    Starting to see video ads running *behind* multiple paragraphs of text on news websites. If I wasn't using an ad blocker before, I will be now.

    Yep! One of my favorite airlines
    Aaron Parecki
    @AlaskaAir is great! I just hope they let me roll my Gold 75K status over to next year since I've only qualified for MVP so far this year and would really hate to lose it!

    Now that I know that glucose goes up when I sleep, I am hesitant to nap as I don’t want to mess the downward slope of the chart with a spike… not what I was expecting when I installed a CGM 😛
    Aaron Parecki
    oh you will have to tell me more about this, I have been wanting a CGM for a long time but haven't found any reasonable way to do it on my own!

    Isn’t maintenance half the fun with FDM printers? Well, I suppose I’m thinking of “modding” rather than “maintenance” heh

    Aaron Parecki
    For me the fun is actually making stuff! Though I did just install some LED bars on my printers, and I'm setting up Octopi on both of them now. But hopefully I'll be back in business and able to actually print things again shortly!

    @aaronpk That would be great. And imagine if you could log in and have your personal library on the back of the seat. 🤯

    Aaron Parecki
    I mean I already have that when I remember to sync media to my phone before the flight, but there's many reasons that wouldn't work on a commercial flight.

    I just want the Plex app experience with the airline's movie selection! Even on my own device!

    They typically either use a satellite or a local media server. The local server can be down a lot but I suspect there are a lot of parties to share blame across there, not just the media system vendor.

    Plex might not want the bad press ;-)
    Aaron Parecki
    Sure but like the iOS app shouldn't crash when it tries to start playing a movie

    @aaronpk I am developing a ground truth app to evaluate smart crosswalk technologies. I saw your ios gps app on github. Does it get access to raw GNSS data? I found DNSSLogger for the android that does this and am looking for iOS code that does this.
    Aaron Parecki
    as far as I know you can't get access to that on iOS, it's just an abstraction and gives you just the GPS coordinates. I haven't looked at the actual APIs in quite a few years but that's at least how it worked last time I checked.

    If we ship support for tracking pageviews & events via server-side API, will any of you use it?
    Aaron Parecki
    I absolutely would use it for tracking events! I had to write some front end code specifically to do that now but I'm missing out on some data because I can't do it server side

    @aaronpk may I ask you a few questions about this product? Background - I've used OBS for long timeframe livestreaming with some issues in the past, but I've noticed that after a few hours of livestreaming, it starts to glitch out because of memory issues. It's worse with ffmpeg - livestreaming bitrate drops drastically as time goes on. I assume since this product is hardware based, it wouldn't have those issues?

    Also, what does this mean? "Plus the built in USB connections work like a webcam, so you can connect a computer and use any streaming software, or even Skype or Zoom." Does it mean that you can stream to Skype or Zoom, or from?

    I understand that this and OBS are not directly comparable. Just wanted to know your thoughts on these questions.

    Aaron Parecki
    Yep any time they say "work like a webcam" it means you can bring the video feed from these into Zoom or OBS like you'd plug in an actual USB webcam.

    The ATEM Mini Pro and Extreme can do the encoding and streaming directly to YouTube and other platforms, which would avoid doing that encoding in your computer with OBS which is causing the issues you're seeing. Generally I prefer offloading that to external devices for that reason. But yes like you noticed, they can stream to only one place, so you have to use things like Restream or a raspberry pi if you want to push to multiple platforms.

    Is this for "short" podcasts. LOL Actually it would be a killer tool.

    I did a video about it actually! There would be so many excellent uses of it! https://youtu.be/i5jUgMDRe-0

    I meant a notification to a smart speaker or display (which I hope is true as that would be super useful when at home)

    I would have thought those would use Bluetooth which is a different prompt

    My guess is to send notifications to a Cast-enabled device (since Apple is shady and doesn't require consent for AirPlay)
    Aaron Parecki
    I know drivers sometimes have the little appliances in their cars to light up with the passengers names, but what could this do as a passenger? When I'm in a Lyft I'm not even on wifi

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.
