    this is a brainlet post, but also a wise one. fediverse shouldn't be held back by these kinds of research problems. i don't think its categorically impossible to build usable WoT or cryptographic social networks, but you actually don't need these things to make fedi work and/or succeed.

    which is the real problem with w3c people trying to write protocols like AP. sometimes a less galaxy brain solution is the right one because its more important to have practically useful tools than the perfectly distributed whatever that people are daydreaming about

    Went to the Apple store to check out iPads and see it I want one. I think they are too big for me. If I’m going to carry one around, I might as well take my laptop instead because it’s not that much more bulk or weight. I’ll get an iPad mini if they update it.

    I am so waiting for a new iPad mini! That is my favorite size and I’m so sad they haven’t been updated in ages!

    Actually, this week’s Twitter drama made me appreciate my blog more.

    The fediverse (and any network) is fragile until there are:
    - multiple implementations
    - using different raw materials
    - controlled by diverse people
    - on multiple continents

    You’re not going to believe it, but I can’t reply to the Wordpress post from my reader because the mf2 HTML feed doesn’t have a URL property to tell me the URL of the post from your home page feed.

    The lack of the <base> element in the parsed result, as well as the fact that some parsers already do this, make me lean towards adding it to the spec as well.

  • I don’t miss Twitter and I definitely don’t miss Facebook. However, I did miss most of the conversations yesterday on my micro.blog feed because I was traveling. It didn’t take long for that to become important to me.

    As a non-techy person, I need yall to understand: just because you *hope* your technology won't be used for harassment, spam, and abuse doesn't mean assholes won't find a way. You need reporting tools. You need to safeguard for your users.

    Get it through your thick fucking skulls already.

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.
