Ok, no Esteban today, so I decided to go through some rather old jira cases that are on hold. Just to make sure I work during the work hours.
Then we had a meeting ("planning"), where Brad promised me to provide me with information, and also said that he updated the jira case.
I checked out what he wrote. Just a one-liner, which basically contradicts all the shit that Esteban wrote.
Later he called via slack; we huddled; and it turned out that all I need is, instead of returning some unencrypted data "in headers", return it in a cookie, encrypted - in a new endpoint.
Oh, big deal. It turned out that the old one was also returning stuff in a cookie (where else, if we talk to a client in a browser?).
So I enjoyed slapping together all this functionality; sent the PR to Brad, not for review, but for reference. Will add tests tomorrow, then make the pr available for review and merge.
BTW, Esteban asked almost exactly that - "do something Wednesday". It's just that Esteban does not know what he's talking about. How come Janet can exchange information (and enjoy the way I document stuff, in clear English), and he just does not seem to understand what he's saying. And does not interact. I'll have to keep that in mind.
But whatever, I enjoyed these couple of hours of writing code, maintaining the style and avoiding duplication.
