    Facebook and Instagram seem to be down. Has anyone thought about just leaving it that way to see what happens?

    Reminder for your friends/fam: many rely on Facebook for communication and FB, IG, and WhatsApp down may make folks susceptible to phishing attacks such as "Your FB has been deleted, click here to restore". They may be more likely to believe this bc Facebook isn't working, etc.

    what are you using to generate the SVGs to plot? Lately I've been using Shapely in Python.
    Aaron Parecki
    I started looking at Processing and p5.js like everyone, but then ended up doing this one in PHP 😂 Not even with an SVG library, just building SVG strings by hand too.

    By not having BGP announcements for your DNS name servers, DNS falls apart = nobody can find you on the internet.

    Same with WhatsApp btw.

    Facebook have basically deplatformed themselves from their own platform.

    Normally I'd send #hugops, but today a gentle reminder that it's always a good day to quit your job if your work supports exploitation of people by a corrupt corporation in search of deceitful profits! 😊

    People constantly suggesting that their way of doing something is the only way, and going all the way to "prove" it.

    I would like to propose that we change the term “artificial intelligence” to “stupid computers”.

    I think Facebook needs to be broken up AND the entire industry has to be severely regulated. And I’m one of the guys that helped create this industry, so I know what the fuck I’m talking about.

    The funny thing about this is that those saved files have a better chance of being around in ten years than the NFTs themselves.

    First plot on my #AxiDraw was successful!

    This is a sha256 hash of my name, each ring represents 4 characters of the hash.

    A hash is a transformation of an arbitrary-sized value into another value of fixed size. Hash functions that are one-way, i.e. cannot be reversed, are the basis of modern cryptography and security on the Internet. Given this image, you wouldn't be able to reverse it to find out the original string, but every time I run the hash on the same string it will output the same value.

    I know that if one day I ever go to space I’m gonna look at all my cameras and think “I’m just gonna bring my phone”.

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.
