I love that absurd projects like “Every UUID dot com” exist, but I really appreciate when their creators document the process in detail
There are a few things that I think the site is currently missing. Having more social features would be really neat – maybe you could see the UUIDs your friends have favorited so that you could use those UUIDs too? Or maybe the site could feature “trending UUIDs” that are particular popular across the world right now.
Apparently the trick to US customs is being a software developer going to San Francisco. He almost forgot to ask me to take my mask off
Today at work we hit general availability on one of the most challenging projects I’ve tackled, “how do you take the password out of 1Password”. Unlock with Okta is the result.
Our security team did a wonderful job detailing how we solved the problem and maintained end to end encryption.
Apparently it has been 10 years since “this is fine” was published. This meme has deeply embedded itself in my professional life and even taken up a spot on my shelf.
The original artist posted a great reflection on the impact of this phenomenon on them.
And it feels like it’s only getting harder. The best I can ask for is for people to simply forget, but the dog persists. So I do what I can and try to keep in good humor and be thankful that I can still do what I do for a living.
Reflection on a decade from the author
I went looking for a keyboard and mouse combo with multi device support and immediately gave into nostalgia for my university days.
On the road for work again for the first time in 3 years. Excited to finally meet some of my coworkers in person!
Sometimes I like to check the work of the spammers that end up in my Junk mailbox. I have a begrudging respect for joebilling
Today is the start of (virtual) AGConf 12 on a virtual space station instead of a cruise ship
That moment when you realize that the developers on the NHL app never expected a team to have a points percentage of less than 10% and sanitized the leading 0
I’m sure the Yotes would appreciate a .620 points percentage 🤣
1Password launched a Linux app for the first time earlier this year and to celebrate that everyone in the company got a mug! (And it includes a cheeky easter egg on the bottom)
We launched a fun feature in partnership with @Fastmail today!
Also I will take any excuse to buy a new vanity domain 🤣
A little end of the work week decompression
In some ways it seems like a small thing, but learning that my employer was making Juneteeth a global holiday felt important.
We want everyone at 1Password to have the opportunity to reflect and learn about racial inequality, so we’re making Juneteenth a paid holiday for our team of 400+ people, across the globe – our (virtual) offices will be closed on Friday, June 18, 2021. In an effort to educate and inspire action, we shared information on the history/heritage of the holiday and ways 1Password employees can make a difference in their communities.
1Password is making the Juneteeth pledge
I love the idea of describing what I do as “Sparkling DevOps”
Only 30 minutes until the WWDC keynote! Every year I tell myself I’m going to dive into iOS development in my spare time… 🤔
Really I’m mostly excited about the potential of iPadOS
I am excited to finally be able to talk about what I have been up to at 1Password for the last year!
Introducing Secrets Automation
Just received my new office decoration this morning compliments of @IneffectiveMath’s HockeyViz
It has been a decade since this experience and given the state of social media I cannot really say this person was wrong.
listening to a man from bell aliant tell me about how web 2.0 will end the world
Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are the face of Silicon Valley’s hubris.
Poorly addressing problems that don’t really exist and crushing the environment to do so. All in the name of generating value for the early adopters, yet another form of gate keeping in tech.

Today we had a symmetric gigabit internet connection installed giving us far more up speed at home.
Jumping from 10Mbps to 1Gbps is exciting because it means we don’t have to worry about Zoom bandwidth and as a bonus I can also reliably run my own VPN
