# [00:15] <roc> partly for my own curiosity, and partly so when people advocate a monoculture I can say, among other things, "and these Webkit people agree with me"
# [00:15] <jamesr> who's advocating a monoculture?
# [00:15] <roc> because whenever *I* say a monoculture is bad, people who disagree say that that's just because I'm not part of the monoculture
# [00:15] <roc> jamesr: John Resig
# [00:16] <jamesr> he's not part of the WebKit leadership (or the community in general AFAIK)
# [00:16] <roc> people commenting on my blog post
# [00:16] <roc> right
# [00:16] <nimbu> why is this such an 'us vs them' discussion?
# [00:16] <nimbu> its not 'with us or against us'
# [00:16] <roc> I didn't say the "screw Web standards, we want a Webkit monoculture" movement is actually coming from the Webkit community
# [00:17] <jamesr> i think that would be fairly obvious
# [00:17] <nimbu> idiotis are uniformly distributed
# [00:17] <nimbu> -i
# [00:17] <nimbu> (clearly i am an idiot)
# [00:17] <jamesr> for the record, i'm also against smallpox, terrorism, and that nasty feeling you get when your sock gets wet inside your shoe
# [00:17] <roc> jamesr: it's not obvious to John Resig at least, and he's no idiot
# [00:17] <jamesr> is he?
# [00:17] * Quits: carbonix (~vcarbune@86.121.18.226) (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
# [00:18] <jamesr> is he implying that the WebKit leaders want a monoculture, or that *he* wants a monoculture?
# [00:18] <nimbu> and i dont think he has ever advocated 'screw other browsers' theory
# [00:18] <roc> he does, or at least, he doesn't care if there is one
# [00:18] <jamesr> if the answer is that *he* wants a monoculture, then the inclinations of WebKit leaders is kind of irrelevant
# [00:19] <jamesr> we don't have any control over what he thinks or wants
# [00:19] * karlcow doesn't understand this IRC exchange. :)
# [00:20] <jamesr> things that are bad for WebKit or the web community in general may very well be good for jresig
# [00:20] <karlcow> but I agree with nimbu on "idiotis are uniformly distributed"
# [00:20] * Joins: gnarf (~gnarf@unaffiliated/gnarf)
# [00:20] <karlcow> even on keeping the i in idiotis, it is kind of cute and make it like a disease

# [00:21] <jamesr> roc, to be clear, i think a monoculture is bad. othermaciej, to pick a "WebKit leader" who has spoken about this topic, has expressed the same sentiment consistently for years
# [00:22] <roc> jamesr: the problem is that anyone who's not a Webkit person arguing against a Webkit monoculture is easily seen as biased
# [00:22] <jamesr> so implying that the folks commenting on your blog are pulling support from an implicit or explicit advocacy for monoculture from WebKit leaders seems highly disingenuous

# [00:23] * Joins: dbaron (~dbaron@v-1045.fw1.sfo1.mozilla.net)
# [00:24] <jamesr> but you feel that WebKit community members have an obligation to argue with people on the internet?
# [00:24] <roc> there's a big discussion going on and I haven't seen Webkit leaders say anything and I'd like to. That's all.
# [00:24] <roc> Have you got something on the record I can link to at least?
# [00:24] <jamesr> i'm pretty sure this channel is logged, maciej was discussing this earlier
# [00:27] <roc> When something blows up like this I think it's helpful to reiterate positions. We don't lose a major browser engine all that often.
# [00:27] <roc> that doesn't translate into an obligation to argue with people on the Internet.
# [00:27] <jamesr> but i'm not sure what sort of statement you are trying to get. a general sentiment that monoculture is bad, or some sort of condemnation of Opera's actions?
# [00:28] <roc> the former.
# [00:28] <hober> roc: see http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/whatwg/20130214#l-990
# [00:28] <roc> I don't expect anyone to condemn Opera's actions ... I don't. They're doing what they need to do to survive.
# [00:29] <jamesr> certainly. they're in a tough spot
# [00:29] <roc> hober: thanks
# [00:29] <roc> that'll do for now.

