You can IndieAuth into Stack Overflow now? 😮

@keithjgrant indieauth.com is one of the only remaining OpenID providers, and Stack Overflow still accepts OpenID logins

Got a Google Sheets question too long for 140 Twitter, and IndieAuth․com won’t talk to meyerweb․com so I can’t post it to StackOverflow. 😭

@meyerweb I just updated the user agent that indieauth.com sends so it should work for you now!

@meyerweb Strange, your Wordpress is returning a 403 error when the user agent is set to Chrome 43!

@aaronpk Sounds like I should be able to try on the PI just curious,. I use the Trails app to record walks at the moment and play with leaflet.js to display with photos. So I'f be interested in varying the rate of recording. Most of my weekday would be very boring. Home->Work->Home

ah cool so you're mostly interested in the trip tracking aspect of it? Not so much the passive continuous aspect? I bet I could put together a mini app that publishes a feed like this: https://aaronparecki.com/transport

@aaronpk This looks like good fun. Can compas be installed by none dev types on share hosting? or a Raspberry pi?

@johnjohnston I'm considering building a mini version of Compass, and I'm curious, what is the most important feature of location tracking for you? Having full history? Sharing your realtime location with friends? Something else?

@johnjohnston It's a bit complicated to set up right now, it wasn't really meant for shared hosting. Definitely doable on a Raspberry Pi tho.

3. Also, most parsers that consume them only work if you render your HTML server-side.

@shuoink Plenty of examples of why that's a bad idea here: https://indieweb.org/js;dr Fine for web apps, not so much for documents.

if the HTML isn't rendered server side, it's not a website. it's a web app, and will most likely be lost to time https://indieweb.org/js;dr

2. Would much rather see it use namespaced data-* attributes.

@shuoink data attributes are "not intended for use by software that is independent of the site" https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-20110525/elements.html#embedding-custom-non-visible-data-with-the-data-attributes

Just learned that Kevin Mitnick references my website in his latest book. Wow.

@benwerd That's awesome, but the demo is broken! Browsers won't give access to the location APIs w/o SSL anymore and there's no cert!

Anyone know of good open source time tracking software? Preferably web server + app. I’m using Toggl at the moment, but would love to self host and am amazed that the only projects I can find are very old and rather clunky looking.

Toggl is the best one I've found as well, been using it for a while now.

I'm using Invoice Ninja for sending out invoices and collecting payments, and they recently added a time tracking feature. I haven't used that feature myself, but it's something to look into

yes, they are still a thing. If they are being used or not … I find that to be a case-by-case basis. Docs haven’t been updated in YEARS!

@anotheruiguy which docs were you looking at? There's been lots of updates in the last few years, e.g. https://microformats.io

Good to know. We did spend about $15k but that was for three stages and including audio systems (for attendees) for each stage

@edolnx including audio that's pretty good. I'll be curious to read your follow-up post after you've tuned the system a bit more!

@aaronpk You've been tracking your location for yrs. Have you written anything about whether this info can remain private, and how does Google, or anyone, make money off your own location tracking? Is Big Brother watching & should we care?

I don't usually get into that side of things. Too little actual information available.

Neat! We make heavy use of compositing and on-screen graphics so I don't know if it would be a good solution for us, but thanks for sharing.

@edolnx and if you're talking about spending ~$15k then you can probably afford one of the fancier BMD ones for even more layer support!

@edolnx You can use a dedicated computer just for titling and then green-screen it onto the video! I'd take a look at the Blackmagic one.

Installing now! Very excited. Love @RideReportApp, but want multimodal & refuse to reinstall FB Moves app since they lied about sharing data

@karabaic uhoh I hadn't heard about Moves. The only downside with this app is 1) trip tracking is manual, and 2) it's BYOB.
