    Brilliant one-line nginx directive to serve a built-in robots.txt response.

    Making my todo list for today and already getting overwhelmed. Also I really want a way to name Chrome windows and all their related tabs.

    Wondering if it's possible to use a magstripe writer to encode a @Final virtual number onto a physical credit card...

    In retrospect, watching Andreas on a bumpy plane was not the best idea. Or I guess it just added to the experience or something.

    A couple post-indiewebcamp hacks I did on the plane coming back:

    • Updated layout of 3-up multiphoto posts
    • Thanks to @adactio, I now ping archive.org with any URLs I link to in a post
    • Fixed a bug with my inline "load more" links
    • Again inspired by @adactio, my tag pages show a sparkline

    Finally landed in Lisbon! That was quite an adventure. That took so long my body has no idea what time it is anymore. Here's hoping I have no jetlag tomorrow!

    Timezones are hard. That's what I get for not switching my computer timezone in SLC.

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.
