Episode 27 of our technology podcast @RuntimeArguments (http://RuntimeArguments.fm) is up — "SSH and how we got here".
Jim @jammcq walks through SSH's three-decade arc — Tatu Ylönen's 1995 response to a campus password-sniffing attack, OpenSSH a few years later, and what's stayed essentially the same ever since — while Wolf @YesJustWolf pokes at what SSH actually does beyond remote login (file copy, secure tunnels, even X forwarding). They climb the authentication ladder from passwords to public keys to hardware-backed enclaves to certificates, with practical advice along the way: use ED25519, put passphrases on your keys, set the right file permissions, and turn off password auth.
As always, we want to know what you think:
