Apparently there was a "blogpost" of a developer showing of their code, where they accidentally leaked access tokens in a piece of commented code: https://archive.ph/mP3bh This is completely unverified though, so take it with a grain of salt.

> Well, if you look at (global) society as a dynamical system it seems to me that there are two stable basins or attractors, call them "Star Trek" and "North Korea". Nice analogy. Do you really believe, that us being on an utopian trajectory is realistic?
> Do you really believe, that us being on an utopian trajectory is realistic? Oh yes. Very much so. In fact, by many measures we have been on an utopian trajectory for several centuries. Today even our failures are the result of unimaginable power. We have to learn to wield our power with wisdom. We have all of the physical technology we need already. We can practice regenerative agriculture that increases topsoil fe…

We should probably consider a person's voice-print, too. To be safe, you need a mask with a real-time voice changer.
And gait. Everyone walks a specific way and a person can be identified by their gait. So have to change up the walk.

The government isn't competent as a whole.. but the intelligence agencies are rather powerful. I've worked for DARPA and IARPA and you wouldn't believe half the stuff I could say publicly and none of the stuff I can't disclose.
Post the stuff you're able to talk about publicly, I'm interested!

Ahh...well there is the famous saying, "I decide who is a Jew." It was used on the head of the German Manhattan Project and a Jewish head (like a headmaster some shit) of a concentration camp, forget which one. And that's why we say "German Manhattan Project" stedda "Americaner Atomwaffenunternehmen" (I made that word up, it is correct in German to make words up, that means atom weapon undertaking), because German an…
You forgot some other Jewish scientists who emigrated to America because of Nazism, some of whom earned the Nobel and many of whom worked on the Manhattan Project Hans Bethe James Franck Edward Teller Rudolf Peierls Klaus Fuchs Otto Loewi Max Bergmann Dieter Gruen Lilli Hornig I also forgot many in this list.

In order for that to work, we’d need a ministry that catalogs ridiculous outliers of gait patterns.

Fantastic tool. We all know that _we_ wouldn't leak keys, but we have all been the person to 'rm -rf /' or 'delete * from prod where 1=1;', so it's just a matter of time. Is there a plugin that streamers could use to blur suspected keys on stream? Would that be something interesting to work on do you think? (I'm not a streamer but it sounds fun)
When I was looking into the streaming side of things I set up an overlay image which could be toggled with a hotkey to hide my screen (it actually also hid my desktop scene too in case the image didn't load or whatever) My main precaution though was separating dev/prod and never looking at prod stuff online. Worst case someone could spin up some guff in my dev/test account until I can cycle the credentials In my case…

We got rid of all IAM users used by applications and moved to role-based access. Nowhere in the application do you need to enter AWS credentials. AWS SDK will attempt to discover short-lived credentials for you and will assume the role specified at the infrastructure layer, e.g. in a task definition.
same here, but we still have IAM Users for service accounts. E.g. some customers have on premise infra that needs to talk to our services of infrastructure. Do you know a way where RBAC can be used for the above? For us, we're using long lived credentials in this space using IAM Users but with very tightly controlled authorisations.
