@verius Point being there's more than just json out there that's been out there for yonks. -

@bob Any site that is PCI compliant and says it doesn't store personal information about you is at the very best telling a lie of obfuscation - they're storing it in a (assumedly) temporary log rather than a database. As I need not say, both are still storing your personal information, but this half-truth is the lie the industry depends upon. -

@verius I'm pretty sure even my toaster can read CSV files now -

@verius If I can trade a few KB for the cause of human readability in the days when even the smallest data caps are measured in MB, I'm fine with that. -

Regarding the rms references: Don't get me wrong, rms advocates a somewhat extreme end of personal privacy uses that I don't honestly expect normal people to embrace, but he's never actually been WRONG about what these companies do or how they go about doing them. The choice is on the end user to make an informed choice what compromises are acceptable to them. Ev… -

@verius I don't think the JSON api representation is really a great use case that we couldn't do better in another format. -

@purplehippo A lot of them have been releasing videos pretty infrequently lately. I think him, JW, and Ross Scott are the only ones still on their regular schedule of late, which I follow. Ashens has been bare compared to his previous output unless you include his crossover with BEST GAME EVER. -

I hate data formats that add unneccesary complexity to something, and json and xml tend to do that in most cases. XML has a use at least though, I've yet to find something done in json that can't just be done with a plainer (and more human readable) file however. -

Added an issue to remind myself of the ND project, forgot I was logged into the admin account though. Ah well. It's there, that's the important thing. -

@verius Reminds me, I should go through and slap NaturalDocs into everything where there's existing commenting so I can have it spit out human-readable (and more importantly, much more easily searched) documentation. -

@verius I believe this is a case of inconsistent terminology. 'status' and 'notice' are used interchangably here. Status seems to be a remnant from 'StatusNet'
If it wouldn't break other client's, I'd want to go through and correct the terminology to be consistent. This is a lot of why I think a new API is a good idea. -

@archaeme @verius I don't honestly think its too much better. Both APIs are in a state of neglect and disrepair. Something modern/up-to-date is on my todo list. We saw how much better things work with the redis queue. -

@verius /actions/apitimeline[home|public|etc].php has the definitions, but noticeID is the one you want for a notice.
It doesn't help that the terminology is inconsistent here. in_reply_to_status_id is used to refer to a notice which you're replying to. -

@bob @archaeme That'd do it. I'll unfollow the old one then. -

@archaeme @bob Sorry, it took me a bit to grep the relevant bit out of the logs (mine are huge, forgot to set up logrotate.d on the new box) But here's the relevant bit if someone can pass it on to Bob: 2016-12-11 09:58:40 LOG_ERR: [http://status.hackerposse.com/url/13303.19ed9d28 GET /api/statuses/public_timeline.json?since_id=473698&_=1481104784232] HTTPClient: H… -

@purplehippo @verius @archaeme Actually the big restriction is family sharing. In many regions you literally cannot use that feature if you don't have steam guard. I have a feeling that they carefully chose the regions they felt they could skirt the consumer protection laws thereof in this regard. -

@verius @archaeme rms had a good write-up on the reasons why somewheres on his gargantuan personal website. -

@archaeme @verius The current trend seems to be biometric security, which is a bad, bad idea for many reasons in many applications where it is used.
