The irony of "Andor" wrapping up a story about how rebellion entails not only hope but shooting fascists in the fucking face, where the only good politicians are those who will call a genocide a genocide even if it costs them everything, at a time when the entire liberal establishment is in retreat, refusing to take a moral stand, and begging for peace with the fascists through shared bigotry.

If I could give past me 1 piece of practical advice, it would be: keep a spreadsheet w the start/end dates of every place you lived, job you had, and trip you took. The SHEER NUMBER of times I've needed some of this info and had to go email spelunking…😭 At least a song told me to wear sunscreen 🙃

Picked up Anne Carson's "If not, Winter", her translation of Sappho fragments with layout of the original fragments vs. translation to clearly show where all the holes are in the original manuscripts. I find it interesting I exclusively read ebooks, but I often have physical poetry books around my desks, because it works for me to pick those up and read them, possibly because I tend to do it in shorter bursts. (also got it because it got referred to in fic which is cursed) #Books #Poetry

The problem with dystopian satirical fiction is that it's too real nowadays. You can sit around coming up with an idea for a short story but it just ends up being something like "DraftKings Jr: Sportsbooks for little leagues" and then you start to get terrified the silly idea you just had will actually become real in under 5 years The #solarpunk people are on the right track I think with the idea of writing utopian fiction instead because it's genuinely more bold to imagine things actually being good. We're all cynical now so actually envisioning something worth fighting for is the real bitter pill we need now and not depresso wallowing in our pessimism. The real opportunity I think is in the liminal space between the two. Write about a revolution in progress and the sorts of conflicts between now and what we want by 2050 or so.

Here are my quick reflections about today, “World Password Day”. Passwords hurt many, many people. They’re incredibly user-hostile, putting burdens on people that computing devices should solve instead. I love my password manager because it helps me navigate the world, but there is a limit on who can be helped with software that layers on top of the broken password experience. I can see that that pain is increasingly understood by the people who make and manage apps and websites, as evidenced by huge uptake of passkeys, as well as other “passwordless” strategies deployed by websites. I’m seeing a mix of passkeys, OTPs, and magic links these days. A few months ago, I wrote about the flaws of email “magic links” and how passkeys can be integrated with magic links to provide a better user experience. I’m still proud of this piece, and I’d love for folks to read it. https://rmondello.com/2025/01/02… Large websites and apps are seeing incredible results deploying passkeys as a core part of their user authentication strategies, with fewer failed sign-ins and faster sign-ins overall. And this is before we’ve seen large uptake of “Automatic Passkey Upgrades”, which will accelerate this trend. Obviously, passkeys aren’t perfect, but they have compelling industry momentum and a group of stakeholders who care deeply about making them better. User experiences are being refined, powerful capabilities are being added, and yes, the ability to move passkeys between credential managers is coming. I am thrilled by the progress passkeys have made in just a few short years and extremely optimistic about their future. Let’s keep it up. :)
