Aaron Parecki how about something like this?
Aaron Parecki how about something like this?
Aral Balkan sounds like your old links from when twitter’s t.co broke everything (now fixed) were cached the first time you tried — I think Aaron Parecki is adding “last fetched” indicator to make such bugs easier to detect and get round. Also your email address has relme, so you should be able to log in using Persona — yay multiple providers.
@chrismessina @ade_oshineye @scottjenson “success” is subjective, utility not so. If it scratches an itch for the creator then it’s “successful”, in the short term at least. Regarding “mainstream”, see indiewebcamp.com/antipatterns#mass_adoption
@scottjenson @chrismessina @ade_oshineye technically lockerproject looks more like PESOS. Also re: ID stuff, you’ve seen indieauth.com right? Lots of shiny new stuff there recently like persona integration, passwordless SMS login etc.
My take on generic prev/next controls on keyup, using only bean for events, based on previous work by Aaron Parecki and Tantek Çelik:
// Generic prev/next navigation on arrow key press
bean.on(document.body, 'keyup', function (e) {
var prevEl, nextEl;
if (document.activeElement !== document.body) return;
if (e.metaKey || e.ctrlKey || e.altKey || e.shiftKey) return;
if (e.keyCode === 37) {
prevEl = document.querySelector('[rel~=previous]');
if (prevEl) bean.fire(prevEl, 'click');
} else if (e.keyCode === 39) {
nextEl = document.querySelector('[rel~=next]');
if (nextEl) bean.fire(nextEl, 'click');
}
});
I have seen the future and it is PDFs on iPads.
Heading over to Bergsson Delhi — I’ll be demoing my hurdy #gurdy! Pop over if you want to hear it. Also they have good sandwiches.
My old school is publishing tracks from their concerts under CC-BY-NC-SA. Good for them! soundcloud.com/sdcc2012
There’s something very strange about seeing spam comments on a piece of legislation: publicmarkup.org/bill/superpac-act/2/201
Microsoft Word Documents; the foundations upon which our laws are built (probably).
@hugoroyd thanks! Currently indieauth login is just for me to post stuff, in the future I’ll use it to implement private content e.g. private notes, enhanced checkin resolution, maybe even spelling corrections :) Comments only accepted via indieweb commenting
@hugoroyd I don’t actually get suggestions from DDG, the suggestions are from Google, but my search goes through DDG. Thinking about it, this probably actually negates many privacy benefits and I should turn it off.
Yesterday we at Vísar tested the neat SVG image element hack on all the devices and browsers we had at hand to see how it performed and whether or not it was viable to use in production.
Given this markup:
<svg>
<image xlink:href="http://example.com/the-image.svg" src="http://example.com/the-image.png" width="100" height="100" />
</svg>
Here’s a table of what each browser+device downloaded:
Browser | Format Requested |
---|---|
Mob. Safari iOS 4.2.1 | PNG |
Mob. Safari iOS 6.1.3 | SVG |
Chrome 28 Mac | SVG |
Safari 5.1.9 Mac | SVG |
Safari 6.0.5 Mac | SVG |
Firefox 26 Mac | SVG |
Firefox 22 Mac | SVG |
IE 8.0.6 | PNG |
IE 10 | SVG+PNG |
Kindle (3rd gen) | PNG |
Note that the Kindle downloaded the PNG despite having pretty good SVG support. Tests carried out locally by watching the Django request logs.
At first, this looked perfect — browsers which supported SVG only downloaded the SVG (apart from IE 10), and other browsers just got the PNG. However, it seems that SVG image
elements can’t be sized with percentages, meaning our flexible layouts were never going to work. I tried to fix it using the dreaded viewBox
and user units (as I have previously to compensate for percentage-based units not being allowed in SVG paths), but that just led to everything being completely the wrong size.
So, (unless someone can show me how to fix this), whilst we think this is a great hack, it’s not going to work out for our product due to the weirdness of SVG sizing limitations.
#todo: write a browser extension which overrides Facebook’s über-shady LinkshimAsyncLink rewriting. What you see should be what you click.
@john_nye well I guess that answers the age-old question “who tests the tests” — TestTest does!
