Hello everyone, I am Markos aka qnoid. You might have come across Windmill (https://windmill.qnoid.com/) or that talk on Sound Debugging (https://qnoid.com/2013/06/08/Sound-Debugging.html#main). Just recently, I also gave a talk at NSLondon on Debugging Closed Source Code (https://qnoid.com/2024/04/11/debugging-closed-source-code.ht...).

I am a software engineer, experienced in iOS/macOS apps and Java Enterprise, based in London, UK. I am primarily looking for a London based role, open to working remotely.

I was really excited to be offered a role at Sketch as a macOS Developer, albeit a short one. I loved Sketch’s engineering driven culture, working on an award winning Apple product alongside some of the best developers in the field.

I am also really proud of the engineering team at KodyPay I established as the no. 2 engineering hire. I loved working on features that required me to wear many of my hats (mobile, backend, infrastructure).

I also take great pleasure in writing technical guides, giving talks and generally breaking down complex problems. In that sense, I am also interested in pivoting to a Developer Relations role.

I can attest that how the author felt is how I experienced anxiety and depression.

Hi there,

I'm Markos Charatzas, the author of the post.

This is actually a series of posts written (http://qnoid.com/2012/11/10/A-post-about-user-identity-that-..., http://qnoid.com/2012/11/10/Mockups-on-user-identity.html, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9Zu-AHhXyo), talks given (https://speakerdeck.com/qnoid/user-identity-nsconference-201... https://speakerdeck.com/qnoid/user-identity) and open source code released (https://github.com/verylargebox/VLBUserIdentity) on how we should think of user authentication based on existing user behaviour (never signing out) and trends (long lived sessions, email verification).

When talking about mobile, people don't log out of every app before locking their device.

If you have any further questions after reading all the above happy to address them.

I don't really see the need for passwords anymore. Mozilla's Personas looks good for the web.

With the rise of mobile apps though, we introduce more usernames and password daily.

Believe there is an easier way to handle user authorisation and here is a post about it. https://gist.github.com/4052818
