A while back I wrote about minimising my attack surface by utilising default deny and whitelists in Nginx. Now I've gotten into the weeds with authentication and deployed an SSO (Signle sign-on) service on my selfhosted infrastructure. What is Authentik? Authentik is a SSO (Single Sign on) provider, much like with Google's services you sign in once and then you can access all your services. This has been a big bugbear with selfhosted ....

Go 1.18 brought us great new features, such as generics, fuzzing and workplaces. It also has a new alias for interface{} to a more understandable any.

Remember when we all used to commit secrets to source code repositories? In the bygone software engineering paleolithic era, public cloud key management services didn't exist and neither did OSS solutions like Vault. Managing sensitive credentials has gotten much better over the years, and there's very little reason to ever even store passwords or tokens in plaintext files any more. Somewhere in-between the Big, Burly Public Cloud solu....

At some point when implementing HTTP APIs, just logging “error” and returning an empty response doesn’t cut it anymore. Good practise with REST APIs suggests returning a suitable HTTP status code, i.e. something other than 200 OK.

We launched Salesforce Functions last fall and the response so far has been terrific. While the most obvious use cases for functions are stateless processing of data, there are many examples of business processes that can take advantage of the simplified operating model of functions, but require some persistent state to span function invocations. Today, […] The post Heroku Data in Salesforce Functions appeared first on Heroku .

I switched from Ubuntu to Windows 10 a few days ago. After eight years of macOS and then a year of Linux, I wanted to circle back to Windows. 1 Since my latest writing project relies on XeTeX , a lesser-known typesetting engine within the already obscure TeX world, I expected some trouble recreating my workflow in Windows; I was not disappointed. 2 This post explains the steps I went through to create a functional TeX writing env..

Some months ago I bought a new microwave from LG (model MH6535GIB ), that is a very nice microwave for the price tag but… by default it had a big, enormous problem: the sounds. Alert sounds for everything, every button that was pressed and every time it was ending the cooking, and not one time, but once a minute for five minutes after the end of its cooking cycle. Simply crazy! The model is the MH6535GIB, this:

The search engine index has grown quite considerably the last few weeks. It’s actually surpassed 50 million documents, which is quite some milestone. In February it was sitting at 27-28 million or so. About 80% of this is side-loading all of stackoverflow and stackexchange, and part of it is additional crawling. The crawler has to date fetched 91 million URLs, but only about a third of what is fetched actually qualifies for indexing for..

Hearts and minds are abandoning governments, because governments are failing to keep themselves relevant to our online lives. While there are certainly a few anarchists and libertarians who are thrilled at the prospect of reduced “interference”, this transition really calls for an urgent evaluation of whether we should let our governments die; and what value they could provide us, if we updated them for the web3 era of user-generated conten..

This is simple but I keep needing to look it up. First check your elixir version: elixir -v Second confirm that you actually installed Elixir using brew: brew list | grep elixir Third do the upgrade: brew upgrade elixir Note : You are probably going to find more than just elixir itself is upgraded. Theoretically you should be able to look at just the upgrade tree with: brew deps --tree --include-build elixir ..

Correct file ownership when mounting local folders in Docker on Linux

I just joined a new company. Our local development happens by launching multiple containers via docker compose . Most of the existing developers are using Mac OS and Docker Desktop. This means mounting local folders into a container does not result in the same behaviour as doing so on Linux, which is my operating system of choice. When onboarding, I ran into a peculiar problem where the frontend container based on node:17.4-alpine woul..
