"Your account is now unlocked" in <1hr! If your new @Twitter account is locked, file a support request, explain what you did immediately beforehand, and reply to the email confirming your support request. Hopefully you’ll also get a similarly prompt response. Full support message resolution: “ Hello, Your account is now unlocked, and we’re sorry for the inconvenience. Twitter has automated systems that find and remove automated spam accounts and it looks like your account got caught up in one of these spam groups by mistake. This sometimes happens when an account exhibits automated behavior in violation of the Twitter Rules (https://twitter.com/rules). Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. Please do not respond to this email as replies will not be monitored. Thanks, Twitter Support ” I appreciate @Twitter’s both prompt response (under an hour is quite reasonable for a service as large as Twitter), and immediate apology. However I don’t believe the "when an account exhibits automated behavior in violation of the Twitter Rules” excuse at all. Here is what I did: * I created the account @PostTypeDisc (for a convenient shorthand and status updates for the @W3C @SocialWebWG Post Type Discovery specification that I’m editing) with a new email address * I confirmed the account via the email confirmation link * I changed a few preferences (to reduce ads, emails) * I edited the profile to add a short bio from the spec abstract, location of "World Wide Web", and URL to the specification * I followed @W3C * I followed @SocialWebWG * Account was automatically locked by Twitter I did it all from a web browser, using Twitter.com directly. Nothing automated, and none of those actions violate any Twitter Rules. I was setting it up and following a few other accounts before writing the first tweet, which seems like a perfectly reasonable pattern. I think this incident indicates the presence of bugs in Twitter’s “automated systems” and hopefully they’re looking into it. I’m likely not the only person that “got caught up in one of these spam groups by mistake”, and I’d expect the typical user to just give up at that point and go back to another social media silo rather than take the time to file a support request (with any hope of a positive resolution). Regardless, both opening and closing the resolution with a direct unconditional apology is good form, and good service design.

35:07 NPSF PR Wednesday this morning, 0:37 slower than Aug, including ~1min to reti(ght)e(n) shoes. Technically I was slower this month than last time (2 months ago), yet actual running time was faster since I stopped to retie my right shoe that came untied literally on the first straight, after having run 2.2 miles to Alta Plaza without any sign of trouble. At that point I wasn’t going to take any chances so I spent the additional time to tighten the laces and retie both shoes. I was hanging with the pack until then (which was a good feeling, felt strong going into the first hill), but then never caught back up. I didn’t feel exhausted like last time. This was despite my mind being busy with too many thoughts last night (despite two yoga sessions earlier!) keeping me awake past midnight (slept 4-5 hours), despite literally physically getting into bed by 22:00. Woke up with slight soreness in my right knee. Iced it a bit, which helped, a bit. Took some ibuprofen preventatively, which may also have helped, a bit. However it was still sore, in that low-grade way that makes you not want to push as hard. That’s an annoying regression from two months ago, and has been on/off enough the past few weeks that I’m going to go see someone about it. On the positive side: * breathing seemed fine (still had to hike most of the West hill straight) * left knee (the one I injured last November) was still totally fine * actually ran the last short hill straight before steps (every lap) Still got work to do, still going to stubbornly keep coming back and doing the best I can.

This raven perched quietly, watched me run up the steep Fox Trail, and didn’t flinch when I stopped to observe him. He looked at me briefly as if he wanted to tell me something, then looked eastward and continued staring that way as I continued up the trail in the opposite direction. #raven #perch #perched #seenonmyrun #fromwhereirun #run #trailrun #tennesseevalley #foxtrail #marin

It's weekend moments like these that help me get through the work week. Tuesdays are often challenging, perhaps the day of the week when I most often question if I did enough professionally, tried hard enough, helped colleagues as much as I could. When that happens, I try to remember moments like this photo. #SF #palaceoffinearts #sky #architecture #water #peace #moments

