    Sometimes I am surprised at the things I've managed to keep around between all the moves I've done since 1998

    Remember when everyone was building and promoting "open" APIs? What happened to that? http://developers.instagram.com/post/133424514006/instagram-platform-update

    @mailchimp Looking at the new API 3.0 docs, I don't see a way to create and send a campaign from the API. Am I missing something?

    So @jawbone is still the most accurate sleep tracker, it's just too bad the devices keep dying after 6-9 months.

    Weekly letters from Portland developers asking if I'm interested in selling my house. Is that a sign of a real estate market boom or one that's about to bust?

    @wctek I can't find any docs on whether I can power the Piccolino from the 5v VIN *and* have it connected to a computer via the FTDI.

    At this point I would pay $$ for a small HTTP->ZWave gateway that lets me talk to the door locks. @smartthings is breaking things on me.

    Pretty sure Spotify's Discover Weekly works specifically because of the constraint they set up for themselves. It's updated once a week, and there is a finite number of songs in the list. With other services, people turn on the "recommended" station and expect an infinite stream of music that they will like.

    Thinking about ways to ease myself back in to writing music and avoiding the creative blocks I was hitting before.

    Current thought is to write a series called "bad *" where each song focuses on only one attribute, and I just do the bare minimum on everything else. Possible titles include "bad choir", "bad horns", "bad swing", "bad dubstep", "bad movie trailer".

    I call it "bad *" because if it has "bad" in the name I won't worry about making it good and will be more likely to actually finish it.

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.
