https://xeiaso.net/blog/gtd-on-paper-2021-06-13/

One of many interesting articles. See https://xeiaso.net/blog/2024/homelab-v2/, https://xeiaso.net/blog/idk-about-email/, https://xeiaso.net/blog/push-2fa-considered-harmful/ for others.
On https://xeiaso.net/blog/move-away-rsa-ssh/, it is stated that "[it is] likely you can break 2048-bit RSA (the most widely deployed keysize) with a quantum computer that only uses 372 qubits of computational power. The IBM Osprey has 433 qubits."
https://12factor.net/ sounds interesting too.
