Lotus Notes used to have that. (Might still do?)

https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/41247/changing-...


We used Notes at work until a few years ago and it still had it IIRC. I never stopped to think about why the pictures changed, that's interesting. Another annoying decision is that they prevented pasting passwords, which is very inconvenient when using a password manager. I ended up having to use one that simulated keystrokes.


I've seen a few "Best Current Practise" RFC's around standards implementation. eg: here's one still in draft form for OAuth: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-oauth-secur...


So you're covered for "forgotten" - but "lost" is still an issue. What happens when a user loses their passkey? (stolen phone, no backups, house fire, etc).


Got it, thanks. A blind spot on my part there. It's funny how quickly the concept of losing access to a phone has taken root, I'm fortunate to have never had that happen to me and I need to remember how easily it could.


If I'm reading the docs right (TBH - I'm probably not) it looks like on a z16 you can get 200 cores and 40TB of Memory on a single "VM" (LPAR).

So 1/100th of the CPU and 40% of the RAM. (I suspect the RAM comparison is reasonable - I'm not sure about how to compare the CPU's).


As someone who used to administer an ADSM server back a long time ago -- I'm curious what the gap between spectrum protect or whatever it's called now and commvault/netbackup? I've haven't really looked at that space for at least a decade.


So make sure you are doing PKCE for public clients.

With that, and the redirect URL (and therefore trusting DNS), and the other browser security model stuff…. You’re in fairly good shape.

There’s newer standards coming like DPoP - but it’s probably not worth it yet.

Nuclear weapons?


You get diminishing returns as they get larger though. And there has certainly been plenty of work done on delivery systems, which could be considered progress in the field.


Scott Morrison (as a Pentecostal) had religion as a minor part of his platform at least. (I know you probably weren't looking at Australian PM's - but he stands out more so than any of the UK/CA/NZ examples that come to mind. I might be biased though)


No - but they have been referred to as "cool" before. Gotta love the early 90's.
