Is there a trick to reading the @FiveThirtyEight feed without it reloading back to the top of the page after each paragraph and a half?
Note that the Clinton-Sanders difference keeps dropping with every reporting increase. Quite the nail-biter.
Clinton at 50% and dropping, the suspense is killing me. 0.7% ahead of Sanders.

I think all forms of conneg are bad, really :)
Oh, linking to two different things is not conneg — it’s just linking.
Conneg is whenever the protocol does it for you.
Oh, you mean multiple choices. Gotcha. That still suffers from the fact that it tends to hide data.
Unless you expect to trigger and receive a 300, you won’t ever see the alternatives. It’s also more complex on the server.
I think that’s really a stretch :) None of that happens at the protocol level! @mnot
@danbri Do you know if your colleagues from Scholar might consider relying on some better metadata practices than scholar.google.com/intl/en/schola… ?

I would consider them problematic: scienceai.github.io/data-citations… #DCIPBoston
Absolutely, but if you have the data, what is the use case? Don’t you risk bugs for no extra value?
We can’t yet back that up with data, but experience in other domains certainly suggests so strongly.
Well, we haven’t published enough articles with schema.org, so we don’t have stats basically :) @danbri
Oh sure, but that’s a hard problem. Bidirectional links have been a problem since at least SGML :)
I’ve always been ahead of the style curve nytimes.com/2016/02/04/fas…
So basically that would place RI under «active content», right? @rdeltour

You can also do that with links!
But in your scheme the user has to know a fair bit more than the url, no? Do you send a 300 for discovery?
And broken crawlers. So it's not discoverable, not a big deal but it annoys me :-)
You put all those headers on every response?!
You send html on no match, right? (I'd test but I'm mobile.) And html has links to alternates?
Right, so you're really using conneg as protocolar sugar. No problem with that since the system is resilient to its absence.
I'd use HTML for that, but you probably would've guessed as much :-)
Or even better, just say «conneg», it’s a great word that I’m told means pretty much anything.

I have read the thread, and I make no claims as to whether you like conneg or not.
All I say is that I have seen nothing to convince me there is value in the all-encompassing, non-colloquial meaning of conneg.

Devil’s advocate: getting out of the way can be hard when people just dump Word/PDF at you. @mrgunn @Protohedgehog @McDawg @tpoi

Okay, but that’s not far from saying that the world would be great if we all were nice… @mrgunn @Protohedgehog @McDawg @tpoi

Really good article, thanks. Does aria-level on th work in any way?
It's relatively common for scientific content to represent multidimensional data with progressively indented...
...row headers. It seems natural to convert that to aria-level (which we do), hence the question.
Gah, that sucks :-(

Disons que l’impression manifestement couleur et plastifiée peut orienter le choix :)
Yes, that’s what I meant (and what we do). But the visual result we have is on th (and the meaning derives). @powermapper
Oh, absolutely in the browser, but nothing to do with ReSpec. I am no longer a maintainer.
Thanks, I was planning to use the former at least (hence the idea to port to JS, since it’s XSLT 2).
Re the latter, is it very different from MSFT’s or did you mostly make it more XSLT2-happy?
I do, but it covers neither of those conversions.
Hahaha, and then there will be XSLT 4, which is basically JS :)
Sweet, ta.
More prosaically, I think that a JS lib that did just the core template/apply algorithm would be useful.
It could take arbitrary pattern matching and work with arbitrary output. XML is trivial with JSX.
Precisely!

@dalapeyre Is there a reason why JATS does not have Ruby elements rtc and rp?
So you kind of hoped I was kidding. See github.com/scienceai/deja… :)
It’s used as a JATS -> HTML «style sheet» in github.com/scienceai/deja…. 💖💞💓
I know, right? The hat! And they had a big bus and all.
Well of course, it's a 1h hack. Yet it's already more readily usable in Node and the browser.
Also, that's not entirely true. The matcher is an arbitrary JS function, as is the template. JATS is only using a tiny bit.
Finally, it wasn't done to impress but because I need that transformation working now :-)
There's nothing global about Matcher. It could use XPath, it would be trivial to add given an XPath lib supporting patterns.
It could also support CSS, or something domain-specific. Walker is independent of it.
I must be explaining it wrong because that’s just not the case. I’ll release and document (but not this week).
Right, but we could use node.match(css) as a different matcher — that would work today. Priorities, modes: sure, lots!
Yup. The advantage: it actually runs in the environments that matter to me. @gimsieke
Yeah. It would be a bigger win if I could just use XSLT, but I’m done waiting… @gimsieke
