Continuing my periodic chore of uploading all Indiewebcamp videos to archive.org, just uploaded all of the videos I could find from IWC Nuremberg 2018. Because…why not?

Simple Location for WordPress 4.1.12 Released
A new version of Simple Location is out. Version 4.1.12 has many under the hood tweaks/fixes, and only one major user facing feature, a redo of the caching system. The caching system is used by the weather system to avoid poling for the weather on every refresh. There is now a setting in each widget to set the cache frequency. I recommend at least 300 seconds(5 minutes). The weather won’t change that much, and if you are using an API key, this will reduce, assuming your site gets 1 visit per second, requests from 86400 to only 288 times a time.
I did try to implement trip support in this version, but due to issues, I have pushed that off to rethink.

Testing adding a bookmark to Pinboard from my site.
If it helps, stop by chat.indieweb.org/wordpress and we can help in realtime.
Soon more networks may try this.
Student loan debt has surpassed the $1 trillion mark nationwide, surpassing credit card and auto loan debt.
How do I get this passed?
If you’ve ever wondered how much you should tip a waiter, bartender, cab driver, hotel bellman, or barista, look no further.
I’d much rather the price of my meal included paying the server a fair wage, making a tip a true gratuity rather than an obligation.
It had flooding, mudslides and stranded drivers.
The Gothamist reports yesterday was New York’s 10th rainiest day in recorded history.
The Toronto Public Library was asked to pull copies of "Hop on Pop" by Dr. Seuss because it "encouraged children to use violence against their fathers."
I really hope the person who submitted this to the Toronto Library was joking.
A restaurant whose entire bathroom-related theme — complete with toilets as seats, dishes with hilariously fecal names, and miniature toilet-shaped bowls for your food — seems to have b…
United Federation of Teachers President Michael Mulgrew said Monday that the current system is unfair to minority students who deserve to attend Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, Brooklyn Tech and five other specialized high schools.
I went to Bronx Science. I recall a good amount of diversity. But, I agree an SAT like test is not necessarily the best way to admit people to a school. Wonder if I’d have gotten in if that were the only factor.
It took me a moment to realize what it was exactly since I hadn’t yet added a field to indicate it, but since the IndieWeb chat doesn’t send webmentions by itself, I’m glad I support re
