    To those that have followed me in recent weeks thanks to my new computers for creatives based content.

    If you think you've joined a sane community where I will stay loyal to one brand or even piece of equipment for longer than two weeks.

    ....you better buckle up.

    "The email address however, should only be toggled between the user’s real address or the generated proxy address."

    No, a user can have multiple "real addresses" in Apple world.

    That's true, I noticed I have multiple me.com addresses on my account when I was making the screenshots and forgot to update this text to match. Still, the point is the same.

    .@YouTube needs to allow creators to ban specific advertisers and I will go to the mat for that. I have tried my hardest to ban all political advertisements and I fail and fail and fail. Advertisers can pick creators, but creators can't pick advertisers, and that's fucked.

  • Vegan Banana-Apple Bread

    Ingredients

    • 1 3/4 cup white flour
    • 2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon/nutmeg/cloves)
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 2 large ripe bananas
    • 1 apple, cut into 1-2 inch pieces
    • 1/2 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (almond or soy)
    • 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses
    • 2 tbsp canola oil
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • optional chopped nuts

    Instructions

    Whisk all the dry ingredients and spices in a large bowl.

    In a blender, add all the wet ingredients and the apple and banana. Blend until smooth.

    If you're adding nuts, chop them up using a food processor.

    Mix everything together in the large bowl.

    Drop the batter into a loaf pan, muffin pan, or donut pan.

    Bake for 40 minutes at 375 degrees. Reduce heat to 350 and bake for 10-15 more minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. It's better to over-bake than under-bake this.

    Cool completely before slicing.

    Note: if you don't have baking powder, you can make your own by mixing 1 tsp lemon juice and 1/4 tsp baking soda in a small bowl first. Don't add this to the blender, mix it in when adding everything to the large bowl.

    I wrote an in-depth explanation of the "Sign In with Apple" Zero-Day that was revealed by a security researcher this weekend.

    The problem had nothing to do with OAuth or JWT, and you might be surprised at how simple the bug actually was.

    If you run a community Twitter account, this is a good time to:

    1) Make sure you 100% know everyone who has access to it
    2) Enable two-factor authentication

    You do *not* want to be in the position of having to explain that your account has been taken over by racists

    the data is stored for all time. it's sold to parties who are never disclosed. you will never get the data back and never learn who has access to it. you will never get to "undo" the tracking.

    so some laws need to change around all that, i think.

    note: we've deleted the data

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, 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.
