A lot of them -- the whole "phishing" thing happens to crypto users with regularity, and often for surprisingly large amounts. Usually not the single-victim/cause $100mm+ hacks, but lots of $1-5mm losses. The "new&quot

I live ~10m away from my territory's biggest airport so I guess I'm spoiled on local rentals that way. But I was mainly thinking about the long-distance road trip use case for a vehicle, in which case an hour+ trip to the airport

Lockdown prevents new enrollment in MDM/adding profiles, but you can use an MDM you're already enrolled in. It's pretty good from a security perspective. What I dislike is that it applies to all devices in your iCloud profil

I rent cars approximately all the time (I live on an island, so when I go anywhere, it's by air, and except for NYC, I always get a car wherever I go). Maybe 20 rentals/yr, a few years it was 50+ rentals. Any of the big company &q

I just got my "configure your Cybertruck" email. Unfortunately, I have an outdoor parking spot in a rented apartment and running power to charge there would be difficult/impossible. Yet, I would like a cybertruck. I am going

Screwed up thing is the hiring conditions today are almost the opposite of 2020, so it would work great now (lots of entry to mid level jobs open, more comfort with remote than in <2020, etc.)

I know a fair number of people who have had no problem after (old) drug or DUI or violence convictions, but I usually hear about them in the context of "15 years ago I...". I don't know more current who isn't just a cor

The complexity of deployed identification/auth chain/secrets management/ec. is pretty terrifying; even if you can somehow understand it for one OS and hardware platform, if your service needs to support multiple OSes plus web

Device bound is to a specific piece of hardware (whether it supports reinstallation at some level is debatable but I wouldn't use the term for it; Signal is essentially single-concurrent-device-limited even though it has migration capa

Don't they work pretty portably within Apple iCloud keychain or Google equivalent (but only one)? I think some of the legacy password managers are supporting this as well, although my preferred self-hosted vaultwarden option doesn&#x2

Is Amazon equity still backloaded as much as it was before (10% after year 1, 20% after year two, 30%, 40%, vs the 4/1 standard at most other companies)?

Working at a tech giant for 1-4 years and then going off to do your own startup (or jump to another startup) doesn't seem bad in anyway. Different from spending a 20-40 year career at one place, but...

Main thing induction seems actually worse for is being able to lift the pan above cooking surface and differentially heat different parts of the pan, particularly useful for Chinese/wok cooking.

I was at ACM Copenhagen although more downstairs at ASHES (which my company sponsored) and DeFi. Ryan Hurst who was there is probably the best person to ask about the specific certification use cases. But overall -- I work for an insurer.

Qty 1, $80 seems tolerable for a dev device. They should explicitly list 10 for $500 and 100 for $3000 or something though. This is competing with $5-30K HSMs as well as $30-400 "hardware wallets" or second factor keys, as well a

If they could add some hardware tamper-evidence/tamper-response (design-to-meet FIPS 140-3 level 3 or EAL whatever, although no need to actually get certified), this could be super useful as a cheap application-specific HSM (which can

I mostly stopped reading it in ~2021/2022, but from ~2015-2021 it was getting progressively more hostile to tech, fearful of anything new, etc. I skimmed the online list of articles for the past few months and it does look better (but

Actually worse than that, former employee phished for credentials, per Ledger themselves. Underlying cause is utter incompetence by company, 4th strike.
