Is there any talk on allowing Elements https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#elements to apply to more than query/queryAll?

karlcow: that's actually a natural-language chatter bot somebody wrote that seems to have gotten out of hand
06:25
<MikeSmith>
karlcow: the clue is that his name is an anagram of the French word for "wingnut"
06:28
<karlcow>
pfew… I had doubts.

Oh look, moving DOM attributes to prototypes is back for another round on blink-dev
08:23
<annevk>
Please place your bets now
08:36
<MikeSmith>
haha
08:38
<MikeSmith>
I'll take any bet against that at 40-1
08:40
<MikeSmith>
5 years from now we'll still be waiting on that to happen

<annevk>
Bit more hopeful that it sticks though, provided the perf claims are true this time around
08:55
<MikeSmith>
yeah I'm just trolling
08:55
<MikeSmith>
I'm actually optimitistic too
08:56
<MikeSmith>
I know haraken's put a ton of work into trying to make it happen
09:29
<annevk>
I wish GitHub had an option to ignore a thread until you're mentioned again
09:30
<annevk>
Sometimes people pull me in to ask something but then the thread goes on after for a long time without needing any input from me
09:30
<annevk>
I guess I'm just going to unsubscribe in those cases and require out-of-band contact

darobin: Was there one of those "file a bug on this spec" implementations that's trivial to drop into ReSpec specs?
10:25
<darobin>
jgraham: you mean a script that, say, takes your selection and uses that to fill out the bug?
10:25
<darobin>
or just generating a link to the bug tracker?
10:27
<jgraham>
darobin: More like the former. Something that allows me to somehow file a bug saying "this part of the spec sucks" where it is obvious what "this" is, without leaving the spec
10:28
<darobin>
jgraham: no, ReSpec deliberately stops at generation and does not take care of adding interactivity down the line
10:29
<darobin>
jgraham: but if this is for a bugzilla tracker there's a script you can use, not great but sort of operational
10:29
<jgraham>
"Not great but sort of operational" sounds better than "not". Which is what we currently have.

darobin: Thanks!

<darobin>
it will take selected text into account, but it won't report stuff like scrolling offset if the user just clicks the button without selection
10:31
<darobin>
a pleasure

JakeA: I don't really think it's desirable to expose HTTP push directly
11:20
<annevk>
JakeA: it's rather nice that it's transparent to the application what protocol is in use
11:22
<JakeA>
annevk: I had a half-baked idea of response.push containing an array of {request, response}. But I agree I don't think it's particularly important
11:23
<annevk>
I would imagine you'd get a distinct pushfetch event or some such
11:23
<annevk>
But it seems a bit like a hack to expose network protocol details in that manner
11:24
<annevk>
Because what you'll get is exactly what he proposes, that applications become dependent on the protocol
11:24
<JakeA>
yeah, also I really don't know enough about http/2 to make a decent call here. I'm not even sure if pushed resources are part of a specific response or part of the general stream
11:24
<JakeA>
agreed

"Your message to Unbearable awaits moderator approval" IETF lists suck so much
12:22
<annevk>
(same for the WHATWG list, but at least it's just a onetime affair)
12:25
<annevk>
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-balfanz-https-token-binding-00#section-3.4 is funny. "an XML HTTP request", "the XmlHttpRequest object", "the XmlHttpRequest", "web origin", ... oh my

After watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRYN2xt11Ek I have been wondering if there’s a place for their Event Model in native JS so I’ve thrown this very rough demo together: http://sandbox.thewikies.com/EventObserver/
14:26
<annevk>
JonathanNeal: comes up every now and then within TC39
14:27
<annevk>
JonathanNeal: I stopped working on https://gist.github.com/annevk/5238964 when I learned that, but I don't think much progress has been made
14:29
<JonathanNeal>
Yea, I like that.
14:45
<JonathanNeal>
I wanted to use the name `then` instead of `forEach`, but in Promises you never fire the onFulfilled method multiple times, right?
14:47
<annevk>
JonathanNeal: right, a promise either returns a value or throws, similar to a function
16:13
<JonathanNeal>
annevk: how could I bring this to folks-that-know-how-to-pitch-ideas attention?
16:28
<annevk>
JonathanNeal: I'm not sure what you mean
17:12
<Domenic>
annevk: I think Unsubscribe does that actually. Unsubscribe is not "Ignore"
17:24
<benjamingr>
Domenic: I'm in a meeting about DOM web components and other web standards stuff - do I send anyone from google or another place pics?
17:24
<Domenic>
benjamingr: I don't really understand? Why would anyone want pictures of your meeting?
17:26
<benjamingr>
Haha, don't know - it's not my meeting at all. I just got invited and there are 200 people here. Google and other companies has this thing where it likes meetings and stuff so I wanted to know if anyone would care.
17:37
<rafaelrinaldi>
benjamingr take a selfie of you doing a gang sign on stage and send us
17:50
<benjamingr>
Hah sure
18:18
<annevk>
Domenic: oh okay

<wanderview>
is SharedArrayBuffer a spec'd thing?
19:09
<annevk>
wanderview: oh is that out?
19:09
<annevk>
wanderview: in December it seemed like it was mostly lth's idea
19:21
<wanderview>
annevk: I was told in #jsapi that its not out yet
19:28
<Domenic>
wanderview: I don't know if this is related but it's the arraybuffer technology I'm most excited about: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/ArrayBuffer/transfer
19:38
<JonathanNeal>
I’m trying to formalize an idea of EventObservers http://sandbox.thewikies.com/EventObserver/ What would be the place to pitch this? DOM mailing list?
19:39
<caitp->
which one
19:39
<botie>
i think which one is correct?
20:02
<smaug____>
JonathanNeal: I guess dom mailing list
20:03
<JonathanNeal>
smaug____: thanks!
21:19
<annevk>
Domenic: SharedArrayBuffer is shared memory
21:19
<annevk>
Domenic: it's much more exciting and also much more scary
21:20
<Domenic>
@_@
21:20
<caitp->
shmemory
21:33
<wanderview>
annevk: Domenic: yea, but kind of cool we can use the ideas in this issue to share the buffers from a pipe with another worker for processing, etc: https://github.com/whatwg/streams/issues/253
