    What a good question!

    I don't know if I *need* anything as old as 10 years, but I nevertheless keep backups of all old accounts. My preferred tool these days is "offlineimap" which makes it easy to keep email on file.

    That's a good idea, I'm going to give that a try

    Predicting the future is hard to do. Obsessing over the details of building it is what matters.

    @aaronpk hey, is there a spec for the format of an Okta client secret? A customer wants to know how to store them. Are they guaranteed 40 characters of alphanumeric ASCII?

    Aaron Parecki
    There is actually! It's between 10-100 chars

    Thoughts on Best VPN and why?
    Aaron Parecki
    The best VPN is the one I run from my house 😊

    But for real it totally depends on what your goal of using the VPN is. I use it to access my studio gear remotely, and when I'm on sketchy public WiFi

    Every proof of stake coin is simply a decentralized Ponzi scheme, a get-rich-quick scheme obfuscated with technobabble that redistributes money from suckers to insiders to perpetuate some libertarian monetarist fantasy.

    They should all be illegal.

    Recently I turned a YouTube video with 100k views in the first day (poor performer) to 3m+ views within a week

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.
