The Composable Web Proposal

Serverless infrastructure like AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions have made it much cheaper for developers to offer server-side code for public consumption without keeping a server always running.

If these functions could be declared as stateless or deterministic, costs can be brought down even more because only the first invocation needs to be executed. Cached response could be returned for future invocations with the same input arguments.

All modern browsers support URL lengths of thousands of characters, even on mobile. A lot of data can be embedded and passed around directly in the URLs (instead of passing identifiers which requires a look-up which costs server time).

So here's a thought:

Overview

This gist details how to create or restore a disk image in Mac OSX. There are three methods that are described: Carbon Copy Cloner, Disk Utility, and CommandLine.

• Disclaimer:
  • I have no financial incentives to https://bombich.com or Apple.
  • Always make a backup of your data, and make 2 separate backups before trying something new.
  • The following steps have been tested and are a summary of my personal recommendations, but should be used at your own risk.
  • If there is a chance of imminent data loss, contact a professional for assistance, and do not rely on a random person from the Internet for help.

Method 1: Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC)

Generate Symantec VIP Access Token as OTP

Recently I came across a web service that required two-factor authentication using the Symantec VIP Access App. I already manage all of my OTP tokens in a different app (If you are on iOS I highly recommend using OTP Auth by Roland Moers.) and did not want to have to use yet another app to generate the TOTP.

There is a way to generate a Symantec VIP Access compatible token very easily if you have access to an environment which can run Python PIP. I happen to have Ubuntu Windows Subsystem Linux running on my machine. (If you are running Windows 10 and don't have this you should really check it out.) Let's get started...

Instructions

Here we install python3-pip and qrencode so we can generate our secret, I

# you must have SoX installed to generate touch tones
# brew install sox

# also, whatever application you run this script from will need to be authorized
# to control your computer, via System Preferences > Privacy > Accessibility

# finally, don't run this with headphones plugged in :)

1) Install cloudflared using homebrew:

brew install cloudflare/cloudflare/cloudflared

2) Create /usr/local/etc/cloudflared/config.yaml, with the following content

proxy-dns: true

Generating Authy passwords on other authenticators

---

*update: TBC, but this new might affect how easy it is to use this technique past August 2024: Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August

---

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.
