    Good reminder to add "check whether the password field supports pasting from password managers" to my list of criteria when deciding where to open a bank account. https://twitter.com/KeyBank_Help/status/1148247347463446528

    Sometimes when I'm sitting on the plane about to take off, looking out the window at the other planes flying by, my mind starts wandering thinking "what would happen if..." and I end up googling some disaster. Today I landed on this Wikipedia page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_%C3%9Cberlingen_mid-air_collision

    My email inbox was so backlogged after @IndieWebSummit that I missed the emails I was getting that webmention.io was about to expire! I've renewed it, so it'll be back up and running shortly!

    Good job y'all. You effectively decentralized the term "decentralize" to the point it doesn't mean anything in particular anymore.

    I unfollowed 120 people on twitter who either I don't remember why I was following, or I used to know but haven't talked to in 6+ years, and my Twitter timeline is *noticeably* more enjoyable to read now.

    This book by @anomalily definitely helped me get a handle on my money situation. 💵 You should have seen me before. 🙈 And now her Kickstarter for the second print run is just shy of the $10,000 stretch goal! Let's get it over the top! 🚀

    Alright, if you are curious about "Sign In with Apple," I walk through exactly how it works and what it looks like in this post.

    Reading all these tweets of people freaking out about Apple requiring apps to use "Sign In with Apple" and feeling another "authentication is not authorization" rant coming. Lots of misunderstanding of sign-in vs accessing APIs. #WWDC19 #OAuth

    Initial test of the "Sign in with Apple" API:

    • It's more or less based on OAuth + OIDC
    • Their documentation is missing a lot of key info to use it right now, I had to guess at a lot of things
    • The `sub` claim includes some sort of unique user identifier, not an email

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.
