Yes, but that is only because HTML could not get rid of them. This is new, no need for legacy.
There's room for convergence and discussion :-) You posted a file: link in your issue, though!
Solving issues in XML is great, but I'd like maths on the Web to be something I don't have to think about by now.
It may well be, I'm not married to it, I just want something that works!
I've been wondering how far just mapping Content MathML semantics to ARIA might take us.
That's Brooklyn fashion for you.
But "JSON-y goodness" just rolls off the tongue! @sciencedotai

It doesn't really matter what the WG thinks about this. We can make it happen either way.
I still have an email from you marked as "needs reply" (sorry!) but I do think it mentioned that?
If it's built and has some implementation support, which in this case is possible, objections from whatever groups won't matter.
I wanna see :-)
Okay, I think we survived taking part in:

@KKjernsmo Hey man, whatever happened to your proposal to add Named Graphs to RDFa?
That ontology is basically a bug list for us. We want to align with schema.org.
Actually, schema.org has a bunch of stuff that’s relevant here, from medical extensions to grants.
Here is the entry point for the medical parts for instance: schema.org/docs/meddocs.h…
Wow, that’s a lot of information that gets generated there! Inferring that just from the TeX is impressive.
This one I couldn’t get to work though, Shift-Enter seems to do nothing.
That thing where you arrow-up twenty times in your shell to replay a five-letter command.
Yeah.

@ivan_herman @manusporny Are there plans for something like buzzword.org.uk/2009/rdfa4/spec in RDFa in the coming future?

Well, that’s all nice but it doesn’t really help when your data is to be enmeshed in HTML… @ivan_herman

We are finding ourselves with a construct we can’t use in JSON-LD because we can’t map it to RDFa. @ivan_herman
Embedding can be done but I don't see how to use that to place RDFa props in a named graph from the JSON-LD island.

To go with the flow you have to know its direction, though. If HTML could be utf8-only, it would. @AlainCouthures
Haha; I bet you never knew you could run that fast.

Oh really? That sounds intriguing. Where are you headed to?
Adding an encoding is a lot easier than removing; if that day comes we can add UTF16. @AlainCouthures
It’s true: there are plenty of cases in which you don’t need jQuery. For instance, any situation in which you’re not manipulating the DOM.

«Ecological Orbits: How Planets Move and Populations Grow», L Ginzburg & M Colyvan. Interesting epistemological take on «ecological forces».
The blurb starts with «A famous ecologist and a philosopher of science team up to…» — it’s, like, a buddy movie about population growth.
Ooooh, must be so soft.
I don’t know; I’ve only held a snake once and it left me the impression of the softest thing I’d ever touched.

Has anyone looked at adding Unicode categories to JS’s regular expressions?
You’re *such* a troll :)

Yes, I’m aware of that, but loading up XRegExp just for \p{Letter} is painful :) @mathias
That’s a most excellent post, but it doesn’t mention categories (e.g. \p{Letter}) at all, sadly.
Just backup everything and restore it all from backup? In me experience it leaves a few holes, but covers a lot of it.

Then since that's an unpleasant move I'll explain why. That's all I did, or at least tried to do.
I don't think it's that here, though. It's mostly that we haven't collectively figured out the guidebook for open projects.
Rules are meant to help, not to be mindlessly applied. This should... be a rule.

Rails sort of had that, too. I’m not a fan, I think the downsides outweigh the gains by quite a fair bit. But YMMV of course.
Then that’s a bug with the system. It’s an essential rule that humans stay in control of human aspects. @AutomatedTester
♥ 1
And that’s great, but the social engineering of it is broken. Similar systems I hacked on for W3C contributions allowed override.
E.g. using a comment, maintainers could provide the missing information. It avoids making rules mindless and hostile.
It could be an interesting idea to talk, indeed :) @transcranial
No matter how successful you can still get stuff wrong.
Moi aussi, ça arrive souvent. Pour un petit changement, pour un gros c'est différent.
I don't think it's a reasonable application of rules, given the change. If it breaks their tooling, that's a bug.
Tooling that enforces/requires rules should be easily overridden because people matter more.
Carrément!
The guidelines are great, it's their application I find issue with. And it's not demonising :-)
I'll blog to explain how I think we can collectively fix this.

I am well aware, and I understand the reasons. My opinion is also that the manner in which they are deployed is buggy.
Dans l'ensemble ça va. Il reste des poches pas top, mais pour ça il faut visiter.
Or through post-commit/PR fix up. Eg if a maintainer comments with "+docs" it's fixed. Tools should enable people.
I actually think it was rude and hostile, and that we need common conventions to avoid such squabbling.

Yeah, I'd have done it had it been less indirect, but the broader issue is agreeing on who's responsibility it...
...is to carry out a change larger than the contribution, that sort of thing.
That's okay if your tools don't suck, though :-)
Yeah, that's the point I'm trying to carry away. Otherwise it's just a shit interaction for everyone.
