I'm getting constant deja vu writing about SSI, as when I described/demoed/evangelized what would become AJAX in 2000. The words we use today to describe this transition period are from our current level of understanding, which will very quickly evolve into new words.
@msexcel Boston, More than a feeling is a good one!
@msexcel Oh long done. Let's hope the client approves! I do love dreaming up projects in excel.

@ashigupta You are doing good. I think what you saw there was privilege.
@zachaysan There are a bunch of online guides - I think EFF had links to them. I also co-wrote a consumer facing book on cyber security. You may wanna do a little research so you contribute your best talents/knowledge to the community. :-)
OK, so today is Friday. I'm wrapping up words for this 100+ page report on SSI. At least, I hope I can boil it down to 100 pages. It might be 150 pages now. I'm driving to Seattle today. Then waking up tomorrow and driving to Alaska. So ... work/life balance ROTFL.
Also, I'm totally working on the road, cause I have no concept of work/like "balance". I do what I want. Also, I'm visiting a volcano later today. Cause I love volcanoes. Also, the trees in the Northwest are off the hook.

Is the world more crazy or have I gone sane in the wilderness? I just can’t handle what I’m seeing online. A total disconnect from the mountains and tundra. If that is civilization, I don’t wanna live in it.
So I am sitting on a silent gorgeous lawn with a view of the mountain, lawns, clouds passing by and some person sat down less than 10 ft from me (I am the only person here) and started a loud cell call. W in the actual F people?!
@Kyle_DH Cool. I'll check it out when I am closer to civilization!
If they were with people, I would not be as pissed. I mean, yes, please enjoy the beauty... but do so with out ruining my enjoyment of it. Also, maybe I do not want to hear your conversation.
Hi @fredwilson I'm writing a report on self-sovereign identity (blockchain for identity) and would like to include your opinion (if you have one). Interested? (I'm a futurist/identity researcher that's researched future of money, transactions, cybersecurity.) Thanks!
@sblackmoore I'm seriously thinking of moving to Alaska for the summer.
@Kyle_DH OK, so I did a quick read, and these are my first thoughts. It sounds very complicated. How does it scale to lots of users? Is it for non-programmers? How do they contribute?
@Kyle_DH Second thing that comes to mind is what happens to work when you get paid for it. Doing "work" for fun/pleasure is one thing. We have different motivations. These motivations are contaminated once money is involved. (A challenge w commons.)
@Kyle_DH There is some research on this (how "work" becomes worse if it changes from unpaid to paid - because we shift how we internally value it. Before was non-monetary, after has a new monetary association), but I don't remember it offhand right now.
@Kyle_DH Another immediate question... where do these tokens spawn from? Are they a github token to be used across all repos/authors/projects? Does each repo/author have their own token? What about joint owned identities/repos.
@Kyle_DH I think it gets complicated very quickly... and that complexity doesn't map to the way my brain thinks about these kinds of things. The token idea is very technical and logical, but humans and projects are chaotic.
@Kyle_DH I don't see a goal as making humans more logical (we never will be and that is a feature), but we're not so good at utilizing our chaos/disorder in developing technology so well. @nntaleb uses the term "Antifragility" to describe something similar. It's a good term/concept.
@Kyle_DH Anyway, those are just some first thoughts... I'm sure I'll have more, especially after we talk more. You can only understand so well in tweets.
I've been traveling in Alaska, BC & the Yukon for a week. Have had some amazing wildlife encounters. About a week ago, we encountered a herd of bison (by far the most epic animal) & a bear on the road. Here's the footage: https://youtu.be/mkPRKNshNjA & https://youtu.be/3yxE9dTPHOw

@Kyle_DH How about it users reward developers for the features *they* want? That could be kinda cool, and would turn software development on its head.
@sblackmoore You will be welcome to come visit. Also, you are welcome to come visit the dome and bring your lovely partner in crime with you.
@TheMadPrepper You already are... stuffed with guts...
@Kyle_DH My pleasure. You caught me in the middle of a 2 week roadtrip... let's keep "talking". I'm happy to give more feedback and help workshop your idea.

Totally impressed with Canada and Canadians during this road trip. I especially like the designation of First Nations, the wildlife, the niceness, and Tim Hortons. The US can learn a lot from our Northern neighbor. I hope we do.
I’ll also add, I have always been impressed with my Canadian colleagues in the Identity space. They not only bring great perspectives, but are also moving the industry putting money into projects. It’s an honor to work with them in the space.

@Cannibal Fostering is amazing! Enjoy!
Gearing up for re-entry into the lower 48 tomorrow. I’m already dreaming about the wide open spaces of the Yukon, the rivers deep, and mountains wide.
@Cannibal When my guy crossed the rainbow bridge in Feb, I did a short stint of fostering (for about 6 weeks). In some ways, you can make a bigger impact fostering - getting them ready, feeling safe, happy, secure, for a successful new home. I loved it, but good to have detachment. Enjoy!

It's fun watching my identity friends at #Identiverse18 but I am sooo glad to be at home working. I'll see you out in public soon.
Today I am reminded how I love referencing friends and colleagues in my academic work! Even if we haven't spoken in years.

All I want to do is do research and get paid for it. Or become a hermit and never talk to anyone that isn't a dog.
Just to be clear, for the past couple years, I haven't talked a lot about what I'm researching until AFTER I've been deep in it for 6+ months. But I've got some big reveals coming up this summer in #cybersecurity & #selfsovereignidentity
My cycles are open and I'm looking for new clients in digital identity/security that need help understanding the space & developing future products. If you dare to think different and want to positively change the world, we'll get along great.
@SarahKSquire @idpro_org Please don't use the term "mafia" or other in-group terminology. Also make inclusive to people who can not meet in person or don't like to travel/attend all the conferences.
@SarahKSquire @idpro_org Also actively reach out and invite people. Like, I do not tend to like to join orgs and even as active as I am in the identity space I know how much I don't know. So how much identity do I need to know to be "in?"

I’m becoming more convinced that Greek philosophy is Tibetan Buddhist thought. (Along with Christianity as the traumatized result of Silk Road travel through the desert.) Allegory of the cave is basically emptiness.
Also gotta say, I’m pondering the result of no-I on my tech identity work. It’s leading me to some interesting technology architecture considerations.
Great curation of women in identity. Thanks for the signal boost @ChristopherA ! https://twitter.com/ChristopherA/status/1012436099648536576
Rock on, I just followed a lot of awesome women in identity and beyond... hopefully I'll tweet more about my work/research and not just about my current nomad life.
