    TIL booting to OSX "safe mode" disables the touch bar completely, so there is no way to press the escape key in safe mode

  • macOS 10.12 Sierra: The Ars Technica review | Ars Technica (arstechnica.com)
    "Here’s how it works (note that any time you see “Mac” below, the feature also works on iDevices running iOS 10):

    Text or some other item is copied on one Mac. The device then advertises over Bluetooth that it has something in its clipboard, just as it would do if it had content available via Handoff. Unlike Handoff, though, there's no visual indicator on other Macs or iDevices that anything is ready to copy.
    Hit paste on the other Mac. There's a pause that accompanies the action—nearly unnoticeable for a snippet of text or a link but long enough to prompt a little progress bar popup for larger images or big chunks of text—during which Mac #2 requests the contents of Mac #1's clipboard, and Mac #1 sends it over.
    Though both of your devices need to be signed in to the same iCloud account to trust each other, your data never appears to touch Apple's servers—like Handoff, all communication is local. This also means that Bluetooth and Wi-Fi have to be enabled on both devices, and both devices need to be within range of each other for copying and pasting to work. You won't necessarily need an active Internet connection."

  • Automatically generate your SSH config from AWS hosts - with tab-complete!

    As anybody who deals with multiple servers in multiple AWS accounts knows, it can be a real pain to maintain an up-to-date ~/.ssh/config file. Most solutions I've found for managing this assume you only have one AWS account. I've decided to share my setup for how I deal with managing my ssh config file that contains entries from 4 different AWS accounts, two Linode accounts, and some other random entries.

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.
