    If someone has said something stupid enough to make me want to explain that to them, I block them, because the chance that this person will ever say something I want to hear is... not large.

    But, maybe some day Mr. Firstname Bunchanumbers dot Eth and I woulda been pals. My loss!

    Web3 is people trying to reboot the ICO bubble. So that they can run the same scams on the next batch of suckers.

    recipe websites were the bellwether of the last web trends: heavily used microformats, briefly had a flickr-like social network (cookpad), the clearest usecase for google's "rich results", and now a trashfire of seo hacking

    Remember that Douglas Adams bit where people decided leaves were currency so they burned down trees to create scarcity so the value of leaves went up? Thats NFTs.

    @cwebber Someone had deposited $500k into their Simple account. And the transactions table's amount column was a Postgres integer, which is 32-bit signed. We only stored positive numbers, so the max value for a single transaction's amount was 2147483647. But because of centicents, that worked out to $214,748.3647.

    Oops.

    As a software developer, you may be called upon to perform some of these tasks in your career.

    How well a CS degree prepares you for these tasks (and whether it even should prepare you for these) is left as an exercise to the reader.

    The web is amazing: you can build something of value for billions of people, leverage endless distribution channels, architecture options, open source and protocols, infinitely scalable infra, and everything gets cheaper and faster every day.

    You either plan now or spend a decade trying to retrofit subpar solutions. The world has been asking for a more regulated internet, with more transparency and accountability. Presently, web3 makes all of those things as difficult as possible right from the get go. 3/5

    Web 2.0 showed us our worst social issues are exacerbated by building tech first and asking questions later. web3 plants seeds for environmental disaster, artificial scarcity, and general disregard for bad actors. On the internet there’s no such thing as “future problems.”2/5

    …the total outcome of NATs is to increase the available address capacity in IPv4 from 4 billion endpoints (232) to some 1,000 trillion endpoints (250). …the usable address capacity in IPv6 is somewhere between 49 bits and 58 bits. This conclusion points to the observation that the overall carrying capacity of IPv6 is not all that different from that of a dense IPv4 deployment making highly efficient use of NATs.

    No, because I worked in this field and it's nothing but smoke and mirrors. The longer I looked at it, the less anything made sense: there is no technical improvement, it's a solution in search of a problem. Permissioned (private) chains might make sense, but these aren't web3.

    So I saw a fascinating video recently by @GeraldUndone about video waveforms, and today I've been tinkering up a visualisation to help explain how they work.

    It's Really Simple™ - just think of the image as a five-dimensional object being rotated 90° in three-dimensional space.

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.
