    The IRS has a new authentication provider: http://id.me.

    So to pay taxes to the US government I need to use an identity provider with a Montenegro domain. πŸ™„πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

    Looking at some of my old videos.

    Partly proud that they still get views, and that I at least TRIED a few things that I thought would work.

    Also spending time right now editing out those things (such as me embedding a "lut sale" for luts that don't exist anymore - sigh)

    wonder if youtube would ever allow us to do our own dynamic ad inserts on our own videos πŸ€”

    The rollout is in phases, with a subset of users flagged to test the live signup process. Even with that constraint, the site is easily handling ~250k simultaneous users right now, and makes up most of the top 10 federal websites currently being visited. https://analytics.usa.gov

    Dear @Eventbrite, I have an account, so please make sure it is not possible for other people to sign me up for events with only my email address. I've been added to dozens of events over the last two weeks and it's an interesting new vector for spam. @EventbriteHelp

    I write my slides in Markdown and have Reveal.JS make them look fancy: https://revealjs.com/markdown/
    Aaron Parecki
    Yeah these things are definitely nice, but I should have clarified, I can't change the way I create the slides, I just want to be able to display PDFs on my site that way it doesn't matter how I created them

    As Iβ€˜m a huge #Markdown fan: there a loads of tools that convert Markdown into slides (of all formats). Plus, Markdown always goes to HTML (and PDF, and MS DOC, and RTF, and …). Maybe start here? https://gist.github.com/johnloy/27dd124ad40e210e91c70dd1c24ac8c8

    OAuth is an excellent alternative to OpenID. If you find yourself in the need of an authentication system for your app, consider it.

    Wow. No matter how far down i scroll, I can’t find a Twitter space that interests me. It’s all sports and NFTs.
    At feature launch there was far more variety… another form of carcinization?

    I didn't know you could scroll thru twitter spaces, I only ever see them when they pop up at the top of my Twitter Home Screen πŸ˜…

    In case you missed it, I posted a video with my 10 favorite tech/video purchases from 2021 on my YouTube!

    I included only things that I actually bought myself, not including anything that was sent to me to review. I did get to review a lot of great gear too but that will be for another video.

    Here's to another year of livestreams and video production!

    Latest toy, runs Linux, weighs 24kb and is the size of a TV with much less resolution. Writing bash scripts that make loud clicky noises is fun. Recommended.
    Aaron Parecki
    I didn't realize you could get access to the Linux system on it... I've just been interacting with mine through their API. How'd you manage that?

    I believe @aaronpk was looking at something similar and got one a while ago!
    Aaron Parecki
    I did! I found some very excellent plans for a DIY one, but the cost for the parts for the DIY version ended up being 3-4x the cost of this one! Not to mention it would also be approximately a million additional hours of work. So I bought that and it's been fantastic.

    I’m not sure what kind of HLS support is out there but you can start watching content that hasn’t downloaded fully (streaming?) as of now in most clients.

    I wonder what would happen if you served an hls playlist of a livestream though. Would that work? Maybe πŸ€”

    Web1: typing email credentials into random apps leads to phishing & losing access to email

    Web2: using OAuth/OpenID with random apps leads to sharing personal info or posting on your feed/timeline

    Web3: using Metamask with random apps means you lose all your NFTs & crypto

    I'm terrified by these '.eth' user names popping up in Twitter like a virus ripping through people.

    What the hell is wrong with you all? Web3 is fraud. Crypto is money laundering for fascists.

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.
