    Every time i use my Windows computer I feel like I'm stuck under water and every time i press a button some other button gets pressed instead.

    I'm sure it's fine if you're used to it, but wow I just feel incompetent trying to use it.

    🤯 TIL MySQL is aware of daylight savings time, and considers any times between 2am-3am when the clocks skip forward an invalid date!

    In one session, it might throw an error, and in another session, it might store 3:00am instead of 2:05! 🤯

    I wrote up some thoughts about how Bluesky can/should support OAuth, both for applications to access users' accounts, as well as allowing users to log in to their bsky.social account using their own website!

  • OAuth Support in Bluesky and AT Protocol

    Bluesky, a new social media platform and AT Protocol, is unsurprisingly running up against the same challenges and limitations that Flickr, Twitter and many other social media platforms faced in the 2000s: passwords!

    I really need to remember that virtual presentations suck way more energy out of me than in-person events do, and I really need to not schedule 4-hour long sessions on back to back days.

    It's absolutely wild to me that companies will mail me a postcard a few weeks after an Amazon purchase and offer a $150 gift card to leave a review! Is that really profitable? Are they actually going to make back $150 because of my one review?

  • How to use your own domain as your BlueSky handle

    I recently got access to the BlueSky beta, and decided to poke around to see what it's all about. I will save the details of what it is and how I feel about it for a different post. However, one of the first things you do when you sign up is choose a username that exists under the bsky.app domain. I have zero interest in another name rush where everyone tries to claim the shortest username possible, so I went with aaronpk.bsky.app rather than trying to get a or apk.

    I'm glad to see that BlueSky supports custom domains! I have zero interest in sitting on a username in the bluesky namespace. Setting it up was roughly the same as pointing your own domain to a hosting provider, and a lot easier than Mastodon/ActivityPub!

    This is a post I wrote on my website. With any luck, this will be posted to my BlueSky account too!

    Check out this fully decked out ATEM Mini Extreme rig!

    Featuring the PK1 stand with the new #coverlee custom printed acrylic cover. The aluminum bar has enough room for the 10.1" Lilliput monitor for the ATEM's multiview as well as an iPad Mini next to it to run MixEffect or LiveApp! Plus you can still bolt a wireless HDMI receiver like the Hollyland Mars 400S to the back of the stand!

    Whoever saw these trucks and was like "hey, the FAA rule that prohibits flying drones over people doesn't apply to people inside stationary vehicles" and then flew a drone down the highway deserves a raise https://twitter.com/kgwnews/status/1629221057558376448

    I'm a big fan of using more secure two-factor authentication methods like a security key or TouchID, but I will admit I never expected charging people to use SMS would be a viable strategy to get them off it 😅 https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2023/an-update-on-two-factor-authentication-using-sms-on-twitter

    I've given many talks about how mobile apps can't be deployed with a secret, and using Twitter's 2013 "hacks" as an example. I'm just going to leave this completely unrelated string of random characters here for no particular reason

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.