# [02:45] <zewt> does it know that s1e2 < s2e2

# [02:46] <zewt> whatever sorting monster you're contriving :P
# [02:46] <Hixie> it is my goal that s1e2 < s2e2, yes, because they tokeniser to ["s", 1, "e", 2]
# [02:46] <zewt> ("it" may be a future-tense thing)
# [02:46] <Hixie> tokenise, even
# [02:46] <zewt> tokenize :)
# [02:47] <othermaciej> roc: I expect the vast majority of people hacking on WebKit would not want it to be the only browser engine in the world, but on the other hand most of us probably don’t care to make public statements on wacky things people say about WebKit on the internet
# [02:47] <zewt> just checking that it wouldn't treat season/episode notation as "s", 1e2
# [02:47] <othermaciej> also I doubt opinions will have much effect on how many viable browser engines actually exist
# [02:48] <roc> I think the number of people telling Web developers to not bother testing on anything other than Webkit has some effect

# [02:50] * Joins: karlcow (~karl@nerval.la-grange.net)
# [02:51] <zewt> personally i think supporting sorting exponential notations is sort of weird and unneeded and i'd much rather have some form of natural sorting (but we've had that conversation)
# [02:51] <Hixie> stuart (of sortable.js) apparently gets feedback asking for exponent support.

# [02:52] <Hixie> (seems unintuitive that this would actually occur.)
# [02:53] <zewt> (i'd question the frequency of those requests vs. the complexity, but I assume you've already done that)
# [02:54] <zewt> are they actually requests for sorting exponents mid-string, and not just as isolated strings?
# [02:54] <zewt> (may not matter in the design you're going for, just trying to get a picture)
# [02:54] <Hixie> the complexity isn't much
# [02:55] <zewt> i think you and i are going to run the internet out of parentheses
# [02:55] <Hixie> i expect the requests are for isolated
# [02:56] <zewt> maybe i'm getting towards contrived, but what if you're sorting "%04x", say a table of Unicode codepoints in hex, where "2e10" is a hex value, not an exponent

# [02:59] <Hixie> oh like hte string "2e10" meaning "2e 10"?
# [02:59] <zewt> yeah
# [02:59] <Hixie> dunno, are there pages on the web that do this?
# [02:59] <zewt> vs. 0x2e10/U+2E10
# [03:00] <zewt> don't know
# [03:00] <zewt> suppose if it became an issue, you could set a separate explicit sort key like "U+2E10" to prevent it from being sorted as a number
# [03:00] <Hixie> well at a minimum right now i'm expecting 20a1 to sort as being after 3aa1, which is something to consider

# [14:38] <MikeSmith> so when I asked Hixie about the idea of exposing an outline mechanism to Web content, he said, "the algorithm is too prohibitively expensive to expose, imho. (to expose in an environment where you can change the entire outline every 10ms)"
# [14:40] <MikeSmith> which I can understand, that would be the case if we were talking about it as a property of the document object, document.outline, that needs to get updated
# [14:40] * Joins: sedovsek (~robert@89.143.12.238)
# [14:41] <MikeSmith> but what I was asking about isn't that but instead just something like "var outline = document.createDocumentOutline()"

# [14:42] <annevk> MikeSmith: a tree of sorts?
# [14:42] <MikeSmith> yeah
# [14:43] <MikeSmith> could just be a DocumentFragment couldn't it?
# [14:43] <MikeSmith> hmm no
# [14:44] <MikeSmith> just an Outline object that is a tree of Section objects that are just nodes

