Mek: prolly XHR
00:29
<annevk>
Mek: XHR has yet to migrate to Bikeshed
00:29
<annevk>
Mek: the problem with doing that is that it requires IDL changes and I don't want to make IDL changes...
00:44
<TabAtkins>
(To be specific, it requires changing the name of one of the arguments of two overloaded methods.)
00:44
<TabAtkins>
(And avoiding that change is a very complicated and fraught Bikeshed change, so I'm not planning on doing it any time soon.)
01:01
<Mek>
I see... The odd part is that in the XHR spec I don't see anything obviously different between the various methods, but then I have no idea what magic/heuristics shepherd is doing to index things

<zcorpan>
wat. "A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software." https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/FAQ
07:40
<zcorpan>
who can fix this?
07:45
<zcorpan>
clearing cookies made it work
08:03
<MikeSmith>
zcorpan: I ran into that before too
08:03
<MikeSmith>
for me it cleared up on its own after a day or so
08:04
<zcorpan>
maybe that error message should suggest clearing cookies
08:04
<MikeSmith>
yeah that would be nice
08:04
<MikeSmith>
otherwise it’s just kind of baffling
08:04
<zcorpan>
or, you know, someone(TM) fix the bug in the software
08:07
<MikeSmith>
good luck to us on that
08:08
<zcorpan>
the irony that https://google.github.io/styleguide/htmlcssguide.xml?showone=Optional_Tags#Optional_Tags is itself using xml+xslt
08:08
<MikeSmith>
when I talked to Hixie about it he said he didn’t know who among us is responsible for keeping the wiki running
08:09
<MikeSmith>
haha XSLT will be with us forever
08:09
<MikeSmith>
like a guest who long overstays their welcome
08:09
<MikeSmith>
drinking all your beer
08:10
<zcorpan>
XSLT, you're drunk, go home
08:13
<MikeSmith>
haha
09:28
<nox>
zcorpan: While drunk, I'm definitely funnier than XSLT.

annevk: Is there a way to find all the specs that depend on fetch? I'm looking at which APIs should skip the service worker when used in a service worker
14:26
<JakeA>
https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/issues/303
14:26
<JakeA>
Want to do a sweep of as many APIs as possible & work out which things should be on the allow/deny list
16:12
<annevk>
JakeA: anything you can think of that does networking; not keeping a list at the moment
16:13
<JakeA>
annevk: no worries. Still settled on the opt-out-of SW list.

<salty-horse>
hi. I forgot how to report bugs on the html spec. can anyone help? (or I can just report it here)
18:31
<espadrine>
salty-horse: you can go to whatwg.org/html, select a piece of text related to the bug, click the "file an issue" link at the bottom right
18:34
<salty-horse>
thanks!
18:34
<salty-horse>
oh I totally missed that link
18:42
<salty-horse>
I find it very odd that the ImageSmoothingQuality enum is explained separately from the imageSmoothingQuality attribute
21:55
<MikeSmith>
JakeA: if anybody has a good answer for “Is there a way to find all the specs that depend on fetch”, it would be tobie I think
21:55
<MikeSmith>
I mean not specifically about fetch for the general question of find all specs that depend on some particular spec
22:13
<JakeA>
MikeSmith: cheers! Feels like something the bikeshed database might know
22:29
<MikeSmith>
for Android Chrome is there some way I can save a bookmark to my homescreen without it suppressing the browser chrome
22:30
<MikeSmith>
I need the address bar, but the Add to Homescreen thing makes that get suppressed, along with all the other browser controls
