    What’s the desktop computer life like? I’m having second thoughts on the Mac mini. I’ve been a laptop only user for the last decade.
    Aaron Parecki
    I mean my main reason for not having a desktop computer for the last 10 years has been that I'm always on planes. But that's clearly not the case anymore, so it's tempting.

    When you say "auth" do you mean authN or authZ?

    during a pandemic five hundred years from now instead of saying “shakespeare wrote king lear in quarantine” people are going to say “taylor swift wrote two albums in quarantine” and i think that’s beautiful

    I know bcrypt/hash+salt on server for storage has been best practice for ages. Or has client/browser side hashing before sending to a server been wide spread?
    Aaron Parecki
    It's part of the old-school HTTP Digest Auth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication It just doesn't really solve things the way you'd expect.

    Has anyone tried a password auth system that standardizes on some front-end hashing strategy, so that the API never sees/touches the plain text version of the password?
    Aaron Parecki
    It's one of the oldest tricks in the books 🙃

    This just seems to be buying a domain and hosting your own site instead of, for example, posting content on Medium or some other site. Am I missing something?
    Aaron Parecki
    yes that, plus using your website as a home for other kinds of online content as well! This tweet for example is actually first posted on my website, and the Twitter version is just a copy of it https://indieweb.org/POSSE

    Excellent thanks. What would be the 'next step'? If we could get social networks to have the tweets/comments ONLY be a link to your website what does that buy us? I appreciate the solution you have but it's about working within the current siloed approach
    Aaron Parecki
    If you're talking about what existing silos can do to play better with the open web, there's no reason they can't also support webmentions natively

    Aaron Parecki
    There are at least two social networks that use webmentions natively: https://micro.blog and https://pine.blog

    As for the current siloed approach, that's exactly what we're doing right now, many of us with https://brid.gy

    #indieweb folks. there are a ton of self hosted commenting systems. But what about a "universal comment" system? Where all of my comments, on any site I use, are just links back to my server. I own/host all of my comments. I'm assuming this has been discussed?
    Aaron Parecki
    This sounds like what Webmention enables. This tweet for example is actually a copy of my reply to you that I've posted to my website. It works directly from site to site too of course.

    What’s a good USB-C that has pass through power, extra ports, and media card slots?
    Aaron Parecki
    The CalDigit TB3 is great https://geni.us/hucidG but it's Thunderbolt+DisplayPort, not USB-C+HDMI.

    This Anker one is USB-C, https://geni.us/SHPKeJ1 but the HDMI is flaky with my 16" Macbook Pro.

    What program/app do you use to write scripts for your YouTube videos?

    I've used basic text programs (Windows notepad, etc. etc.), but just curious if there is an option that offers more benefits, and what those are.

    Google Docs, and I use the commenting feature to make little sidebar notes pointing out b-roll I need to shoot or other things
