would it make sense to mark the person's profile url with u-url u-uid?
#
snarfed1
sure! i'm guessing mf2 consumers probably wouldn't interpret that to prefer that url though

Hello, aaronpk
#
aaronpk
I now have a way to simulate HTTP requests in my tests, so that's cool
wavis and lukebrooker joined the channel
#
aaronpk
omg i can't find an example of an actual pingback request
#
aaronpk
i made one up
#
KevinMarks_
did it have the word "viagra" in?
#
aaronpk
no i need the actual xmlrpc response
#
GWG
KevinMarks_: It is comments like that that make people uninterested in fixing linkback spam.

#

hopefully tomorrow I can do some for webmention. will be way easier to craft the HTTP responses

oh god.. I guess I should start preparing for either significant changes to Tumblr & Flicr or even their sudden death: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/10/technology/yahoo-alibaba-spinoff.html
#
petermolnar
as for Flickr, I have no idea if it's even possible to archive it
#
petermolnar
not as an individual, but it's an insane amount of data, so I guess archive.org would pass on this

it's yahoo, there is no such thing as premature; always remember geocities

also i wonder how much data Flickr does have. i bet they've said before somewhere

wondering how much longer I should keep support for php 5.3 and 5.4 in this library since they are both officiall EOL now

5.4 is EOL? wow.

still thinks of 5.2 as relatively new

GWG, thanks for the heads-up. I'll keep trying to contact others.
shiflett joined the channel
#
aaronpk
tantek: it's only a little extra work, means I can't use the new array syntax [1,2,3] and have to do array(1,2,3) as well as some other nice syntax things
yakker joined the channel
#
tantek
that array syntax already works in JS right? [1,2,3]
#
aaronpk
yeah since forever
j12t joined the channel
#
aaronpk
the new php syntax means you should be able to get rid of any cassis code you were using to handle the old php syntax
#
@tinokremer
Being fully independant on the #indieweb I benifit from the tools and protocols the community has created and it's all very easy to use.

petermolnar: yeah it was EOL in September http://php.net/eol.php
#
Zegnat
76% of all Wordpress’ tracked installations are on PHP 5.4 or older though. It is going to take a long time for hosts to update, I fear :(
#
aaronpk
dreamhost is pretty good about proactively pushing people to upgrade PHP at least
#
petermolnar
Zegnat I click on the link, got "Here are some charts showing what sorts of systems people are running WordPress on.
#
petermolnar
(You’ll need Javascript enabled to see them.)
#
Zegnat
Yes, if you have not disabled JS, give it a while to load the graphs
#
Zegnat
It loaded terribly slow here, too
#
petermolnar
JS is enabled; only external, out-of-domain things are block
#
petermolnar
... apparently, wordpress.org loads js from google
#
Zegnat
Ah, yes, it does, it uses Google’s graph JS
#
Zegnat
I am not blocking Google and I still have to wait a ffew seconds for that page to render though. I have no idea what WP is thinking
#
petermolnar
I'm not blocking anything, apart from out-of-domain requests
#
petermolnar
which recently made me realize that: google fonts are loaded everywhere, even where it's not used; google analytics is even more everywhere; google api are like fonts
#
petermolnar
( also that most of the sites have an additional domain name for 'cdn' and domain sharding which is obsolete with http2 )
#
Zegnat
Yes, for my firewall settings and content blocking configs I cannot wait for people to stop this crazy domain sharding

[snarfed]
a little too flexible? :P

yea, so that was a great test of it and I'm glad it's now solid - I can now feel good about adding tests and generating a code coverage report

gRegorLove: interesting, good question. bridgy doesn't do that explicitly, so i expect it's FB that makes an app-specific album
