  1. a photo. My #2015bestnine: I pushed #harder, was inspired to be #better, #ran #faster than ever, and became #stronger with #yoga #inversions.

    9 finish of the Huntington Beach Surf City Half Marathon where I finally broke my personal record from my very first half marathon

    I’m grateful for many sources of inspiration in 2015, a few in particular that made a big difference:

    * My parents’s constant supportive encouragement to keep running at whatever level I could. From having my dad at November Project, and running two half marathons together, to my mom cheering me on.
    * My yoga instructors at Mission Cliffs teaching me confidence-building arm balances to the point of being inspired to try a pose I saw in the movie “Edge of Tomorrow”, learning it by watching YouTube videos, and only afterwards learning the actress from the movie was on wires while doing it!
    * My November Project friends near & far for long runs and (pop-up) workouts that always pushed me harder than I would have ran by myself
    * Communities of creative independents from @IndieWebCamp to @ScienceHackDay to @YxYY.
    * Meeting and getting to know a few very special people who set examples that encouraged me be the most epic & creative I could be: from workouts, work, writing, to personal website features, and daring to build a portable planetarium (award-winning!) at Science Hack Day! (tantek.com/t4dt1)

    A couple of weeks ago at brunch we each shared what one word described 2015 for each of us.

    Mine was “accelerate”, both physically and creatively.

    I ran faster (7:23 mile, 2:11:26 half marathon) and farther (30km) than I had ever in my life. From participating in worldwide @W3C meetings to co-organizing IndieWebCamps I ended up traveling tens of thousands more miles in a year than ever before.

    I found a new sense of what was possible when you focus on creating instead of critiquing, on coding instead of emailing. I built more ground-breaking features into my website in 2015 than any previous year thanks to the amazingly prolific & encouraging @IndieWebCamp community, and spending time with creative artists that raised the bar with their beautiful prolific output, and sheer joy expressed in so many sideprojects.

    Here’s to more of all that in 2016.

    Happy New Year!

  20. Physical exam yesterday.
    In one year: lower blood pressure, sub 60 bpm heartrate, lower %fat/lbs.

    Previously: tantek.com/2014/352/t4/physical-beat-expected-peak-expiratory-flow

    Blood tests will take a day or two.

    The positive changes make sense with the increasing fitness I’ve experienced nearly every week, and with improvements in nearly all the running races I’ve run. Also I knew I’d trimmed down a bit, but hadn’t realized I’d dropped 12 pounds since a year ago.

    One particular change that I didn’t expect this soon, and previously thought impossible, is that I seem to have overcome my asthma.

    My breathing capacity in general has increased, and I’ve reached the point where muscle soreness limits me in races before breathing does.

    This change became clear after I ran my first 7000+ feet elevation trail race this past September[1]. It was one of the physically hardest things I’ve ever done and forced me to relearn how to breathe while running. Upon returning, I found that breathing while running had become not only much easier, but was suddenly no longer holding me back.

    With that knowledge I was able to push my muscles harder than I’d ever done at the Berkeley Half Marathon[2] (though in retrospect I have a better appreciation of just how hard I’d pushed them and how that “minor muscle soreness” should be given more recovery time).

    It still takes me longer to warmup (especially in cold air). And for now I’m still recovering from hurting my knee four weeks ago. I’m taking it easy until it’s pain free, and looking forward to being able to my push limits again.

    My first video post on my site.

    I think this is evidence that low sleep (<2hrs in past 35hrs) reduces inhibitions similar to other methods, as I was nowhere near considering implementing video posts before a few hours ago, nor would I have considered it reasonable to even try building it (even with cross-site hosting), nevermind deploying it live, in about an hour.

    P.S. It’s a single video file that plays in Safari and Firefox, including on mobile! (iOS9.2 Safari and Firefox OS 2.6).

    Perhaps there is hope for HTML5 video after all.

  48. a jpg. What I packed for 5 days of #Mozlando.

    Everything fits into the #Boblbee backpack top right.

    All clothing fits into the re-purposed Puma shoe bag. I only brought four t-shirts (including yes a green (non-black) t-shirt) knowing I would acquire at least one more.

    Bottom row all fits into the Macbook Air 11" laptop sleeve, which itself fits into the slim profile Cyberdog bugbag (right side middle) for lightweight daypack use with room to carry (or acquire) a few more things. The Cyberdog bag itself, when empty, collapses thin enough to fit into the laptop slot in the Boblbee backpack for flight transport.

