For skills, it only reads the summary telling it when to read the rest. So yes if you have too many skills, it can get confused and start reading all them and cloud the context. But if you have a few and they're used tactically, it

Yeah this is why I don't trust people saying devex is fixed on Windows now. Still doesn't properly clone git repos.

It'll work if you have a laptop on the same account, iCloud or 1password or whatever else. If you only had a phone, you set the account up again on your new phone.

TOTP is unfamiliar or hard to use for most people, so they use SMS. Most sites don't support TOTP either. Even if you use TOTP, it's not designed to be shared, for example look up what hoops you need to jump through to export a si

To make it about security on both sides: IPv4 NAT is idiot-proof. IPv6 replaced that with a firewall that may or may not be default-deny.

There have been 20 years of Iranian proxies attacking US forces, mostly after the Iraq War and during the Syrian Civil War. 2024 Hezbollah killed US troops in Jordan. Houthis also attacked US ships if you count that.

Last time wasn't 1980s. 2024 was the Iran-Israel war, but US was involved too. Iranian proxies attacked US troops then. Iran itself attacked US forces in 2020 after the US killed general Soleimani, after years of Iran's proxies at

How do you solve these problems other than memorizing every password? I guess you could keep a piece of paper with backup codes, but that works for passkeys too if you use the right manager.

Nah, TOTP was like ipv6. Passkeys have their UI issues, but at least they had syncing day 1, so they're now a serious contender to SMS auth.

I use passkeys, but the UI seems less user-friendly than SSH which is conceptually similar. When I SSH into a machine that has me in authorized_keys, it just logs me in. Passkeys are like 8 clicks telling the site and browser repeatedly tha

2FA is lowkey designed to reduce paid account sharing. It's always those services that are so eager to get people 2FA'd. Microsoft Minecraft account is the hardest thing to log into, and they even perma locked tons of people out.

I'm glad this is still a complaint. I used Office 2004 (same as 03) until 2013, when I absolutely couldn't anymore because of docx incompatibility. My wife still uses 07, sadly it's ribboned.

You can do this if you hold its hand a lot. Claude by default will do insane levels of abstraction for small things. Also make Python docstrings 3x longer than the actual code.

You said it was the UN report, and tbh I trust that more than a one-off title on an image. Maybe the "brief" pause in the UN report was 40 minutes. Either way, no mention of first responders.
