I think my favorite new weird feature of Aperture is the ability to switch it into "Demo Mode" which will hide certain channels from view and from Microsub clients. This comes in handy when taking screenshots and doing presentations where I don't want to reveal some of my private channels I have!
@indiewebcat is trying out Monocle as well
Monocle+Aperture are coming along nicely! I just got my GitHub notifications piped into the reader, which is a much nicer experience than reading them via email or trying to track them down on github.com! I have a few channels set to show just an indicator dot when there are new posts rather than showing the number of new posts, a much calmer experience. Unread posts show up with a faint yellow glow around them, and they're automatically marked as read when they scroll off the screen. At this point, I've actually moved all of the feeds I was previously following from IRC into Aperture as a way to force myself to continue putting the finishing touches on it!
Monocle is coming along nicely! It now automatically marks things as read as you scroll through the timeline. The unread counts in the sidebar update automatically when new posts come in as well! I'm getting so close to being able to completely switch off of IRC as my reader!
I want this video wall in my house. How can I make this happen. #dolbytheatre #metreon #thefuture
Brought some books with me to give away during #iterateconf! Come find me during the breaks! #oauth2simplified
Good morning San Francisco!
This is pretty cool being able to sign in to an iOS app with my own website
Goodbye Baltimore! That was a fun #IndieWebCamp weekend!
Well this is an interesting iOS bug 🐛
wow I haven't slept in a room this dark in years
The Apple Park Visitor Center is pretty neat. I do wish it was two floors taller so it had a better view of the space ship tho
Neat #AugmentedReality demo of the new Apple Park building. Pointing the iPad at the scale model on the table shows an animated overlay of what it looks like inside!
Session grid for IndieWebCamp Austin!

It's amazing how many stories there are in even this little sliver of a picture of this kitchen. The fridge, the floor, the countertops, the sink faucet, the cabinets, the dishwasher, the keys. Each has a distinct memory from a different period of time, some good and some bad. It's officially the end of an era, but I'm happy to move on.
Enjoying a glass of champagne on the train home after signing the papers to sell my house in Eugene. 🥂🍾👋🏠 It's been a rough past 8 years with this house so I'm glad to have that behind me. I hope the family that bought it enjoys it as much as I did when I lived there!

My #hamradio setup tonight participating in the Portland NET simplex exercise. The apartment shadows half the city so I can only hear a few stations and have to get others to relay my messages. Sometimes it's a nice reminder to see how much work it takes to communicate long distances without the Internet. #w7apk

@adactio spotted in Toronto
It’s really bad. You can’t even see to the other side of the bay. It looks like you’re looking out over the ocean.
Good morning San Francisco. I came prepared.
Crazy view of the California fires flying into SFO this morning
Well that wasn't what I was planning on doing today.
That sure is a lot of icon resolutions. #ios11
