This afternoon's Pixlemator Pro Live Training has been cancelled as I needed to extend my stay in Austin. I will however still release it on Saturday morning as usual. If you were planning to watch live, DM me and I'll issue you a free coupon to view it on the site. Sorry!
How long are you going to be in Austin? I'm going to be there this weekend! Maybe we can grab coffee!

@aaronpk Actually, I don't recognize the desk. Or I don't think so :)
It's in your SF office! -

@aaronpk I thought for a second you were using the Ipad that is the zoom room controller as a second screen. That would have been neat.
There's so many screens here.
Do you recognize the desk? ;-) -

very nice. Is this Monocle? I'd love to ian more about your setup.
Yeah it is! Here's a post that outlines some of the technical details! https://aaronparecki.com/2018/03/12/17/building-an-indieweb-reader -

@aaronpk I'm not planning on it! But I'd like to be able to audit my use of pre-rolled crypto better.
👍 good reason to learn! -

I really need to up my crypto-math-fu I guess. It's the weakest link in my toolkit.
never roll your own crypto -

@aaronpk I would guess they're looking at traffic patterns and just dropping packets that match what they think are files being sent. Similar to how mobile carriers attempt to enforce limits on supported video resolution for data streamed over HTTPS security.stackexchange.com/questions...
ahhh that is an excellent read, thanks!! -

ever wondered whether it's possible to measure the similarity between sets of ingredients in cocktails so you can conceptualize drinks in a connected graph, in which edges represent substitutions?
no? well, https://beta.observablehq.com/@tmcw/cocktail-similarity
This is the best.
I often describe my second favorite cocktail, the Boulevardier, as a Negroni but with whiskey instead of gin. -

@oyam @aaronpk Gogo recommends turning off iMessages in their guide, so I’d assume it has to do with that. It’s probably causing iMessages to fail completely and iMessages is falling back to SMS (unless you had that explicitly disabled?).
Actually wait no, SMS won't work at all in airplane mode because it disables the cell antenna. Gogo has a mode that explicitly enables iMessage, but without photos. -

@aaronpk Is maybe iMessages falling back on SMS? If there is no support for MMS, images would be left behind, and only text making it through.
Nope I don't use a phone number with iMessage and all the bubbles are still blue. -
I guess I'm confused because I can upload photos to my website over https just fine but somehow photos in iMessage are blocked... 🤔
-
I guess? I don't know enough about the protocol and where the encryption happens to understand how that works.

No. They'd have to install the plugin, which demonstrates that the content actually resides elsewhere, outside of Twitter's control.
But then they literally have to visit Twitter to see it. I still think it's a cool idea and would help me stay in touch with more people but it still seems like only half a solution. -

Another strategy would be to put half of your tweets on Twitter directly, then tweet out that you have another n tweets that people *could* have seen here, but they'll have to install the plugin.
There is definitely already a *lot* of my content that doesn't make it to Twitter and you have to follow my website to see it. I hadn't considered actually promoting this fact on my Twitter account tho! Not a bad idea!

But you're still using Twitter, which (a) helps them and (b) gives your tweeps no extra incentive to leave.
If you made your stuff available only using a browser plugin that added your microposts to people's feeds, it would help make your open protocols go viral.
Wouldn't making my content available via a browser plugin that shows it on twitter.com still do exactly the thing you're talking about, not giving my tweeps a reason to stop visiting Twitter? -

@aaronpk I'm guessing you might know better, with #OAuth is it possible to only get the info if the user is who they claim to be (but without a password) or is it also possible to get the info to for example which groups he/she is associated with (like admin, user, reader)?
Technically OAuth doesn't even give you user info, you're getting in to OpenID Connect/IndieAuth territory if you want that. As for groups and roles, those are super specific to the implementation so aren't really part of the standard at all. You can use OAuth as a framework to do this but you won't find much in the way of standards for it. -
Not at all! I wrote up a bunch about how this works here: https://aaronparecki.com/2018/04/20/46/indieweb-reader-my-new-home-on-the-internet

@aaronpk This is echoing to a twitter account, yeah?
Yeah I have to have a Twitter account for this to work but my site just uses the Twitter API to push content there. -

Pretty pleased I managed to have this entire conversation with @lsanger on Twitter using only my own website and tools! Never had to visit Twitter or use any Twitter apps! Our #indieweb tools have come a long way! #ownyourdata
and here is my previous post pushed out to Twitter and visible on Mastodon! #indieweb #ftw #distribution
