Think twice about Wayland. It breaks everything!

Think twice before abandoning Xorg. Wayland breaks everything!

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating everyone else (e.g., people using just an X11 window manager or something like GNUstep) in the process.

The Wayland project seems to operate like they were starting a greenfield project, whereas at the same time they try to position Wayland as "the X11 successor", which would clearly require a lot of thought about not breaking, or at least providing a smooth upgrade path for, existing software.

In fact, it is merely an incompatible alternative, and not e

JWT Auth + Refresh Tokens in Rails

JWT Auth + Refresh Tokens in Rails

This is just some code I recently used in my development application in order to add token-based authentication for my api-only rails app. The api-client was to be consumed by a mobile application, so I needed an authentication solution that would keep the user logged in indefinetly and the only way to do this was either using refresh tokens or sliding sessions.

I also needed a way to both blacklist and whitelist tokens based on a unique identifier (jti)

Before trying it out DIY, I considered using:

[Connecting DBeaver to a Heroku Postgres Database] #PostgreSQL #Heroku

To connect Pgsql in Heroku, SSL is required. If not, an error message will be given:

FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "75.168.4.146", user "rphbqggxeokuxl", database "dc008iqk0rq4j5", SSL off

To make it with DBeaver:

  • click the "SSL" tab on connection proper.
  • choose a Factory for "SSL Factory" in the "Advanced" section.

How to set up an AWS Lambda function for returning S3 pre-signed URLs for uploading files.

README

Granted, this is little more than an obfuscated way of having a publicly writable S3 bucket, but if you don’t have a server which can pre-sign URLs for you, this might be an acceptable solution.

For this to work, you take the following steps:

  1. Create a Lambda func, along with a new IAM role, keeping the default code.
  2. Create an API in the API Gateway.