    This is an away-days (5) backpack packing record for me.

    Previous backpack packing records:
    * 2015-10-27 4 days / 3 nights international work trip to Japan
    * 2015-09-07 3 night work trip to Seattle:

  54. @benwerd never forget your own.
    If you neglect yourself, how can you help?
    Scratching your itches teaches valuing people over plumbing, empathy over architecture, and reduces abstraction arrogance.

    Too many technologists presume to help others, when they cannot even help themselves.

    Worse than not helping, they distract everyone else with painful user experiences, or shiny products that delight then die from neglect or acquishutdowns, since the technologist had no personal stake (itch) in them.

    Scratch your own itches to develop and grow your ability to empathize, to selfdogfood and fix problems before others are affected, and to give yourself a stake in your work, so you can empathize with everyone else, help them, and earn their trust.

  73. a photo. #AppleID update: 100% failure today on iPod Touch #iOS9.1
    Dropping #iMessage from /contact page.

    Previously: tantek.com/2015/327/t1/appleid-broken-currently

    In short, iMessage / FaceTime / iTunes keep signing me out on my iPod, like overnight while at home (no change in network etc.) and then failing to sign-in again.

    On the same device / OS / network:

    Facebook Messenger works fine.
    Google Hangouts works fine (but is very slow to startup).
    Skype works fine.

    When I open "Messages", I am prompted to sign in.

    I sign in with my Apple ID and Password, and then it sits for a while.

    I know it is doing something because if I deliberately enter the wrong password it very quickly alerts me that my Apple ID or Password is incorrect.

    Then after a while it comes back with the Verification Failed alert that is shown above.

    I try tapping “Sign In…” again, and again it sits for a while (no sign of progress).

    Sometimes after about 5-10 seconds it shows a

     (spinner) Signing in…

    Then it does that for a while (long enough for the iOS lock screen to come on — my Auto-Lock is set for 1 minute).

    Then sometimes it comes back with another prompt:

     Apple ID Verification
     Enter the password for “*********@tantek.com” in Settings.
     [ Not Now ][ Settings ]

    (Which, by the way, I’ve already done before, numerous times.)

    So I tap the [ Settings ] button, it switches to the Settings iOS app and then it erroneously prompts me with:

     Apple ID Password
     The password for “*********@tantek.com”  needs to be updated.
     [ _________________ ]
     [ Cancel ][ Sign In ]

    I say erroneously because when I sign-into appleid.apple.com there is no warning or prompt to change my password. This is a bug in iOS9.

    I enter my password and tap the [ Sign In ] button, which then greys out indicating it got my input, but still not showing any progress, just sitting there.

    Eventually it shakes the alert dialog left/right very quickly and this is where I get stuck today.

    Thus Apple ID is dead for me today and I have disabled both iMessage and Facetime from my /contact page.

    ==========================================
    10:30 Update:

    After restarting (power cycling) my
    * iPod touch (2 times)
    * home router (3 times)
    * DSL router

    Somehow I was able to sign-in with Apple ID in the Messages app on iOS. And then was rejected by the FaceTime app (why do they have separate sign-ins by default?!?), went to the Settings app, FaceTime options, entered my Apple ID and Password and then that worked.

    I have no idea why restarting ALL of those would somehow (temporarily) get Apple ID to work, and why every other messaging service (Facebook, Google Hangouts, Twitter Direct Messages, and Skype) had no problems at all.

    I’m very grateful for family, friends, and good health as usual. With one sister abroad far away, and a recent minor injury slowing me to walking, I take none of it for granted.

    I’m grateful for things that have made a signficant difference this past year:
    * practicing gratefulness daily
    * meeting and getting to know a few particularly inspiring independents
    * more and bolder creativity & making
    * pursuing ever greater physical challenges in running & yoga
    * better understanding the necessity of many forms of strength
    * perspective shift to building positive futures
    * letting go of and purging stuff not part of that

    Two months ago: 30:08 new PR!
    Previously: http://tantek.com/2015/210/t1/npsf-pr-wednesday-faster

    This past Sunday’s Berkeley half marathon went pretty well. I achieved my two primary goals of:
    * finish without injury (unlike last year)
    * new half marathon personal record (2:11:26)

    Monday I joined NPSF for early morning exercises, but no running.

