They mention in the video that they could ask a person to make the changes with Photoshop, but the reason they give is: "Then it would be that artist's work, not Rembrandt". That statement rubs me the wrong way a bit though,

I'm trying to figure out what your point is. Is it a criticism of the article? Are you sharing with us that you are clever? I'm trying to give it a generous interpretation, but I'm having a hard time. So it's not complic

It's pretty weird hearing anyone talk about CGI parameters these days, so perhaps that should also tell you something?

I'm a novice at security, but shouldn't the correct fix be to force the user to revoke the keys?

I just watched this video yesterday, and wow so surprised that they all tile! Not a math person at all (aside from a casual interest), but there was something about this that just made me intuit that it wouldn't always work. I also lov

I've provided data in my article of many instances where people got JWT wrong, including an example from Auth0. I wouldn't call myself a security researcher, but many who are have also said this. Your comment that it's '

If the simple thing is sufficient, don't do the complex thing. You say that JWT is the right answer for most scenarios, I think that's not true. Aside from revoking, there's risk in complexity and I did my best in providing e

This implies you would also need to know if the user ID exists before you use it, which means a look up. (because it might be 'regenerated' and no longer valid). If you take that one step further and just introduce disposable user

Yeah, I got this comment elsewhere too. I decided to not edit, because I think current standards at least strongly discourage session id's in urls, and this functionality is basically obsolete. Sessions requiring cookies felt like a re

This is a good thing. Businesses that rely on paying people salaries that keep them under the poverty line have no right to exist. Your business is exploitative and doesn't deserve to survive.

For a potential security breach at this level, if access was possible, and no records exists if it happened, you operate under the assumption there was a breach.

Honestly, it hasn't been. Probably helps that I run Linux, but would probably do the same on Mac. Managing that extra virtualization layer has always been more pain than just relying on services that are just always there.

You mean things like Linux, LibreOffice, Any browser? The things that they are copying are themselves also copies of earlier products. Airtable can be traced back to MS Access, DBase and I'm sure there's even older examples.

Owning your domain has the same advantage for element than it would for, for example email. If your company has their own domain for email, but hosts at Gmail, Google can one day decide to kick you off their platform. But, because you have

Yes, but Chrome is still google. If the left hand suggests using this Google product means privacy and trust, but the right hand still exploits you, I do think there's an issue. They can twist the words to be technically accurate, but

We are heavy into REST and HATEOAS. This, coupled with React SPAs has worked really well for us. The HATEOAS client we use/build has an cache/event system that will emit to subscribers (via react hooks) when a resource is stale, a

The issue with this thread is that it seems like an argument, but different people just have different sensibilities. Get the machine that suits _you_. Unless you want to run Apple OS because then you're not given choice.

The page addresses that there are other alternatives/supersets. I think the most common one that has decent adoption is JSON5. I would like to see why the author chose to do yet another format, vs adopt JSON5.
