New comment by jaden in "Sergey Brin's Unretirement"

jaden — Wed, 07 Jan 2026 05:23:26 +0000

It's interesting to hear about his experience, but I'm not sure if it's typical. There are millions of people retiring each year, presumably many are happy to be done with the drudgery of work and excited to spend time on hobbies and projects they enjoy.

I'm curious to know how many retirees end up like Sergey and how many you don't hear about because they're too busy enjoying their retirement.

jaden — Tue, 06 Jan 2026 13:32:00 +0000

I love these kinds of collections but often don't recall the site in the moment I have a task they could fulfill.

To combat that I've been self-hosting https://github.com/CorentinTh/it-tools which has a lot of overlap with these tools and might provide some ideas.

https://github.com/ksdme/ut is a rust CLI with a similar purpose.

I too have found Syncthing + Filebrowser to be a sufficient substitute for Dropbox.

I found the domain I use by searching for {word}mail.com among expired domains (e.g. expireddomains.net) or new domains (e.g. https://leandomainsearch.com/search/?q=mail)

New comment by jaden in "Bitwarden is turning 2FA on by default for new devices"

jaden — Tue, 28 Jan 2025 16:59:37 +0000

I get the desire to make the Bitwarden login more secure, but this is very likely to cause problems for users who don't have their email password memorized. 2FA already carries the burden of needing a backup if you lose your phone. This change means users will need to come up with an alternate way to log in to their email account. I'm not sure it's worth it.

It gets even more complicated if you use 2FA with your email provider.
