This is a really cool trick, but the nice thing about containers is that you can do this based on where the link is going rather than where the link is coming from.

This gives the site read access to your private (hidden) Github email address(es) - I think often developers implementing the Github API think this permission is needed to access your public email, & it gets requested unintentionally.

Looks like they're just leaning on Github as an auth provider without offering any alternatives. Most sites that do this offer a range of options, including normal email signup.

It still just works. Every single thing you could do without a package manager in 2009 still works fine without composer in 2023. All composer adds is the ability to easily use other people's code in your app. And that's not a new

That doesn't seem required nor proposed. The issue highlighted in the article seems to be with the broad classification of all wildfires by the EPA as “natural” or “uncontrollable” events - it's pretty clear that this isn't t