Find it and you’ll find a rare VORTAC^1 (ht: @therunetarian) #latergram #nofilter Hint: find the view from the previous photo (tantek.com/2016/290/t1/bridge-bridge-view-trail-run-sfrc) then #lookdown around your feet and be careful not trip on a short metal flag in the ground with C-121 etched into it. For the previous “mark” (tantek.com/2016/284/t3/coyote-ridge-2-horizontal-control-mark) I found a single online result (until I blogged about it, then more showed up afterwards). This time, I tried searching for "Corps of Engineers" "Survey Mark" "C-121" https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Corps+of+Engineers%22+%22Survey+Mark%22+%22C-121%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 and got two results, a PDF from Washington State Legislature, and an Internet Archive of a periodical index, neither applicable. I tried searching for "Corps of Engineers" "Survey Mark" Marin 1957 (all phrases words on the physical mark itself) https://www.google.com/search?q="Corps+of+Engineers"+"Survey+Mark"+Marin+1957 and got two pages of results, none of them about this mark in particular, but I did find a fascinating PDF of a 1980 document: “Input Formats and Specifications of the National Geodetic Survey Data Base / Volume I. Horizontal Control Data” https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/FGCS/BlueBook/pdf/Chapter1-2-3--1980.pdf So for the next person that comes across this survey mark, here’s the full text, roughly in the order and phrases intended on the mark: CORPS OF ENGINEERS – U.S. ARMY SURVEY MARK $250 FINE OR IMPRISONMENT FOR DISTURBING THIS MARK MARIN 30TH ENGR GP STATION DESIGNATION AGENCY YEAR 1957 (Known typos: CORP OF ENGINEERS) According to Google Maps (dropping a pin in satellite view) the latitude longitude coordinates of this Marin County mark are: Latitude: 37.8556 degrees (N) Longitude: -122.5221 degrees (W) Altitude: 1040 feet I need to get a GPS watch (or an https://aaronparecki.com/) to record more precision. No luck searching on geocaching.com/mark either — nearest benchmarks they had were 1.3 miles away. ^1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VORTAC https://irs2.4sqi.net/img/general/width960/476_V-CavS2umxuwVizihzcjj7e9ET4mbs6HDd9POIgENbw.jpg https://foursquare.com/v/faa-vortac/4e1268dcae602afe96c5efc5?openPhotoId=58026574d67ce59c29d6b37b #seenonmyrun #trailrun #corpsofengineers #army #armycorpsofengineers #surveymark #permalink #marin #ca #gottacatchemall

Then instead of turning right onto Miwok trail, I decided to run uphill just a little further to the peak that was “right there” and was rewarded with this view and another survey marker. Like last week, I was alone after the first few miles (though the route leader kept running back to make sure I took the correct forks, up until the fork up to the radio tower, then found me again when I rejoined the route). After taking photos here I ran back down and took the Miwok trail turn, first saw Lucci running the other way with a friend, then within minutes, @poleary87 with his running buddy. Saw just one hiker the rest of the way on Miwok until the turn onto Old Springs Trail where I saw some ~13 mile route runners, where our long & “short” routes of the day merged. Took the downhill at an easy pace, until @mitchwestwood ran up behind me and as you might guess surprise hugged me (neither of us breaking stride, still not sure how we balanced that), before passing me with Katy Kunkle. I decided to keep pace, and raced downhill keeping up with both of them, passing several other runners on the way, until the downhill portion ended at the Tennessee Valley trail head parking lot when I slowed to my own pace. Took the Rhubarb trail (parallel to the road) as usual with its eucalyptus forest and made it back to SFRC with a total trail running time of 1:46:50, ~15s/km faster than last week. I'll take it. #heysweatdaily #fromwhereirun #radiotower #baybridge #sunny #sf #sanfrancisco #goldengatebridge #marin #hills #run #trails #trailrun #stormclouds #outruntherain #latergram

Searching for "National Geodetic Survey" I did find http://www.ngs.noaa.gov which has a giant blue and red text-as-an-image link “Looking for Bench Marks?” which sounded close as anything else on their home page to “Horizontal Control Mark”. That link goes to: http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/datasheets/ (Survey Marks and Datasheets) Which has a “Search By” section with a “Station Name(s)” option which sounded promising. http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/ds_desig.prl An ancient Perl CGI "web app" reminiscent of the 1990s web (when was the last time you saw a "Reset" button on a web form? Amazing.) I tried searching for Coyote Ridge and got a beautifully developerific error: ERROR - INPUT INCOMPLETE. Go back and try again. In a PRE with FONT SIZE +3 no less. Went back, chose California from the select list, and clicked Submit. Got a result in another SELECT list (no change in URL, classi CGI perl), selected it, and clicked Get Datasheet. That provided me with “The NGS Data Sheet” which I am unable to link to because it is still at the same ds_desig.prl URL as above. However here’s some info copy / pasted from that sheet: HT3417 DESIGNATION - COYOTE RIDGE 2 RESET HT3417 PID - HT3417 HT3417 STATE/COUNTY- CA/MARIN HT3417 COUNTRY - US HT3417 USGS QUAD - POINT BONITA (1993) HT3417 HT3417 *CURRENT SURVEY CONTROL HT3417 ______________________________________________________________________ HT3417* NAD 83(1992) POSITION- 37 51 59.28592(N) 122 33 08.78413(W) ADJUSTED HT3417* NAD 83(1992) EPOCH - 1991.35 HT3417* NAVD 88 ORTHO HEIGHT - 314.8 (meters) 1033. (feet) VERTCON Where NAVD 88 links to: http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/datums/vertical/index.shtml#NAVD88 Lots more in the data sheet, with format details explained in http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/ds_lookup.prl?Item=DSDATA.TXT for those that may be curious. The geocaching page has its own copy of the data sheet at https://www.geocaching.com/mark/datasheet.aspx?PID=HT3417 which had slightly different (out of date?) numbers. Both data sheets and the geocaching page did agree about the altitude or height of the marker at 1033 feet, which is how I determined the 1033' for my previous post.

