how do you program anything to have a "fire if human is dead" logic? By definition it will accidentally fire sometimes when the human isn't actually dead and then, ugh, so embarrassing having to tell everyone you are still alive.

- clort 7y agoSo make it more complex and have it "fire if human is not in touch" then. Have it give some level of notification that there is a problem needing human attention and that if possible, they should get in touch with you. You could give out keys to a secret (see: Shamirs Secret Sharing) so that if a few people got together then they could find out more but don't tell them who the others are (if they are likely to be at your memorial they will find each other). Give out secrets in sequence so that the longer it goes on, the more people get involved - tell the later ones who the earlier ones are. I guess it doesn't have to be all-or-nothing on the first day the software misses you?
- nonbirithm 7y agoGoogle has a feature you can enable where if they detect no activity on your account they will send several notifications over a set period of time, like 6 months or so. If you respond to none of them then they will give access to your account to people you configure. Essentially you have to ask yourself if there will be a period of time in the future where you know won't use your account for that long. If so then you should disable the feature.
