[tantek] [aaronpk] should I talk to my employer because of sponsored hosting? https://www.ionos.com

[tantek] [aaronpk] can you send me some requirements for the hosting? Actual LAMP stack?
KartikPrabhu, [KevinMarks] and [schmarty] joined the channel
#
[schmarty]
[pfefferle] it's basically LAMP. ubuntu 20.04, nginx, php7.4, mysql. exact package details are on the staging-server etherpad: https://etherpad.indieweb.org/microformats-staging-server
#
aaronpk
you know, tbh it would work fine in a shared hosting environment too

[beccahughes] @kevinmarks I would like to add this proposal to http://microformats.org/wiki/existing-rel-values but it seems like account creation on the website is having some issues (broken recaptcha). Please can you take a look?
#
[tantek]
KevinMarks did you point out that a site transition was in progress?

yup - that's the next comment :)
#
[tantek]
also the whole proposal is problematic in many ways 😔
#
[KevinMarks]
Yeah, I'm going to file some more issues. Though if they are found to expose YouTube recommendations to a user agent api that's kinda interesting
#
KartikPrabhu
lol! why is rel=media-feed better than rel=feed which was objected to already in the first comment?
#
KartikPrabhu
<insert xkcd about standards>
#
[KevinMarks]
I am trying to not be rude as the author has clearly been marinated in schema thinking for a while.
#
[KevinMarks]
We write standards in the imperative mood, and it's hard to know how to get there.
#
KartikPrabhu
"marinated in schema" lol!
#
KartikPrabhu
good punk rock song title
#
[tantek]
yeah my understanding is this spec might be the result of having been conditioned in a certain technocultural context
#
[tantek]
no malicious intent, more of an opportunity to walk through the broader context of feeds, media, standards, etc.
#
[tantek]
I now greatly dislike Mark's unnecessarily mean framing / analogies / metaphors in that post KevinMarks
#
[tantek]
I think we should actively not use them, and use others instead
#
[tantek]
I'm pretty convinced meanness (even "as a joke") is part of bullying which frankly is a tool of white supremacy that should be deliberately dismantled.
#
[tantek]
KevinMarks++ appreciate your kindness and patience with the media-feeds author

Yes, I meant that a warning, trying avoid being an asshole or a moron.
#
[KevinMarks]
Though maybe https://highlightpoetry.com/ is being an asshole in Mark's sense
