Skunk Works: A Personal Memoir of My Years at Lockheed by Ben Rich is really good

This is neat. I use disqus on my blog and had never heard of Isso. I'll have to check it out.

This sort of editor makes it impossible to edit text. Say I want to change a link or image.. I have to delete it and insert it again. I prefer editors that show a side by side of markdown and rendered text so I can type/edit markdown but also see the output. I think that's a better compromise than replacing the markdown with live text.

That was the first thing I looked for. Cool that it runs in browser instead of uploading all of my data to their server.

Don't really see a point in all the gifs. Would be much easier to see the difference if you just showed two separate images of good/bad examples.

I was looking for one a while back and ended up making my own in PHP. I know it's not a popular language anymore but I have a PHP host where I put my websites and it's the quickest to get up and running for me. Anyway, it's on github https://github.com/sachleen/Steady and a website I made using it: https://github.com/sachleen/SacSciOly | http://sacramentoscienceolympiad.com
I tried all the others and none worked for me. Had to install all these new development environments, lots of issues setting up the local servers and building sites, etc. It's not perfect and I probably would not recommend it to anyone else (no docs yet, after all), but it works for me and doesn't take too much time to throw something together if you want simplicity.

For anyone using Windows with vertical monitors, I made something in AutoHotKey that helps snap windows to top/bottom half or third of the screen. This is useful if you regularly use Win+Left/Right key to snap windows to the left/right screen on landscape monitors but miss the feature on portrait monitors.

I've never experienced this as a form of spam myself but I have noticed that some times events will get added to my calendar without me seeing the email message. I'll see something on my calendar and think "I don't remember this..." but if I had just seen it in my inbox, I would have marked it Done and remembered it, even if it was way in the future.

Long time lastpass user recently switched to BitWarden. I find it's UI to be cleaner/easier to use

Yup, you'd have to have all permutations of any length password in the css file AND it would have to be pre-filled using the value attribute. The original post on this talks about it in more detail: https://www.mike-gualtieri.com/posts/stealing-data-with-css-...

Summary: A method is detailed - dubbed CSS Exfil - which can be used to steal targeted data using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) as an attack vector. Due to the modern web's heavy reliance on CSS, a wide variety of data is potentially at risk, including: usernames, passwords, and sensitive data such as date of birth, social security numbers, and credit card numbers. The technique can also be used to de-anonymize users on dark nets like Tor. Defense methods are discussed for both website operators as well as web users, and a pair of browser extensions are offered which guard against this class of attack.

While it's an interesting idea, these are confusing to understand even for someone who knows these concepts.
I really like this! Great way to introduce codes and make your own secret language. Also a good way to lead into how to decode them with pattern recognition.
