- Finally Sending Off That Invoice
The weeks worth of work has finally been done. Tested, invoiced and finally finished. Accomplishment. I have been doing a lot of admin work recently and it has made me really think about Postie - and its AI features could help me do my work...
I guess what i've really been thinking about in light of this weeks events with all the hacks and vulnerabilities is how to offer people the ability to use their subscriptions or API keys in a safe and secure way. OIDC is what I've really seen as a way of doing this but how does that work? What's the model going to be that gives me as a business and me as a customer the least exposure? Secure foundations are important. Maybe I'm just overly sensitive to this because of Email being the most trusted (and equally least secure by design) thing that people use every day.
Maybe this is why i've been spending so much time planning the last few days instead of shipping as I want to make sure i'm not just "spraying and praying" code but like actually doing meaningful changes.
