Other issues aside, a person could not pass a driving vision test wearing Vision Pro. Its resolution is great but not that great, especially in extreme lighting. You also lose most of your peripheral vision while wearing it. A future model

The “saving X bytes saves Y emitted carbon” trope is a pet peeve of mine. Nobody knows how much carbon a request’s full internet transmission path, storage, and possible 24/7 availability of a server consume. Stacks are too different,

I’ve earned Storj for years by renting excess hard drive space to store other people’s files. Having a native currency lets you innovate in some unique ways. Microtransactions are not practical with credit cards and other traditional settle

This might be due to how outrageous Cloudflare’s pricing is for protecting non-HTTP services like SSH (Cloudflare Spectrum.)

Self-hosting is key for us as well. Companies working with sensitive data really value "on-device" / "on-premises" architecture, which it looks like you're close to nailing. Check out Bitwarden and Gitlab'

You don't have to be doing anything wrong. You only need to appear suspicious to a compliance algorithm and you're suddenly unbanked with no explanation or recourse. Today's banks are over-compliant and won't care to dig

If they intended to protect humanity this was a misfire. OpenAI is one of many AI companies. A board coup which sacrifices one company's value due to a few individuals' perception of the common good is reckless and speaks to their

That is indeed his side of the story and he broke the news first. Ratings or personality may have been factors, but when fired it is common to lean into PR.

People were very hesitant to enter their credit card numbers into any website. This is a financial technology, it will bring more risks and justified hesitancy until the right projects iterate past the tests of time. We’re in the MVP stage

Some projects aim to be that. This is a stablecoin backed by a centralized entity, it was not intended to be a decentralized project. All cryptocurrencies are not the same.

This an evidence of gaping holes in digital consumer rights. People bought eShop software and physical hardware that they can no longer use or update. Regulators should force companies to open source any games and associated server software

Google will not share how threat actors are pulling it off but it definitely is happening. (see the Terpin v. AT&T lawsuit for why they might not be disclosing the vector) There are "fingerprint" cookie marketplaces that sell

You'd be surprised at the typical profile of a crypto scam victim. I trace cryptocurrency professionally and try to help as many victims as possible. Most that I meet are far from the "crypto bro" archetype. Often they are pe

Be careful, I trace cryptocurrency for scam and hack victims and have personally seen GV transfers used in attacks. The lack of a physical SIM does not give more safety. "SIM Swap" means "convincing a system or human to trans

The gcsfuse k8s CSI also works well if you build to expect occasional timeouts. It is a shame that a reliable S3-compatible alternative does not yet exist in the open source realm.

Complete reliance on biometrics to establish “personhood” is not only ableist but also opens some really frightening doors to future bad actors, like the removal of eyes as a means to revoke access/rights. Let’s reduce an oppressor’s c

A fun toy. Until the long list of third party pro audio interface drivers and plug-ins work on iPad, this will only be useful for the (large) prosumer market. It would be killer if this supported Dante over Ethernet at 96khz.