I could see SF and Sutro tower, tiny in the distance. #latergram #nofilter The SFRC route for that day was ~13 miles, more than I was ready for. Another group went for the 7.25 mile Tennessee Valley trail run to the beach and back. I felt stronger than last week, yet still fell behind. I was alone when I reached the Fox Trail fork and decided to choose my own path (having run it once before with @micheleperras). This time I kept running uphill to the next apparent peak, behind which there was one more which is when I reached this peak. After taking photos I ran back down to Tennessee Beach, then back to SFRC in Mill Valley. 2:10:48 round trip. My farthest trail run in 18+ months and it felt good. #saturday #sfrc #trail #run #coyoteridge #peak #solorun

More on iOS: I strongly recommend upgrading ASAP to iOS 9.3.5 before you’re prompted for iOS 10, AKA your device prompts you to publicly beta test iOS 10. Especially if you have an "older" devices like iPhone 5 or iPod 5 touch, I have heard bad (slower, more batter consuming) things about iOS 10. I just updated my iPod 5 Touch to iOS 9.3.5, seems to be ok once you dismiss all the alerts/prompts/dialogs attempting to upsell you on various iCloud options etc.

When iOS says: “Turning off Photo Stream will delete all Photo Stream photos”, it is LYING 🔥 E.g. any photos in your Camera Roll will NOT be deleted. I know this because I just did turn off “My Photo Stream” in iCloud prerences in iOS. (yes, after backing up all my photos to my laptop) and clicked the scary “Delete” button on the resulting dialog (with aforementioned message). Not a single photo was deleted. Not one. The only thing deleted was the seemingly superfluous “Photo Stream” album in the lists of albums. All photos still in the Camera Roll. Liar, liar, UI pants on fire 🔥 This alert wording is scare-UI designed to make you afraid of turning off iCloud “My Photo Stream” syncing (ships on by default), because of course, taking photos/videos which get synced to your iCloud is the fastest way to fill up your “free” iCloud storage, and thus make your iOS device prompt you to pay to upgrade your iCloud account. That filling up your iCloud storage also prompts another scare-UI: “Not Enough Storage This iPod touch cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available. You can manage your storage in Settings. [Close] [Upgrade Storage] ” to again, pay to upgrade your iCloud account. This feels fairly sinister, such fear-based UI design seemingly incentivized by an attempt to turn every iOS user into a paying iCloud subscriber. Screenshots to follow.

@hondanhon yes, sorry to miss you as well. Safe travels and til next time our paths cross.

Wandering around SE Portland a bit. #xoxofest folks still here, @t me in our Slack if you’re around!

Thank you @xoxo @waxpancake @andymcmillan. As always, amazing. Definitely deserve a year off. #xoxofest

I’m also matching $1k donations to #xoxofest JOIN fundraiser: give.xoxofest.com Thanks @hondanhon and anonymous matching donors for setting a good example. The JOIN fundraiser is to help Portland homeless families into permanent housing. XOXO Festival represents one of the most intentionally community-positive conferences and efforts I’ve seen, strongly and directly confronting difficult & challenging issues both for the conference itself (like diversity & inclusiveness), and for the actual physical community surrounding the conference (local homeless). The example set by Andy & Andy and the entire XOXOFest crew is amazing in all aspects of how to create, run, and iterate a conference. So much care, kindness, attention to detail, and understanding of broader context. If you run a conference, look at all the details of how XOXO was done. If you participated in XOXO Festival, please consider giving to broaden its positive impact. give.xoxofest.com

#xoxofest FC: This thing that you’ve made, it's from you, and feels like you, but it really isn’t you. It goes out there, and it’s not yours anymore. Your thing becomes our thing. Will you go alone? Or shall we go together? @frank_chimero

#xoxofest FC: If what you make goes anywhere, it’s because other people carried it.

