    Still boggles the mind the financial industry has not pushed OAuth as a model for delegating access to transaction history data for aggregators w/o exposing customer passwords. Most seem to still be fine with 3rd party aggregators accepting customer credentials... #solvedProblem

    ooh, the Google link is at least helpful for "look, I'm not crazy, Google don't trust client secrets on Windows" :)
    Aaron Parecki
    oh you're definitely not crazy, I just sometimes forget that not everybody already knows this :-) Most of what I've written on this starts with the assumption that the reader already knows mobile apps can't keep secrets.

    Does anyone have an approachable article for "don't trust the client"? Best I've found is the OAuth threat model RFC (RFC 6819), but it's a bit too long to ask others to read for a quick overview :) (not work related)
    Aaron Parecki
    Good question. If you find anything, let me know and I can add a link to it on https://oauth.net/2/native-apps/

    Guessing from the header image... was, ironically, the article about Google surveillance?

    Surely a static site can't include dynamic content like Webmentions, right?
    Wrong. 😎

    @mxstbr shows us how he added Webmentions to his #JAMstack site in the second post of his Static Indie Web series.

    A couple weeks back my system font turned into a bunch of boxes. It was...alarming.

    Command + Control + Power Button -- someone who crashes these computers a lot.
    Aaron Parecki
    Of course this is while I'm using an external keyboard (with no power button) and my laptop is closed and neatly tucked under the desk.

    3rd row up from the bottom
    Aaron Parecki
    Turns out it was 4th from the bottom. Bottom is "Log Out", then "Lock Screen", then "Shut Down", then "Restart"

    This is clearly a sign I need to restart my computer. If only I knew which of these options was "restart"

    Practically every conversation I've had in this new year has eventually hit on, "I had no idea how burnt out I was at the end of last year." Followed by a knowing and commiserating nod from the other side of the table.

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.
