  • Random Thoughts: Toasting Marshmallows Around the IndieWebCamp Fire (blog.philcorbett.net)
    If you've already got a personal site it is extremely easy to get started. I set up my site with the most basic features in about 10 minutes and it would have been quicker if I didn't want to take a Photoshop break in the middle of it all to make a new picture for my new social profile.

  • After nearly a decade of events, Mobile Portland is hanging up (siliconflorist.com)

  • Main is usually a function. So then when is it not? (jroweboy.github.io)
    We joked with him about how he needs to make a program that works, but the grading TAs wouldn’t be able to figure out how it works. So that is the requirement, to make a functioning program that completes an assignment while obfuscating it such that the graders think that it shouldn’t work.

  • New amazing metal is so hydrophobic it makes water bounce like magic (sploid.gizmodo.com)
    Instead of using chemical coatings they used lasers to etch a nanostructure on the metal itself. It will not wear off, like current less effective methods.

    The first course of business was to regain control of the server. Every service on the machine was unresponsive, including SSH. The only thing to do was perform a remote restart and wait for things to come back online.

  • We Like IndieWeb Software (www.kevinmarks.com)
    With indieweb we are trying a different approach by working through our own wishlists, reusing common components, and making sure we interoperate along the way. This gives us a composable set of tools that do plug together - the toolkit Anil both is and isn't asking for.

  • I like blogging software. - Anil Dash (dashes.com)
    but I suspect the hardest part is the client app for readers, which works in a way analogous to an RSS reader or email client, but would have to support a new format and would be optimized for clean reading and subsequent discovery, rather than the three-pane model which has dominated those apps for the last decade or two

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.
