    hm I don't see any currently failed checkins. Next time it happens, don't re-try it, and I can check the logs.

    honestly robotic cranes stacking and unstacking useless concrete weights for all eternity is the surreal dieselpunk energy storage solution earth deserves https://qz.com/1355672/stacking-concrete-blocks-is-a-surprisingly-efficient-way-to-store-energy/

    That’s strange. Next time that happens let me know and I can see if there is a particular checkin that is causing the error.

    Me: Federation is a bad model.
    People: You're against decentralization! Fascist!
    Me: No, I want *more* decentralization, more equal trust distribution.
    People: " If ideal social power were perfect equality, we'd be ants."

    Every time I visit Aaron Parecki’s website, I come back with some inspiration - understand why & how he is implementing the things the way he is. There are many design decisions he’s handled perfectly.

    But every time I visit his “Articles” page, I am bewildered with one decision he has made there. He loads a list of posts, fine. But then follows it with complete contents of 20 recent articles. Given that his articles are heavy on images, that’s more than 25 MB of response. Not ideal, I think.

    I keep struggling with that page, and blog posts in general.

    Right now, any time a post appears in a list, there isn't special handling for it, so these blog posts appear the same whether they are on the "articles" page or whether a single one appears in a tag page or my home page. I *think* I'm happy with that decision for most places on my site, but you're right that it's a bit much having 20 of them in a row.

    If I was better about always including a featured image and always writing a summary, I would definitely switch to a sort of "card" view on this page, but I haven't figured out what to do when a post has no image or summary, since just the title isn't quite enough.

    @aaronpk it was. IRCv3.2 METADATA started as resistance to that crowd.

    they had some good ideas. at the least, SecuShare is worth looking at, as it's the latest iteration of their ideas

    everytime people talk about cryptographic petnames I just go back in time to the Semantic IRC, PSYC, SecuShare crowd

    the one key thing that crowd always misses is that we are building this stuff for normal people to use. normal people don't care about any of this. they get user@domain and user.domain.tld subdomains.

    people don't want to tell the difference between

    - Alyssa (0x12345678)
    - Alyssa (0x87654321)

    and they aren't going to go to the trouble to build a trust graph

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.
