I've reached the point that a day trip to the Bay Area from Portland is effectively the same as a "long commute to work". I'm also pretty sure this is still shorter than some peoples' commutes within the Bay Area.

Me (in Australia): It took me a bit to get used to how all your power outlets have individual switches.

My mate (I use the word mate now): You mean in America the power to all the outlets is on all the time?

Me: yup

My mate: Well, that's just fucking dangerous!

also I'm imagining someone saying that in an australian accent and it is great

Last weekend I was chatting with a friend who does forensic investigation of fires and it turns out electrical outlets are ACTUALLY REALLY DANGEROUS omg. Don't ever leave a device half plugged in it turns out it *will* start a fire.

Is it weird to get hyped for your own festival? Because I’m getting hyped for my own festival. #xoxofest

If there’s one thing this trip has really impressed on me.

The RX100VII is the best travel camera ever. I’ve used it for everything here and it has yet to not be able to do something.

It works for b roll, talking head, photos, it’s the best all in one camera I’ve ever used.

It's for a tool to export the user's entire Swarm checkin history and save it to a local SQLite database file

I need this tool!

Yeah there are a couple tricks, none of which are ideal. Basically you kick off the flow from the CLI app, get the user to visit a URL, but the redirect is to your server, and then you either tell them to paste an auth code into the CLI or

or, you spin up a local web server to catch a redirect back from your backend, or you mimic the OAuth device flow on your backend. Hmm this sounds like a fun blog post 😬
