This works around a real problem I'm surprised nobody has solved - the ability to register a bunch of keys at the same time. The webauthn spec has public/private keys incorporated: https://www.w3.org/TR/weba

GCP supports remotely loading public ssh keys onto a box. They do this using the metadata endpoint - this is (in theory) a trusted API endpoint available to instances @ 169.254.169.254. IAM actually uses this - when you call other services,

My main FUD with alpaca.markets is the ability to transfer assets in/out. It doesn't look like they offer ACATS transfers (although there's not much info on this!). Using them for anything beyond entertainment budget is very

Hey! I built this because I had 10+ bank accounts, and they were annoying to monitor. I'd log in every month and have to chase down why they didn't look as I expected them too. I've set up Lambda functions to e.g. post bills

Coming soon! I appreciate the feedback. It uses plaid under the hood, so I get read-only access to bank data. You can validate by inspecting network reqs - it just grabs a public token from plaid and sends it to my backend - I never see the

I'm hacking on https://bankhooks.com The premise is simple - define arbitrary conditions on transactions or balances, and get webhooks or emails when those conditions fire on any of your bank accounts. I have >10 bank ac

Mount the docker socket. There's some quirks with storage volume paths. Also, security implications. Was not super hard to get working though. I'd love to go straight to containerd or even basic linux containers but I'm not w

This is the exact class of problem that docker itself attempts to avoid. This is why I run docker-compose inside a docker container, so I can control exactly what it has access to and isolate it. There's a guide to do so here[1]. It ha

Can someone explain why a government couldn't block the IP of this service? Whether it's a VPN or just dns over https, it seems the servers wouldn't have infinite dynamic ips and could therefore be blocked.

Please don't do this. It gives the user the illusion that their connection is secure, but the connection between Cloudflare and the site is not secure. Arguably it's better to encrypt some of the route rather than none of it, but

Thanks for all the great work on dev-tools. I recently started developing a chrome extension and found that not all of the great standard functionality was present. Here were some of the main pain points: - debugger; statements do not work

The self driving accidents might be the easiest for humans to avoid, but if accident rates are lower for self-driving cars, it's still worth it. Let's look at overall numbers and severity, not how avoidable it would be for a human

This is very anecdotal. I really wish we had data on market share, costs, revenues, etc. Obviously we won't have even most of the picture until both companies are public, but at this point it seems like all of these articles are just s

I'm unclear as to how this would work in practice. Chrome supports U2F out of the box, so getting a big weird pop-up asking to access your USB device, you'd at least be suspicious. Upon registration, the server also collects a non
