Webmentions are great! They're how I handle all my interactions with my site i.e. https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/01/11/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-url/ under Interactions with this post and there's great support for WordPress and many static sites, among others!

Oh no! Anna Dodson was looking to get one of her own, so is a bit disappointed by the news. How come? Is it that just the island won't transfer, or nothing at all?

I use https://hetzner.cloud for my personal servers which have some in Germany but looks like not in Frankfurt unfortunately

For those wanting a bit more info on the IndieWeb, see the discussion and post on https://lobste.rs/s/zg6iok/indieweb_movement_owning_your_data_being where I shared a transcript of a conference talk I did on the subject

I use https://github.com/PlaidWeb/webmention.js to render my webmentions client-side so they're always up to date, instead of needing to rebuild the site - I've written a bit more about it at https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/06/30/client-side-webmentions/

I followed the instructions in https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/coreutils which prompts you to update your PATH: PATH="$(brew --prefix)/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH" which worked wonders, and I now no longer need to prefix with g

Used to but moved to Hetzner as performance and cost wasn't as good, and I had a few issues with downtime - one which left me with a fairly critical server dead for over 24 hours and needed restoring from backups

Anna Dodson and I have had great fun playing Good Job - it's a nice mix of casual strategy and chaos

Not that I'm aware of, sorry!

Can't comment on the Kubernetes angle, but I've been using https://hetzner.cloud and have had good experiences - fast, competitive price and no issues with unexpected downtime 👍🏽

I guess you'll have to have another 😅

Sending hugs 🤗 can't imagine having to go through this alone - I'm lucky to be living with Anna Dodson, and that both of us are quite introverted and enjoy being at home. Hopefully it won't be long until you can see them

Happy birthday 🎂 🎉

You two ♥

I also very much enjoyed this photo of #Morph and I

This is great! I may have to start posting videos of https://www.jvt.me/tags/morph/

Ooh yay!! Although I didn't see a referral come thorough 😉

You're probably doing something better than us then 😅

Brilliant write up Neil, great stuff on getting it working! Nice to see that it was a case of connecting up various IndieWeb tools for a somewhat out-of-the-box feel

Thanks! Glad to hear it helped. The library mentioned at the end of the post has a bit nicer interface, if you prefer, but I was pretty happy with the initial version too

They usually are, yes - given there's been a lot of zoombombing recently I want to get a few things in place before it's fully open for remote - sorry, and hope it'll be available for next time!

Hey Amit I meant to reach out - I think for this one I'll probably keep it as just for Nottingham, but I know the London event https://events.indieweb.org/2020/04/online-homebrew-website-club-europe-london-2Kc9aetW589f is open

It does the job perfectly, okay?? 😝

Would you consider making a Web client as well? I'd probably opt for Web then Electron if possible, but I appreciate that's probably more work

Sorry for the late reply - yeah I'm up for it! I'd still fancy primarily keeping my slot, just cause I'm a creature of habit 😅

Nice, I'll see if I'm able to drop in to say hi 👋🏽

Sony WH-1000XM3s!

Woops this was meant to be @CraigBurgess

Not only in my bio, but marked up in a machine-parseable way on my website 🙌🏼 https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/04/10/pronouns-microformats/

I keep saying we should watch Mad Max but I don't think that would help either mine or @anna_hax's anxiety

Np! Would you mind updating https://events.indieweb.org/2020/03/homebrew-website-club-barnsley-hGOqaDqcyIPP to at least say it's going to be Online? See https://events.indieweb.org/2020/03/online-homebrew-website-club-london-DNdVXaId2jig for an example

https://gitlab.com has unlimited collaborators on unlimited private git repos, as well as a tonne of other stuff built in if you want it 👍🏽

If you go for Zoom, there are official IndieWeb Zoom accounts that should be usable 👍🏽

Last few days I've had an issue where whenever I start up #firefox every tab crashes, and I can't load anything, even the settings. The only fix is to disable sandboxing. But that sounds like a slightly different issue to yours 🤔

Yep this is due to the Strong Customer Authentication regulation that is now in effect as of March 14th - you can read more about it at https://monzo.com/blog/2019/08/22/strong-customer-authentication - but it's implemented differently per bank 🤷🏽‍♂️

Aww thank you! 🤗

Great stuff, Neil! I'm sure https://snarfed.org will also be happy to hear how easy the Bridgy setup was for Meetup 👍🏽

Nice! If you manage to come along to #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham we'd be happy to have you to come work on your site 👍 The next one (https://events.indieweb.org/2020/03/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-anniversary-edition--Rcujt5SykHv1) is likely going to be a meal out, so https://events.indieweb.org/2020/04/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-UpVd9JZeVzx6 will be the next one (but I may make it remote-only due to #coronavirus)

Interesting! I'm glad it's not just me that's noticed it - I thought maybe it was a bad tin or two but sounds like not 😥

Do you mean to replace whatever custom changes you've made with the standard one Linux/Mac uses? If so, maybe source /etc/environment, but not 100% sure that'll work everywhere

Yes do!

On mobile too? That's interesting, I've not found it slow since I moved over a while ago, but not got any recent comparison with Chrome so may not be helpful

Yes do it!! Nottingham would love to have you here 😁

I guess it's more that we have development environments to play around with, the staging environment should be treated as prod - ie treat it the same with infra, security, support policies etc.

But that's true - it's better to play in staging than prod!

I've spent the last few weeks going up over the threshold and then dipping under 😅

Within my team, we use Git flow with 2 person enforced code review before a merge (within a 10 person team). We use the code review to enforce this, alongside any other changes required.

I'm a strong proponent of good commit messages, so one thing I've been doing since joining the team is encouraging this to be better.

Glances (https://www.jvt.me/posts/2017/04/26/glances/) is pretty great for system monitoring

Hope it was a non-event!

I'm glad someone in the house did at least 😂

Emma.
