This seems to be the description of SSH keys capabilities except the user does not control them. Why did they not just use SSH keys? They are much more familiar, and all major bugs are already squashed for years.

What problem does passkey solve? Passwords and SSH keys already exist, and I have no problem with them.

Judging by AMD's Q2 financials, there most probably isn't insatiable demand for EPYC CPUs right now. But probably AMD won't sell the chips with discount as Threadrippers, either because they already sit finalized in EPYCs in

GPU cores are not CPUs, otherwise we could run Linux and a shell on them. GPU core is much simpler than a CPU, that's why there can be so many of them on the die.

That's great. What's the build quality, is it creaky/plasticky like the cheap ones in 2010's, or are they now making it rigid/sturdy like Thinkpads were? (Didn't buy laptop for a looong time.)

There is EM induction happening in the stator coils, but it is not substantial to how the motor effect comes about. This effect is due to magnetic force of the coil poles acting on the permanent magnets, no induction is needed to create thi

If designed well, this type of motor could do regenerative braking too. It's a matter of proper control of current in the stator and rotor and their phase difference, thus mostly electronics.

I don't see it. In a brushless DC magnet rotor, there is little energy loss, the magnets aren't very conductive. Here, we have additional current and newly introduced Joule losses in the rotor. It is not clear that these can be k

Indeed, BLDC doesn't use EM induction to excite the rotor, instead it uses directly macroscopic magnetic force due to current in stator acting on the permanent magnets in the rotor. The EM induction is present in the winding of the sta

How do you improve the latency? Especially reacting to mouse and keyboard, I have an old PC which could use that.
