    The most critical skill you can develop as a maker is to learn how to take a product/feature/etc and cut it into 1/10 the size, and fearlessly ship it. Find the tiny bit that still makes it useful and only build that.

    If you work at WeWork, drive home with Uber, and then order food by DoorDash, you're engaging with three companies that are projected to lose about $13 billion this year.

    I watch quite a lot of your videos, but to be honest, I really could care less about an Olympus TG-6. For me personally, it’s the least interesting topic I’ve seen you cover. Maybe it’s not a scheduling thing and just a topic others like me aren’t interested in?

    OH. So not just for motion? The sound, smoke alarm, and CO alarm toggles all go to the cloud as well. I'll share your request for universal button with the team. Sorry for my confusion!
    Aaron Parecki
    I just want to make sure the footage isn't uploaded anywhere. None of these explanations give me much confidence 😆 A button to specifically disable cloud recording would be great.

    Not competing with at all. It’s the anti-VidCon. This is a place for YouTubers to learn.

    that said, I'm very curious about Vidsummit, it looks interesting! I feel like Vidcon was a good crash course in Youtube for me, but I'm not sure I can justify two conferences in the same year tho.

    Vidcon has the whole creator and industry tracks which have zero to do with fans. It's sessions about making videos. The expo hall was all tracks combined, so it was a little funny to have the Sennheiser booth next to the M&M booth.

    Curious how many of my twitter friends are going to @vidsummit this year… (if you ARE going, also comment below so I know who to look for!)
    Aaron Parecki
    I'd never heard of it before. They're clearly competing with Vidcon with their home page copy! 😂 "VidSummit is NOT a place where influencers connect with their fans."

    Amazing! Did you get any funny questions from the crew or was it pretty straightforward?

    Thanks for your feedback! Do you have a specific link that I can send the team to look at?

    To turn off cloud recording, turn off the motion detection. That's the only toggle for that particular aspect. You can still use continuous recording to a microSD card afterward.
    Aaron Parecki
    Thanks! That's much simpler than it apparently used to be!

    Can we get a toggle that completely disables cloud uploading/recording?

    The references for how to disable cloud recording by turning off a bunch of switches don't match up with the latest version of the app!

    US-based international travelers! What phone carrier do you use for data abroad and how do you like it? With the merger of @Sprint & @TMobile I am considering other options like @googlefi or other major US carriers. Has it been seemless, is it possible to get data unthrottled?
    Aaron Parecki
    I use GigSky with my iPhone's virtual SIM! It's so nice that I don't have to swap SIM cards, and their rates are not the cheapest but totally reasonable, and it's just so so easy. I never think about it anymore.

    About blogs. My blog was essential to establishing a career in the tech industry. When I had nothing to show on my resume, my blog demonstrated that I could understand and articulate technical concepts.

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.
