With a phone you need my passcode to accept to 2FA request (assuming lock screen notifications are disabled). I think yubikeys can work without a passcode as long you plug it in right?

Adding to your pet theory I think that WFH has led to a lot of people being casual about their workplace security. For example, leaving a laptop unattended at a Starbucks. This is just a guess but I wouldn't be surprised if companies h

This is not the same as radix sort but you're right that radix is a non-comparative sorting algorithm just like the one the parent commenter described.

Facebook's defense is like if someone accuses me of stealing something from a store and then I say the accuser has no security experience and was only in the store for 10 minutes.

I think if anything, you need a longer attention span to read articles like this. I can no longer quickly skim through an article to get the gist. Instead I have to read every single "paragraph" because there's no way to know

I agree. I don't even mind short paragraphs because I think they can be used for good effect but not if it's every single paragraph. It just strikes me as lazy writing. If each sentence is its own paragraph then you don't hav

I think that makes a lot of sense. It's not often that you get to speak about your deepest feelings to someone with no strings or consequences attached. A stranger might judge you but at least you're not going to see them the next

I agree with your first statement. However, this is one case where we don't have to make any guesses. City voting records are public. If you actually checked, then you'll see that Democratic and Republican controlled cities have s

Why are you correlating population size with party when you can literally look up the voting records of cities? What's more likely? 1. High population size implies Democratic party policies implies less police funding implies higher mu

I can relate and I think that's because with the projects that I'm most passionate about, I can't wait to set up the infrastructure and do it right. I want to do it now! But generally, if there's a project that I'm

In my (albeit biased) experience, the CS department has super high demand (everyone is trying to switch into it or apply to it) but to the university, it's just 1 out of 100 different departments so it feels underfunded compared to the

It's not obvious that transportation and quality assurance are cheaper overseas. At this point, China has grown its manufacturing sector so much that it's potentially better than the US in many ways (as far as QA goes). And for tr

Sorry. I meant to say that while you've probably make 100k net over 4 years and that you have 100k ARR, you haven't yet had a single year with 100k income based on the timeline you've given.

The US government probably seems less corrupt than the EU because of its laid back approach to a lot of policies. However, that's exactly the type of corruption that a lot of people are talking about. The country needs a lot of change

You're saying the tone implications are a quirk of our social groups. Because of how widespread it is now, I'd argue the lack of tone implications is a quirk of your social groups. You don't have to change how you communicate
