    Recently I turned a YouTube video with 100k views in the first day (poor performer) to 3m+ views within a week

    Only thing we changed? The thumbnail.

    Here are some tips for making clickable thumbnails πŸ‘‡πŸ§

    Every proof of stake coin is simply a decentralized Ponzi scheme, a get-rich-quick scheme obfuscated with technobabble that redistributes money from suckers to insiders to perpetuate some libertarian monetarist fantasy.

    They should all be illegal.

    Thoughts on Best VPN and why?
    Aaron Parecki
    The best VPN is the one I run from my house 😊

    But for real it totally depends on what your goal of using the VPN is. I use it to access my studio gear remotely, and when I'm on sketchy public WiFi

    @aaronpk hey, is there a spec for the format of an Okta client secret? A customer wants to know how to store them. Are they guaranteed 40 characters of alphanumeric ASCII?

    Aaron Parecki
    There is actually! It's between 10-100 chars

    What a good question!

    I don't know if I *need* anything as old as 10 years, but I nevertheless keep backups of all old accounts. My preferred tool these days is "offlineimap" which makes it easy to keep email on file.

    The number of transistors in the original ARM1 chip is small enough that you can simulate the chip in your browser and see the individual transistors operating as it executes instructions. Try it out! http://www.visual6502.org/sim/varm/armgl.html

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.
