    This is what it’s like to get texts from my fourteen year old while driving.

    Yay: discovering that @okta has a great article for adding OIDC authentication via nginx auth_request (https://developer.okta.com/blog/2018/08/28/nginx-auth-request)

    Boo: It relies on an early-access feature that requires you to reach out to your account rep to enable. #srelife

    Decided to re-activate my @Flickr Pro.
    New owner @SmugMug has been around for years and is passionate about photos. They’ve responded well to criticisms & suggestions (preserving CC photos). @DonMacAskill did an AMA recently that showed a lot of care and thoughtfulness: https://www.reddit.com/r/photography/comments/a71mh3/hi_my_name_is_don_macaskill_and_im_the_cofounder/

    One example: “We are actively saving accounts for photographers who are no longer with us”.

    Dear @Flickr, here are a few more to save. I lost a good friend last year (flic.kr/cindyli @CindyLi enwp.org/Cindy_Li), another the year before (flic.kr/bmindful @tedr), and another years ago (flic.kr/thebrad). I’m sure there are many more early Flickr users who have since passed away. Please speak-up if you know of any.

    Flickr already has the best API of any photo site, and thus has the best Brid.gy support for IndieWeb sites wanting to syndicate to Flickr, and backfeed responses.

    I have more positive thoughts about @Flickr’s future potential with its new owners, especially with respect to even better IndieWeb integration.  More on that later. For now, see the additional research and links being collected and documented by the IndieWeb Community:

    https://indieweb.org/Flickr

    And if you also decide to upgrade your Flickr account to Pro, there’s a 15% off code (FLICKRPRO15) that’s good until 2019-015.

    Mind blown. Just found out about this "font" that takes advantage of subpixel rendering to be absurdly small: http://www.msarnoff.org/millitext/

    (Quotes added since the color information is critical; i.e., it's not simply an outline like typical typefaces.)

    Good write-up about the recent confusion and discussions around OAuth implicit flow (and what we think about it).

    It’s in the App Store if you have faith that version hasn’t been tampered with.

    My voicemail greeting used to say "Hi, this is Gretchen, I don't check voicemail so please text me instead." The only reason it doesn't anymore is I switched providers and haven't even set up my voicemail anymore.

    YES I realize I have 126 unlistened to voicemails.
    1) I am a millennial. I don’t listen to voicemail.
    2) My # has been leaked so I get a lot of spam/otherwise unwanted calls.
    3) I read 98% of my voicemail transcripts.
    4) Friends don’t call 31 year old friends.

    #microformats2 parsing spec updated: http://microformats.org/wiki/index.php?title=microformats2-parsing&diff=66969&oldid=66967
    * always parse alt with img src for accessibility info by default https://github.com/microformats/microformats2-parsing/issues/2
    Implemented in current version of:
    * mf2py - behind flag, in use by Brid.gy
    This is a pretty big change, likely to require updates to parsers and calling code, however, the better access to accessibility info on img elements by default is a big improvement for all.

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.
