My earnest hope is that all of the former WordPress community supporters and contributors, swivel and start investing their time and effort into WriteFreely.

The middle of the end?

Let's build another web browser based on Servo!

Escaping the smart tv doom.

USB Type C is great! ...unless you have to use dongles anyway.

I liked the style of this video

A tech service named Clerk put together a nice breakdown of how Passkeys work on a technical level. I've found many other explanations too focused on technical definitions rather than a conceptional overview or so simplistic they were unhelpful for me. This one feels like a nice balance between not enough information and too much.

The article is broken down into the sections below:

• What are passkeys?
• How does public key crypto work?
• A practical use of public-key cryptography
• How are passkeys more secure than a username and password?
• Clerk supports passkeys [this last section is irrelevant to anyone not interested in the service provided by Clerk]

Clerk provides some sort of user management service; I don't know nor care if it's any good.
