You're right, I was not factoring in the effiency of the generation process. 100 W is definitely moderate or higher for most people. This was the first time I had seen a cycle desk and I find the idea really interesting. Having done a

Very cool! I'm curious about the effect this has had on your fitness. 60 W output on a bike is pretty low intensity exercise for most people, but 15-20 hours a week is a lot of volume. Did you have to work up to that? Where did you sta

A similar problem exists with that analysis. Tesla ownership is probably correlated to the amount of time/miles spent in driving conditions where Autopilot is effective. You also add a whole bunch of other confounding factors if you&#x

by scott00 3y ago
The data analysis is not straightforward. You would expect a driver's decision to use Autopilot to be correlated with the ability of the Autopilot to handle the conditions. So just comparing Autopilot accidents per mile to human accide

Passkeys are Webauthn credentials, but Webauthn credentials are not necessarily Passkeys. As best I can tell, Passkeys are _discoverable_ Webauthn credentials. Most hardware tokens don't support discoverable credentials.

The comparison makes sense in the context of Sierra Leone, where the study was done. The full article mentions that there are very few surgeons there, and that basic surgeries are usually done by general MDs or ACs, the types of training co

I think you're right about discoverability being a key property differentiating Passkeys from WebAuthn credentials, I got that one wrong. I think the other ones would be it's likely syncable across devices, and likely requires som

The passkey itself is an encryption key. When you register a passkey to access a site, the component that holds the passkey generates a site-specific asymmetric encryption keypair. It then gives the site the (unencrypted) public key, and th

There's a much simpler legal rationale for simply ignoring the debt ceiling than the 14th amendment. The constitution allocates both spending and borrowing power to Congress. The executive has some discretion, but largely _has_ to spen

Your guess is correct, the expiration is what adds the security. The main security need this is addressing is terminating access to ex-employees/contractors given a requirement for shared credentials. If the shared credentials are not

There was certainly worry about this earlier, though I don't know if there was any research done. My parents limited screen time when I was growing up (born 1985). I do think there's been a substantial change in child-targeted med

It seems like they collected 5 screen time data points[0] but only present analysis of the first, collected at 12 months of age. Did I just miss the other analyses? Assuming I didn't, is it too cynical of me to infer that they ran the

There is exactly one investment strategy that presents no risk of ruin for a bank: depositing all customer deposits in the bank's account at the fed. That investment strategy is so discouraged by regulators that they literally denied t

Increased housing prices definitely and directly cause inflation. Housing is in the neigborhood of 40% of the CPI basket, and even more of core CPI.

I think that people have been using the book value as of 31 Dec 2022. Probably lower now. The equity was trading around 9 billion on Friday, but traders could have been pricing in the assumption that the AT1s were getting written down even

Not who you're responding to, but I actually don't think getting rid of fractional reserve banking is as crazy as it may sound at first. Maybe people who need to borrow money for 10 years shouldn't be borrowing it from people

Can you give more details on the "1 TB per user pool for shared office resources"? I always thought there was a user-level limit of 1 TB for OneDrive, and a organization-level limit of 1 TB + (10 GB)*(number of users) for Sharepoi

The pilots have the necessary information and know how to do the calculation with pencil and paper if necessary. But computers can do the calculation faster and with less chance of error. And a computer in a vendor's data center is eas

There's also been a steady increase in the difficulty of obtaining a license over the years. My grandfather started driving at 14; at the time you didn't even need a license to drive. My parents were required to pass a written tes

To have a debate about this we really need to add some precision to some of your terms. When you talk about "complete liquidation of assets" there's sort of two things that come to mind, and I'm not 100% sure what you me

The most important thing is to have enough RAM that you don't have substantial swapping. For me that's at least 32 GB currently, running a heavy IDE (Visual Studio) and a hefty helping of Electron apps. Adjust down if you use vi a

Yep, that's how I figured out what the heck was actually going on. I agree it's readable and clear, but it is not concise: 58 pages.
