  This is a really good explanation on what OAuth is. Also reminds me how bad things used to be with sites asking for your passwords for other sites!

  Let’s unbundle cable then make everyone buy cable anyway for broadband and also pay $6/mo for every channel yay.

  It started with writing a blog post about OAuth authentication flow. But hiding the client secret was something I wanted to solve first. But you know what? I just found a way to work without a secret. And 100% secure! New blog posts and code will be online soon (=next week)
  

  Not totally sure the context of this, but have you at least read the OAuth docs around this exact problem?
  
  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6819#section-5.3.1
  
  That's the reason OAuth uses a different flow for native apps and SPAs. I'll be curious to see your blog post!

  Open Wifi Security (Friday evening rant)
  
  1) Yes, at our @nordic_choice hotels we have open wifi as standard. No Client<->AP encryption (WPA/23), and no captive portal to logon to.
  
  Let me first explain some obvious reasons for doing so. (Often disregarded by infosec pros.)

  I ordered some printer ink 4 days ago. Got delayed, then a strange message yesterday that the business was closed for the… holidays? No big deal, if it was important I could get it somewhere else, but it’s a rare look into how hard it must be to spoil us on overnight shipping.
  

  Happy Chinese new year!

  This rocks. Backblaze donates $15,600 back to its libcurl open source library dependency, with this message.

  DUde, seriously, I can't get chat to work. I can't do live streams on YT if I can't chat.
  

  Yeah there's no chat on the website as far as I can tell. I only see it in the twitter app. but also it disappears real quick so it's pretty frustrating compared to youtube streams!

  Thanks everyone for showing up to the stream. Sorry about all the chat issues with twitter/periscope.
  
  We'll cancel any future streams here on twitter and next week we'll do the show from TEDD Live.

  In an attempt to sway the algorithm, I just configured my Twitter to mute everyone I'm following and only unmute 15 random followers each day.
  
  Do any of you do unusual things to give yourself more control over algorithmic feeds?

  I'm taking the trip from Montreal to San Francisco by train this weekend. It's been amazing; beautiful scenery, nice people, and I've had several stops for meals along the way. Best of all, I saved more than a tonne of CO2. #TrainsNotPlanes
  

  Okay this may have convinced me to take the much shorter 8 hour train from Portland to Vancouver for the next IETF meeting
