My IndieWeb Journey

The slides from a lovely talk by Ana with an important message:

By having your own personal website you are as indie web as it gets. That’s right. Whether you participate in the IndieWeb community or not: by having your own personal website you are as indie web as it gets.

Outside of established organizations, I'm also going to make myself available to help anyone who needs a safe place to put their voice on the Internet outside of the centralized channels.

I'll work on formalizing this, but I'd like to offer help in setting up #websites and small applications for anyone who needs a place like that and doesn't have the means or know-how themselves.

Metal Slug Tactics launched today and I had a chance to review it over the weekend!

It captures the nostalgia of the series well while delivering great tactical gameplay in its own right. I had a good time with it!

I want to write my own service and I want to limit who can call post endpoints without implementing whole auth.
From security point would it be good enough to require to pass some key in post form and in server check if it is the same as the one specified in server?

The server would be put behind reverse-proxy so the request should be encrypted.

'The last thing I want to do is send GIANT FREAKIN ROBOT’s brilliant and talented staff to the unemployment lines on Christmas Eve. So, I’ve decided to shut down new article publishing on GIANT FREAKIN ROBOT now, rather than wait and continue to hemorrhage money as we stomp our way toward inevitable bankruptcy.'
