Last night at the #oredev speaker dinner I got to participate in either an old Swedish tradition or an elaborate prank they play on foreigners: alternating between the sauna and jumping into the Baltic Sea three times.

Either way it was a fun experience. 😆

Slides from my "How to Hack OAuth" talk at #oredev are up!

Thanks everyone for coming to watch and I hope you got something out of it! I'll post again when the video is out!

Trying to use emoji in my slides and I have some questions:

1) why is there no "window" emoji
2) why is there a floor lamp in the couch 🛋 emoji
3) why is there only a lightbulb 💡 on, but not off

for april 1 next year I think I'm going to change the oauth.net home page to show just a login page that asks you to type in your google username and password and see what happens 😎

It seems to be socially acceptable to watch videos on your phone with the sound turned on in public places like restaurants and cafes in Memphis. I've seen *so many* people of all ages here doing it, and nobody seems to complain. Is this a regional thing?

welp, the rumors were true, Google did in fact buy FitBit: https://www.theverge.com/2019/11/1/20943318/google-fitbit-acquisition-fitness-tracker-announcement

I *want* to switch to an Apple watch, but I can't until it has built-in automatic sleep tracking like the FitBit does!

If Google buys FitBit, I'm quitting and finally getting an Apple watch. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-fitbit-m-a-alphabet-exclusive/exclusive-google-owner-alphabet-in-bid-to-buy-fitbit-sources-idUSKBN1X71NY

me: "someone is wrong on the internet!"

also me: tries to find out why this person might be misinformed and track down the root cause to help more people not get confused again later

also also me: this sounds like a lot more work than writing an angry comment

I just realized how outrageous my schedule is the next few days:

My todo list in @Todoist got so long that I started a new one for a specific project in Notes and it's been working great.

Not sure if this speaks more to the usability of Todoist or my own organizational skills.

Currently on the plane to Zurich and wow I forgot how much of an accent Swiss German is! 🇨🇭

Getting a head start on IndieWebCamp Brighton hack day! If you are on any page on my website and enter the Konami code, you will get a very small surprise. 😆

I'm not gonna say JSON Web Tokens are *bad* (if used properly), but I'm also not gonna say they're *great* either.

Here's an interesting alternative though: PASETO
