Really really don't like that Zed downloads random binaries without my consent. They also most of the time don't work due to being dynamically linked.

tfw you buy a chip on ebay for 1/4th the price and it turns out to be an engineering sample with an unlocked management engine

The problem with OIDC and SSO in general is that it only solves identifying the person but most clients all implement their own session management. This is is why I think an auth proxy is a way better strategy than configuring SSO on all your services as you have centralized session management

The entshitification of GitHub is happening at record pace since they've replaced all their engineers with AI. The website literally is not usable anymore on slightly bad network connections.

We need to abandon ship before we're all going down with it

OpenSSF is actively harmful to the open source ecosystem. Death by bureaucracy whilst actual core library maintainers with enormous impact on our supply chain security are unemployed, unpaid, and burning out.

More relevant than ever.

> All the "best practices" like OpenSSF Scorecards are just an attempt by big tech companies to guilt trip OSS maintainers and make them work for free.

I also kept my Dutch bank account as that's connected to my PayPal and PayPal doesn't understand you can move between countries and keep your bank accounts in the original country.

It's a nightmare and it shows how Americanocentric all these big tech companies are. Moving between countries in the EU is common and I had to go through a shitload of hoops to get my Apple, Google account into a sane state. Paypal was a lost cause and I simply never told them I moved

> At least in part because disabling these third-party cookies breaks important Single-Sign On (SSO) flow

What exactly breaks in OIDC and/or SAML with Same-Site=Lax? I keep seeing this cited in various places but I can't think of a way that it would break things

GitHub - torvalds/linux: Linux kernel source tree Linux kernel source tree. Contribute to torvalds/linux development by creating an account on GitHub.

The funny thing is it does work on GitHub.com/torvalds/linux
but not on github.com/cloud-hypervisor/linux which tells me GitHub has special hacks in place just so that they can support this repo to not look embarrassing

1. Linux Torvalds writes git to develop linux
2. GitHub starts business on top of git
3. GitHub gets acquired by trillion-dollar MicroSoft
4. GitHub enshitifies so much you can't even browse the linux kernel on GitHub anymore

Seriously????

I'm so done man.

Am I holding it wrong? I would really like to avoid adding a dedicated "Sign In with security key" button to our UI as it would be very confusing. Is there really no way to have people use security keys using conditional mediation except for "Use Google Chrome" ?
