    Imagine it's Sunday morning. You've been allowed to sleep in as long as you want, and you have no chores or responsibilities all day. There's fresh fallen snow on the ground. Your mom makes Cinnamon rolls and serves you breakfast. But you're almost 3, so you are blind with rage.

    Dear TikTok/Short form creators.

    Put the damn lavalier mic on your lapel where itโ€™s supposed to be and stop waving it around in front of the camera.

    Same goes for your ear bud microphone.

    Stop it.

    Kindly signed,

    Teaching people how to use their gear "properly" is a losing battle at this point. I mean how do you think we ended up with vertical video?

    I've been making tutorials since 2013 and I have never ever needed to go back and re-edit anything. Especially after a month or years have passed. In fact, if I need to reference an old video, I download the 720p version from YouTube. A-roll is a waste of space IMO.

    a couple years ago YouTube adsense barely covered my phone billโ€ฆ now it covers my mortgage.

    if you need a KPI to inspire you let it be that.

    Nope! I recently deleted it all and it freed up literally terabytes of space. In 6 years of YouTube, I've never once needed it after filming.

    B roll is a totally different story, and I've found an archive to be priceless.
    Aaron Parecki
    I've been keeping everything for now, but so far have never gone back to dig up the a-roll. I'm going to trash it all when I need the space. I've screencap'd a youtube video where I want to show that it was on youtube with the date and such. Agreed about b-roll tho.

    Hey @YouTubeCreators it would be cool to do collab videos where it shows up on both sides similar to how music artists can on Spotify or even IG.

    Views/impressions/stats count towards both channels and would be a great way to expand audiences.

    @YouTubeLiaison letโ€™s go ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

    So when I was a kid, we had HBO, and we had a VCR, and my dad diligently recorded what appeared to me to be every single movie playing on HBO until our entire hall closet was a movie library full of VHS tapes. It only occurs to me now to ask, was that normal?
    Aaron Parecki
    I knew someone who did this too! I remember the many bookshelves of VHS tapes in his home office, looked king of like library shelves

    Okay shiny black fingernails were fun but wow gel nail polish is really time consuming and messy to remove!

    Note to self: find out why my TSA pre check didnโ€™t work on this flight. Taking ALL my camera gear out for inspection really slowed things down for everyoneโ€ฆ
    Aaron Parecki
    ugh ugh ugh. Yeah probably it was a full name vs partial name mixup. If you notice it's missing on your boarding pass sometimes you can get the ticket counter agent to fix it for you before security.

    Thatโ€™s why Tesla is right about banning remote work. I know a guy who claims to work for Tesla but also has a gig at a Telcom, at a freight company, does a side job digging holes, sells medical implants AND trades crypto. But he spends most of his time shitposting on twitter.

    Similar position with @Delta - in terms of miles, the rollover alone was enough to reach Diamond 3 times already๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž
    But their spend requirement, $20K, will be VERY hard to reach.

    Alaska was very nice to continue my 2019 status through 2020, 2021, and 2022 despite me flying less than would qualify for even the first tier, but alas I think my time as a top tier flyer has come to an end ๐Ÿฅฒ

    I just made a list of all my expected flights in 2023 and I am just *barely* going to hit @AlaskaAir MVP Gold status (40K) by the very end of the year.

    How did I fly so much in 2019?? I hit Gold 75K status by April in 2019! ๐Ÿคฏ

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.
