  1. I was stunned when I first saw this diagram and it hasn't changed in the months/years since they rolled it out, but then they never fix anything bsky.app/profile/symb... #aws #awsfail #awsconsole #ux

  2. TIL, there's a hard coded client_id in the #AWS #awsconsole for what I suspect is an AWS managed account that handles oauth2.0 for root/some login types.

    The client_id depending on the service that it first redirects looks like this arn:aws:iam:015428540659:user/s3

    Another service that I've noticed is phd-console (Which I think is AWS health dashboard).

    So in this pattern it looks like your secret access key is treated as the client secret in an authorization code flow.

    The code/access token returned by AWS is an opaque encrypted JWT.

  3. Does anyone know if there's a way to turn off this popup in AWS console, or at least keep it from switching tabs automatically? Or can tell me that there's no way to do it so I quit hoping?
