| [14:19:09] | <yoav> | marcosc__: Hey. Wanted to talk to you about the manifest, the fact that it's async and the orientation member |
| [14:19:22] | <yoav> | But in the mean time, wrote up a GH issue :) |
| [14:19:38] | <marcosc> | will take a looksy |
| [14:19:48] | <yoav> | |
| [14:20:13] | <yoav> | marcosc: Awesome, thanks! |
| [14:20:23] | <yoav> | Gotta go now, but be back in 30 |
| [14:24:59] | * Wilto has joined #respimg |
| [14:33:53] | <Wilto> | Whatup; what’ve I missed? |

| [14:56:16] | * gregwhitworth has joined #respimg |
| [14:57:05] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: I think I saw someone say that you will be updating the srcset to trigger downloads when a user resizes the browser. Is this correct? |
| [14:58:30] | * marcosc_ has joined #respimg |
| [14:59:01] | * eeeps has joined #respimg |
| [15:08:56] | <Wilto> | gregwhitworth: Yeah, we’re waiting on another patch to land first. |
| [15:09:23] | <Wilto> | gregwhitworth: cbiesinger__ has been working on it. |
| [15:10:03] | <gregwhitworth> | Ok, so is it all based on viewport not zooming |
| [15:10:26] | <gregwhitworth> | basically it will only trigger when I resize the browser. Not when I control + '+' |
| [15:10:35] | <gregwhitworth> | currently zooming doesn't affect it |
| [15:17:29] | <gregwhitworth> | wilto: forgot to put your handle so it probably isn't alerting you |
| [15:20:24] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: Don't listen to Wilto, he's bad for you :D |
| [15:20:56] | <yoav> | The picture sources are planned to get updated when the viewport changes, and cbiesinger__ is working on that |
| [15:21:22] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: Ok, so viewport only then. How it currently behaves now, it just won't require refresh |
| [15:21:35] | <yoav> | There aren't such plans for srcset at the moment, but there may be in the future |
| [15:21:56] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: Hmmmm, so you're specifically referring to picture sources then |
| [15:21:57] | <yoav> | Yeah, exactly |
| [15:22:33] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: hmmmm, decisions, decisions |
| [15:22:38] | <yoav> | For srcset resources, you could make a case either way |
| [15:22:50] | <yoav> | And it's the UA's decision |
| [15:23:19] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: yeah that's our problem at the moment. It is the UAs decision but devs usually want a similiar behaivor |
| [15:23:38] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: I think it would be good to detail this if possible to one another |
| [15:24:37] | <yoav> | I don't think it'd be bad if UAs are not compatible here, but I'm all for full documentation |
| [15:25:04] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: I understand why they don't have to be and benefits for it (perf, etc) |
| [15:25:06] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: I also have plans to make resource selection (inside srcset) smarter. See |
| [15:25:07] | * nwtn has joined #respimg |
| [15:26:32] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: I do think you should modify the spec, this is a good example, but that's my opinion |
| [15:27:27] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: The current dev advice we give out is "don't assume anything regarding the actual resource that the browser will request inside srcset". Time will tell if devs would listen |
| [15:27:51] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: man that's rough |
| [15:28:20] | <Wilto> | what i do |
| [15:28:55] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: I can understand on mobile possible changing how this works, but on desktop I think we should try to be as consistent and intuitive for the devs |
| [15:29:20] | <gregwhitworth> | my grammar and spelling are off today |
| [15:29:28] | <gregwhitworth> | :) |
| [15:29:32] | <Wilto> | I mean, `srcset`/`sizes` whole deal is “when you don’t need super explicit control over sources.” |
