    Probably the best thing on the G7XIII is the lens.

    I wish this lens was on every point and shoot from now on. 24-100 1.8-2.8 πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

    I know you don't have this anymore, but did you see the weird thing when taking a picture, the screen would continue to show the live view for a second before the preview of the photo appeared? The previous gen didn't do that. I can't figure out if there's a setting somewhere...

    @aaronpk Woah this is really cool, how did you do it?

    Aaron Parecki
    motion sensor in the box, door contact sensor on the door, connected to home-assistant. node-RED flow to watch for motion without the door opening (dirty), door opens (clean), tells home-assistant to turn the light different colors!

    took quite a bit to get to this point but I'm pretty happy with how quick it is to make rules like this now!

    @aaronpk next plan. Have Aaron share his catboxcode

    Aaron Parecki
    that's the brilliant part about this node-red platform, no coding required! As much as I'm happy to write code to make stuff work, it's nice when I don't have to!

    @aaronpk you've fallen for my evil plan. To have you build cool ideas like this i can swipe!

    Aaron Parecki
    Please do! The ideas are the easy part! πŸ˜‰

    Well I’d suggest a nifty video. IndieWeb in 5 minutes. Don’t talk about the details or the implementation (that’s tech babble). Show em what’s in for Joe. Solid reasons like displaying a feed the way you like it and not how \$silo AI decided. (Still working on that :))
    Aaron Parecki
    That's exactly the challenge, it means different things to different people. For example that example isn't appealing to everyone, only people who are annoyed with that particular feature of silos. Other people like the "own your data" aspect.

    SMS 2FA is always better than no 2FA though.
    Aaron Parecki
    If SMS is purely for 2FA then yes. but quite often adding SMS 2FA also lets you use SMS for account recovery, and that is worse than having no 2FA.

    What factor would you prefer though?
    Aaron Parecki
    Something that can't be taken away from me without my knowledge. So, yubikey, TOTP, or even push notification, etc.

    HOW did the CEO of Twitter's account get hacked? Don't y'all have people for that? An oh shit button? 2FA? Something?
    Aaron Parecki
    SIM hijacking is a thing, and why SMS should never be used for two factor authentication

    I just tweaked the DOM to illustrate what I'd like to see. I (would) love it, too. 🀞
    Aaron Parecki
    But for real, there's some new work going on around this right now, the idea is to add structure to the scopes requested so they can do things like this, or asking for permission into a specific bank account or for a specific dollar amount, etc

    I want to see this in @oauth_2 . Limits per usage with automatic revocation once the max is reached. Is anyone doing this? I've never seen it.
    Something similar found here, but not the same if I'm reading it correctly: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6819#section-5.1.5.4
    Aaron Parecki
    I love this. What service is this? It doesn't look like the normal Facebook OAuth screen I've seen.

    This looks really awesome, thank you for laying all this groundwork. People like you make me hopeful in a time when hope is rare!

    There is no reason that your personal website couldn't ping my personal website when you post an awesome new photo, and yet the entirety of some artists' work is held in an Instagram profile- these are choices we have made as developers, creators, and as a society
    Aaron Parecki
    There's definitely a growing worldwide community doing exactly this right now! #indieweb

    [I don't know what happened with your reply there? It might be leaking your location?]

    I realise that; I was replying to Phil with something that would work for his instructions (of which step 1 was creating your own Foursquare app).

    Foursquare requires the client secret, simon doesn't want to ship the secret in the code, so the only way to do it is for simon to host a web service that acts as a relay.

    When I wrote a script to get all of a user’s checkins to make an ical feed I couldn’t find anything and ended up with the laborious instructions here https://github.com/philgyford/foursquare-feeds
    Aaron Parecki
    It definitely exists, I use it for copying my checkins going forward to my website. I just haven't done the full import of past checkins yet. https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/api/users/checkins

    @aaronpk but the carbon emissions of that air commute are much, much greater, even compared to long car commutes!

    Aaron Parecki
    That is very true, which is why I'm glad I don't actually commute every day :-)

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.
