#Passkeys and Verifiable Digital Credentials: Friends or Foes?
My presentation from Authenticate 2025!
A session at Authenticate 2025 which explores the nuanced dynamics between passkeys and verifiable digital credentials, and their technological foundations across usability, privacy, trust models, and ecosystems with the goal of answering whether passkeys and verifiable digital credentials are friends or foes—and how these technologies might collaboratively shape the future of secure, user-centric digital identity systems.
@lattera Landed! Enjoy your new deadfs(9) manual. It is a perfect read for the upcoming #Halloween celebration. 🎃

I’ve converted a few of my manpages to #mdoc by now. It’s really nice to work with. 😊 The HTML output on OpenBSD is also pretty good.
Every time I touch one of my projects, I’m going to convert the manpage. And maybe I’ll even go ahead and add manpages to the projects that currently don’t have one.
All the *roff stuff is a lot of fun. Light, blazingly fast, powerful, …
This is heartbreaking. And preventable.

If you are using #DTrace on #FreeBSD, then I've got good news for you.
I've added a new manual to FreeBSD. It's called d(7) and it is a short reference of the #D scripting language. Currently, it covers only a subset of all variables and functions, but we'll add more iteratively.
Here are some previews for you:

Have fun tracing your systems!
Do "Digital Credentials API", "OID4VP", "mdoc", and "SD-JWT-VC" mean anything to you? If so, I've got a new open source project that might interest you 👀
