Speaking of…
- I needed to use gitlab.com for a work thing
- I had an existing work account there, and was granted access to the repository by a colleague
- When I next accessed that repository, it told me that due to the repo’s config I needed to enable 2FA for my account within ~48 hours
- I have a firm policy that my personal phone never gets involved in work, no matter how tangential, whereas a lot of 2FA is predicated on you using your phone
- However they supported a TOTP option and I remembered Technology will make your life easier - #831 by Phil
- So I set that up, and it worked beautifully
- I then wired it up to the same system I’d written for What are you coding? - #361 by Phil
- Problem not only solved, but streamlined into the bargain : )