| [15:29:47] | <Wilto> | “Slap some images in here and the browser will take care of it.” |
| [15:30:09] | <Wilto> | `picture`/`source` is for cases that require tight control. |
| [15:30:24] | <yoav> | Yeah |
| [15:30:30] | <gregwhitworth> | Wilto: ok |
| [15:30:47] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: What would you say be a more intuitive way to go? |
| [15:30:53] | <gregwhitworth> | Wilto: that seems somewhat odd to me, but maybe I'm just a type A person and want my x == x |
| [15:31:12] | <Wilto> | The 1x/2x syntax blurs the line a little, but you can generally say “`srcset` when you don’t wanna think about responsive images, `picture` when you do.” |
| [15:31:28] | <Wilto> | gregwhitworth: Oh, don’t get me wrong—same here. |
| [15:31:41] | <Wilto> | Big hero images, art direction, etc. I lean `picture` still. |
| [15:31:43] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: if I say srcset="img1.jpg 500w, img2.jpg 750w, img3.jp 850w" and my viewport is 860, you better grab the 850 |
| [15:32:19] | <gregwhitworth> | yoav: That's speaking as a web dev and what I would expect |
| [15:32:47] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: As someone writing this from a desktop, tethered on a sometimes lousy 3G, I disagree :) |
| [15:33:37] | <Wilto> | Yeah, my cafe wifi is with yoav. |
| [15:33:38] | <yoav> | As a user, I want to be able to tell my browser "just download crappy images now, I don't care" |
| [15:33:48] | <Wilto> | But, there are cases for that explicit control too. |
| [15:34:01] | <gregwhitworth> | I agree with both of you |
| [15:34:28] | <Wilto> | Y’know, gregwhitworth, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say we were discussing some preliminary implementation details here WINK WINK |
| [15:34:36] | <gregwhitworth> | A good example of this though, I'm a dev and say that I want to download 4 versions of jquery, two mootools, etc - do you guys do it? |
| [15:34:38] | <Wilto> | NUDGE NUDGE; ADDITIONAL WINKING |
| [15:34:46] | <gregwhitworth> | Just curious |
| [15:34:49] | <Wilto> | aw |
| [15:35:12] | <gregwhitworth> | Even if network constraints are known |
| [15:35:34] | <Wilto> | I mean, we’re on weird turf here, comparitively. |
| [15:35:44] | <Wilto> | Because we *have* to assume the experience will suffer if we omit a script. |
| [15:35:47] | <Wilto> | Something will likely break. |
| [15:36:15] | <Wilto> | Big vs. small images on big vs. small screens, most options give us no perceptable difference, as a user. Just more damage to a data plan. |
| [15:36:48] | <Wilto> | We’re onto weird new turf with these stretchy images of ours. |
| [15:37:15] | <Wilto> | Which is why both cases need to be covered: the explicit heuristics case, and the “look, just figure it out for me” case. |
| [15:37:28] | <Wilto> | I mean, I’m pumped to see where things go with the new netinfo API for the sake of these. |
| [15:37:58] | <Wilto> | I want that “opt me out of high res images” toggle in the worst way. Again, see: this wifi connection. |
| [15:38:06] | <gregwhitworth> | Ok, so Blink is treating srcset as "grab me the best picture you think" and then using <picture> with sources as the art direction piece that you WILL adhere to. |
| [15:38:19] | <Wilto> | Yep. `picture` is as strict as things get on the web. |
| [15:38:29] | <Wilto> | I mean, there’s some MUSTs in there, I think. |
| [15:39:37] | <yoav> | gregwhitworth: Yeah, picture is the "download what the web dev is saying" case, and srcset is the "download what's best for the user" case |
| [15:39:44] | <gregwhitworth> | ok |
| [15:39:46] | <gregwhitworth> | good to know |
| [15:39:54] | <gregwhitworth> | Thanks for all of the help guys |
| [15:40:13] | <Wilto> | Anytime, dude. |
| [15:40:27] | <Wilto> | We’ve made a weird little thing, here. Happy to help make sense of it. |
| [15:40:27] | <yoav> | Currently srcset doesn't have that much smarts in it, but I plan on getting some smarts in there soon |
