#StampOfApproval Thanks, Aaron! We appreciate you! - Samantha

People keep talking about how they're doing things late in their life because they're in their forties. Stop it, you're freaking me out. Also, I don't know about you, but I'm planning on having another good 60 years or so.

Everyone: Can I get a copy of these slides?
Also everyone: Never downloads or looks at the slides ever.

On the plus side, apparently Web 3.0 is no longer the Semantic Web.

Now that we all subscribe to a thousand newsletters, is there an app or service that will push my newsletters into Pocket or some sort of aggregator that's not also the place I interact with important correspondence?

…and you have just opened up a whole new pit of horror for me. Thanks. 😱

Okay, I just got off the phone with a tech recruiter and I have some pretty deep frustrations with how this went on many axes. Tech recruiters, please read this thread - especially if you're in a "diversity & inclusion" team.

Writing 100 lines of code in an hour isn't a useful skill to test for. The best solutions often involve writing only a small amount of code to clue existing, good code together in a useful way. Understanding how stuff works and being able to tie things together is way more useful

I'm at the point of my life where I hoard security keys to give away to anyone I know/meet who needs to lock down their online accounts, and plushies + storybooks as gifts for friends who have children. No regrets.

Also h/t @aaronpk because I'm working through OAuth 2.0 simplified right now and it's refreshingly well-organized as a tour :)

The #IndieWeb wiki-docs are excellent.

Feels like how I wish a lot of api-docs read.

I'd love for a feature that allowed close friends to moderate your feed before it gets to you

It's much less upsetting to see unwarranted rudeness directed at someone else. A close friend would know how to filter the worst of it on your behalf without as strong an emotional hit

This has me missing Camera Camp a little. We should have two a year! A spring and fall edition. What do you think @ijustine? 😜

Excellent explanation by @aaronpk of @okta of why PKCE is important in #OAuth2. I feel like @nbarbettini, the guy on the left asking these questions.

Totally agree, things wouldn’t be the same. Could re-direct some of $1 trillion we spend each year on highway maintenance to transit & other productive uses; eliminate the leading cause of death & injury; address climate change; end oil wars

Yeah things def wouldn’t stay same
