This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Falsehoods

Overview

1Password stores previous logged in accounts so you can easily sign back in. However, if you leave an organization those logins remain. These instructions allow you to clean up the available accounts on the Account Management screen.

Instructions

As a convenience feature, to make signing into the 1Password apps across multiple Apple devices easier, if you've set up your device with an Apple ID and have iCloud Keychain enabled (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204085), then when you sign into a 1Password membership inside one of our apps for Mac or iOS, the app will write some of your sign-in details to your encrypted iCloud storage. Then, if you go to sign into an account on a different Apple device that's set up with the same Apple ID and iCloud Keychain, the 1Password app there will find the account details stored in iCloud, and will present it as a list of found accounts to make signing into them easier.

If you have an account being found in the details stored in iCloud, and you no longe

Enable persistent storage for the systemd journal log

Overview

The assumed default setting in /etc/systemd/journald.conf is Storage=auto which implies that systemd journaling will only persist the journal if the expected storage location is available. Otherwise, the journal data is stored in memory and lost between reboots. On Ubuntu 16.04, /var/log/journal does not exist by default. Create it to keep and query events from previous boots.

Considerations:

• Syslog still provides the persistant log records for Ubuntu 16.04, so enabling persistant systemd journal logging does cause a level of duplicaiton.
• There are sane defaults:
