, snarfed, GWG https://chat.indieweb.org/2017-10-22#t1508704624015000
#
Loqi [[kevinmarks]] I should port woodwind to appengine, their datastore would be a better fit than a DB
#
tantek what is appengine
#
Loqi Google App Engine is a an application hosting service that supports several programming languages https://indieweb.org/AppEngine
#
tantek what is a datastore
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "datastore" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
tantek what is a DB
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "DB" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
tantek what is a database
#
Loqi A database is software and or storage accessed via the software for storing data in a structured way, used by some indieweb projects https://indieweb.org/database
#
tantek DB is /database
#
Loqi ok
#
tantek what is storage
#
Loqi storage in the context of the indieweb usually refers to how you are storing your data, specifically in what kind of storage format(s) https://indieweb.org/storage
#
tantek datastore is /storage
#
Loqi ok

#
[kevinmarks] The appengine datastore is not exactly a database. Or maybe it's an object database
#
tantek who knows, but it's definitely not user talk. it's dev talk
#
tantek we really gotta keep that stuff out of the main channel because it just intimidates pretty much any newcomer
#
[kevinmarks] Fair.
#
[kevinmarks] Having done the "parse feeds and store them in MySQL" thing, I know that there are better ways
#
tantek !tell ShaneHudson hey next time you come by let's chat a bit about your tweet https://twitter.com/ShaneHudson/status/921742171665043461
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
@ShaneHudson @rachelandrew Depending how your webmentions are set up.. wonder if you could fairly easily let readers update your events/podcasts by linking them? (twitter.com/_/status/921742171665043461)
#
tantek ok serious question, is it really too hard to read the wiki that we have to ask open ended questions without first checking the wiki?
#
tantek this is specifically aimed at devs
