  • Boiling point: redesigning the kettle for the 21st century (www.theguardian.com)
    There is the induction base on the bottom. It sends out this electromagnetic field, a field of energy that only heats ferrous materials – meaning only things that contain iron, for example steel. It sends out this electromagnetic field and the rod is the only part that gets heated up because it is iron based.

  • Why Is My Smart Home So Fucking Dumb? (gizmodo.com)
    It amazing how much you miss a simple old light switch when you have to pull out your phone, fumble through a poorly designed app, and then wait half a second for the light to turn on.

  • IRC as a Hiring Filter (www.jasonwhaley.com)
    viewing a candidate's behavior and displayed competence on IRC networks is more useful in ways that that Github and StackExchange possibly can't provide.

  • Next up in interaction - Slashie (www.slashie.org)
    If a tiny winch was stuck at the wrist with a super thin wire leading up to the tip of our index finger, it could simulate a surface by straining and retracting the wire at just the right time and thus giving haptic feedback in mid air. This would create an “air tap“, simulating a surface that doesn’t exist.

  • How to embed and subset your own webfonts | the notepad (www.thenotepad.org)
    However, I’m a big fan of not relying on third-party sites and services if you can avoid it. What happens in five years when those sites are no longer available? It’s best to know how to do get the same result yourself using basic tools, and the result will often get you better performance.

  • RSSCloud Vs. PubSubHubbub: Why The Fat Pings Win | TechCrunch (techcrunch.com)
    With all of the debate lately between RSSCloud versus PubSubHubbub, we wanted to hear from a developer who could actually tell us which one might be better and why. The following guest post is written by Josh Fraser, the co-founder of EventVue, who is an active contributor to PubSubHubbub in his free time.  He has contributed several client libraries for PubSubHubbub including a WordPress plugin. Guess which side of the debate he falls on.

  • rssCloud meetup at UC Berkeley, Sept 9 (Scripting News) (scripting.com)
    There will be free wifi, but if it's like the NYC meetup you won't need it. This is a complex and interesting topic that seems to hold people's attention. But it's California and you never know, so bring your laptop, just in case.

  • It’s Kind of Cheesy Being Green (medium.com)
    A few months ago my friend Edd Dumbill shared a discovery. He pointed out that if you search Twitter for the words “green bubbles” you’ll find very consistent results. People hate green bubbles.

  • Avoiding The Uncanny Valley of User Interface (blog.codinghorror.com)
    one of the great strengths of web applications is that they aren't bound by the crusty old conventions of desktop applications. They're free to do things differently -- and hopefully better. Web applications should play to their strengths, instead of attempting to clone desktop applications.

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.