# [15:23] <MikeSmith> annevk: people weren't clamoring for a lot of things that made it into the spec and that have actually been implemented and shipped
# [15:23] <annevk> Have they seen adoption?
# [15:24] <MikeSmith> sure
# [15:24] <MikeSmith> sometimes people use stuff just because it's there
# [15:25] <MikeSmith> example: the semantic/structural elements
# [15:25] <annevk> You're not making a convincing case :-)
# [15:26] <MikeSmith> anyway in this case we already have the outline algorithm in the spec
# [15:26] <MikeSmith> I'm to really proposing a new feature
# [15:26] <MikeSmith> I'm just proposing that what's already in the spec should actually be made usable
# [15:27] <MikeSmith> right now the spec for the outline algorithm pretty much has zero actual conformance requirements
# [15:28] <MikeSmith> so I can claim that dbaron's old desk is a conforming implementation of the spec for the outline algorithm
# [15:29] <Ms2ger> How about his new desk?
# [15:30] <Stevef> some developers are deeply invested in in the outline algorithm even though it doesn't currently do anything
# [15:31] <MikeSmith> Ms2ger: I haven't seen it so I can't vouch for it
# [15:31] <MikeSmith> Stevef: yeah that part baffles me a bit
# [15:31] <Stevef> and many not ever do much if the brwosers don't implement
# [15:32] <MikeSmith> but I guess it does show that there's some interest, if not clamoring
# [15:32] <Stevef> MikeSmith: its semantics its the beauty of the theoretical construction
# [15:33] <MikeSmith> somebody would only find it beautiful if they hadn't written code to implement it :)
# [15:33] <jgraham> Hmm? It is used every time the spec is generated
# [15:33] <jgraham> That seems like "doing something"
# [15:34] <MikeSmith> jgraham: you saying that anolis implements it?
# [15:35] <Stevef> jgraham: yeah thats true, now if that something was replicated in many places then...
# [15:35] <jgraham> Yes
# [15:35] <MikeSmith> ah
# [15:35] <marcosc> yeah, anolis and respec too
# [15:35] <marcosc> I think
# [15:35] <MikeSmith> well I agree that's doing something
# [15:35] <marcosc> you need to ask darobin
# [15:35] <MikeSmith> marcosc: pretty sure that respec does not
# [15:35] <Ms2ger> Anolis does?
# [15:36] <MikeSmith> respec expect you to mark up the source with <section>s, and if you don't you won't get any TOC
# [15:36] <marcosc> I thought gsnedders said it did at some point
# [15:36] <Ms2ger> It has something...
# [15:36] <darobin> ReSpec doesn't use that, it uses good markup practices instead
# [15:36] <MikeSmith> jgraham just said anolis does
# [15:36] <MikeSmith> darobin: :)
# [15:37] <darobin> I'm serious actually :)
# [15:37] <MikeSmith> well
# [15:37] <darobin> the outline algorithm is great because it saves horrible content
# [15:37] <marcosc> heh, fu and your sections, darobin
# [15:37] <Ms2ger> Looks like it does
# [15:37] <darobin> but if you can get nice content to start with it's so much better
# [15:37] <Ms2ger> I see a lot of "outlinee" in the code, at least
# [15:38] <gsnedders> Do what?
# [15:38] <gsnedders> The outlining algorithm? Yeah.
# [15:38] <MikeSmith> well, would that all tools we work on could be for a use case where you can actually enforce good markup practices
# [15:38] <marcosc> oh yeah! :)
# [15:38] <marcosc> Anolis, the conformance queen! Take that, Respec!
# [15:39] <MikeSmith> Hixie changed that word outlinee so all you alls code is now internally out of conformance with Hixie's terminology
# [15:40] <MikeSmith> it's not "outline target" I think
# [15:40] <Ms2ger> It is, I think
# [15:40] <jgraham> heh
# [15:40] <darobin> hey, at least ReSpec uses HTML
# [15:40] <jgraham> I think I eventually complained enough that outlinee looked like a typo
# [15:40] <MikeSmith> I tried to get him to throw some "palpable" in there but he said he thought he had already taken the "palpable" joke too far
# [15:40] <darobin> it's not HTML 3.2 + some server-side language like Anolis
# [15:41] <marcosc> heh
# [15:41] <MikeSmith> darobin: right now somebody here is making a meme for "at least ReSpec uses HTML"
# [15:42] <darobin> lol
# [15:42] <MikeSmith> Anolis has a Web service you can use and there's the word "Web" there so that makes it good
# [15:43] <Ms2ger> I'll rename it XAnolis, maybe then darobin will like it
# [15:43] <jgraham> SaaS is the future
# [15:43] <darobin> MikeSmith: oh, a web service you say? I had no idea it also used SOAP
# [15:44] <jgraham> My plan is to get people hooked and then start charing $5/spec generation or ad adverts to the generated spec
# [15:44] <darobin> Ms2ger: heh, I bet Anolis uses XPath :)
# [15:44] <jgraham> *add
# [15:44] <jgraham> Although right now
# [15:44] <Stevef> I am still unclear how much the outline helps when realw rold web pages get thrown at it some the example here http://www.html5accessibility.com/HTML5data/article/index.html

# [15:44] <Stevef> even real world
# [15:45] <MikeSmith> darobin: I said "Web" with the word "service" arranged after it. If I meant SOAP I would have said "clusterfuck"

