I can recommend reading "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" if you're interested in learning more about the philosophical and economic underpinnings that existed in the early days of open source, which still largely hold true toda

The human genome has 6 billion bases, not 6 billion bits. Each base can take one of 4 values, so significantly more data than binary. But maybe not enough of a difference to affect your point.

I don't see anything being demanded. I have several open source projects used by other people. I don't implement every requested feature, but requests are a great way to get ideas I might never have had on my own. If a developer w

> Ownership of identity This isn't currently a reality with ATProto, though they're making important progress over the status quo. Your identity in atproto is your DID. Your domain (if you use one) is just a handle. Currently a

As someone who has rolled my own cert updates and used Caddy, I much prefer the Caddy way.

IP certs improve a niche but interesting use case for me. I run a domain registrar that implements a simple OAuth2 protocol[0] for delegating domains/subdomains. I also have an open source tunneling tool called boringproxy that impleme

Yeah I recently started using Bitwarden with passkeys on a handful of sites and the UX is very good.

by apitman 2y ago
Agreed. Highly portable passkeys get you 90% of the way to where we want to be. I'm looking at implementing passkey support for my authentication library and considering only supporting major password managers because they have solid i

Cool, thanks. Do you have a link to these stats?
702.
by apitman 2y ago
How do you copy the link between devices? QR code?
703.
by apitman 2y ago
But that's only as a second factor right?
704.
by apitman 2y ago
That looks even better than I hoped. Is this free?

by apitman 2y ago
A quick search is indicating more like 30%, which honestly is way higher than I expected. Where are you seeing 60%?

I've wondered about doing this. Does WhatsApp let you send messages to arbitrary users via an API?
707.
by apitman 2y ago
I feel like there should be a way to implement this in a phishing-resistant way. Maybe instead of a QR code some sort of video stream that updates dynamically? That would at least be much more difficult for attackers to pass through to the

Sadly not enough people use password managers for it to be worth it for companies to target those flows.

What if the target device is a workstation or library desktop with no Bluetooth?

Not needing to remember passwords or use a password manager.

The emails in question are a third factor, not a magic login link. Even if they were, almost all email goes through third parties which are trusted implicitly. That's not great, but email is the only federated system in existence capab

Where does Google do this?

This has security and usability issues. NAT/CGNAT means a potentially large number of people can hijack your login.

I'm confused. How do you get the cookie from the original device to the other device?
715.
by apitman 2y ago
If you want to do this without JS just add a page with a "Click here to complete login" button that does the POST.

Perhaps the largest cause of wasted programming time is building things based on what sounds plausibly useful rather than what is actually useful. It's not an easy question to answer, but it needs to be asked constantly to avoid the tr

I think GP's point is that they feel Phoenix is simpler to use than alternatives, not necessarily that it scales better.

This is the article I sent people to for NAT traversal This may be the only way we ever have to build p2p apps. IPv6 doesn't have enough steam since NAT and SNI routing solve most problems for most people. And ISPs are very much not in

I've heard others say similar things. Bitwarden was a big UX upgrade for me coming from keepass. I haven't tried 1P. What do you prefer about?

Have you tried bitwarden?
