For the love of god, please google, give us personal access tokens and not this Oauth madness inside GCP. It is impossible to get that in any big enterprise.

The only thing that ever really worked for me is taskwarrior.org. It is super easy to get started and can be made more sophisticated as you. I live in the terminal most of the time anyway so that makes it a natural fit.

> I never heard of any certificate authority offering that.

DigiCert does. That is where 1.1.1.1 and 9.9.9.9 get their valid certificates from

No, it is not DNS over HTTPS it is DNS over TLS, which is different.

Google is one of the most valuable brands ever. Everyone knows it. It is even used for "searching the web" openai is not that strong of a brand

The authors are Chinese so they may simply use AI to make it sound right in English

How can I run this as non-root? This is not obvious to me.

Zero Trust is a marketing label that executives can seek out and buy a thing for because it is super-hot thing to have these days. That's mostly it.

Curious to hear who is using it still. I experimented with it 2010/2011 IIRC but never build a real project with it.

I have no idea what any of the google tech has to do with anything here.

Quoting from the original spark paper:

> Spark is built on top of Mesos [16, 15], a “cluster operat- > ing system” that lets multiple parallel applications share > a cluster in a fine-grained manner and provides an API > for applications to launch tasks on a cluster

https://people.csail.mit.edu/matei/papers/2010/hotcloud_spar...

Note how Matei Zaharia - the inventor of spark - is also on the mesos paper:

When I started working at TeleAtlas Germany (former Robert Bosch Data; forever a part of TomTom now) in 2005 we still had production processes on the MapEngine technology coming from Etak. We had in-house python bindings that allowed for very productive development. It is fun to see this mentioned here today.
