    #166 add LinkedIn support

    Aaron Parecki
    I'd love to see this too. I've found myself (manually) POSSEing more of my content there lately, since I basically stopped using Facebook and there are now some people who are following me only on LinkedIn.

    @aaronpk
    what's your opinion on #webauth?

    Aaron Parecki
    Do you mean WebAuthn? I'm excited about it! Here's some relevant info I wrote about it: https://oauth.net/webauthn/

    @aaronpk did not know about your videos until today - they are great - thanks for making them

    Aaron Parecki
    Thanks! It's a recent endeavor but it's been fun!

    Good point. I wonder now if they're more of the "push" versus "pull". There's also the point that a lot of content on @microdotblog seems to be non-SSR; don't know if DuckDuckGo plays well with that.
    Aaron Parecki
    It's just the reader part of micro.blog that's javascript based. The actual blog content on ppls sites is all rendered out as static HTML

    @Mailchimp_API Hi, your OAuth API is returning gibberish binary responses rather than anything that's interpretable for an error (the credentials here are wrong deliberately). What's up with that?
    Aaron Parecki
    Looks like it's returning a gzip response. Try adding --compressed to the curl command.

    Okay so…

    A near total disaster tonight (entirely of my own making) means I am done with gitea. Super wonderful program, just too damn powerful by far for my limited use case.

    Looking at stagit and cgit as replacements, anyone have any experience of either?

    Aaron Parecki
    Oh no what happened? I run gogs myself and it's been working fine but I'd like to know what to look out for.

    I used to host my own git repos over ssh but found I wanted the web interface and issues as well.

    Why am I kinda excited for this?

    Tbh, I want this to be something that within my OS; I have payment info stored and if I go into Plasma Discover, elementary's App Store or like doing a checkout on the Web, it just say "Pay" and uses _that_.

    That's where the future of digital payments should have gone - my computer/device determines what works and how it works. This + allowing me to specify how to pay for things (use my BTC 🀒 or my business banking account? maybe pull from Venmo?)

    Aaron Parecki
    This sounds exactly like what Web Payments is doing. It's not live everywhere yet but has good adoption where it matters: https://caniuse.com/payment-request

    DANGIT! I had a reminder set to look when .dev got out of early access, but it's marked as "premium" and I can't justify that cost.
    Aaron Parecki
    hey that's not a bad price for a single word! Some of the ones I was looking at were "premium" at $500/yr+

    This is great! Ah, it makes so much sense — I am envious of how you always come up with cool hack projects. Frankly speaking, it’s surprising no social network explored this fun concept. Kudos!

    Aaron Parecki
    Thanks! It was a fun project! It was also quite a lot of work to shoot all those photos, which is probably why more people haven't already done this.

    I would call the next episode of Micro @Monday β€œAMA” (Ask Manton Anything), but β€œanything” is way too broad a parameter. But do let me know what questions about Micro.blog you have. @manton will do his best to answer them! (You can email me at jean@micro.blog, too.)

    The map changes depending on where I am! I'm in Portland right now tho, and our river is kinda the same shape as that area maybe.

    If someone had asked me a few months whether there were more dog people than cat people on Micro.blog, I would have said the former. But we have had a lot of adorable cats and almost no dogs lately….

    Aaron Parecki
    I am happy to contribute pictures of @indiewebcat to this cause

    Interestingly, on the Twitter copy of this post, it shows an image. However, that image is NOT a visible part of either this post or the article you linked to. Where is it coming from?
    Aaron Parecki
    It's my "featured" image of the post. I originally used the picture at the bottom but it didn't look good small so I made a new one.

    @aaronpk @manton2 the term Micropub is an awful one to use. Why? Because anytime I search the web for it, all I get are pubs and breweries. Please consider using a different term.
    Aaron Parecki
    Sorry, it's been called Micropub since 2013 so not really possible to change now. You can try adding additional keywords to get better results: W3C, API, IndieWeb, or any programming language, etc.

    Aaron you do not need any more monitors.
    Aaron Parecki
    Little do you know of my secret plan to turn all of the walls of the office into a giant monitor array.

    πŸ‘ I always forget what a luxury it is to not be constrained by physical space.

    I just built a VM server with a NUC which I'm very pleased with, it was $1k, 32gb, 1tb ssd, 2tb hd, i9, but my main goal was that it should disappear into my desk

    That's actually one of our MacBook Pros I've got connected there :) but yes, the hardware power of a Linux or Windows based custom build is like half of the cost of that laptop.

    The new monitors are here!!! Can't wait to hook them up to my new PC custom build in a couple weeks, but for now I can still use a couple with my laptop. Middle monitor is a 27" Dell UltraSharp 4k. 😎 I am STOKED!

    I wish i could do this with a Mac, I really do. Do I need to switch to Windows?

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.
