Years ago when I was a student, and JavaScript could get a user’s clipboard without their consent, I made a website ‘getpasted’ that automatically pasted and posted your clipboard to a public database.

Needless to say, some people weren’t happy about it. But it was a nice project to create awareness that it was possible to read the clipboard at any time.

I didn’t know about that. However, I explicitly wanted to avoid having users to create an OAuth project because it’s a hassle. Also these tokens can expire if they’re not refreshed after a while.

Looks really good!

How do you create funnels without cookies? In other words, how do you track sessions?

People like this are an instant hire for me at my company.

It’s quite sad that Microsoft apparently doesn’t think he’s worthy of the ‘senior’ title yet whilst his work is heaps better than most seniors I know. Kinda explains their poor software quality lately.

Hey, I’m the author of wg-easy, nice to see my project in here!

As for all the license discussions, I just don’t want a company to pack my work and sell it as a commercial device or service. I’m open for a better license which covers that.

Why don’t they just introduce Reddit Premium, for say $5/mo, which is ad-free and allows 3rd party clients.

Thanks for your reply! Do you have a guide or more information somewhere? I found that while Firecracker seems popular, it's sparsely documented.

Super interesting read!

I’ve been playing with Firecracker on a Raspberry Pi 4, but never could get Docker inside a Firecracker uVM to work. Should this be supported at all?