    Tuesday I went to track with my dad with the intention of doing an easy version of whatever work out, and did. I ran slower than I usually would at track, focusing on smooth breathing & form, and actively listening/sensing how my legs were feeling. With each lap they loosened up and felt better but I still just gradually sped up, lengthening my stride for more of a stretching run.

    Finally on the last 400 I decided to try sprinting which apparently was a mistake. About 50 yards in something felt wrong in on the right side/back of my left knee so I peeled off and walked back. Then had difficulty climbing the steps.

    Oops. Lots of the usual RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) treatment the rest of Tuesday, knowing I was not going to be run-ready for several days at least.

    So no PR Wednesday for me today. Instead I did "300", the aforementioned 100+100+100 exercises. I had hoped to run it and get under 30 minutes, two months ago I cut over 2 minutes! Sub-30 will have to wait til next month.

    Doing better today (able to walk up the steps when I got home) but still skipping the Turkey Trot 5km tomorrow and likely hills Friday. My goal is now to focus on muscle recovery (that’s what it feels like, but getting it checked out Monday just in case), and exercises that do not impact my knee, to get ready for the 2015-12-05 Northface Endurance Challenge Marathon Relay. And to be ready for next month’s PR Wednesday (assuming I’m in town).

    If you txt, don’t see “Delivered”, I didn’t get it.
    FB Messenger is more reliable

    on
  81. Putting FB Messenger, Twitter DMs, ahead of iMessage/txt on my /contact page because AppleID is so broken currently.

    E.g. all of these:

    a photo.
    When I went to appleid.apple.com, it made me pick a new password, so I did and then was emailed the following message:


    The following changes to your Apple ID, **********@tantek.com were made on November 23, 2015 at 9:49:39 PM (GMT):

    Password

    If you did not make these changes or you believe an unauthorized person has accessed your account, you should change your password as soon as possible from your Apple ID account page at https://appleid.apple.com.


    No joke. The email warning about changes to your Apple ID that your “Password” has been changed, specifically says if you did not make these changes to **change your password**.

    Then when I went to login on my iPod Touch (iOS 9.1), I got yet another error message:


    Apple ID Locked

    Your Apple ID has been locked for security reasons. To unlock it, you must verify your identity.

    Unlock Account

    Cancel


    And I get two choices, either to “Unlock By Email” by resetting my password via email and changing it again (so repeat the above loop), or to “Answer Security Questions” which asks me for my Birthday and then fails with:


    Cannot Verify Identity

    One of these answers is incorrect.

    Ok


    And upon a second attempt says:


    Too Many Verification Attempts

    You have entered incorrect security information too many times. Try again later.

    Continue


    AppleID password changing, account recovery, etc. seems to be nearly completely broken in iOS9.1 which means you cannot depend on:
    * iMessage
    * Facetime
    * App Store

  89. a photo. Last Sunday I went for my last long run (11km) before the Berkeley Half this coming Sunday.

    My father took me up the hills high above our house, up hills that I’d only viewed from a distance, maybe been driven through as a child. It was surreal to run farther from home than I’d bicycled as a teenager.

    When you see a mostly blank red canvas on a @Starbucks cup are you upset because you felt entitled to what was there before?

    Or do you see an opportunity for free expression?

    Do you interpret such a passive absence of decoration as an active war on your assumed monoculture beliefs?

    Or do you see the emptiness as an encouragement for anyone to express their varied beliefs or whatever they are inspired to draw?

    Do you merely consume others’s art?

    Or do you brave putting pen to cup and create like no one is watching?

    This cup is from a trip my mom & I took to my hometown Starbucks (which wasn't there when it was my home) this past Saturday. Of course thoughts of #Paris were present so I drew an Eiffel Tower.

    Entitlement vs #opportunity.
    Monoculture consumption vs a #plurality of #production.
    Spoonfed content vs #freedom of #expression.

    Where do you stand?

    It’s your choice. You can still choose.

  92. a photo. ⚠️ STEEP GRADE

    This coming Sunday I’m running the Berkeley Half marathon which has some interesting challenges like both starting with a pretty big hill, and ending with 2-3 miles of an uphill grade that looks flat, just enough to make you wonder why it feels a lot harder than it should.

