    As soon as I realized I could have emoji in bash function names I did a thing[0] with it. It breaks shellcheck, annoys people who I try to convince to use it, but it makes me very …

    That's pretty much how I use git. My text editor auto saves, I work on a task, doing refactors, or throw away wishful code along the way. When I feel like I'm at a good point for a…

    Aren't they? Are you sure piping to 'man' can't result in arbitrary code execution? The two things you need to be able to say you trust are your CA store, and the source of your cu…

    I share my vault with my partner. You can specify multiple gpg IDs in the `.gpg-id` file at the root of the store and passwords will be encrypted for both. You can do this on a per…

    I've been incredibly happy with https://www.passwordstore.org/ for years. The data store is a file hierarchy, with the files themselves encrypted with GPG. Sync is via git. TOTP su…
