Fun JS bug of the day introduced by a linting change, that lost me a good amount of time trying to work out what was going wrong:
- const tokenSet = await client.oauthCallback(redirect, params, { code_verifier });
+ const tokenSet = await client.oauthCallback(redirect, params, { codeVerifier })
Silently changed the meaning of the code here, and needed to be fixed with:
- const tokenSet = await client.oauthCallback(redirect, params, { codeVerifier }).catch((err) => {
+ const tokenSet = await client.oauthCallback(redirect, params, { code_verifier: codeVerifier }).catch((err) => {
Funnily enough, I've had this lead to dangerous logging in the past, but didn't spot this at first. That'll teach me!

We joke, but it’s truly nuts that we live in a world where a man can just buy a place that has been used by activists to take down dictators, journalists to quickly gather information, people of all walks to keep up with breaking events, and just run it into the ground. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…Elad Nehorai (@EladNehorai)Thu, 10 Nov 2022 17:14 GMT

If you believe a group of workers shouldn't take strike action because they are vital to the running of the country then, by that same logic, you should support them when they demand better than real-terms pay cuts so they don't have to resort to strike action in the first place.

My Atom feed may not be working perfectly though, I'll look to improve it in the coming weeks if it's looking a bit janky!

How to Build Software like an SRE
Post details
I’ve been doing this “reliability” stuff for a little while now (~5 years), at companies ranging from about 20 developers to over 2,000. I’ve always cared primarily about the software elements I describe as living “outside” the application – like, how does it get its configuration? What kinds of instances does it run on, and are those the best kinds to use? What steps does it take on its path from “code in a repository” to “running in production”? And I’ve always kept track of what I liked – which mechanisms allowed fast iteration and which caused frustration, which led to outages and which prevented them.
