And no, I don't consider a small custom list to be "support". It's a high-value list and a solid sign that they're not wholly abandoned, and I do expect it to come eventually, but it's very much not the same as general availability. General availability did exist before.

Edit: I broadly agree with their breaking of NPAPI stuff, WebExtensions (as a concept, not necessarily the specifics we have now) has a LOT of very real benefits, and does not inherently prevent equal or better capabilities. But it too is still a loss in control, as it stands today.

Sorry, parent comment was unkind of me. I was just adding anger on top of anger. Time for editing the comment has expired, though.

I am sensitive around ideas of censoring kids because I tend to be passionately against censorship in most cases and I turned out fine despite not having had relatives try to control my access to information for the most part.

> I _cannot_ mute a coworker talking loudly next to my desk.

Maybe my team was more respectful. Any prolonged conversation can and was taken to a conference room or common area.

I also wear noise canceling headphones most of the day, and find the general muted drone of office noises nice. People listen to recorded audio of cafes and stuff, it's basically the same for me.

But to be clear: I'm not saying everyone should have the same preferences as me. I'm just letting my voice and concerns be heard, since I've heard plenty of people go on about how they think WFH/remote work is better.

Why - its not like your getting paid for it.
Defense is not the private sector. It is a sanctified institution politically where we must always fund it, similar to social security and Medicare. It’s a blank check we write every year, no questions asked.

Certain private sector industries wish to join this club. Green energy has the makings of it. Education is obviously one of them. You get the picture.

A law would be horribly broken if it said something like "all stores must have a web API". Alternatives of "web stores must have a web API" or "all businesses with a digital UI must have a published API offering the same features" wouldn't succumb to that.

That's why I take issue with the word "architecture". If a business has chosen to offer a web storefront, a web API can be supplied right alongside that. There's no need for any "architecture" mandate - the business has chosen the architecture, and the law would mandate accessibility.

Also a P2P/distributed store would itself be defined by an open API, making the issue moot.

Yubikey still acts as a second factor, so for the average person's threat model this should be fine provided you use strong, unique passwords for your accounts (i.e. a password manager). 1Password supports U2F as a second factor to access your account, but you still need to know your secret key and master password; you cannot decrypt your vault with only a hardware token.

Maybe it's an American thing I don't get or just the way I was raised but even though I do believe in SpaceX as a company they are still just that to me i.e. the fact that some people treat them like a sports team is a little jarring to me.

Wanting to buy stock is completely understandable, but why do SpaceX fans on Reddit collect lists of evidence that musk is really in charge of engineering for example? I wouldn't stop them from doing it, but at the end of the day this is Mr "pedo guy" they're talking about so the personality cult is odd.
Why do you think they would need to do those launches in quick succession? If the lunar lander starship is parked in orbit without a crew it can be refuelled over any convenient period of time. Once it's fuelled just send up the crew in a dragon capsule and off you go. The dragon would probably make a good lifeboat if you brought it along for the ride somehow.

When you enable 2FA with security keys you have 2 options, let's call them the easy and the strong.

The easy. Add both a security key and OTP (e.g. Google Authenticator). You have 1 rule to strictly adhere: if you click on a link, you MUST use the security key, because that's the one that protects you against phishing. When you don't have your security key, you can just use OTP provided that you typed the url and not clicked on it from email/text.

The strong. You enable 2+ security keys. You keep one in a safe at home. You always use a security key to sign in. On your Google account you can also enable Advanced Protection, that's essentially this plus some extra restrictions to API access.

That’s a best case scenario. The cascading effect of any asset bubble popping extends outward like the ripples of a stone in a pond.

Besides the unrelated draw downs to cover losses, it also has a psychological effect that pulls new money from entering non-risk free asset classes.
Okay, I need a chess board and a pieces set of this and Vantablack.
Of course it would hurt "conservatism on online platforms", repealing section 230 would effectively cause social media companies to shut their business down over night to avoid liability. Hackernews would certainly shut down. Nobody with any familiarity with the law actually supports repealing it, but for some reason it became a cause celebre of the far right. Maybe, "fuck the mods!!!" just doesn't have the same ring it used to?
The small carriers piggybacked on big networks are just a facade for the big networks. If the are not owned by those networks, they hope to be acquired.

They just provide different branding at a bit of a discount, like Toyota vs Lexus kind of thing.

Things are better than they used to be. E.g. one half decent alternative in Canada is Public Mobile. E.g. my cell phone plan has unlimited Canada-wide calling and texting. If I pre-pay $25 for a month on auto top-up, I get 1.5 G of data, which is fine for my use. I don't go out to sit somewhere out of Wi-Fi range to stream videos. Just from a battery use POV, that would be a nonstarter, even with unlimited data.

