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!

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.)

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!

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!

Matt's tweet thread started with a "year of Linux on the desktop" quip, but if you do 95% of your work in a web browser, it's not really the year of LINUX on the desktop, it's the year of WEB on the deskop.

Which is not for me, but I'm glad it works for him!

So I'm flying to Fiji in a bit here. I got my boarding pass and had to do a double take. The airport code is NAN. Had JavaScript flashbacks. Pray for me.

It's fairly slow, but still cute

so I looked up that product, and somehow found a bunch of "related" products and now I am deep in the hole of researching laser engravers which are apparently not that expensive and are also very small now.

What are folks using for free/low cost notifications for personal projects? I know https://indigenous.realize.be uses https://pushy.me and until now I've used https://pushbullet.com, but given https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/01/yelaf/ I may need to replace it with something more substantial

I use https://www.prowlapp.com and https://pushover.net and haven't run in to any limits yet.

Yeah but then I never would've seen your reply complaining about it!

what, you mean you don't have a Twitter list of OAuth people?

@github any update on when users will be able to edit OAuth scopes?

This page says it's coming in the future https://developer.github.com/v3/guides/basics-of-authentication/#checking-granted-scopes

This page says it's currently possible https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/understanding-scopes-for-oauth-apps/#requested-scopes-and-granted-scopes

I tried a test case and it doesn't appear to be live yet.