# [20:02] <Hixie> MikeSmith: like people did with webgl construction
# [20:02] <Ms2ger> createVerySlowDocumentISaidSlowOutline()
# [20:02] <Philip`> It'd take an instantaneous copy-on-write snapshot of the current DOM tree, and then compute the outline asynchronously
# [20:03] <Hixie> Philip`: for a 5mb file, that can be a lot of ram or a lot of time
# [20:03] <Hixie> MikeSmith: or people running it in a tight loop, like they did with getElementsByTagName

# [20:06] <Philip`> If you're just worried about someone benchmarking the function, design it so it computes the outline synchronously (which makes the implementation easy) and then asynchronously sleeps for 500+Math.random()*100 msecs before returning the outline to a callback
# [20:06] <Hixie> gsnedders: anyway i'm just saying that there are costs and it's just not a trivial matter; i'm not saying we shouldn't expose it

# [21:13] <GPHemsley> tantek: Oh, it's been suggested before?

# [21:14] <tantek> (actually that whole wiki page is good background reading on what features we've added to the time element and why)
# [21:15] <GPHemsley> oh, like, it built up to then?
# [21:15] <GPHemsley> that's kinda iffy
# [21:15] <tantek> GPHemsley - I think it's missing the end date, e.g. see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basawan
# [21:15] <GPHemsley> ah
# [21:16] <GPHemsley> not sure that's a good usecase for approximate dates

# [21:17] <tantek> GPHemsley - I agree - I think the "Fuzzy Dates" section needs some work
# [21:17] <GPHemsley> yeah, I was considering that myself
# [21:17] <tantek> to split uncertain dates (circa) from uncertain date ranges (flourished)
# [21:17] <tantek> I just added the citation for "flourished" (since you asked what it meant :) )

# [21:23] <tantek> but for a while, it wasn't clear what was going forward and what wasn't so we tried to keep the page structure fairly stable so folks could easily re-find things when they came back to it.

# [21:24] <GPHemsley> For future reference: 1st-level headers (1 =) are reserved for page titles
# [21:24] <tantek> citation?
# [21:24] <tantek> (not that I disagree, just would be handy to know the reasoning)
# [21:24] <tantek> and is that for MediaWiki or Wikipedia only?
# [21:24] <GPHemsley> well, look at the styling of the page header ;)
# [21:25] <GPHemsley> it may be inspired by Wikipedia, but I prefer to carry it through to all MediaWiki implementations
# [21:25] <GPHemsley> given how it is marked up and/or styled
# [21:25] <tantek> I've used later 1st-level headers when it's too much of a pain (and looks bad stylistically) to increase heading levels when moving from one section to another
# [21:26] <GPHemsley> that's not exactly the greatest justification ;)
# [21:26] * GPHemsley wonders how you code in Python
# [21:26] <tantek> I don't code in Python :)
# [21:26] <GPHemsley> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MOSHEAD#Section_headings
# [21:26] <GPHemsley> "(The highest heading level technically possible is =Title=; but do not use it in articles, because it is reserved for the automatically generated top-level heading at the top of the page containing the title of the whole article.)"
# [21:27] <GPHemsley> so that's what Wikipedia says
# [21:28] <GPHemsley> given the resulting markup generated, there may also be accessibility concerns
# [21:28] <GPHemsley> (because they are literally translated to <h1>)
# [21:29] <Ms2ger> Heh: http://24.media.tumblr.com/9c78b3d6ddce1292a889a977667f10cb/tumblr_mi9sc0oIXi1rvsbh9o1_500.jpg
# [21:29] <tantek> so I think I used the level 1 headings because I wanted to a way to group the feature proposals without losing the stylistic heading underline for each specific proposal
# [21:29] <tantek> the next level of heading disappears too easily among the prose
# [21:29] <tantek> especially in a long page
# [21:30] <tantek> nah, multiple h1s doesn't hurt accessibility as long as the first h1 is done correctly
# [21:30] <tantek> same thing for WP too - the argument against using =heading= doesn't hold up because the first <h1> is just fine (and works with the page title as well)
# [21:31] * Quits: nessy (~silviapf@124-149-71-84.dyn.iinet.net.au) (Quit: Leaving.)
# [21:31] <GPHemsley> tantek: What does it mean to be "done correctly"? All the subsequent <h1>s would be at the same level as the first one.
# [21:31] <GPHemsley> But anyway, with this many sections and this length of a page, it could probably do with being split into multiple pages
# [21:32] <tantek> yeah that's a good point. I'll move the accepted proposals to a new page to start with
# [21:33] <tantek> also the intro is out-dated now that a lot of the proposals have made it into specs
