After today's IndieWebCamp popup session, I built a way to create unlisted posts on my site that require a secret key in the URL in order to view.

Since all my URLs are more or less sequential, I needed a way to be able to add something to the URL that is unguessable. It was a relatively easy thing to add!

Try viewing this post without the secret string at the end to see the feature in action: https://aaronparecki.com/2021/06/26/9/MXJEJKW

I want to share how the scammers almost got into my bank account, because I think as tech savvy people, sometimes we forget we are still vulnerable, and it's always good to have a reminder of what to watch out for.

I'd usually call it just a "website". Static sites I'd call "static site", and most SPAs I'd call "shitty garbage" 😅

Haha I like the idea but I’d need a lot more of them :-) No, replacing all the cameras I use for my main studio setup. No longer a mix; consistent look, all network controllable, all have synchro scan shutter angle… it’s dreamy.

People ask me how to pronounce GNAP, and I just tell them it's pronounced "gnap", kinda like GIF is pronounced "gif".

New #indieweb libraries: taproot/micropub-adapter and taproot/indieauth!

Finally put the finishing touches on these two closely-related libraries, which make it quick and easy to add Micropub and IndieAuth support to any PHP app which uses PSR-7.

Feedback appreciated, either as replies, GH issues, or at indieweb.org/discuss

It’s a drive discontinued 6 years ago, and users expect the cloud-based infrastructure to still work? I think it’s 6 years past the time to use it as anything but a dumb usb drive …

The hardware "not working" is very different from the hardware still having an active connection to the cloud that can be exploited to wipe the drive. If it "didn't work" I'd expect it to be effectively offline.

It is supposed to be 111°F (44°C) this weekend and I legit just bought ducting and fans to try to pipe in the air conditioned air from upstairs into my studio so everything doesn't melt down there 😅

I and a couple of friends are heading to the beach on Monday to escape this craziness!

I don't really think that solves the problem 🤔
