From @ScottGottliebMD’s Uncontrolled Spread, p 288. Socialized medicine kicked American healthcare’s ass often, even in the design of practical clinical trials.
Americans pay too much for too little health care.

I haven’t been able to find any prediction markets with a bet on when monkeypox will establish a confirmed animal reservoir in North America. In this case, reverse zoonosis, “zooanthroponosis”, establishes a zoonotic reservoir so monkeypox becomes endemic.
My guess: 30 Jun 2023.

In red states, hospital ethics committees now decide when pregnant patients are close enough to death to justify an abortion.

"content": {
"text": "One of the things I love about building with IndieWeb building blocks is that (sometimes through more work than anticipated) you can swap out pieces of your site without (much) disruption because the seams between building blocks are well specified.\n\nSo, this is me documenting how I replaced my IndieAuth setup to stop leaning on Aaron\u2019s IndieAuth.com (which has been on the verge of retiring any day now for some years).\n\nPlease excuse this long and rambling post. Feel free to skip around!\n\n\n\nWhat is IndieAuth?\n\nAt a high-level, IndieAuth is a way to sign in using your website as an identity.\n\nWithout digging too deeply into the plumbing, you start by updating your website\u2019s homepage with some extra header info that says \u201cmy IndieAuth service is over there\u201d. From there, you can sign into services that support IndieAuth (like the IndieWeb wiki, the social feed reader service Aperture, and more. And you can use your IndieAuth server to protect your own services, such as a Micropub server that can create new posts on your site.\n\nWhy switch?\n\nI\u2019ve been using indieauth.com as my IndieAuth setup since late 2016 because it was easy to set up, because it uses something called RelMeAuth to let me sign in using services I already trust (like GitHub).\n\nHowever, indieauth.com has been growing stale as the IndieAuth spec has evolved. indieauth.com\u2019s maintainer has been discussing replacing it since at least 2017.\n\nThe inciting incident for my switch was looking at OwnCast - a self-hostable video streaming service with attached chatroom. OwnCast\u2019s chat allows using IndieAuth to sign in, which sounded great to me, but OwnCast\u2019s implementation wasn\u2019t expecting indieauth.com\u2019s old-style response format.\n\nWhy set up my own?\n\nThere are a bunch of IndieAuth server implementations listed on the IndieWeb wiki. However: simplest of them (selfauth + mintoken) are now out of date with the spec and haven\u2019t been replaced, yet. Others tend to be built into other CMSes like WordPress. A couple of standalone servers exist but are in languages I am not comfortable working in (hello Rust and Go) or have deployment requirements I wasn\u2019t thrilled about supporting (hello Rails).\n\nI found Taproot/IndieAuth on this page and that looked promising - a PHP library intended to be deployed within a fairly standard PHP web app style (\u201cany PSR-7 compatible app\u201d).\n\nI knew this would be some work but it sounded promising and so I began the week-ish long process of actually writing and deploying that \u201cPSR-7 compatible app\u201d built on taproot/indieauth.\n\ntl;dr say hello to Belding\n\nBelding is an \u201cPSR-7 compatible\u201d PHP web app that provides a standalone IndieAuth endpoint for a single user with a simple password form for authentication.\n\nI would love to go into the process and pitfalls of putting it together, but instead I\u2019ll link to the README where you can learn more about how it works, how to use it, its limitations, etc.\n\nSwitching costs for an IndieAuth server\n\n1. Tell the World\n\nFirst up, you\u2019ll need to update the headers on your site. I switched my authorization_endpoint and token_endpoint to my new server from indieauth.com. Since I\u2019m updating to support the latest spec, I also added the indieauth-metadata header (which should eventually replace the other two).\n\nNow that your site is advertising the new IndieAuth server, you will likely experience logouts or weird access denied reponses everywhere that your site has been used with IndieAuth.\n\n2.

