    “Installing most open source software today is equivalent to picking up a random thumb-drive off the sidewalk and plugging it into your machine.”

    😬 It’s painful but it’s kind of true.

    I want the iPad Pro to replace a computer so bad, but I just signed a PDF in Gmail, Gmail needed to save the file to Files, but can’t attach files *from* Files, so I had to download Google Drive and export the file from Files to Google Drive so Gmail can find it. 🤦‍♂️

    Googlers should be required to develop their apps on 5 year old computers with a network connection capped at 1mbps with 100ms latency. On this flight today I've tried to use Gmail, Google Flights, and Adsense, and they are either ridiculously slow or just don't work.

    welp, the rumors were true, Google did in fact buy FitBit: https://www.theverge.com/2019/11/1/20943318/google-fitbit-acquisition-fitness-tracker-announcement

    I *want* to switch to an Apple watch, but I can't until it has built-in automatic sleep tracking like the FitBit does!

    On AMP for Email by Jason Rodriguez

    February 24th, 2018

    Philosophically, I’m completely against Google’s AMP project and AMP for Email, too. I will always side with the open web and the standards that power it, and AMP is actively working against both. I’m all-in on a faster web for everyone, but I just can’t get behind Google’s self-serving method for providing that faster web.

  • How not to replace email (jamey.thesharps.us)

    I’d say the single most important lesson to take away here, for a technology project at least, is that interoperability is key.

    • Assume that no matter how amazing your new tech is, people are going to adopt it slowly.
    • Give your early adopters every chance you can to use your offering together with the existing tools that they will continue to need in order to work with people who haven’t caught up yet.
    • And if you’re building a communication tool, make it as simple as possible for others to build compatible tools, because they will expand the network of people your users can communicate with to populations you haven’t thought of and probably don’t understand.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and am the editor of several W3C specifications. I help people learn about video production and livestreaming.

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.
