# 16:30 calumryan hi tantek don’t think that’s happening, meeting for drinks and food tonight I think. Can note anything discussed but probably not suitable wifi for a stream. [cleverdevil] and benwerd joined the channel
# 17:09 GWG What's going on with remote for tomorrow? # 17:12 Zegnat sknebel and I just arrived at Vodkabar for meeting with any interested early arrivers. benwerd, gRegorLove, [stefp], tantek, [miklb], [cleverdevil] and j12t joined the channel

# 21:56 tantek only two photos out of 6 HWCs? that seems odd # 21:57 tantek did all those HWC actually happen? Nurnberg? Brighton, Frederick? # 21:57 tantek anyone on vHWC get a screenshot of participants? # 22:01 tantek hmm we didn't capture the Gothamist etc. site-death this week # 22:01 tantek that seems significant especially because it was so sudden and unannounced [eddie] joined the channel
# 22:08 [eddie] Frederick was a party of 1 ? So I didn't bother with a photo. With the holidays coming up, and not gaining very much traction I'm gonna suspend the Frederick meetings until I can meet more people in the area to be able to stabilize it a bit more. Until then, I'll just continue my occasional trips into Baltimore to see schmarty and the gang # 22:09 [eddie] I'm gonna move it into the "Needs Restarting" category on the HWC page # 22:11 tantek [eddie] sounds like a good plan, thanks for keep up with it! # 22:12 tantek hey schmarty, with so many podcasts in the newsletter itself, does it makes sense, or is there a way to make the newsletter itself a podcast? # 22:13 tantek can I subscribe to the newsletter in a podcast player and have it auto-play all the audio in the newsletter in the order that they're in in the newsletter? # 22:14 schmarty well, you can subscribe to all feeds tagged indieweb on huffduffer # 22:14 tantek so that's the same source as the newsletter, I get that # 22:15 schmarty seems like there could, in theory, be a way to pump the newsletter through a script or service of some kind of and spit out a podcast feed. # 22:15 tantek I wonder if it would be worth a short phrase/sentence of description under the headings in the newsletter to indicate that # 22:15 tantek schmarty - yeah - or I wonder what you'd have to tweak in its RSS to not even require a separate script/service # 22:16 schmarty hmm, like including them in the feed for the audio edition? # 22:17 tantek do we have a github project for the newsletter to track issues / suggestions? # 22:17 tantek schmarty, the use-case is auto-play of all that podcasts from that week # 22:18 tantek and on Friday when the newsletter is released # 22:18 tantek rather than the trickle of that huffduffer tag when they're added # 22:18 tantek same reason people like getting a digest once a week # 22:18 tantek you don't need to configure your email client for digest emails to "just work" # 22:19 schmarty heh. i will be summarizing those microcast episodes in the audio edition... # 22:19 schmarty (difficulty: i'm out at a coffee shop w/o my usual headphones) # 22:19 schmarty i like the idea of clips, but for now just summaries that i will read # 22:19 tantek aaronpk is the this-week-generator in github? # 22:20 Loqi [indieweb] this-week: Weekly digest of IndieWebCamp activity # 22:20 Loqi [indieweb] this-week: Weekly digest of IndieWebCamp activity # 22:22 tantek lol echo '<h2 id="recent-events">Recent Events</h2>'; # 22:24 aaronpk the way it sends the email is it replaces the "rss feed" every week, and mailchimp is set to email out when a new item appears in the RSS feed # 22:24 aaronpk it wouldn't be hard to have this also generate a separate RSS feed for just the items in the podcast section, so that you could subscribe to that in a podcast player # 22:24 tantek can a single RSS item have multiple enclosures? # 22:25 tantek what's the worst that could happen? crash someone's RSS consuming code? # 22:26 aaronpk i always forget how to find the itunes docs on their podcast rss format # 22:27 aaronpk doesn't say what happens with multiple enclosures # 22:27 tantek hahahaha that's one of the funnier js;dr I have seen # 22:34 tantek do you see the "Lorem ipsum" near the bottom? # 22:38 tantek yeah no that's not Latin according to Google Translate # 22:39 tantek js;dr captured. back to some minor newsletter tweaks to see if aaronpk agrees :) # 22:41 schmarty tantek: i noticed that, too, haha! that reminds me, i should probably order another shirt sometime soon. mine is showing some wear. # 22:41 tantek are there any more to order? I thought it was sold out? # 22:42 tantek let's see if I can put together a pull-request of multiple files online # 22:45 aaronpk 3 small, 2 large, but the white is slightly misaligned. there are another 1 small and 1 large that are good prints. # 22:45 tantek just realized he asked the same question twice and just didn't see the answer from aaronpk the first time. sorry! benwerd joined the channel
# 23:04 Loqi [tantek] #7 short "From" context phrases for each section for sources # 23:04 tantek I like brief inline docs (instead of longer separate docs), discoverability, and lowering the barrier from reading to contributing # 23:05 tantek aaronpk, schmarty in particular your opinions [cleverdevil] joined the channel
# 23:07 tantek whoa aaronpk I saw that merge happen when the page updated as I was looking at it! # 23:07 Loqi real-time comments are the display of comments on a view of a post (typically on its permalink) as they are received by the post (presumably via webmention), without needing any explicit user reloading, refreshing, or any other tapping/clicking etc https://indieweb.org/real-time_comments # 23:08 tantek I really want to do that as an indieweb demo with audience participation # 23:09 tantek aaronpk is there any way to see what it would generate without running the whole work flow? # 23:10 aaronpk i checked the files for syntax errors tho and it all passes # 23:10 tantek and I'm pretty good at typing valid HTML off the top of my head # 23:11 aaronpk it was a small enough change and the github diff shows exactly what changed, i'm sure it's fine :) benwerd, [miklb] and [kevinmarks] joined the channel