I believe it should be easier for folks to spin up and control their own IndieWeb building blocks where possible!\n\nIt\u2019s also become clear to me that there are some user- and developer-experience holes around setting up relying apps. The auth requirements for token introspection, for example, means you need a way to manage access for each \u201cbackend\u201d that you have that relies on IndieAuth to protect itself!\n\nLong story short (too late) I am finally able to sign into OwnCast server chat using my domain. \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude05",
"html": "<p>One of the things I love about building with <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/Category:building-blocks\">IndieWeb building blocks</a> is that (sometimes through more work than anticipated) you can swap out pieces of your site without (much) disruption because the seams between building blocks are well specified.</p>\n\n<p>So, this is me documenting how I replaced my <a href=\"https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/\">IndieAuth</a> setup to stop leaning on <a href=\"https://aaronparecki.com/\">Aaron\u2019s</a> <a href=\"https://indieauth.com/\">IndieAuth.com</a> (which has been on the verge of retiring any day now for some years).</p>\n\n<p>Please excuse this long and rambling post. Feel free to skip around!</p>\n\n\n\n<h2>What is IndieAuth?</h2>\n\n<p>At a high-level, IndieAuth is a way to sign in using your website as an identity.</p>\n\n<p>Without digging too deeply into the plumbing, you start by updating your website\u2019s homepage with some extra header info that says \u201cmy IndieAuth service is over there\u201d. From there, you can sign into services that support IndieAuth (like the <a href=\"https://indieauth.org/\">IndieWeb wiki</a>, the social feed reader service <a href=\"https://aperture.p3k.io/\">Aperture</a>, and more. And you can use your IndieAuth server to protect your own services, such as a <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/Micropub\">Micropub server</a> that can create new posts on your site.</p>\n\n<h2>Why switch?</h2>\n\n<p>I\u2019ve been using indieauth.com as my IndieAuth setup since late 2016 because it was easy to set up, because it uses something called <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/RelMeAuth\">RelMeAuth</a> to let me sign in using services I already trust (like GitHub).</p>\n\n<p>However, indieauth.com has been growing stale as the IndieAuth spec has evolved. indieauth.com\u2019s maintainer has been <a href=\"https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2017-12-17#t1513485617181300\">discussing replacing it since at least 2017</a>.</p>\n\n<p>The inciting incident for my switch was looking at <a href=\"https://owncast.online/\">OwnCast</a> - a self-hostable video streaming service with attached chatroom. OwnCast\u2019s chat allows using IndieAuth to sign in, which sounded great to me, but OwnCast\u2019s implementation wasn\u2019t expecting indieauth.com\u2019s old-style response format.</p>\n\n<h3>Why set up my own?</h3>\n\n<p>There are <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/IndieAuth#Server_Implementations\">a bunch of IndieAuth server implementations listed on the IndieWeb wiki</a>. However: simplest of them (selfauth + mintoken) are now out of date with the spec and haven\u2019t been replaced, yet. Others tend to be built into other CMSes like WordPress. A couple of standalone servers exist but are in languages I am not comfortable working in (hello Rust and Go) or have deployment requirements I wasn\u2019t thrilled about supporting (hello Rails).</p>\n\n<p>I found <a href=\"https://github.com/taproot/indieauth\">Taproot/IndieAuth</a> on this page and that looked promising - a PHP library intended to be deployed within a fairly standard PHP web app style (\u201cany PSR-7 compatible app\u201d).</p>\n\n<p>I knew this would be some work but it sounded promising and so I began the week-ish long process of actually writing and deploying that \u201cPSR-7 compatible app\u201d built on taproot/indieauth.</p>\n\n<h2>tl;dr say hello to Belding</h2>\n\n<p><a href=\"https://git.schmarty.net/schmarty/belding\">Belding</a> is an \u201cPSR-7 compatible\u201d PHP web app that provides a standalone IndieAuth endpoint for a single user with a simple password form for authentication.</p>\n\n<p>I would love to go into the process and pitfalls of putting it together, but instead I\u2019ll link to the <a href=\"https://git.schmarty.net/schmarty/belding#user-content-belding\">README</a> where you can learn more about how it works, how to use it, its limitations, etc.</p>\n\n<h2>Switching costs for an IndieAuth server</h2>\n\n<h3>1.
