"An analogy: there are open source versions of Dropbox for users that don't trust Dropbox with their files (NextCloud, ownCloud, etc.), however this comes with the friction of having to host your own solution. We are more like Dro

To be brutally honest (as if not already), Doppler makes me wonder why not simply focus on building on-top of open solutions like Vault. Considering there is no on-prem version of Doppler, you could essentially run Vault behind the scenes a

Thank you for acknowledging the need for trust, self-hosting + auditability. However, please stop trying to contrast yourself with these analogies. Owncloud and Nextcloud both have hosted OR on-prem versions https://owncloud.com&

Understood, and yes my comment was harsh, perhaps a bit much so However `Enterprise tools like HashiCorp Vault and AWS Parameter Store felt like we were stuck using FTP instead of Dropbox!` is in itself bashing other peoples' work, and

with this setup, Vault will create a new database user based on the configuration you set (read-only for some services, for example), and will attach a time-to-live to those credentials; as long as the application is using them, it will ren

Wait wait wait, and this is paid and hosted too? Bleh, nooooo thanks. I'm not sending private and secret key material to a bunch of ex-Uber employees (gross on that point alone), but nevermind to ones who looked at the existing market,

I guess dynamic secrets are too "ftp" for Doppler, eh? You lost the entire audience who have actually used Vault before when you claimed it was too complex for your team to understand.. Why would I trust a company staffed with a c

I think part of the reason people are chiming in on the distinction is that a controller is comparable to a mouse for a computer; a controller requires something else for any functionality, at which point you're comparing a general com

your comment said "decks" though - the ddj1000 is _closer_ to decks, but it's still a controller. decks, you're thinking (some examples): cdj350 cdj400 cdj800 cdj850 cdj900 cdj1000 cdj2000 xdj1000 etc

It's literally impossible, in case you haven't tried recently. If you don't want to send them a government issued photo ID, you can make a new account that lasts 10 minutes and then is locked on you and holds any accounts lin

Kinda absurd. You can't setup a one time email, and one time facebook if you really don't want your movement online all linked to a government issued ID. Sure you're sort of an idiot to make those assumptions, but I'm su

I agree; this is how I've understood the terms for as long as I've been aware of and used them. The lack of light = black, and light which includes literally all colours = white. When light is "blocked" from passing, bla

Few reasons off the top of my head: - why doesn't everybody already encrypt everything to begin with? there's often a disconnect between the benefit and the ease/overhead of doing so (it's hard enough to for people to ca

Defence in depth - too often I hear "whelp, we had a tiny crack in one of our measures, so it's game over, why even try?". Imagine the scenario where service A has read-only access to the authentication db/table, whereas
