[TL;DR](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tl;dr): I use a password manager and you should too. [Bitwarden](http://bitwarden.com/) is a Free Software alternative.
|
||||
|
||||
![Bitwarden Logo](/attachments/3/original/)
|
||||
|
||||
This is my 10th post of #100DaysToOffload.<!--more-->
|
||||
|
||||
## Password managers
|
||||
We all have a *lot* of online accounts now, between banks, emails, marketplaces, public institutions, games, transport, storage, food delivery, … The list goes on.
|
||||
|
||||
And the vast majority of these accounts should all have different passwords. And by different I mean very different.
|
||||
For example, these two passwords are not different enough:
|
||||
|
||||
| Service | Password |
|
||||
|---------|----------------------|
|
||||
| Dropbox | `!B2F#czqpnKB:dropbox` |
|
||||
| GitHub | `!B2F#czqpnKB:github` |
|
||||
|
||||
They are based on the same root and just use the service name as a suffix. That's what I used to do before using a password manager because it was easy to remember: once you memorised the root, you just had to know where you wanted to log in.
|
||||
|
||||
I had a complex root composed of random letters, digits and special characters. But if any of the services were compromised, my root was compromised too and the attacker could gain access to my other accounts with very little effort.
|
||||
|
||||
A password manager abstracts everything for you and makes it **very easy** to generate unique, long and complex passwords **without the need to remember them all**. You just have to remember the password to your password manager and let it handle the rest for you.
|
||||
|
||||
Most password managers also allow you to store other items such as notes, credit cards or identities to help you fill forms.
|
||||
|
||||
## Bitwarden
|
||||
Bitwarden is my password manager of choice because it's a **free and open source software**. The clients are under the GPL and the server code is under AGPL, both guarantee you an access to the source code and the freedom to modify it yourself for your own use or redistribute your modified version.
|
||||
|
||||
It offers a **free plan** that is very convenient and in no way limited like others (looking at you Dashlane, making us pay $40/year to sync passwords). With the free version of Bitwarden, you can store as many passwords as you want, you can sync them between as many devices as you want (smartphone, laptop, desktop, tablet, …). It also generates random passwords for you so you don't have to roll your face over your keyboard when creating an account.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you can host it yourself, meaning that if you don't trust the online Bitwarden service to store your passwords, you can run it on your own server or at home. I see this more useful for **enterprises** that will want to store their passwords on-premise but technical individuals can also take advantage of this and not be dependent on a third-party service for their password management.
|
||||
|
||||
Oh, I mentioned a free plan but to support Bitwarden you can subscribe to a Premium offer. It costs **less than a dollar per month** ($10/year) and it offers:
|
||||
|
||||
* reports on the content of your vault (e.g.: exposed or weak passwords)
|
||||
![Bitwarden Logo](3.svg)
|
||||
* 1GB of encrypted file storage
|
||||
* TOTP code generation

CodinGame is a coding platform on which you can solve puzzles by writing a program in the language of your choice. They also often host contests in which your code fights against that of other developers. The most matches you win, the most points you get. And the most points you get, the higher you climb on the leaderboard. I like to participate in these challenges, so I signed up for the latest one: CodinGame Spring Challenge 2020.

### Finding a software
|
||||
I used various CAD software during my studies, mainly SolidWorks and SolidEdge, but these are both expensive and way overkill pieces of software. I had to find a free alternative (as in free beer), preferably free (as in [free software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software)) and open source.
|
||||
![Freebox Delta S Server](7.png), preferably free (as in [free software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software)) and open source.

||||
I first tried [FreeCAD](https://www.freecadweb.org/), which ticks all the boxes. It also has a rich community, a great [documentation](https://wiki.freecadweb.org/) and tutorials. I had a couple of issues (visual glitches, and a crash) which made me look for another CAD software.

At first, I didn't think I needed a budget. After all, I didn't have any "money problems". I could buy what I needed without having to pay attention to every euro and I could also afford some extras sometimes. But I didn't have any plan for my money. It just sat in my saving and checking account.
|
||||
|
||||
YNAB's four rules (that you can apply without using the software at all) brought more visibility and more clarity over what my money could do for me. They have a really nice page on their website that explains everything in detail, you can check it out [here](https://www.youneedabudget.com/the-four-rules/). Here's a quick summary of what these rules mean to me.

|
|||
* It's easy to set up.
|
||||
* It's very low maintenance. I basically check for an update every now an then but otherwise I pretty much let it live its own life.
|
||||
* You can set it up in a privacy preserving way by choosing what statistics/logs you want to collect:

* Did I mention it blocks ads? That works everywhere and especially well coupled with other solutions such as [uBlock Origin](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/), [Privacy Badger](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-badger17/) or [Ghostery](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ghostery/) in your browser but it also in some of your smartphone apps 😁
|
||||
* Since it caches the DNS responses, it also improves a tiny bit your browsing speed and prevents your FAI or another DNS server to spy on you too much. And it reduces your footprint by sending less data on the internet. That's not why I primarily use it but it's a little bonus.

A few weeks ago, I replaced my trusty [Synology DS216play](/synology-nas-stream-and-backup/) with a more powerful station that I built myself. I hadn't built a computer in a long time and it was a lot of fun!

I chose to go team red this time because I never used an AMD processor. I picked a Ryzen 5 3400G which should be more than enough for the next few years. A quick detour on the specs:

I experienced some issues with my UPS though. TrueNAS allows you to monitor the state of a USB UPS and gracefully shutdown the system when it's on battery or when it reaches low battery. This is very useful to prevent data loss. It also sends you an email when something bad happens (UPS in bad state, UPS doesn't respond, etc). The state is polled every 2 seconds by default. My UPS decided it was a bit too much and the monitoring service *in the UPS* failed in the night after running a couple of hours. I woke up with an inbox full of alert emails (*one per minute* of supposed outage). The fix was relatively easy: set the polling interval to a higher value like 15 seconds, so the UPS doesn't feel DOSed. I'm not running a datacenter and my server doesn't draw too much power compared to the UPS capacity so I'm not concerned about the UPS failing within 15 seconds in case of a power outage.

This server will allow me to experiment more freely. I used to rent a VPS for always on services but now I can just pop them onto this machine. One detail though: FreeNAS is based on [FreeBSD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBSD). FreeBSD is *not* a GNU/Linux distribution though there are some similarities. It's a system I've never administrated before and it can be a bit confusing when popping into the command line. On the other hand, if you have a pretty standard setup, you never see FreeBSD as everything can be managed through the GUI.

This setup served me well for many months but it recently started to fail and I don't understand why yet. I just have a cryptic error on my Mac telling that the backup couldn't complete.

I'll have to investigate this issue further, but I'm not too stressed either. All of my documents live in the cloud and my code projects are pushed on remote git repositories. The only thing I'll lose if my computer gets stolen is a bunch of stickers I really like and a few hours to set a new one up.

After a month of job hunting, I'm happy to report that I'll be joining [OVHcloud](https://ovhcloud.com) in April! They have offices in Lyon so the remoteness shouldn't be an issue, though the people I'll be teaming up with are distributed in France and Canada. I've been hired as a software developer & site reliability engineer. I'll be mostly developing in Go and Python.
