In ASP.NET Core 8, Microsoft added a new authentication handler named BearerToken. In this blog post, I will explain how it works and its purpose.

Cool blog post, it brings back memories!

I wrote a blog post for some time ago titled "How I built my own Sega Mega Drive hardware dev kit from scratch" https://nestenius.se/2022/01/18/how-i-built-my-own-sega-mega...

My blog, https://nestenius.se/ where I blog about Authentication, authorization and other related .NET topics.

About 30 years ago I reverse-engineered my Sega Mega Drive game console and built my own hardware dev kit from scratch. I did blog about that project here: https://nestenius.se/2022/01/18/how-i-built-my-own-sega-mega...

Struggled to troubleshoot Jwtbearer authentication problems in ASP.NET? I’ve written about some of the best step-by step ways to do so in this blog post.

This blog post clarifies the various resource concepts in Duende IdentityServer, including IdentityResources, ApiResources and ApiScopes.

I was in the same situation for 10 years ago, I did not want or like talking in front of people. But I today have the mantra "You should do the things you are afraid of more often!" and of course I started easy, learning beginners programming and if you know your stuff then the fun is how to break down a concept and try to explain it,.

Yes, I do work a lot as a trainer and doing presentations, so most of the time I actually do present them. Perhaps 80% of what I do is actually presented once or many time. Often I create a class or presentation in something that I am curious about, for example for 2 years ago I went deep into OpenID-Connect, creating training material and also continued to keep my knowledge fresh by answering questions on Stack overflow in just that specific topic, earning me a bronze badge in the topic recently.

Its a challenge to break down a complex concept into suitable "parts" and create a good story, but as time goes you get better and better at it.

For something that I really want to learn, then my approach is to create presentations or training material on the specific topic.

Like recently I wanted to learn HTTP/2 and gRPC, so I wrote some PowerPoints explaining those concepts and know I grok the fundamentals of those topics. My core mantra nowadays is "You don't know anything until you can explain it".

If I forget something I can always go back to my presentations, that are now the same as my notes.

Original author here, wow! What a cool project!

There are a few other projects I did listed here https://nestenius.se/about/ Besides that, my biggest project so far is that I created a developer community around 1996 called Programmers Heaven that became my main living for many years :-)

Author here, wire-wrapping is like therapy for your mind! like solving a sudoku!

Author here, never anticipated 30 years ago that someone else would actually look at the code :-)

The Sega Mega drive was a very robust machine and it did survive numerous short-circuits over the years and even today it still works!. but yes, I have blown numerous PC-motherboards over the years though... I guess that comes with the trade! One time I damaged my motherboard that was powered-off by using the vacuum cleaner to get rid of the dusts from one of the fans. The spinning of the fan resulted in a power-surge that damaged my motherboard :-(

Yes, I could run games and I also wrote some simpler demos where I for example could move a player around the screen using the joystick. So, it was fully functional.

Original blog post author here! Thanks for the kind words!

Original blog post author here! Thanks! :-) Perhaps its not to late to build that bird feeder :-)

Tinkering with hardware back then was much easier because the frequency of the devices was pretty low (like 1-8 MHz) and the interfaces and system bus was much easier to work with compared to todays advanced protocols like (USB, etherhet...)

Blog post author here. I used it just to reduce the stress on the vertical circuit board.

Wow! Nice hardware!

Author of the blog post here. Thanks, it was a quite long project, but the device have a pretty simple and plain architecture that made it easy. Todays consoles are much harder to hack, due to multiple layers of encryption and protection.

Author of the blog post here. Yes, I basically emulated the cartridge rom using static memory. That was the simplest at the time.

Awesome blog posts! I also posted about how I built my own hardware development kit at https://nestenius.se/2022/01/18/how-i-built-my-own-sega-mega...
