Scars.
A vista of Tahoma (Mt. Rainier) from a gorgeous rooftop terrace above the CENTRL coworking space in Capitol Hill, #Seattle
Wilhelm’s Portland Mausoleum (insert scream here 😱), overlooking the Willamette. Such an odd and singular place. Feels like something right out of an episode of Severance. I’m fascinated by the contrast between naked geometry and organic beauty.

Now employees no longer have to connect MCP servers manually and wait for a series of OAuth and login prompts. Once you log in to Claude from Okta, all the preconfigured MCP servers are already connected! It's not every day you get to improve both usability and security!
This is an application of the Cross App Access pattern, defined in the Identity Assertion JWT Authorization Grant being standardized in the OAuth working group at the IETF.
Seeing adoption from a massive player like Claude is a huge validation of the effort! It's been fantastic to work with the folks at Anthropic over the past year on this Paul Carleton and Den Delimarsky. And of course this wouldn't be possible without the collaboration with my co-authors on the spec Karl McGuinness and Brian Campbell!

I’ve started saving citrus peels and candying them. Easy to do and absolutely delicious. My favorite thing to do with them is make what I call an “Instand Old-Fashioned.” Two peels, three dashes of bitters, and 2.5oz of bourbon.
Still enjoying 007: First Light. It takes a bit for the story to pick up, but when it does it’s a genuinely fun game. It’s not perfect. The fight mechanics can be a bit clumsy and sometimes the missions are a bit heavy handed. Still, a promising start to what I hope becomes a long-lived series.
