See, now, I read that as OAuth, which is the no.1 most powerful sign that I have been working in this industry too long I have yet experienced.

heck I can't even type Oath without my fingers typing out OAuth instead

I *worked* at Oath and I *constantly* read it as OAuth.

There was someone from Oath at a recent OAuth working group meeting which wasn't confusing at all

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

Can you clarify which early-access feature that is? I didn't think this required anything special, I tested it with my developer account that has no special privileges.

Specifically Overland. Will probably write my own server component in Python, but the iOS side being done is handy.

Awesome. I'll gladly link to your Python server component from Overland's page if you publish the source code somewhere!

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

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.)

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

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.
