The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Shelley - Chapter 3 - The Staking

This guide's chapter targets the pool operators for getting their head around of Shelley staking. To fully understand the staking mechanism we need to define and interpret the following key concepts:

• What are the keys
• What are the addresses
• What are the certificates and
• Who are the stake holders that are participanting in staking.

Keys, Addresses and Certifications

NB: This document describles a 'Old-School' way of using Yubikey with SSH

Modern OpenSSH has native support for FIDO Authentication. Its much simpler and should also be more stable with less moving parts. OpenSSH also now has support for signing arbitary files witch can be used as replacement of gnupg. Git also supports signing commits/tags with ssh keys.

Pros of FIDO

• Simpler stack / less moving parts
• Works directly with ssh, ssh-add and ssh-keygen on most computers
• Simpler
• Private key can never leave the FIDO device

Cons of FIDO

## You only need to add one rule if the traffic goes to the container

My call for Kotlin as a major frontend language

I try to push for quite a long time for first class support for WebAssembly in Kotlin because I really believe that frontend development is a domain where Kotlin can be as strong as in mobile, and because this is something that would also help to increase even more the adoption on server-side.

I truly appreciate all the work already done by Kotlin/JS and Kotlin/Native teams. The dead code elimination tool and the initial WebAssembly support in Kotlin/Native are important steps in the right direction. But I believe that Kotlin needs now to make frontend a real priority to take it to the next level.

Need for a consistent and unified web frontend strategy

The first point I would like to raise is that what Kotlin needs IMO is a consistent strategy about web frontend wich includes both Javascript and WebAssembly related efforts. I can u

Random Thoughts on Authentication in REST APIs

Disclaimer: I am not an auth expert, but I know someone who is. All errors and ramblings below are mine, not theirs.

First, some considerations:

• Is your API a public data service or just the "backend piece" of your own web or mobile app?
• Are you employing a third-party (e.g., "login with Facebook") or are you managing credentials yourself?
• Basic auth or token auth?
• Stateless (token fully contains verification info) or stateful (must consult data store every time to verify) tokens?
• Long-lived tokens or short-lived tokens?
