You can satisfy most entropy requirements without even trying by using a password manager's "create random password" feature. I feel the more important thing to attack is making password management more approachable to laype

Hey Dustin, this is super cool. Incidentally, we just today posted Round 17 [1], so you can update your links (e.g. [2]) when you get a moment. [1] https://www.techempower.com/blog/2018/10/30/framework

There is an implication here that we (TechEmpower) have rejected PRs that would make the code in our Elixir tests more idiomatic. And if I understand you correctly, when we did so, we explained that the implementation did not comply with t

That sucks. I know it's a tired point, but it nevertheless amuses me that someone would search for BattleNet. The name is literally the domain name: battle.net.

Not only that, but a smartphone provides a spectrum of functionality and any "smart agent" function is just one of many. Many of us turn those features off, meaning that—unless the phone has been rooted or is not doing what its m

Maybe. But let's frame it differently. I want many of these things, but I want them to work on my own virtual private network—communicating exclusively with my other devices and only communicating off-network according to clear and ob

I remember that and feel it still shows several elements we're missing today: 1. Very large form factor concave displays. (We're getting closer, but the HD era really slowed display innovation.) 2. Good gesture input. 3. Seamless

I use AT&T and they removed the port 25 block on request. In my experience, they do not enforce any policies regarding self-hosting. I think they have boilerplate that they would use if one were to continuously saturate their upstream

I agree the quote is too glib. But the charitable read I have is that a "strategic decision " by definition is a choice between options that each have some pros and cons. If you end up feeling purely happy about a decision, the

As a fan of dark color themes and displays, I've shared a bunch of thoughts related to this on my personal blog. But I'd like to share a few quick thoughts below. I am not an expect on these matters, so these are just my opinion

As someone who has used a few SuperMicro boards in custom builds, I would like to know which motherboard models have been affected. It's not clear to me from the article whether that is even known at this time. I'd also like to k

If this were sufficiently streamlined, and as you say, part of the browser chrome and not in-page, I feel the same way. I want this, and I know many others do as well. This is essentially what Brave is, as I understand it. But I agree, I

Side question: Will this change see the adoption of traditional marketing and advertising tactics by Tesla? To date, it seems that word-of-mouth and hype generated by an enigmatic (charismatic to some) CEO were sufficient to spread rumors

The headline is misleading. Microsoft is suspending development of the UWP Office applications, which happen to be touch-friendly. However, the headline implies that the remaining Win32 versions do not have a touch-friendly mode, which is

Seems a better solution would be to give the user a say. If autocomplete is off, and the user wants to autocomplete the form, the user should be able to right-click in the form and select "Autocomplete this form," ideally as a on

I can appreciate your fatigue with hearing small variations on the same discussion or debate in every thread about these devices, but to discount the utility of the debate is a bit narrow-minded, in my opinion. The value of debate, even deb

Imagine if Google open-sourced their sync server as Mozilla has [1]. If you could simply specify your own sync server, I suspect a lot of the louder privacy complaints related to sync would disappear. (Obviously Google would never do this.

Agreed. However, the first and perhaps only modern user interface feature I find lacking in the screenshot is font anti-aliasing. At a regular viewing distance of about three feet, I find the text much more difficult to read than the fonts

It will inevitably disappear in time. Once we have the necessary technology to have these sensors work reliably below the display layer, that will be done. I am more concerned about the non-functional but (to me, at least) similarly bother

Sure, but to be fair, if we didn't have good checks and balances, things would have been bad a very long time ago. This isn't the first time checks and balances can/will help us avoid bad policy, and it won't be the las

That sounds awful. As an LA resident, I've long held a more general shame that LAX is such a poor airport in general. The whole experience of arriving, taxiing for 20 minutes, waiting an eternity for checked baggage in 1960s civic uti

Sorry, just a bit of silly sarcasm. It wasn't a data exfiltration and user surveillance system like modern music players.
