It seems like macOS/iOS deliberately and per policy clears your cut buffer after you paste into a password field.
Am I holding something wrong or is this the most egregious violation of the principle of least astonishment and the stupidest design decision in the history of password reset flows that has personally fucked me at least three times?
Glad to see I'm not the only person howling with despair at how difficult it is to build anything that involves OpenID Connect in the comments on this Hacker News thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38868610
@simon I’ve set OIDC up with AWS and GCP and it’s intimidating at first sight. But also totally worth it when you realise you don’t need to manage and worry about the tokens/secrets any more. The actions just implicitly run as the service account, just as if you’re using workload identity in a VM or CloudRun action or whatever. Totally worth it.
Oh my fucken god. I made a two minute phone call to Australia this month (because Congstar hide their international tariffs on their website, if they’re there at all, and how bad could it be?) and it cost me €4.50. Holy shit.
Well, now I know. Still looking for something better than Viber for cheap international VOIP calls.
@ratkins When I need this, Skype Out. Call rate looks indistinguishable from Viber. I once put €20 on my account… still haven’t used it up. Every now and then it expires and I have to reactivate it, but whatever. The hassle of figuring out anything else will not be worth it until that balance hits 0, which for me will be in about 2030.
I feel like we truly need to have a serious discussion about Taylor Swift coming in to sub out Joe Biden.
The constitutional age requirement will be met by inauguration. There is literally no legal block to this plan. It will work. And finally put a Millennial in control.
Taylor Swift is a transcendent global figure of statistically unequalled power. Remember there were only like 5 million people on Earth when Beatlemania hit. They had no other options. Taylor Swift is a lighthouse in the storm of time.
@ratkins@whakkee I knew this, and the CD length thing. However I only recently learnt that Spotify’s 30s royalty barrier has killed the long intro; gotta hook ‘em before they skip.
@codinghorror I had to read and study this back in the nineties at high school. I think about it constantly, and wish it was more widely known. It’s incredibly frustrating trying to explain it to people, it’s so hard to find a common reference. So many profound observations and ideas that still apply today.
