Hi, I'm Aaron, co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and am the editor of several W3C specifications. I help people learn about video production and livestreaming and dabble in product design.
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.

at what point do the emails and gmail labels from jobs and projects 10+ years ago stop being relevant and should I delete them?

It's here! I designed these stands to make it easier to use the YoloBox on a desk and to give you ways to attach accessories like wireless mics or HDMI receivers!
The new PK1 stand for YoloBox and YoloBox Pro are available for preorders, shipping starting November 1! Available in both red and black for both YoloBox models!
Visit https://pk1.tv/pk1-yolobox-stand/ for links to purchase!

I bought the cheapest M1 Macbook Air back in June ($999/8gb/256gb) expecting to want to upgrade to whatever Pro was launched this fall, but tbh I've been super impressed at how powerful it is, even for video editing, and I don't really feel like I need to upgrade now π€·

So let me get this straight.
1: you put SSNs in plaintext on a web page
2: you get mad that someone clicked "view source"
3: your actual Highway Patrol patrols the information superhighway?

I'm running a giveaway with @comica_audio for the new VDLive10 USB microphone!
ποΈ I demoed this microphone on my most recent livestream. It's a super cute dual capsule microphone, and has one special trick up its sleeve! The wireless mic transmitters are actually bidirectional, which means you can use it with Zoom! If you plug in headphones into the transmitter, you will both send your audio into Zoom, as well as hear the audio from the Zoom call! I was super surprised that this worked so well.
The receiver connects via USB-C and works great with an iPad for recording on the go or using with video conferencing apps like Zoom!
π Check out this link for how to enter the giveaway! It runs until I announce the winners on my livestream on October 25th!
Thanks to Comica for sending me this mic to review and for sponsoring the giveaway!

This 100% matches my feelings about programming, which might explain why I continue to stick with PHP as my language of choice https://twitter.com/woketopus/status/1447150924846313475

At the end of the day, OAuth is just a way to communicate between services and users, and as such it's easy to grasp and non-controversial.
OAuth solved a universal problem β signing into a web site β and, in doing so, created a new problem: how does a site know it's really you? -
I like giving talks, but I hate writing talk abstracts! How do I fix this?

Join me and @vibronet tomorrow for another OAuth Happy Hour! This week seems like a good week to talk about what happens when "Sign In with Facebook" is down.

First plot on my #AxiDraw was successful!
This is a sha256 hash of my name, each ring represents 4 characters of the hash.
A hash is a transformation of an arbitrary-sized value into another value of fixed size. Hash functions that are one-way, i.e. cannot be reversed, are the basis of modern cryptography and security on the Internet. Given this image, you wouldn't be able to reverse it to find out the original string, but every time I run the hash on the same string it will output the same value.

My first attempt at computational line art!
This image is a representation of a sha256 hash of an input string, my name. Each ring represents 4 characters of the hash, and is the binary representation of the character's ascii value.

The next step is to load this into my #AxiDraw and plot it on some actual paper!
