  1. ↪ Evan Prodromou: If you were thinking about Kickstarting an Open Source RSS reader, well, today's the day.

    evanp funny, I’ve been thinking of doing that for a while. Not sure I’ve got what it takes though, and I’m booked up for the next 4 months :/

  2. ↪ Jovian Salak: Yippee a new #pope. Why is everyone so excited? The new pope will still have to defend the *integrity* of a ridiculous religious corporation

    Jovian Salak u dissin pope? HE WHO WEARS POPE GEAR (large, medium or small), WHOSE COMING IN THE POPEMOBILE IS ANNOUNCED BY WHITE SMOKE? BOW BEFORE HIS POPE HAT

  4. ↪ Josh Emerson: @BarnabyWalters One-day-olderness day surely. It’s not like you become a year older in a day.

    Josh Emerson well that’s the point — the way we calculate age is so arbitrary I thought I'd poke fun at it. “One day olderness day” is even better, but not so feasible for putting on cards :)

  8. Finally decided that symfony Security component is way too complicated for my little , so ditching it — but I’ve learnt a lot from digging through it and my further efforts will try to provide some of the amazing flexibility it gives whilst being more performant and easier to understand #php

  9. I really can't stress just how brilliant the identengine.com API is. Solves so many problems, implements so many standards, but more importantly: it is truly, truly webby. Forming a graph of a persons profiles by following rel links, then accumulating all that info is a vital building block. Great work Glenn Jones!

  14. ↪ Aral Balkan: So http : // twitter . com / @aral (sans spaces, of course) is a valid URL. If clients used it as a mention we’d have fully-qualified names.

    Aral Balkan current rough consensus is to use URLs as nouns, pingback (or webmention) as notification infrastructure.

    Personally I am doing some rather more complex stuff where I author notes using @-names, which get parsed by @cassisjs into .h-x-username twitter.com-linked anchors, then I transform those into .h-card’s with data either from my contacts DB (at the mo mirrored from my personal CardDAV share) or from the identengine.com API for people I don’t know. Then all the links in a note get sent pingbacks.

    Fat chance of twitter implementing that though ;)

  15. ↪ Jovian Salak: @BarnabyWalters It's like cheese - all it takes is a couple of drops of lemon, and BOOM, milk becomes curds! Okay, maybe not best e.g...

    Jovian Salak “BOOM”? I would be concerned if milk made that noise when mixed with lemon!
