darnit, FB seems to have removed all_activity
#
tantek
it just serves your profile back to you
#
tantek
should've taken more screenshots
#
aaronpk
no way!
#
tantek
now I'm starting to get paranoid like snarfed and kylewm
#
tantek
I just see you profile page

Loqi
tantek meant to say: I just see your profile page
#
tantek
so either this is a bug
#
aaronpk
guess only i can see it
#
tantek
OR they are slowly rolling out the removal of it
#
tantek
and you got lucky with an older server
#
aaronpk
was it possible to see other peoples' pages?
#
tantek
better grab screenshots from top, scroll, etc. be sure to get as many (implied) post types as possible
#
aaronpk
weird that it serves your profile page and doesn't redirect
#
tantek
right - that's a half-complete patch

the spotify listens dominate the feed for quite a while

kylewm: snarfed: birdgy keeps resending Google+ likes for a second time. is this a bug?
#
kylewm
KartikPrabhu: what's bridgy doing? Sending new likes twice or resending old likes?
#
KartikPrabhu
resending old ones
#
KartikPrabhu
I suspect that bridgy does not know that it has sent those (since G+ does not have URLs for them) and sends them again when it finds them in my G+ stream
#
kylewm
It may be that the format changed when snarfed changed it to not have an e-content, and so it send them as "updates"
#
KartikPrabhu
aah I see. Not to worry, I replace the old ones whenever a new one is resent

And also requiring https would have been a massive blocker for me earlier on; a warning and some friendly tips for getting started would be good though
#

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
snarfed joined the channel
#
kylewm
rhiaro: there's some competition between the UX and security there, I agree it would have been bad to lose all my accounts when i switched to https, but now that i have switched, I don't want my accounts to be accessible via someone logging in with http://kylewm.com
#
rhiaro
kylewm: good point. Maybe accounts should be merged after the first https login
#
rhiaro
also, related question: do I need different certs for subdomains?
wolftune joined the channel
#
GWG
rhiaro: Wildcard addresses that.
#
rhiaro
GWG: wildcard is out of my price range
#
GWG
rhiaro: What is your price range?
#
rhiaro
GWG: < $25/year ideally
#
rhiaro
I was recommended namecheap, which does single domain for $8
#
kylewm
haven't tried it, but globalsign has free wildcard certificates for open source projects https://www.globalsign.com/en/ssl/ssl-open-source/
#
kylewm
rhiaro: yeah I like that idea, "welcome https://kylewm.com, you have previously logged in with http://kylewm.com, would you like to upgrade your existing account to https?"
#
GWG
rhiaro: startssl is free if you want something basic.
#
kylewm
free for non-wildcard
#
rhiaro
I looked at startssl initially but then their pay-to-revoke thing seemed like kind of a jerk way to do business. But maybe I'll use that while I'm finding my feet and spend money when I have more idea what I'm doing
#
GWG
rhiaro: If they give you the certificate for free, they have to charge for something.
#
rhiaro
oh turns out one of my domains (not my main one) came with a free ssl cert anyway
#
rhiaro
GWG: sure, I understand that, it seems like it would leave a lot of people unable/unwilling to pay and then left insecure
#
GWG
rhiaro: I am not necessarily defending them.

If you wait, the Let's Encrypt effort might change the landscape for non commercial entities

well it's a thing I want to do... :) I don't know if it's a thing anyone supports

#
aaronpk
also is there any reason we can't make hubs recognize the publish using "hub.topic" instead of "hub.url"?
#
aaronpk
switchboard accepts both already
#
aaronpk
just seems weird to subscribe using a parameter named "hub.topic" and then publish to "hub.url"
#
kylewm
i agree it is weird
#
aaronpk
the publish ping isn't even part of the spec, so I don't see why not

did they break reply context? that looks like their new QT thing

If you put meta tags after the body are they hoisted by html?
#
KevinMarks__
I think it should be displayed inline as a blockquote at the point in th teach it occurs, so you could post before or after

oh no lol

KevinMarks__
Hm, could do that with autoembed, like we do for images

KevinMarks__
Except it would need to call a service or something

(injecting the twitter embed iframe would be too much)
alexhartley joined the channel
#
KevinMarks__
So back to the meta tags thought. I noticed
#
KevinMarks__
That otherwise minimal sites spend the first precious ramp-up packets transmitting metadata cruft for silos. Could we put meta tags at the end?
#
snarfed
KevinMarks_: i kinda doubt that would make a big difference in end user latency
#
KevinMarks__
I suppose the actual question is "does fb parse meta tags not in head" which is testable
#
snarfed
time to first byte generally far outweighs time to first 5KB
#
KevinMarks__
Certainly they should be after any things that queue other fetches, just wondering why the look most important of all

apparently you need at least OpenSSL 0.9.8j to support SNI

bingo!
#
aaronpk
so she's asking the hosting company to update the server now, since 0.9.8b is ridiculously old

Aaronpk, does your autoembed already inline the tweet? Is it recursive?
#
kylewm
in php, I'm using curl_setopt(CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('hub.url' => s)) where s is a string of comma separate url-encoded urls
#
kylewm
that will result in double-urlencoding those urls won't it?
#
aaronpk
actually you're sending a multipart request in that case
#
aaronpk
you have to http_build_query and pass a string to the POSTFIELDS
#
kylewm
ok that's very helpful. I think I still have to do the form encoding myself since it's this weird form-encoded, comma-separated thing