| [15:42:51] | * newtron_ has joined #respimg |
| [15:45:52] | <Wilto> | `srcset` if you’re lazy, `picture` if you’re crazy™ |
| [15:54:39] | <JonathanNeal> | I love srcset. |

| [16:42:27] | <gregwhitworth> | is anyone from apple in here? |
| [16:47:18] | <cbiesinger__> | yoav: did you see my conversation with elliott last night? |
| [16:47:25] | <TabAtkins> | gregwhitworth: It's not "Blink is doing this", it's "that's what the spec actually says to do". |
| [16:47:54] | <TabAtkins> | You *must* pick the first <source> with a matching MQ, and reevaluate that choice when the MQ truthiness changes. |
| [16:49:02] | <TabAtkins> | Once you've chosen a <source> (or the <img>), it's entirely browser-choice which source to pick, based on whatever criteria they find relevant. "Screen resolution" is definitely intended to be one, but "bandwidth situation" is also one we anticipate browsers using. |
| [16:53:36] | <gregwhitworth> | TabAtkins: Blink currently doesn't update when the truthiness changes |
| [16:53:52] | <TabAtkins> | And that's a bug. |
| [16:53:55] | <gregwhitworth> | TabAtkins: Specifically in regard to srcset |
| [16:54:02] | <TabAtkins> | Wait wait wait. |
| [16:54:27] | <TabAtkins> | Be clearer, please? MQ truthiness and srcset are quite unrelated - those are the two distinct directions I just talked about. |
| [16:55:32] | <gregwhitworth> | TabAtkins: I figured we were talking about two different things |
| [16:56:07] | <gregwhitworth> | TabAtkins: I am merely referring to if I have the following: srcset=" 1800w, 1200w" |
| [16:56:19] | <TabAtkins> | Okay, yeah, that has nothing to do with MQs |
| [16:57:18] | <TabAtkins> | You might be one of those unfortunates who has mixed up "old HTML srcset" with "new <picture> srcset", and have gotten confused about what the XXXw syntax means. |
| [16:58:09] | <TabAtkins> | XXXw is just an alternate way of writing NNNx, when the precise x value varies because the image's size is variable. |
| [16:58:36] | <TabAtkins> | You just give up, tell the browser how big the source is (the w number) and how big the image will be (the sizes attribute) and let it figure things out. |
| [16:59:08] | <gregwhitworth> | hmmmm, it definately still feels dimension based not pixel density based |
| [16:59:24] | <gregwhitworth> | And yes I'm looking at the W3C srcset spec |
| [16:59:29] | <TabAtkins> | I suggest rereading the spec for it, then, because it's nothing to do with the size of the viewport. ^_^ |
| [16:59:35] | <TabAtkins> | Why. Why are you looking there. |
| [16:59:48] | <gregwhitworth> | You're being sarcastic right |
| [16:59:56] | <TabAtkins> | The W3C spec hasn't updated to contain the <picture> information, I think? |
| [17:00:17] | <TabAtkins> | Just read picture.responsiveimages.org |
| [17:01:02] | <TabAtkins> | Until we're sure that the W3C copy contains the correct text from the WHATWG copy, the original source is fine. |
| [17:02:33] | <TabAtkins> | bbiab - have to do an interview |
| [17:02:33] | <gregwhitworth> | ok |
| [17:02:53] | <gregwhitworth> | ok |
| [17:06:26] | <Wilto> | Man, that URL is KILLING me. |
| [17:07:21] | <Wilto> | gregwhitworth: That doc is left over from the now-ancient WHATWG `srcset` proposal and REFUSES TO DIE. |
| [17:08:02] | <Wilto> | I knew we should have made the attribute `srcset-v2` in the `picture` spec. |

| [18:16:42] | <TimWright> | HA |
| [18:37:41] | <gregwhitworth> | Wilto: Ok, so we should be using srcset from the picture spec then as the definitive guide |
| [18:39:19] | <gregwhitworth> | Wilto: It says it was updated June of this year |
| [18:45:08] | <Wilto> | Yeah, not sure what the deal is there, gregwhitworth. |
| [18:45:26] | <Wilto> | Definitely defunct. |
| [18:48:00] | <gregwhitworth> | ugh |
| [18:48:07] | <Wilto> | *Agreed*. |
| [18:48:10] | <gregwhitworth> | We really need to figure this out |
| [18:48:21] | <Wilto> | But it shouldn’t be around much longer with things merged into the WHATWG spec. |
