    @aaronpk

    "Weirdly" that string has google hits.

    Aaron Parecki
    hmmmm I can't imagine why this particular string has been relevant for the last *checks notes* ten years

    @aaronpk From a dev standpoint it's just good practice, right? Distributing your consumer secret keys to so many devices so your team never misplaces it, right?....

    It's like when I share my ssh private key in my public github repo for backup purposes along with a list of all servers it can access. (/sarcasm)

    Aaron Parecki
    but for reals tho, the best way to make sure you have a backup of your data is to publish it as widely as possible. There are some photos from 15+ year old projects that I wish I had published more widely because somehow I've lost track of them over the years.

    @aaronpk Oh lord are they charging for their *oauth* APIs too? That would be... incredibly short-sighted

    Aaron Parecki
    who knows at this point. We'll see next week, but I wouldn't guarantee any particular behavior at this point

    @aaronpk FWIW, OAuth appears to be treated separately from APIv1.1 and APIv2. itโ€™s feasible that it will keep working for free. but itโ€™s anybodyโ€™s guess at this point https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/api-reference-index

    Aaron Parecki
    It's true, they are slightly different, but you still have to go through the developer portal to register an app for "log in with"

    @aaronpk I get the feeling Twitter doesn't know either.

    Aaron Parecki

    PSA: If you use Twitter to sign in to stuff, you should double check you have another way to get in to those accounts asap. With Twitter charging ??? for API access next week, you have no way of knowing whether the apps you use are going to pay that.

    @Aaronpk are you aware of any attempts to port overland to Android? Iโ€™m thinking of embarking on that journey unless someone else has started something I can contrib to.
    Aaron Parecki
    Yes it exists already!

    Gumroad's price increase will take effect in 5 days! ๐Ÿ˜ฐ @gumroad
    Are you staying or moving? If you're moving, where to & why?

    If you're still looking for a Gumroad alternative, I'd love to personally onboard you to @typedreamHQ products! https://buff.ly/3WWPZVa
    Aaron Parecki
    I'd be interested in trying it out it it can support digital downloads with file sizes up to 8gb each. So far Gumroad is the only one I've found that lets me host files that big without a monthly fee.

    @aaronpk itโ€™s very odd since I believe their devices like firetv have this sort of flow implemented. So they know how just for some reason donโ€™t do it?

    Aaron Parecki
    yeah I was surprised! And Amazon even has some folks who are part of the OAuth working group too, but maybe just not on the Alexa team.

    May I introduce you to the "metaverse" (ignore that it was coined by a company that changed their name to meta). Or maybe "synergy" is more to your liking?
    Aaron Parecki
    2024 will be the year of the Syneverse

    Dear TikTok/Short form creators.

    Put the damn lavalier mic on your lapel where itโ€™s supposed to be and stop waving it around in front of the camera.

    Same goes for your ear bud microphone.

    Stop it.

    Kindly signed,

    Teaching people how to use their gear "properly" is a losing battle at this point. I mean how do you think we ended up with vertical video?

    Nope! I recently deleted it all and it freed up literally terabytes of space. In 6 years of YouTube, I've never once needed it after filming.

    B roll is a totally different story, and I've found an archive to be priceless.
    Aaron Parecki
    I've been keeping everything for now, but so far have never gone back to dig up the a-roll. I'm going to trash it all when I need the space. I've screencap'd a youtube video where I want to show that it was on youtube with the date and such. Agreed about b-roll tho.

    oh it's bad. I refuse to leave the house unless I have *two* reasons. I will not go to only one grocery store. It has to be at least grocery store and take out the trash.

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.
