They just meant that things now happen within fractions of a time slice, instead of always landing on exactly 1/60th of a second boundaries.

I don't see it mentioned in the thread, so I'll link to ESPHome. It is an incredible platform when you just want to read some sensors or put some relays or switches onto the network, integrates with Home Assistant. One of the mo

Technically speaking this demo is close to brilliant, really well done. Most polished AI music generator I've seen yet. But the marketing copy really feels off to me. "Bringing the joy of music making to everyone." The joy o

Just the end of the new software lifecycle: company revokes access and it disappears forever.

Perhaps to teach programming at the university level we will need to better mimic real world software development. I always found the 300-line assignments to be a poor practice for the real job where you have 100k LOC legacy systems. We sh

You should take a look at https://sequencer.party Collaborative real-time audio/video/midi platform that supports VST-like web plugins (the WebAudio Module 2, or WAM2, standard)

One time I had a king sized (foam) mattress delivered for next day with prime. It was huge and heavy, the postman could just drag it from the truck into our garage, cursing. Shipping was $2.99

https://sequencer.party It is a modular audio/video/midi environment that supports Google Docs-like multiplayer, and supports third-party plugins (a format called Web Audio Modules 2 -- like VST or AU but for the web).

Have you seen an optometrist? I delayed getting glasses for a very long time, and the change was shocking from the moment the optometrist dialed in my prescription. Suddenly I knew what it was to see clearly again. 10/10 would recomme

Definitely - and I think now that I've gone to that 2FA page and let it time out (since I only have backup codes), I think it's racheted up suspicion higher as these login attempts count as "an attacker has the password but n

In this particular case I feel like it's a bug that backup codes are not treated as secure as 2fa codes, and that I need explicitly a 2fa code to disable 2fa is just broken (in my specific case)

I use fastmail almost entirely, this is a historical account. My wife just happened to share something to my Google docs leading me to log into this mess today

The backup codes are what enabled me to log in, thankfully, so I know they work. Thanks for the takeout advice.. onto that now!

by gravitronic 4y ago
So weird, because I cannot! Maybe it's because I haven't used a 2FA code on this account in the past year? I typically stay logged out of my Google account and just have the email forwarded to another provider.

How does one contact support? Every path I've tried leads to a support community forum. I haven't tried posting there yet as I assumed it was a black hole. Are you saying that that works?

Thanks for the followup. I'm also on desktop. When I click the second link, I'm forced to reauthenticate. During that reauthentication my only option for 2-factor auth is... a valid 2FA code. Backup codes are not allowed. I sus

Wow, that's.. even worse than my experience. It would probably work if you used the official browser, it's not a bad idea for the website to block webviews. But pretty funny that their app uses a webview which the service then bl

I cannot access the Two Factor authentication page at all - it is when attempting to access that page that I'm forced to log in again and provide a 2FA code.

by gravitronic 4y ago
Hey, thank you so much for trying to help me. On what page do you see the Authenticator app listed? I suspect it's on the "Two Factor Auth" page. My problem is that I cannot even load that page. I click on "Security&q

I have 2FA backup codes! They let me log into my account! But using only backup codes, I cannot remove the lost 2FA. So now I have 8 consumable backup codes and after that I will not be able to access the account. To remove the lost 2FA,

If you lose your U2F security key, are you sure you'll be able to remove it from your Google account? Because what I'm experiencing right now is that they support TOTP and you can't remove it if you lose it..

Good idea! That had never occurred to me before this incident.

by gravitronic 4y ago
It would be useful if people went to their Google Account page, clicked the Security tab, then tried to access the Two Factor Auth page and reported back what options they had to authenticate. Do you have options other than "enter a t

Side-comment: is there a type of shadowban with HN where my posts do not make it into the frontpage, even 2 or 3 or more pages deep? I've seen this with a few of my posts recently where they appear in the 'new' and 'show

by gravitronic 4y ago
Yeah, apparently that 2FA handshake is crucial with some providers. I was not expecting this, I thought careful management of my 2FA backup codes would suffice!