#xoxofest FC: We need to make sure it is not taboo to talk about the problems of success if we want to be successful.

#xoxofest FC: Critical: 1. How do we create a cultural awareness that attention doesn’t usually lead to money? 2. How do we produce more equitable platforms where attention does equal proportionate money? 3. How do we build up services that act as a sidekick instead of a tollbooth? 4. How do you honor that audiecne without letting them have too much power over you?

#xoxofest FC …long list of artists who decided to keep their day job to fuel their creative practice. If your income isn’t tied to your capacity or ability to make a certain kind of work, it means you don't have to take any shit from anybody. It means you can just make whatever you want to make. And what's more indepdnent than that?

#xoxofest FC: How can we be independent together? What are ways that people can work with each other? * Employment - work for * Collaboration - working with * Community - working beside None of these three are mutually exclusive. Each combination produces its own kind of independence.

#xoxofest FC: independence: control, equity, transparency, freedom vs: stability, predictability, resources, coherence

Great #xoxofest 2016 closing talk by @frank_chimero. Took some notes, posting after the fact.

#xoxofest ”Targeted advertising is […] surveillance. Where there is surveillance, power imbalances will be exploited.”

#xoxofest @sarahjeong: ”The media industry is unwittingly allowing evil [malvertising] to befell their users.”

#xoxofest @sarahjeong "Ads endanger you. [Their] tracking cookies will betray where you’ve been what you’ve looked at"

#xoxofest @sarahjeong confronts journalism vs ad revenue vs ad blockers. and: “Please don’t turn off your adblocker.”

“We can’t all have access to young people’s blood.” @jennschiffer #xoxofest re Peter Thiel & parabiosis #WTF Learning about this for the first time from a clever satirist, then finding out it’s not an Onion article: * http://www.inc.com/jeff-bercovici/peter-thiel-young-blood.html * http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/08/peter-thiel-wants-to-inject-himself-with-young-peoples-blood * http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/2016/08/peter_thiel_s_desire_to_live_forever_exposes_some_bizarre_and_pricey_clinical.html How. What. This seems like the opposite of working on stuff that matters. The opposite of empowering others. Of lifting up those less fortunate than yourself.

2. Write about something you have literally no idea about. Good way to get 500 guys try to explain it to you for free.

#xoxofest: Two simple tricks to satire by @jennschiffer: 1. Write about something you have only a vague idea about.

Your good ideas might be bad and bad ideas might be good. You won’t know until you build them. @SimoneGiertz #xoxofest

#xoxofest: “Your ideas may be smarter than you.” @SimoneGiertz Good start to separating ideas from sense of self.

#xoxofest 2016: venues are all ages & ADA compliant; impoved inclusivity. women 50% of attendees, majority of speakers

really proud of #XOXOfest for opening with up-front discussion of impostor syndrome, and helping local homeless.

Quiet Labor Day weekend. Perhaps enough for sleep & cycles to resync after many miles. Brief calm before this month's travels

Jess (who has actual yoga teacher training) asked me to show her class what I showed her. She asked me to do the same this year at #yxyy004. The class was much bigger this year than last, and several people said afterwards that they were able to do crow and/or side crow for the first time! A few gave me constructive feedback as well. The entire experience convinced me to take the next step and pursue teacher training myself. I'm looking into options, and time+opportunity willing, I want to complete 200 hours before the next #yxyy. #yoga #teacher #learning #acehotel #palmsprings

Every one has been distinctly different. #latergram #nofilter If I could use one word to distinguish this year, it would be “intense”. The past year has seen stressful events, personally, to friends & family, locally, in the country, and across the world. Some of these things we can positively affect, some more than others. This year in particular I was grateful I could both help a good friend believe they should go, and take care of just enough details so they could go. #yxyy004 #acehotel #palmsprings #wristbands #fourforfour #grateful

The past couple of years I've organized morning runs, but in local loops on the streets of Palm Springs. This year I decided to level it up (so to speak) and planned a trail run up the nearby picturesque hill. In addition to posting it I talked a few friends into meeting up at the Ace Palm Springs lobby well before sunrise. After a brief warmup run to the base of the hill, we entered the north end of the Lykken trailhead, speed hiked and ran far enough to get 500' above Palm Springs. The desert sunrise was amazing. The temperature rose quickly with the sun. We drank the water we brought with us, and swiftly ran back down the hill. We grabbed iced coffees (or various blends) at the cafe across from the Ace and exchanged the photos we’d taken. #sunrise #fromwhereirun #hillsforbreakfast #trail #trailrun #run #runprogram #heysweatdaily #desert #yxyy004 #palmsprings
