    “I don’t t fit neatly into job descriptions. I never have. I am brilliant, resourceful, and intuitive. I write. I teach. I connect the dots others don’t t see. I can talk to anyone. But none of that fits into a hiring algorithm.”



    Boy, can I relate to that.

    The social web doesn't have 'leaders' either, esp. not self-proclaimed ones. Saying it does is tone-deaf, counter-cultural. Fediverse doesn't need to be led. It needs to be fostered, cared for, nurtured.. all fedizens, together.

    @aaronpk "very little" has the feel of "not much" to me, that makes it sound weird. I would say that "ganz klein" is even smaller than "sehr klein" (very little), even being the smallest. When used in other contexts, e. g. "ganz voll", it would translate as "completely full". "Ganz" takes the role of "completely" as a qualifier for adjectives. So something along the lines of smallest/completely small/utterly small would be a better fit in my opinion.

    @aaronpk
    I think this is more about English than German.
    First of all, I'd also prefer "small" over "little".
    Second "completely small" doesn't really work in English, does it? So "quite small" is what I'd say.
    "ganz" only means "completely" when it's not with another adjective; Das ganze Lied = The whole/complete song. With an adjective it's always "quite". Das ganz lange Lied = The quite long song.

    Thanks to Matthew for reading my post on recent IndieWeb discourse and adding a new section with his responses and notifying me about it via email.

    There are certainly a number of things in Matthew’s response that tempt me to respond, but I’d like to focus on this:

    I am, nevertheless, a little annoyed by the exhortation to “talk with us”. What does it look like I’m doing over here, anyway? Oh, no, it’s not good enough to post one’s opinion on the web. I’m supposed to use one of the IndieWeb’s chats, either IRC, Slack, or Discord. […] I am already talking with you. I’m doing it here, on my own website for all to see, in the best IndieWeb tradition. And you are talking to me if you quote me on your own website or email me.

    I don’t consider my post a reply to Matthew’s post. I do not see his post as an invitation to conversation. I read it as a “take” - an opinion piece intended to make the reader feel a certain way and then close the topic, complete with clickbait headline.

    I shouldn’t have to point out that bloggers-blogging-at-bloggers has a long history of unproductive conversation. Reducing the impact of unproductive conversations is part is why there’s not an IndieWeb mailing list. It’s easy in these formats to go hard on the abstract, and to spend time constructing arguments instead of asking questions.

    That’s not to say that posts can’t inspire change. In the past day or so indieweb.org/discuss has been updated to mention right in the opening sentence that the IRC, web, Slack, and Discord chats are all bridged. Discussions have also kicked up (not for the first time) around making the homepage more welcoming, focusing on principles first, etc.

    Those changes are being decided in the real-time chat, where you can meet and talk with the individuals (all volunteers!) who make up the IndieWeb community. I reckon it beats trying to reverse-engineer that community from a wiki.

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.
