Hixie: about the multipage spec, if it helps I can set up some alternative generator for now
01:38
<MikeSmith>
alternative to whatever Anne has set up I mean
01:38
<MikeSmith>
until Anne gets back

<hsivonen>
it seems that "perfectly good" is a reason for suspicion
09:03
<jgraham>
hsivonen: ?

<zcorpan>
Hixie: could you make a new snapshot of the spec in http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/ ?
10:09
<yolin>
the webapps spec recommends it to be read backwards at least once... hehehehahahaa

"support. and ideas their for Hendral and Pillar to and crew, #whatwg the and crew, #mrt.no the crew, #mrt the to inspiration, for Documents Compound and Applications Web on Workshop W3C the of attendees the to ideas, some for community blogging Microsoft the to also Thanks"
10:16
<wilhelm>
It all makes much more sense now.
10:17
<jgraham>
It's like Let It Be. If you play it backwards it has a hidden message telling you that Hixie's dead.

"for Documents Compound and Applications Web"
12:05
<MikeSmith>
Hixie: about dude's drag-and-drop message on the whatwg list, the reason there's no drop event is because there was a bug in WebKit that caused there not to be one
12:05
<MikeSmith>
but I think it's since been fixed
15:44
<Ms2ger>
Hmm, I guess "flexibility" is a good reason to add a redundant rgba syntax

good morning, Whatwg!

Do we have a page somewhere explaining why named constants are evil?
18:31
<TabAtkins>
AryehGregor: I don't think so, just some mailing list posts.
18:31
<AryehGregor>
TabAtkins, oh well.
18:31
<TabAtkins>
Why?
18:32
<AryehGregor>
CSSTransformValue uses them.
18:32
<TabAtkins>
Sigh.
18:32
<AryehGregor>
I want to suggest it change to use strings.
18:32
<AryehGregor>
No one but WebKit implements it anyway.
18:32
<TabAtkins>
Just suggest it. I'll support as necessary.

kk
18:34
<TabAtkins>
I'll turn this into a wiki page as well.
18:38
<AryehGregor>
Thanks.
18:46
<TabAtkins>
Ms2ger: Was that "flexibility" comment sarcastic or not?
18:46
TabAtkins
skipped most of the rgba thread once he saw Marat commenting.
18:47
<Ms2ger>
Same here

<Hixie>
holy cow, youtube has both data-* used correctly and microdata used correctly
21:40
<Hixie>
go youtube!
21:43
<TabAtkins>
Wow, it's been a long time since I've visited the youtube main page. It actually looks useful now.
21:44
<Hixie>
hopefully no press read the logs today. "Google employees surprised to learn YouTube is useful and using markup correctly"
21:45
<TabAtkins>
hahaha

just finished a youtube dive started on ferrofluid structures. Dammit.
22:32
<Hixie>
if it makes you feel better, your post linking to reddit in the thread i just replied to made me waste a bunch of time on reddit
22:32
<TabAtkins>
hahaha
22:32
<Hixie>
who the heck posts links to descriptions of 9 year olds getting their friends' dad's arms blown off
22:32
<Hixie>
jesus
22:32
<Hixie>
to a standards list, too!
22:33
<TabAtkins>
Me, I guess?
22:33
<Hixie>
yes! :-P
22:33
<TabAtkins>
Ugh, I'm going to ahve to write a counter-cp to the validity-stability thing.
22:33
<Hixie>
btw the error message in webkit for <!DOCTYPE html><embed><script>w(document.getElementsByTagName('embed')[0]())</script> is pretty funny
22:34
<TabAtkins>
That's... a weird error.
22:34
<TabAtkins>
"NPObject deleted", right?
22:34
<Hixie>
yeah
22:34
<Hixie>
(because there's no plugin, presumably)
