has anyone done “Demo this in sandstorm” buttons for use in github READMEs?
<mnutt>
the buttons themselves, I mean. I can make my own, wondering if there are some nice-looking ones already out there

Hey, I was wondering what happens to already installed grains of apps that you update? For example, if the wekan app updates, do my grains get that update automatically as well?
<simonv3>
I seem to remember a notification, but I wasn’t clear

You get a notification, and if you say "apply updates" all your grains will be switched to the latest version.

I just spent what feels like the whole day trying to add two numbers.

Sometimes I am not very good at Meteor, and other times I just wish it would yell at me more, like ocaml or C++ or something.

welcome to dynamic typing!
<asheesh>
You'd think I'd be used to it; I used to write a lot of Python.
<asheesh>
But in Python at least I have pyflakes.

how do these people manage large codebases? how do they refactor? how do they sleep at night without the safety of the type checker?

Found it via MIT CSAIL highlighting Tim Berners-Lee's group working on it getting a 1mil grant.
<jadewang>
that post at the top of HN makes me want to write a blog post titled "43 self-hosted alternatives to popular cloud services"
<jadewang>
@eternaleye, I'm trying to figure out what solid is, but am finding it hard to find a description
<jadewang>
but maybe I'm just tired and getting sleepy
<eternaleye>
jadewang: My impression is that it's an attempt at a common RDF/linked data federation system meant to act as an underpinning layer for social stuff
<eternaleye>
jadewang: i.e. a pumbing layer for the Diaspora's of tomorrow.
<eternaleye>
*plumbing
<jadewang>
oh interesting
<eternaleye>
Running it inside Sandstorm, therefore, seems like a pretty neat matchup
<jadewang>
yeah!
<jadewang>
I think I remember @kenton and @jparyani saying there were a couple core platform features that needed to be implemented to make diaspora et al. work on sandstorm
<jadewang>
maybe this could make it easier

can someone give a quick test ride to the new version of Dillinger with collab editing?

I do get a 14-byte index.html response, which seems to contain <html></html>

I think the http/https thing will be a red herring, but I don't mind you doing the switch!

(asheesh any idea about what I just posted re updates?)
<simonv3>
Uploading a newer version of an spk doesn’t seem to update existing grains, so I’m wondering if I’m doing something wrong
<asheesh>
Hey simonv3 ! Sorry missed that. zarvox knows more about that than I do; I wonder if he knows this answer.
<simonv3>
cool, thanks for pointing me along :)
jadewang has joined #sandstorm
<asheesh>
simonv3: I propose that if you don't see zarvox in the next five-ish minutes, you file a bug with clear steps-to-reproduce and we can close it either with a docs fix, or with a code change. Must AFK for a meeting in a few min, which will result in high latency on IRC. (-:
<simonv3>
hah, okay, I’ll write it all down, any suggested place to report bugs?
<asheesh>
gihub.com/sandstorm-io/sandstorm/issues
<zarvox>
simonv3: hmmm, uploading a new version of an SPK doesn't update existing grains yet, but when you go to the app details page, there should be a purple button to upgrade them.
<simonv3>
zarvox: hey! Yeah, that button appeared, but it doesn’t seem to actually upgrade the app
<gpots>
Still not having any luck with Davros 'Web Publishing' ... do I need to include .htaccess as well. Prompted with "Add index.html to the top level to set up your site. All files in the shared directory will be publicly accessible." but that doesn't appear to be doing the trick
<zarvox>
simonv3: just to be clear: clicking the button makes the button disappear from the page?
<zarvox>
and then restarting the grain (might have to hit the Restart button on the topbar) still runs the old package?
<simonv3>
zarvox: yep. but I’ll go through the process again and capture some screenshots to confirm that I’m talking about the same button
<simonv3>
(also, this is on oasis, not on a personal instance)
<simonv3>
zarvox: mind if I PM you some details?
<gpots>
good lord ... figured out the web publish issue ... all good

I am exploring RocketChat for use by students (working with gpots :-)), and was wondering if it is possible to have anon access for this or if students require a sandstorm login?
mnutt has joined #sandstorm
<ckocagil>
paulhibbitts: anon access is possible with sandstorm, but rocketchat is bugged in that case
<paulhibbitts>
Ah ha, thanks ckocagil. Any pointers to where I could learn more/expected fix timeframe?
<ckocagil>
paulhibbitts: I don't know, but someone here could perhaps relay it to the rocketchat team
<paulhibbitts>
Ok, I will keep my eyes open for any news etc. Thank you.

Thanks the for tip asheesh! I think gpots is also exploring options - RocketChat App looks very promising.
