↪ Sophie Dennis: @BarnabyWalters you still in Iceland?

@sophiedennis I am indeed, for the time being! How’s it going down in Devon?

Eating inaugural new-apartment hot chocolate out of a jar, exhibits interesting elasticity gradient from near-liquid at the top to properly gelled at the bottom — possibly a result of the heat conducting properties of glass vs ceramic?

Briefly tried @firefox Nightly e10s (tab process encapsulation), was very buggy, submitted bugs and disabled. Looking forward to trying this again when it’s a bit more polished!

Used the last of my @clarered @dConstruct chalk to help citizens of Exeter identify this weed:

Previously: drew hexagrams all over Brighton, a 6-pane hurdy gurdy reduction a la Picasso on a shopfront, saw “Happiness £1 this way ↑”, added “Complacency, free, right where you are standing”. Fleabane identification courtesy of @jwentomologist. #playfulcities

The Other Side of HTTPS Support

One of the main themes of IndieWebCamp UK 2014 was a heavy push for TLS support on our personal sites, mainly thanks to the eternal patience and knowledge of Tim Retout. A large proportion of the participants either got TLS working on their site for the first time or upgraded their support to remove vulnerabilities and support snazzy extra features like perfect forward secrecy.

↪ Dan York: Questions About Known (@withknown) Platform, Webmentions and security / spam

Webmention spam has already started to become a problem, especially thanks to Brid.gy’s backfeeding of twitter comments. For most of us it hasn’t yet been a big problem, but it inevitably will be in the future. There’s some ideas about potential spam prevention tools on the wiki: indiewebcamp.com/spam

Having a skill and being unafraid can look surprisingly similar.

↪ Kyle Mahan: it turns out 2 tiny files per post (json, md) for 6500 posts uses a lot of disk space. 85mb used for 1.5mb of actual data. #indieweb #flatfileproblems

@kylewm @t’s technique of having one file per bim negates this quite effectively (http://indiewebcamp.com/Falcon#Storage_format)

↪ Relly Annett-Baker: I look over my career to date, and now educating my kids, and I realise I am obsessed with feedback loops. I am weird.

@rellyab that’s a good thing! Feedback loops are awesome+important (but annoyingly difficult to visualise).

@jwentomologist beautiful, nice flare on that pot. Would love to help you make these into animated GIFs next week :)

↪ Kevin Marks: pondering webmentions of people with Aaron - it is tricky without a reader - should saying http://kevinmarks.com ping me?

@kevinmarks depends if you want it to! I’d say yes, it’s analogous to a non-reply @mention on twitter. And whilst a reader w/ mentions feed+notifications is a good UI for consuming that data, you can have it on your own site too, e.g. aaronparecki.com/mentions, and even poll+post native OS notifications e.g.

Checked into 68 Middle St. for indiewebcamp.com/2014/UK day 1. There’s still time+space for last-minute signups, coming for only one day is fine also!

@dym_cx yep, as noted it’s a self-signed certificate until I get a StartSSL one, so not required yet. I verified the cert and added an exception.
