I was under the impression that it was all stored in the iPhone's secure element, which is part of the main processor? But they're paired cryptographically - to ensure the data isn't faked. And I would think there is some cal

That would indicate an issue - i.e. something we don't want. Just that it's not something where an engineer needs to go and mop up, and in theory would continue to operate correctly indefinitely. I guess correct as in - safe but n

All forms of FIDO2 authentication do fundamentally rely on being able to trust the browser to not misrepresent the "relying party" (the RP, aka the registered domain, github.com in this case) They are phishing resistant, even when

I tend to think of "warning" as - "something unexpected happened, but it was handled safely" And then "error" as - "things are not okay, a developer is going to need to intervene" And errors then spli

On all their websites. Microsoft is quite a bad offender of this also.

Yeah, I think the way gofmt does it is basically perfect - leading whitespace is tabs and respects user width preference, alignment across lines is achieved with spaces

It also can't change at this point. Their flavor is recognized all over the world and many customers wouldn't be happy if it changed. But it's nice to have the blonde roast option at least!

Uh, might be really bad timing on that integration there, as indeed PayPal has been a major missing option for Stripe for a very long time. But that actually changed extremely recently. PayPal is now fully supported with Stripe, even paymen

It used to. They have largely changed that now - all data is deleted once the last app from a given vendor has been deleted (though it's not instant, and seems to apply weirdly on TestFlight + ad-hoc builds)

That's not really fingerprinting - it's just ensuring your login is consistent against the apps of a single vendor I don't think Apple are aiming to change that with this

Although you're right that Apple Pay is cryptographically verified, you may be surprised to know these two things: 1. you can charge any amount - the amount shown in the Apple Pay UI is arbitrary 2. you can make multiple charges, also

Surprised for that to happen from an Apple TV+ series. I was under the impression all voice assistants had a standard way to play inaudible sound to briefly disable their activation for this exact situation

Both the 4080 and the 4090 are very expensive, but the 4080 is pretty universally considered to be much worse value for money.

Lots and lots of YouTube reviewers give their opinions and various benchmark-oriented stats around this. Gamers Nexus are pretty good in my view (though their videos tend to take a long time to not say a whole lot)

Surprised he went with a 4080 rather than a 4090. The budget would have covered it, and the performance per $ is much better

You could always manage your packages and their dependencies yourself. Or you could release a new package manager which does provide support for that functionality, build out a team of maintainers, and stay on top of all the releases

Perhaps their thinking is that the kind of people who are into the Steam Deck (especially those who might want to tinker with it a bit) are the same kind of people who might consider a laptop like this. It seems a lot of the idealogical app
