This sounds like an interesting side project to work on 👀
Current status: looking around for a test server that gives you scratch accounts that you can then enable TOTP MFA for, so you can test TOTP MFA clients so you can understand them and the tricks you can pull for TOTP authentication. There are public expendable-account test servers for email, but I imagine the MFA TOTP case is more obscure (and maybe requires more backend work).

Super excited that it's only a couple of weeks to go to #DevOpsDays London! There are still some tickets available, hit me up if you want a discount 👀
It's such a great conference, regardless of the fact that I'm speaking 🤓
I am famously not a fan of JSON Web Tokens (JWT). Like most cryptography and security experts familiar with JWT, I would much rather you use something else if you can. I even proposed a secure alte…

On our last day, we were given a little packet of mixed seeds to plant when we got home. The results so far have been delightful 🥰 #BloomScrolling

worse than touch interfaces are touchscreen interfaces. not only are they even more annoying because they usually have badly calibrated touch, but they all but promise that your UI will look like dated fugliness one year in. he rants, trying to hit the pixelated water symbol on a TFT with wonky LED backlight on what looks like a new coffee maker.

I am helping out on project at work. I worked on the project when it started, and one decision we made was to store ADRs for design decisions local to the project within the repo Two years later, re-reading these is really helping me get up to speed on why some things work the way they do. In particular we had a mob exploration of the codespace and questions popped up which were answered by these ADRs.
It’s hard to believe that I’m from a generation that paid for ringtones when should this stupid glass rectangle make a single noise now, I’d smash it to bits.
i still maintain that misinformation/disinformation are terrible terms and we should all go back to saying "being wrong," "ignorant," and "lying"

Go’s <code>defer</code> and <code>t.Cleanup</code> have similar semantics, but there’s a good reason to prefer the use of <code>t.Cleanup</code> specifically in the presence of parallel subtests.

PSA: until you've experienced burnout, you are likely to underestimate how long it takes to recover. It's not a couple of months, it's 6-18 months for partial recovery, and maybe 3 years for full recovery (all depending on how bad it gets). The company burning you out will almost never support your recovery, mostly they'll drop you when you stop being productive. Nobody in business cares about your health but you, so be your own advocate, or suffer the consequences.

TIL the hard way that GitHub domain verification and GitHub Pages domain verification are separate things. Quite the footgun. I'm thankful for a security researcher who reached out about a hijackable subdomain rather than exploiting it. Post those responsible disclosure policies, friends!
