  • Totally passed the ham radio test in about 10 minutes of arriving. I only missed one question, and it was a stupid mistake. Luckily your call sign isn't based on how many questions you get right! 😉 Since they let you take the next level test for no additional charge, I gave it a shot despite having started reading the manual for that level only today. I still got 23/35 right and a passing score is 26! Looks like I'll be back next month to take that test! In about two weeks I'll get my call sign and will be able to talk on the air! 🎙

  • Just finished implementing support for receiving Private Webmentions in https://webmention.io and my website! If you're using webmention.io, you will notice a new "private" property when you list mentions or get callbacks. When you send a private webmention for a comment on one of my posts, you'll see the comment counter increment but you won't see the comment appear. When I log in, I will see the comment along with a little "lock" icon so that I know it's a private post.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write about OAuth, and am the editor of the W3C Webmention and Micropub specifications.

I've been tracking my location since 2008, and write down everything I eat and drink. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel.
