@dcid The relevant spec for the Permissions-Policy header is documented here: https://www.w3.org/TR/permissions-policy-1/

I elaborated more on this in another comment: https://pleroma.envs.net/notice/A6Js6Yxy0Q4uFfItvs

Bruce Schneier on Signal's cryptocurrency adventures:

"""

It’s not just that blockchain is just plain stupid. It’s not even that Signal is choosing to tie itself to a specific blockchain currency. It’s that adding a cryptocurrency to an end-to-end encrypted app muddies the morality of the product, and invites all sorts of government investigative and regulatory meddling: by the IRS, the SEC, FinCEN, and probably the FBI.

Great piece by Frank Denis ( jedisct1) on the challenges of taking your code open source and the overall entitled attitude of people using your open source code for free - and expecting free support:

"It doesn't work".

Denis is an amazing builder and maintains multiple powerful and important open source projects:

One thing I love about the noc.org DNS is the visibility it provides - including regions and resolvers.

If you want to move away from big tech and give a small provider a chance, you may like it :)

Still better than not using a password manager.

Man, working with the Mozilla devs on Firefox bugs is always such a pleasure. I filed the bug yesterday, and already a dev has responded saying "let's make this work" and is pushing patches. I should be paying money for this browser. bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.

Can We Stop Pretending SMS Is Secure Now?.

SMS text messages were already the weakest link securing just about anything online, mainly because there are tens of thousands of people (many of them low-paid mobile store employees) who can be tricked or bribed into swapping control over a mobile phone number to someone else.
