    @-mentioning people on my blog

    Aaron Parecki
    Awesome!

    If your webmention sender looks at the rendered HTML to find links, then you won't have to add anything special for this syntax! That's how I handle it on my site, since some of my posts are plaintext source and I don't want to match @-names and URLs in totally separate code paths.

    I have an extra Baofeng UV-5 (or some variation) if that's what you seek.
    Aaron Parecki
    @tomas_quinones I don't think those pick up the 88-108 broadcast range, do they? Anyway I want something consumery for this.

    The weird thing is that a lot of phones have an fm radio in, but it is disabled
    Aaron Parecki
    I've heard that. I don't think I can get a phone with a radio cheaper than I can get a plain radio tho.

    OAuth Working Group
    Aaron Parecki
    I've seen this done a few ways:

    • The Device Flow: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-device-flow which is what you see on browserless devices like the Apple TV logging in to a cable provider from your phone. A short code is generated and displayed on the screen, you launch a browser on your phone and enter the code. This would work just as well from the command line on the same device.
    • I've also seen apps use the authorization flow, by displaying the authorization URL on the command line prompt and instructing the user to open it in a browser. The redirect URI is a hosted web page that displays the authorization code and instructs the user to paste it back at the terminal.
    • The command line app can launch an HTTP server on localhost and use that as the redirect URL for the authorization code flow. This option ends up being the most seamless since it works like a traditional flow without any special instructions to the user.

    Ask HN: What are we doing about Facebook, Google, and the closed internet?

    Aaron Parecki
    I am a member of the W3C Social Web Working Group (https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg), and have been organizing IndieWebCamp (https://indieweb.org/) conferences in this space for the last 7 years. We've been making a lot of progress:

    • https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/ - cross-site commenting
    • https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ - API for apps to create posts on various servers
    • https://www.w3.org/TR/websub/ - realtime subscriptions to feeds
    • More: https://indieweb.org/specs

    We focus on making sure there are a plurality of implementations and approaches rather than trying to build a single software solution to solve everything.

    Try commenting on my copy of this post on my website by sending me a webmention!

    Thank you to the #dotnetfringe organisers for making a white version of the some of the sponsors' logos! Way easier to read now.
    Aaron Parecki
    @adymitruk haha, glad you noticed! I tried finding a press kit on sponsors' websites but not all had one. Took some creative photoshopping!

    I can work up hex versions of these sketches to get the ball rolling.
    Aaron Parecki
    @veganstraightedge That would be super awesome! For things w/o logos, a text design would work too e.g. http://hexb.in/hexagons/jsconfuy.png

    Q: What's your favorite web feed format for sharing your posts & updates? XML? JSON? HTML w/ Microformats? Other? #rss #atom #json #hentry
    Aaron Parecki
    @statictimes HTML+Microformats2. Would have been a better poll if the options you wrote in the tweet matched the poll options.

    Opened the Mac App Store for the first time in months. There's a $30 app for writing Medium posts. Backing away slowly.

    @benwerd That's... amazing. Too bad they don't support Micropub cause then I might be tempted ๐Ÿ˜‰

    i read about your reasoning and it sounds like you've built a cool real-time dashboard around IRC - any suggestion for mac/web clients? thx!

    @brianjesse I mostly use https://www.glowing-bear.org on iOS/mac which is a web client. Limechat is also good.

    All the public Movim feeds can be exported to Atom XML feeds https://nl.movim.eu/?feed/pubsub.movim.eu/Movim . Is his format an IETF one? I prefer to stick to Internet standards and not use some indie protocols and formats for now (especially regarding the support/breaking compatibilityโ€ฆ)

    Aaron Parecki

    Adding Microformats makes the W3C Webmention protocol super useful. For example, here are a bunch of my replies to posts on all sorts of different social networks, all because they support Microformats and Webmention: https://aaronparecki.com/replies?before=20170522T074418%2B0200

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.
