Distributed or Dancer Shell

Similar to ansible command but allows you to use any command that will work in your shell. Not tied to specific configuration management tooling, just SSH and your default shell on remote systems. Just works. I <3 it :)

What does it do?

Runs commands across potentially many machines. Allows you to organize your servers/VMs/instances into groups very easily.

OAuth 2.0 and the Road to Hell

They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Well, that’s OAuth 2.0.

Last month I reached the painful conclusion that I can no longer be associated with the OAuth 2.0 standard. I resigned my role as lead author and editor, withdraw my name from the specification, and left the working group. Removing my name from a document I have painstakingly labored over for three years and over two dozen drafts was not easy. Deciding to move on from an effort I have led for over five years was agonizing.

There wasn’t a single problem or incident I can point to in order to explain such an extreme move. This is a case of death by a thousand cuts, and as the work was winding down, I’ve found myself reflecting more and more on what we actually accomplished. At the end, I reached the conclusion that OAuth 2.0 is a bad
