But YubiKeys are built on a hardened hardware security module instead of a general purpose phone operating system with full network connectivity and a huge attack surface. Having a UI does not increase security in a meaningful way. The atta

You don't need either Kubernetes or OpenShift if all you need is 2-3 instances. Just write an Ansible playbook. That being said, I do run a few 2-3 node OpenShift clusters and the additional complexity was well worth it.

For anyone interested in Kubernetes: Red Hat's OpenShift is worth taking a look at. It's upstream Kubernetes + a PaaS framework built in top of it. It takes care of role-based access control, has a secured Docker registry (prevent

It resulted in random, hard to reproduce ENOSPC errors down the line without either data or metadata being anywhere close to full. Neither us nor the btrfs developers that took a look at it were able to figure out what exactly went wrong,

Streaming means parsing a bunch of untrusted data. What if ffmpeg/gstreamer/Clementine has a security issue? It happened before. With a Chrome App, it sits in a (really strong) sandbox and would need to escape the sandbox first. W

You can do that with regular web apps - just create a desktop shortcut in the Chrome menu ("More").

Hah, that's a funny thread. I've heard that Google is using Chromebooks for engineers with production access. Makes a lot of sense sense since Chrome OS is much easier to secure than a normal Linux distribution.

But that's only Chrome OS. Chrome Apps were great because they worked on all (desktop) platforms.

Agreed, the SSH client is a bit of an outlier since you have that natively. I still listed it for completeness, I do use it, after all.

Chrome OS has no native SSH client, but Google published a NaCL based SSH client: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/secure-shell/pnhec... It's useful outside of Chrome OS if you have a security p

This one I'm fine with since WebAssembly is a worthy replacement, but I'm still annoyed at Google discontinuing Chrome Apps. Some examples of specialized apps I use all the time that would require a native app otherwise: - Signal

For Ansible, it's important to differentiate between the master and client side code. Client side code has to run on everything starting with CentOS 6, so they have to stick with Python 2 for a long time. For the Ansible master (which

WhatsApp messed it up particularly bad, but it's not the only example. The point is that there was no private access to the SD card. If you had large files that did not fit on the internal storage, using the shared external storage w
