My first 3 reactions, granted coming from about a quart low on coffee were:
- What level of dumb is this?
- Does Git use Okta for logins? 
- One would think that with what Okta charges, they might have their source in a veritable fortress
Granted, this comes from a place where we don't use Git at all, except to reluctantly download packages when there is no other choice...

|
|
|
|
We currently use AWS Cognito, but were starting to look at Okta. yikes, maybe not...
|
|
|
|
|
On the bright side, Okta's source code will be given a serious review for vulnerabilities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It might hurt Oktas bizniz model. I would not regard it as a threat to security. Any good security model depends on math, not on secret algorithms.
E.g. [sufficiently] hashed passwords, or ECC [^]

What the heck is Okta? Seems like it has to do with authentication? Why do we trust these services???
|
|
|
|

I just visited their web site. It appears that they bill themselves as a "one stop shop" for all your authentication needs.
Given that they've just been hacked, I don't know what would worry more as a client - that they are using their own solution internally, or that they are not.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

It wasn't Okta that was hacked. It was GitHub.

At a guess, most members will be at home for the week between Xmas and the New year.
So ... do we want to have CCC's next week, or wait until Jan 3rd?
Vote here:
1) Use the "thumbsup" message response icon for "Continue next week"
Or
2) Use the "thumbsdown" message response icon for "Leave it till January".
[edit]
@Randor has volunteered to do the CC every day next week (The Lounge[^]) so for that option:
3) Use the "trophy" response icon to make him do 'em all!
[/edit]
For those that don't care, there are other icons - invent a festive meaning for them and use that to vote!
Voting closes at Noon GMT tomorrow so you've all got a full day. 
[edit]
I just discovered that I can't vote ... so I'll take the casting vote if it ends in a tie

I'm calling Bull sheets, there is no method for counting votes by GMT tomorrow. You are full of sheet, might be nice silky 1500 thread sheets, but it's a bunch of sheets.
I volunteer to do the CCC until January 3rd, Jesus is busy wrapping gifts and god of beginnings (Janus) will be busy opening them.
Any objections?

I've added it to the vote list!

What would happen if I violated the vote and posted a CCC during the holidays?
Would I be banned? Perhaps muted?
|
|
|
|

Nothing, probably - it's more so people know whether they can answer tomorrows if they aren't going to be available to post one next Monday.
And to see who can find a silly use for a response icon, of course.

I found a great list of religious holidays. Do you think it would be appropriate for codeproject.com to honor them all?
Religious Observances Calendar
What date should we resume the CCC based on that list?
Shall it be עשרה בטבת or Epiphany or Three Kings Day?

You missed out the Flying Spaghetti Monster, The Great Pumpkin, and the ichor god Bel-Shamharoth

I'm glad you mentioned that. It's extremely difficult to be unbiased. Let's include those religious dates:
Holy days | Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster Australia
We may need to add them into a spreadsheet, I'm having trouble remembering them all. Should we ask the codeproject staff to assist?

And May the 4th[^]

How to vote "don't care"
Never, ever, ever, ever solved one.
Mostly because I don't try anymore.
I accept eggnog donations.

Pick an icon that isn't in the list and use that, as others have done. Though it would be nice to have an explanation - I'm assuming that the ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) votes indicate that the setter should be drunk when setting them?

Whether "at work" or on vacation next week I will be at home. In either case I enjoy the puzzles.

So vote!
