    @AlaskaAir if someone is traveling with me on the same itinerary and I have 75k status, shouldn’t their boarding group be the same as mine? Just checked in and this is not the case
    Aaron Parecki
    In my experience the gate agents will have no problem letting them board with you regardless of what's printed on their boarding pass.

    Or are you looking to send TripActions bookings to TripIt?
    Aaron Parecki
    I know this probably isn't what you want to hear, but I really don't want TripActions to be the source of truth, I'd rather keep that in something that doesn't actually book tickets or pay for things for me like TripIt.

    TripActions app has its own itin, are you looking to add events to the TripActions itin?
    Aaron Parecki
    Nope other way around. Sometimes I end up booking things outside of TripActions, like when I book a hotel with a conference group code.

    I guess that’s why I never understood it bc I use a Google Voice # for transactions like this.
    Aaron Parecki
    They'd get an error message trying to verify a google voice number with another google voice number and I'm sure they would just give up after that and move on. My main number is a google voice number I've had for almost 15 years now 😅

    I’m looking into it, apparently they register a Google voice in your name, your reply with a code and they take over your number and cause mayhem https://news.trendmicro.com/2021/11/04/google-voice-scam-facebook-verification-code/
    Aaron Parecki
    I think the end game is to get a google voice account which gives them a number to use for other scams. You need a real phone number to verify a google voice account. I don't think it has anything to do with you personally, or using your name/identity in the further scams.

    I somehow ended up with not one, not two, but three separate hotel reservations for my trip next week, and I am baffled as to what part of my normal travel process failed that caused this to occur.
    Aaron Parecki
    Actually I think the problem is that we are now forced to use TripActions, and TripIt doesn't know how to parse the flight confirmation emails from TripActions, so I no longer have a single view of my travel anymore

    I imagine the live streaming gear is continuing to get close to pushing you over the carry-on limits….
    Aaron Parecki
    See this is why I like the yolobox so much, because it ends up being really not that much stuff at all! I'm even able to still fit the drone!

    It is SHOCKING to see how much cellular data some apps use. Lightroom, I get. I shouldn’t have opened it. But IMDb? All I did was look up an actor! Toggling off the high data offenders to not make those mistakes again. Ouch!
    Aaron Parecki
    I'm guessing at least 80% of that IMDB usage is loading their ads 🙄

    Folks, if you fly right now try NOT TO CHECK LUGGAGE. If you are able to just go with a carry on for your trip, do so. It gives you a lot more options for flexibility when the airline industry falls on its face.
    Aaron Parecki
    Seriously! I was already pretty adamant about not checking bags before, but it's gotten really bad!

    Thankfully the gate checked bags for the tiny planes don't throw your bag into the checked baggage system

    Habanero Hot Sauce

    Aaron Parecki
    Made 120oz of hot sauce!

    The last batch from Feb ran out last week, but I was expecting it to run out in May! This should last the rest of the year!

    I made two changes this time. I used 2tbsp of corn starch instead of 2tsp. I also added a chopped apple with the goal of its pectin thickening up the sauce a bit and keeping it from separating.

    Thanks to @motherbee for the suggestions!

    @aaronpk Joining you for your O'Reilly OAuth class on today. You should know, the way you've generously shared your presentation skills (ATEM Mini, etc) have 100% upped my game. So grateful to you! Pull out the stops on the show today!

    ah thanks! See you there!

    You would think that in 2022, security vendors would know better than to cold call security professionals on their personal numbers to try to sell them services. But… they don’t. 🫠 if you don’t respect my privacy, why would I trust you with my customers’ privacy?
    Aaron Parecki
    omg yes I have been getting so many of these. I apparently made the mistake of putting in my phone number when I registered for some conference recently and the cold calls I get now are out of control.

    The mindset of using modern technology is only trusting it here and now but always having backups and alternatives
    Aaron Parecki
    Yes! That's pretty much exactly how I approach things, including twitter! All these tweets are actually on my own website even!

    With that link, I’m assuming you mean “don’t trust them”—which is my point. Yet their business model(s) claim we can, and worse…should.

    This gets nastier when you introduce IoT and right-to-repair to the conversation.

    How do we continue to push online services, subscription models, and near constant online connections to normal users without showing them they can trust anything to last 10 years?
    Aaron Parecki
    Um, you don't. It's a bad model. https://indieweb.org/site-deaths
