I always felt my web dev were a little bit on the weak site, particularly with me being a little fuzzy about authentication...
Anyway contracting as a web dev now and I have been struggling with JWT Token Authentication in internal API with ADFS (Active Directory Federate Server) for the last. what.. 3 weeks overall?
My boss and colleague struggle too. And even the Microsoft support guy we employed for the occasion took 3 days to get things working...
Anyway long story short. It works now!
And it was not me, it was f***ing MS/ADFS Authentication which is .... not that easy!

I just wrote some articles on using Azure AD with Angular. The trick bits are that your Azure AD token won't call the Graph API, you need a secondary token and then you need to set up permissions on the application to actually ask what people's groups are.

Lucky you, you are using Azure AD!
We are using AD (+FS)... A less well working and documented beast..

The complexity gives the feeling that using all those abbreviations is much more secure that before... If everyone understands it, it worth nothing (and it seems that only the hackers understand it fully)...

I released a beta of a Minecraft Modpack yesterday, and right afterwards the Twitch App broke and is failing to display about half the available mods when searching. I poked Twitch on Twitter, but haven’t received a reply yet. God that program is a mess.

yes it's true, once long ago I was young, the world was black and white, shoppes were closed all weekend except the taverns which only closed on Sundays, back when we actually climbed trees because that's what they were invented for...
... me and my friends would come up with statements that sounded something like that as if it were normal plain speech, and the old people of that time (yes we had those too, so really old ones that looked like living antiques) would look at us as if we were talking a completely different foreign language.
well now I know how them old people felt.
OIOW: what the fark does poking twittering twits actually mean? literal or not?

I'm not sure if God reads the messages here, well maybe does but never seen a reply - can try mailing direct though I'd also suggest asking his son first - might be better being a 'young person' thing... even though the boy's got more than a few decades on his birthday count too he's still younger than God.

A distant battlefield, covered in smoke, mewling quietly with the last cries of the dying...
In my ever-progressing battle to maintain control over my development machine from the IT of Sauron, I once wrote an app called Twitcher in an effort to keep the screen saver from timing out and locking the PC. I occasionally will sit and stare at the screen longer than the 10 minute timeout period. It's a PITA to have to three-finger salute, log back in, etc. Doing so invariably makes me lose my concentration. Twitcher was a little app that woke up once a minute, checked the position of the mouse, and if it hadn't moved, moved it a few pixels and then back to its original position. At the time, this was enough to defeat the screen saver. Unfortunately that stopped working a while back, and none of the other methods I've found are effective. I've seen ads for hardware dongles that emulate mice and do the same thing, so I may give that a try.
Today the field is barren, with only scrub grasses growing midst a crop of bones of the fallen.

Ayrton Senna died 25 years ago today. There will probably be a lot of retrospective videos and such. It's sort of crazy how far cars have come since then. Of course they actually DROVE the cars back then, instead of the cars shifting, balancing, correcting, rotating, throttling, etc... themselves.
It's sort of sad that the natural aspirated super-car may not survive to see the 30th anniversary of his death. Porsche and Lamborghini/Audi are sort of the last men standing in terms of the non-boutique, non-luxury GT super-cars. The GT3(RS) and Huracan/Aventador may be the last hurrah. Almost everything else is already turbo'd and/or battery assisted and sound like hair dryers in comparison. The GT3 and Huracan sound like demons making sexy time.

He was respected, not only in South America, but also by other drivers. In a talkshow on Dutch TV a few days ago they remembered and spoke highly of him.

I was a F1 fan than and saw it live on TV with my dad - it was totally unbelievable...

Grand Tour season 3 episode 5 was about Jim Clark. It was really amazing to see that and then drive in a car that accelerates and de-accelerates by itself, steers itself (scary) and has more cameras and radars than I would imagine.

These days racing is almost as much about limiting technology as it used to be about encouraging it. Technology is such that, at this point, if they didn't limit it the whole thing would just be a joke and a dangerous joke at that. But is also means that, in some ways, innovation has moved from the racing world to the super-car and sports car world, where those limitations aren't in place.
When Porsche retired its 919 LMP type car, they went back and did a version of it for fun that wasn't limited by regulations. It is ludicrously fast. It lapped the Nurburgring so fast that makes your palms sweat just to watch it. He spends very little time under 120MPH and plenty of times he's 200MPH+, and that's on a very bumpy, tricky track. If you watch the little inset video of the interior, I'm amazed he wasn't concussed by the time he was done.

There's some footage from Spa that literally looks like a cartoon because it's going so fast that your brain refuses to accept it's real. At about 1:50 and again at around 2:25, it just doesn't even look real.

If they allowed real racing sort of leeway, there would be people splattered like bugs all over the track.