Though that pricing may seem laughable to people in some parts of the world, the fact is that it costs $2 less than what I paid for a land-line in 1987 to operate a BBS.

In absolute dollars, not adjusted for inflation!!!

On that land-line, calling just across town (e.g. Surrey to North Vancouver or vice versa) incurred long-distance charges.

Wow, was that ever a rip-off. Let's do the inflation using inflationtool.com.

Evidently, CAD $27 in 1987 is like $56 in 2021. $56 a month, with unlimited calling only to immediately neighboring municipalities. (Data? What's that: 1200 baud modem or something).

The wire format is standardized: ISO 7816. Even U2F uses ISO 7816.

This issue with existing smart card technology is not lack of standardization, it's too much standardization--too much flexibility and stacks that are too deep.

Vendors ship their own PKCS#11 drivers as a convenience. But PKCS#11 isn't the only high-level API. The other is PC/SC, which is actually simpler than PKCS#11, though it often requires more local support from the OS. But not necessarily. You can write PC/SC shims that talk directly to hardware, or even to Vault servers if you want, w/o OS support. I have my own rapid driver framework that supports all of these. For example, I have a PKCS#11 and PC/SC client driver which can use the Apple T1 chip to authenticate to a Vault server for remote signing using Transit keys--the only engine that supports ad hoc remote key operations. This permits sharing GnuPG (via PC/SC) and OpenSSH (via PKCS#11) keys between users, without actually disclosing the keys, though Vault actually makes it difficult to do this securely as you need to write ACLs to prevent transit keys from being exportable.

BTW, you don't need special drivers to use Yubikeys, either. They just provide them as a convenience because the FOSS ecosystem is confusing and... non-optimal.

I'm hoping to release a macOS product soon and as part that may release some of my framework as FOSS.

I don't think this has anything to do with the treatment of IT folks. It has more to do with the time frame validity of certificates. If your certificate expires every month you will have a system or process in place to deal with that (preferably an automated one). However, if your certificate expires every two years or so, someone will set a calendar reminder, leaves the company at some point, and there is your problem.
Probably also explains why so many games with online components (or online-only gameplay) completely shit themselves the first weekend after launch. The servers can't handle the load, the game is bugged to fuck, and the poor souls stuck in crunch time are stuck in firefighting mode for a while longer. At best they make it look like false exclusivity.

And it continues because as much as people complain, they are holding these game publishers and developers to the lowest possible standard.

I used to drive a fellow RPG-er crazy with this. Whenever I would roll a few times low numbers, I would say "Alright, next time will be high, that is obvious, it's pure statistics!". At first he would object, but still even after he knew that I knew, that statement would still drive him mad.

I remember one time when I rolled really low numbers on a D20, and then there was this really important roll, where I had to get a 20. I confidently said "No problem, I rolled a few really low numbers in a row, so this is definitely going to be a 20, it's pure statistics". Also throwing some calculation in there: "I rolled a 2 and a 1, so in 3 rolls I should get a total of 30 on average, so that means I actually still need 27 to reach the average. That results in more than 100% chance of rolling a 20 right now". And then I actually rolled a 20, was able to keep my cool and a straight face "see, it's just theory". Pure gold! LOL :D
Lol I love seeing my unread count go higher. Hopefully I'm not breaking servers from it, though.

Because, at least in tech, many who insist that one or the other are absolutely superior are motivated by unstated resentments against higher cost of living near their employers' offices, or sometimes by cultural or political aversion to the majority culture in those areas.

There's nothing wrong with either of those motivations, but often the WFH versus office debate is a smoke screen for one of them.

All very fair points. But I think the ecosystem of a language is part of this discussion. And the ecosystem of year 2000 C++ is hard to run on current systems. While the ecosystem of year 2000 java still works.(IMHO better than 2005 java)

I would definitely not say that java is perfect, but the java ecosystem does have some very practical advantages that more than compensate for some of its very real disadvantages.

I'd bet this has more to do with the fact that the Java version started out as a one-man project (that wasn't even expected to take off), whereas Bedrock started as a multimillion-dollar project by Microsoft who a) knew the project scope ahead of time, and b) could hire a (presumably) world-class team to design and implement it

I'm still not convinced that's a bad thing. Does this not ensure profitable sites will be around because they provide enough value to their users to charge a fee, everything else will be stuff like passion projects.

I really just feel that 1. Advertising is manipulative and evil in its' modern form, and 2. Targeting further multiplies its' ability to do evil.

I'm not convinced that what we receive in exchange for empowering 1 and 2 is in any way worth it.
