  • there’s no explanation of what this is supposed to do.

    Totally right, sorry about that, I’ll update the Github, but it brief this is a library that’s supposed to help a developer set up a Role Based Access Control system for an API for web service. Role Based Access Control is a method of access control whereby (And this is my very beginner’s understanding of it) users are assigned roles, and these roles are in turn issued different permissions based off what that role is supposed to have access to. When checking if a user is authorized access to a certain resource, the roles assigned to them are checked for the permissions needed for the resource. If they have permission then they are granted access to the resource, otherwise they are denied access.

    This library manages roles, permissions assigned to roles, and checking of permissions against roles via an http middleware.

    Then, there’s no main function. Where’s the entry point? This is a bit where I’m doubting myself now. Maybe go has changed, but when I was writing it, it requires a main function to even run.

    Well, this is supposed to be a library that’s used by other people, so it has no main function itself, rather it’s called by other people

    How about instead of restricting use of the software, adding in a clause that states "Use of this software is a formal acknowledgement and agreement by the user that race and gender are a social construct, gender identity and sexual orientation is a spectrum, humans can not be illegal,… " etc.

    Thus use of the software is not restricted and is still open source, but forces groups, organizations, and people who disagree with the above to acknowledge something counter to their system of power.




  • Correct, the hard disk in the laptop can not be read. This is where having a good backup strategy is important. Similar to how if your hard disk dies you’re no longer able to access the material on the hard disk. For me, the downsides of encryption do not outweigh the benefits of having my data secure.

    I enabled full disk encryption during OS installation, set up a secure passphrase, and then set up automated encrypted backups to my home server, which are automatically backed up to a remote server.

    I gain peace of mind in knowing that if my laptop is stolen I’m only out the cost of the laptop, the data within is still safe and secure.
