| 13:14 | <annevk> | I wish GitHub organization owners could delegate some of their powers, but not all. It makes no sense for the WHATWG that only owners get to invite people to it, but it makes a lot of sense that only a few people get to create and delete repositories. |
| 16:36 | <annevk> | foolip: thanks for pushing https://github.com/w3c/gamepad/issues/8 |
| 16:37 | <annevk> | foolip: somehow nobody involved understands it's actually important to get lifetimes right |
| 16:37 | <annevk> | (excepting Ted here, I suppose, but he's no longer doing browsers anyway) |
| 16:38 | <foolip> | annevk: np, I just followed links until I found what seems like the root problem. |
| 16:38 | <foolip> | annevk: sorting it out doesn't seem all that hard, but we'll see |
| 16:39 | <annevk> | foolip: that's what I thought, but it's also 4yo |
| 16:49 | <foolip> | annevk: by now probably live objects are required for web compat, and TBH that seems sensible for the API shape. To return a new "Gamepad" each time something has changed, even if there's a stable ID, seems kinda bizarre. API shape should have been different for that to make sense. |
| 16:53 | <annevk> | foolip: I don't really care, as long as it's defined and it actually ends up working that way |
| 16:54 | <annevk> | foolip: I recall there being some issues with true liveness as well, but dunno |
| 21:34 | <TabAtkins> | Yeah, live makes the most sense there also for intended use-case of polling in a loop. |
