It’s really not that hard. Authentication is about proving the identity of the subject e.g. logging in using information only known / in possession by the subject (password, mfa etc). Authorization is about establishing what permissions that identity has in a given context. E.g. is this identity allowed to create/read/update/delete these resources. Authorization is typically done through roles (RBAC) or more granulary through attributes (ABAC).
That wasn’t the dumb part of that submersible. Game controllers are actually really good at what they do. The dumb part is that it was built like an airplane.
Nevertheless, there is the one hidden advantage of this approach: You learn new things while trying to automate everything. Remember, that it is the journey that is important, not the destination ;)
I saw while(i --> 0) in someone else’s code and thought wth is this –> operator? Then I realized it’s while(i-- > 0) and thought cool, I gotta do this!
