In Clojure, maps don’t have either of the flaws highlighted in the article. They are neither opaque (they are self-describing with namespaces keys) nor mutable. As a result, they are very powerful and simple to use.

Dustin, Leo, and the rest of Electric team are brilliant, borderline geniuses. You can do absolutely magical interactive apps with Electric. However, I think, the catch is that the learning curve of Missionary and Electric is _very_ steep,

I prefer cakes, but I also like steaks and vegetable salads. On some days, I go for a pho soup, or pasta, or fried rice with chicken. It would be a shame to only have known cakes my entire life.

If an organization made a deliberate choice of not paying 5000 USD/mo for extra security, then security is less important for them than this amount of money — so they get what they pay for, and it’s their responsibility.

Those who really need SSO are willing to pay extra — why not charge them more for something that is useful for them?

I am not from the US, is a “class action lawsuit” supposed to be something scary? From the instances I’ve seen over the years, these lawsuits result mostly in tiny $22M fines and a slap on a wrist.

Why? As I understand it, the domain owner can assign the name you “trust” to any server already. Might as well trust all names by that domain owner.
