The blog entry is old but still applies; I can successfully wget or curl the http version, so it doesn't seem to be generalized problem (although it may still be more general than just you). Feel free to reach out to dom@w3.org if you want a more private discussion 🙂

The best practices for editors cover topics ranging from how to structure a specification to how to quality-check it and how to manage input and feedback.

During #w3ctpac2018, @fantasai and @marcosc (another prolific editor, and maintainer of the widely used ReSpec tool to edit specifications) animated a breakout to present and discuss shared best practices for editors. w3.org/2018/10/24-tpac-minut…
Unless you've been involved in standardization efforts, you may not know the key role spec editors play in the making of a @w3c standard. Not only do they turn ideas and discussions in concrete documents, but they very often generate most of the ideas and animate the discussions!
In this last video from our series of #w3ctpac2018 interviews, @fantasai, @csswg editor extraordinaire, shares some of the best practices editors should follow when writing specifications

Release notes are now available for Safari Technology Preview release 71 including Dark Mode enhancements, Web Animations, Intersection Observer, new experimental features for Web Authentication, and an experimental Audits tab in Web Inspector. webkit.org/blog/8517/release…
While #WebAuthn is an important tool, it is always important to remember that #security should be incorporated into every step of how software is designed and developed
The #WebAuthn API helps to eliminate passwords entirely. #Webauthn can be used both in single factor and multi-factor authentication schema. See different usage demos at webauthn.io/
As passwords can be insecure or hard to remember, #developers have also to worry about all the complications of passing passwords through systems and safely storing them in databases (about 81% of all hacking-related breaches leverage stolen or weak #passwords)
The Web Authentication #API (also known as #WebAuthn) allows servers to register and authenticate users using public key #cryptography instead of a #password
#WebAuthn enables strong authentication using securely-held public keys with user content, rather than #passwords - given how fragile passwords are, this is a pretty big deal.
