An argument for passwordless
Article
A warning upfront: this is not a “passwords are dead pls don’t use” article, but my attempt at convincing you to consider alternatives to password authentication. I also include a primer on the different passwordless authentication techniques you might want to use. Aren’t passwords just awesome? The concept behind passwords is quite simple.

It's Hard to Reason About Systems • Hillel Wayne
Article
In programming arguments, such as static vs dynamic typing,1 people use their experiences and reason to frame these debates. However, reason is often a poor grounding for justifying complex positions. Usually warnings against using “reason” take the form of “it’s easy to be biased” or “we tend to make logical fallacies.” But this presupposes that if we were less biased we could answer the question by thinking really hard. I’d like to argue that this is actually impossible: we can’t understand something “static vs dynamic” with reason alone.
