Turning this thread into a weird anti-NYC rant is certainly a choice.

It's less that there is something unreasonable sounding about it and more that there's almost nothing that sounds reasonable about it. It's like you suggested that instead of setting speed limits, we directly tie the maximum

To be blunt, because it sounds insane and simultaneously solving the problem at the wrong abstraction level, and based on criteria that have nothing to do with age. Age-based IP ranges? This sounds like a recipe for reinventing the entire

mTLS is no good because the target service could then uniquely identify you. I think you explicitly want a three-party scheme where the target service just accepts the idp's assertion about your age in a cryptographically secure way.

That's quite an elaborate system. It goes through a lot of gyrations (not the least of which is inventing a whole new type of crime and passing laws about it) and doesn't sound even as strong as the age verification "require

I was thinking someone like Auth0 might want to offer it. They are not in the business of invasive user tracking but are in the business of trust.

This makes me wonder if there's a business case for a privacy-preserving identity service which does age verification. Say you have a strong identity provider that you have proven your age to. Just as the 3rd party site could use SSO

The way I read his statement was as a joke. He wasn't a dumb guy. Surely he would have had the thought that if God is all-knowing, you obviously can't "fool" God by simply mouthing the right words right before you die.

I suspect this tendency is not correlated to political leaning in any way, and the suggestion that it is says more about how you want to perceive people of a particular leaning than anything about them.

"Men are nice to you because of sex," is not an argument that women have it easy compared to men. It's another joke about men being idiots.

"Now shipping?" I do not see evidence of that. I am not even convinced the one you can test ride has this battery tech. They announced this same bike at least a year ago with regular LIon batteries.

Yes, when I see hubless wheels, my immediate thought is, "why did they spend engineering time on this when their goal was completely unrelated to it?" It makes me think they needed a smokescreen.

Neat. I like that multiple clients get the same websocket data, as opposed to each just running their own simulation. I will be watching https://lotteryeverysecond.lffl.me/wins with interest. ;)

You're making the same point as the person you're responding to. They're saying seniors are allowed to ask dumb questions. It's junior who are often afraid to do so.

On the other hand, if you are communicating with a bunch of people who share that primary domain, it can be a useful way of making a point. (unless that primary domain tends to attract a lot of people who tend to the hyper-literal /s)
