    Yay: discovering that @okta has a great article for adding OIDC authentication via nginx auth_request (https://developer.okta.com/blog/2018/08/28/nginx-auth-request)

    Boo: It relies on an early-access feature that requires you to reach out to your account rep to enable. #srelife

    Decided to re-activate my @Flickr Pro.
    New owner @SmugMug has been around for years and is passionate about photos. They’ve responded well to criticisms & suggestions (preserving CC photos). @DonMacAskill did an AMA recently that showed a lot of care and thoughtfulness: https://www.reddit.com/r/photography/comments/a71mh3/hi_my_name_is_don_macaskill_and_im_the_cofounder/

    One example: “We are actively saving accounts for photographers who are no longer with us”.

    Dear @Flickr, here are a few more to save. I lost a good friend last year (flic.kr/cindyli @CindyLi enwp.org/Cindy_Li), another the year before (flic.kr/bmindful @tedr), and another years ago (flic.kr/thebrad). I’m sure there are many more early Flickr users who have since passed away. Please speak-up if you know of any.

    Flickr already has the best API of any photo site, and thus has the best Brid.gy support for IndieWeb sites wanting to syndicate to Flickr, and backfeed responses.

    I have more positive thoughts about @Flickr’s future potential with its new owners, especially with respect to even better IndieWeb integration.  More on that later. For now, see the additional research and links being collected and documented by the IndieWeb Community:

    https://indieweb.org/Flickr

    And if you also decide to upgrade your Flickr account to Pro, there’s a 15% off code (FLICKRPRO15) that’s good until 2019-015.

    @aaronpk would have some thoughts on this
    Aaron Parecki
    Totally depends on the other constraints. Wifi location is probably the best for general purpose location everywhere. Bluetooth/NFC can get you super accuracy but of course requires installation at the venue.

    Mind blown. Just found out about this "font" that takes advantage of subpixel rendering to be absurdly small: http://www.msarnoff.org/millitext/

    (Quotes added since the color information is critical; i.e., it's not simply an outline like typical typefaces.)

    y'ever think about how so many web devs' heads ended up so far up their own asses that firefox had to make a dedicated "just discard all the styling so you can actually read it" button

    why do you use an offline calendar and not some sort of CalDAV-enabled thing?

    Aaron Parecki
    This thing is three feet wide, and is the only way to see the whole year at a glance. There isn't any software that can do that as effectively.

    I do also use a calendar on the computer, but for a different kind of planning.

    worth it! I've had this running at home for over a year, bonus that it also blocks stuff on your phone and other devices on your wifi!

    You using the WebKit web payment api stuff for Apple Pay ? I was looking at it the other day as it also offers google wallet in the same code for chrome users.
    Aaron Parecki
    Keep in mind all it does is collect the credit card info, you still need an actual payment gateway to do something with the card.

    HMU with your #photography workflow. How do you keep your photos straight, especially over a time-span of decades?

    I'm particularly interested in how #indieweb folks approach this.
    Aaron Parecki
    Right now most of my old photos are in Flickr 😭

    I'm working on a new solution where I just store stuff on hard disks so it's easier to back up. I want to find a good organizational layer on top to add tags but haven't found anything I like yet.

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.