    Last year’s attempt didn’t go as hoped, finishing with knees on fire that could barely walk after. This year I’m coming back to face both that same physical challenge and also the psychological challenge of knowing what to expect.

    I took this photo at track 7A at Los Angeles’s Union Station last Friday, yet it reminded me of what I know to expect in the race, and all those Fridays since last year that I've run #NPSF #hillsforbreakfast in preparation.

    Bring it on Berkeley. I'm ready for you.

  110. CNN on BOS airport TV positive headlines
    CHINA & TAIWAN LEADERS HOLD FIRST TALKS SINCE SPLIT

    but then the negative headlines resumed:
    BRAZILLIAN VILLAGE SWALLOWED UP BY BURST DAM WATERS
    CONTANIMATED WATERS COULD HAVE LONG-TERM EFFECTS
    RECORD BREAKING NOVEMBER WARMTH
    OFFICERS CHARGED WITH FATAL SHOOTING OF 6-YEAR-OLD BOY

    and one more positive one:

    which I’d already heard about from instagram.com/woodspriteyoga:

    Still I was surprised to see any positive headlines on CNN, it was almost as if my SFO-BOS redeye slid into a slightly more hopeful timeline while I slept.

  117. Dear SF: Please go vote. You still have time.
    #1 issue is housing.

    YES: B C D K
    NO: A E F G H I J

    More: Measures in San Francisco this election year are very much dominated by various (mostly well intentioned but misguided to counter-rational) attempts to improve our city's housing situation (too few housing units for the growing number of people who are moving to San Francisco).

    Yes we need to make changes. The key changes are about enabling the development of more housing as soon as possible in the areas of town that can accomodate it, like the SOMA and China Basin / Mission Rock districts.

    There is precisely one local measure that will help this situation:

    YES on D: Increase the height limits for 10 of 28 acres in Mission Rock.


    Here is a summary of my conclusions on all the measures & offices:


    NO on A: A is a very expensive housing bond that will benefit very few people. The cost/benefit ratio is poor, and will put unnecessary faith/weight/stress on a lottery system. Lottery systems for housing are not the answer, encouraging more market-competitive housing developments by the private sector is the answer.

    YES on B: This is a simple bugfix to city employee parental leave benefits.

    YES on C: This makes lobbyists/activits more transparent, which seems like a relatively obviously good thing.

    YES on D: Increase the height limit for 10 of 28 acres in Mission Rock. Honestly this should be something the city government could do on its own, but due to a height-limit micromanagement measure that unfortunately passed in a previous election, we have to vote on these one at a time, on the annual election cycle (thus effectively slowing housing development at best, putting it at risk at worst).

    NO on E: Horribly written and ill-thought out measure that shows a complete lack of understanding of how about open comments via the internet are and will be.

    NO on F: This is a hotel lobby sponsored measure that is basically Anti-AirBnB, and has been deceptively marketed/packaged as a fairness measure. It is the opposite. If anything we need to do *more* to encourage a variety of income sources for independents and individuals, not ban the few successful such income innovations.

    No on G: This measure seems unnecessary, though I don’t have a strong opinion on it. Still, law is (like) code, if it does not seem necessary, it is better to vote against it. If it’s truly worthy, it can be brought up again.

    No on H: Similarly.

    NO on I: This is the absolutely worst written measure I have seen in my time living in San Francisco. With the intention of "helping" the housing situation, it does exactly the opposite. Slowing housing development will only cause rental/housing prices to go up faster.

    No on J: Seems unnecessary.

    YES on K: This measure has the potential of expanding the amount of housing in the city using existing buildings.


    For MAYOR, there is a lot of frustration with our current (incumbent) mayor Ed Lee for various reasons. He has however done enough things right (his statement / record speaks for itself) that people are more likely to support / vote for him as the "safe" vote than vote for any of the alternatives, which, ironically means that you can "safely" vote for all alternatives for your three choices, as a "protest" vote.

    For SHERIFF, there is MUCH more frustration with the incumbent, for reasons well documented even on Wikipedia, and here it is more likely (and thus more important) to ranked vote for both challengers (either order 1 and 2), and not the incumbent. If you feel obligated to vote for a third non-incumbent choice I suggest you write-in Yosemite Sam.

    City Attorney, District Attorney, and Treasurer are running unopposed.
