My biggest gripe with passkeys is that the spec seems to force non-interoperability. I use a password manager and I would have no issue storing a private key in a profile there, but I am literally not allowed to be able to copy the private

I'd be interested, but they don't even list any anthropic model on their code review benchmark, so I feel like they haven't really tested their benchmark on SOTA models.

Why would I ever connect my fridge to the internet? I cannot fathom any feature on a fridge that would incline me towards giving it the wifi credentials.

Well, I think that justice has been served. The feds' prosecution of Ulbricht was the epitome of throwing the book at someone to make an example, when the government's case was pretty flawed, in my opinion. 10 years is enough time

As someone who is wading through a bloated Devin PR right now, this article resonates with me. A direct link might be useful to some: [1] 1: https://www.answer.ai/posts/2025-01-08-devin.html I have been surprised by th

Wow, this made me really emotional. And even though I definitely did not expect a chill Bali DJ set as the motivational link, it also resonated with me in some way. I can't think of a more honorable way to move through life. I liken th

Perhaps I am underthinking things here, but this seems like a good use case to just use UDP here. Save all the power consumed in the original connection set up and just the router will handle NAT re-allocation whenever you phone home, right

Wow, I have been looking for a resource like this for years. I had put the question more in the form of, what year did they call it in Rome what we now call the year 1 AD? Now I know it's Augustus 30 or something like that. I would lik

The existence of a configuration that limits attestation to a probabilistic phenomenon seems like a very thin foundation to stand on here - if it can be changed to requiring 100% attestation rate in the future I think it will be changed as

I have vouched for this article because it blew my mind. I had no idea that there are left-leaning, feminist-identifying women who held such views. I wish this article laid out a more substantive foundation for why the author holds their vi

How can it be possible that there is @AI tagging in groups within the E2EE context? The AI generation must run on server side, probably through an OpenAI API, so the text of the conversation must be available to the backend to be able to ge

I have personally taken a tour of the NIF at Livermore. The guide was an old hand, who constantly remarked about the efforts of NIF towards "stockpile stewardship," ie the maintenance of the US arsenal of nuclear weapons. It seeme

I have been using fastmail as a single personal account for the past year or so, so I don't have much to add to your technical assessment. However, I have been considering changing providers because of the political position of the Aus

I find this really cool, kudos to the author for trying to build up an understanding from the actual data. I find it interesting to see that the median temps in these select cities don't seem to be wandering up that much. I wonder if t

I assume you are talking about the chrome plugin "the great suspender"; I am not sure what controversy you refer to? What happened to it?

I think that it has some really nice advantages, but it has some glaring issues that make its use case somewhat limited. When you are defining some component and you can define exactly the query that the component will need in the same plac

I think the first piece of real advice I can give you is to seek therapy. Find someone who listens to you and try to explain what you are feeling to them. These problems are not unique to you, but your version of them is unique and giving p

I am with you on this. Lately I have noticed that I've googled for an issue, find a low quality site with relevant results, and later discover that it's just a copy of the GitHub issues page from the original project. Why didn&#x2

After the CSAM scanning debacle came out this year, it pushed me towards being far less reliant on any cloud servers and I set up a home NAS, transferred my photos to it, deleted everything off of my iCloud, and discontinued my subscription

I listened to Art Bell's coast to coast AM program a few times as a kid, and I think it doesn't need to much in the way of introduction. I vote that you just dive in, but I will say that just diving in is a strong bias of mine.

Airplane mode definitely does not disable Bluetooth - especially if you are using airpods or other Bluetooth headsets. BT radio will stay on so you can keep listening through the flight. WiFi is also able to be toggled on while airplane mod

I've been considering using the same sort of reverse-psychology approach on myself. I use YouTube to distract myself all the time and I'm a premium subscriber, so I don't have the friction of viewing ads. If I stop paying and

Their tactic of degrading ux when you don't give them permissions has been happening for a long time. Accounts in WhatsApp have a username, but if you don't enable contact permissions on your phone, they will only display the cont

Wow, I just saw a cluster of satellites go overhead earlier tonight. It must have been starlink. It was really really cool, and quite serendipitous for me to be camping, in a dark place, seated at the perfect angle to see them between the t

This reminds me heavily of the strange technological world of "Maniac" on Netflix, especially the computer system Gertie! I wish I could get one of these as a gift! They are hilarious.

This is a very timely article for me. I just ended a romantic relationship due to, in my perspective, a failure of communication in our disagreements. I had generally thought of myself as someone who was able to communicate clearly, in reco
