They do have a lot of very weird abbreviations, like in the getting-started/install page there are options for: MacOS (Intel/AMD) (...=> amd macs? I guess hackintosh?), Linux AMD (no Intel this time?) I get they are abbreviatin

Not really. A password is meant to be memorized and reproduced correctly regularlt, whereas a recovery key doesn't need that and can be very long and complicated since it is rarely used.

Not really, the technology behind passkeys behave kind of like managed ssh keypairs. While they can be designed to have the secrets cloud synced (just lile how you can sync your ssh private keys), there's nothing preventing them from b

Recovery code system? Like 2FA today, generate a special bootstrap key you can print and save. This isn't that uncommon. Things like disk encryption also do this (e.g. bitlocker)

Technologically there's nothing really bad about them (imagine a managed version of ssh keypairs). Technically they could even be backed by physical devices like Yubikeys and never touch the cloud. My worry is the actual implementation

I'm pretty sure passkeys are just a rebranded version of virtual WebauthN tokens. So while passkey secrets can be synced (unlike U2F physical tokens) they can also be implemented as being backed by a physical token (think Yubikey) that

I'm guessing this is for Taobao? They do stylize the term they use for products. The more accurate translation would have be "precious/treasure" -- i.e., Shop for [Treasure]. (Taobao lit. means to [Pan] for [Treasure]) I

This is really interesting if you consider a different vertical, like competitive gaming. The whole concept around that is that, monetizing "functionality" would be unfair (breaks balance), so the healthy strategy is actually mone

That's assuming software is static. Write once, release it, and anything further is someone else's problem. Is that how software development works today?

For sure, but things are still evolving and evolution is messy. FWIW, I'd probably be considered a JavaScript luddite these days lol. When I build my own projects, I write vanilla ES5 (yes, 5). No tooling. No frameworks. No compiler. J

Sure but it's a bit misleadingly reductive to both say that "only the end product matters, intermediate steps should just keep adapting to be the most optimal in producing that product" while also complaining about the exact

There is one above in the server/homelab space. Items like memory and storage are charged huge markups* so if you need a lot of capacity of those you are going to quickly get into the 10x range! As for longevity, if you consider softwa

Not sure where you got the impression of that? There do not exist "equivalent"s to any Apple devices (I don't see them licensing the M1/2 chips to anyone else anytime soon). But depending on what you care about, a "

See, here's where the undefined nature of things comes in. "Comparably spec'd" needs to be conditioned on what task you're aiming for. A "pure gold hammer" is a terrible idea and would also be terribly exp

I'm guessing that's for a model with 8G memory? In my experience the experience for those is quite bad, as you're sharing that 8G across both the CPU and GPU... Judging from the OP's post of 2.3k€, they're probably

Unfortunately, Apple machines are usually 4 - 10 times more expensive, making this choice still quite difficult.

This is exactly what U2F protects you from! You can actually safely plug U2F tokens into random computers and rest assured that the keys inside cannot be cloned. This provides security guarantees above and beyond that of physical keys! In f

Right, but an 8G RPi is $75 MSRP, so this is over a 30% - 50% higher cost! For most projects that really _need_ a Pi (for the GPIO, CSI etc.), most don't require the 8G version, and you can get by with a 2 or 4G which is closer to $50

Are you saying they don't use any physical keys? That would be surprising to me... I've found it really easy to teach non-technical people how to use U2F tokens. Just tell them it's like a door key but instead of plugging it

Wait how do you get a N5105 at $75? The lowest I've seen still go for over $100 and they're barebones units. x86 pricing is getting down to ARM SBC levels for sure, especially considering the recent rounds of decomissioning older
