Hi, I'm Aaron, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)
I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.

The elevator guy installed the dumbwaiter call buttons today! It's going to drive me crazy that it's crooked though so I am going to have to fix it.

The new MCP spec just dropped! π
There's too many new things to get into everything, but there are two big changes I am most excited about π
π Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) - a simpler way to manage client registrations, clients describe themselves with a URL they control
π Enterprise-Managed Authorization extension (aka Cross App Access) - eliminate the OAuth redirect and get tokens for an MCP server by requesting them from the enterprise IdP
It's been great working on this with folks like Den Delimarsky, Paul Carleton, David Soria Parra, Nick Cooper, Tyler Leonhardt, and more!
Read more about what these mean for you in my full post

Long day doing an "Intro to OAuth" O'Reilly workshop. The RΓDECaster Video held up great for the whole 5 hours tho.

The hot tub cover finally arrived! I had to screw the little clamps in for the straps, and it felt more than a little terrifying to drill a hole in the wood with it full of water.

They did such a good job with the patio pavers!

Today I hooked up the CT clamps to the main breaker panel, and now I have continuous monitoring of how much power the house is using! It's very cool. I'm going to have my electrician run CTs to each individual circuit next time he's here.

They finally poured the concrete for the back steps and foundation for the shed!

wet concrete

I finally put up the trim for the LED strip on the roof patio. There was this awkward corner to get around that I filled in with epoxy putty, seemed easier than figuring out how to make it work with the trim.
-
They are pouring the last concrete tomorrow so I had to get some photos of the forms before they are filled in!

that's one way to have a cat on your lap

Finally printed the labels for the last patch panels
