The option for a delay of is great. The option of adding a custom security question/password etc. is even better. The option of completely turning off recovery is also great. The ability to have your solution on multiple devices without a need for a mobile phone number based recovery is great as well.

I hate it that Twitter forces you to enter a mobile phone number even when you set up an authenticator code generator as 2FA.

Oftentimes the weakest link in most of these services is the account recovery part.

When we set up the self service account recovery in saas pass password manager and authenticator we added all of these customizable options to mitigate against potential SIM Swap attacks.

Where I live ordinary bank transactions are free for ordinary consumers. I never pay a transaction fee or any annual fees. My bank used to charge an annual fee for a credit card but they have stopped charging now.

In fact in my whole life (I'm 65 so about 50 years of having bank accounts) I have never paid transaction fees for ordinary transactions (in the UK and Norway).

A "USB sharing switch" to switch the USB hub with all peripherals between work laptop and personal PC. KVM switches are too expensive and not really available, esp. with USB 3 support.

I forgot to include this in my original post. I use the Microsoft authenticator application to authenticate my account. My mistake was also including my mobile number as an alternative way to authenticate my account.

Hydrogen is an energy STORAGE medium, NOT an energy SOURCE.

The ONLY economically viable source of H2 today is cracking Natural Gas (and to your point, nearly always producing CO2 in the process).

From both a lifecycle efficiency and pollution perspective (if you accept the ridiculous idea that CO2 is a pollutant), we're way better off just burning the NG, which is already the cleanest carbon-based fuel there is.

Exactly

> What is better? (1) Requiring a password to login or (2) Requiring a password and a code sent via SMS?

They're equivalent in my mind - SMS is such a weak 2FA mechanism, and it's so easy to get wrong and have it decrease your overall security, any benefit is lost. Rather than pushing SMS because it's what we have we should make greater efforts to leverage technology that we know is considerably better in every regard except availability today - IMO that is the problem to solve.

It lets us think like that despite it not being true.

You need state to do anything useful. A lot of functional programming revolves around the idea of isolating impure aspects of a language from the pure parts.

That's why we have Futures, IOs, Options, Eithers etc.

No one is saying they are pure, the types are an indicator that something impure is happening. They are abstractions that allow us to pretend they're pure and work with them regardless of the context of the type.

I can map over a Future, IO, or Option regardless of whether the Future resolved, the IO was successful, or the Option contains a value.

That's a functional mindset where the impurity is isolated to the data type and methods are exposed on the type that lets us ignore certain possibilities.

I don't care about the context when I map over one of these types, whether its a Future, Option, Array, IO etc. I can write my pure function and pass it off to map. Who cares if the Future really contains an error, the Option is None, or the Array is empty. Map handles all those cases for me and lets me interact with these impure aspects in a pure way.

The function I define and pass to map is pure and lets me interact with impure parts of the code in a pure way.

useState and useEffect should be thought of in the same way. Clearly it denotes something impure is happening, but the stateful value can be treated like a state machine that can be declaratively tested against a finite list of possible states.

In the case of a Promise, it's successful, pending, or error. For an Option its Some<T> or None. Etc etc.

If my hook returns 3 values, result, isPending, error (and if you really want, each value can be an option), I can easily handle each scenario deterministically.

That allows for pattern match like solutions (in JS it can be through cases clauses since there's no FP pattern matching).

This allows for writing components in a pure like approach even when its obviously impure.

Greece here, transactions cost 3 EUR. I think they're possibly free if you use the same bank, but the apps are cumbersome to use and the potential for fees is a deterrent, so nobody uses them for transactions of less than hundreds of EUR.
A lot of banks in many countries charges heavily for not maintaining the minimum balance. I think a lot of people can't afford that. Though the minimum balances are usually much lower than a normal BTC transaction.
“should” bring the operative word here
People have always used Western Union, for which the charges are ten dollars or so, that's bearable. And, yes, they do have SMS banking in Salvador.
The idea that "normal people" will be able to use bitcoin at all without getting their private keys stolen is laughable.

Think of how often online bank accounts get hacked in the US, except the difference now is that your money is gone, permanently.
Where I live (Canada), transactions are usually "free" up to a certain amount per month, but they often hit you with monthly fees. That is unless you can maintain a minimum balance in your bank account, in which case the fees become the interest they earn off that chunk of cash, I suppose.

This is not really a big issue for London, though. The vast majority of London Underground platforms only have one type of train serving them. The few exceptions (eg: parts of the Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines) are mostly above ground and not the busiest parts of the network, so you could just skip the PEDs there and use manual door closing.

If there are still strikes then it is the same situation. Your plan solves nothing, for reasons both the article and I have outlined already. If we put you in charge tomorrow to execute your plan of moving from £70k drivers to £30k hi-vis vest-wearers, you would cause weeks of strikes, massive disruption and solve nothing.
What is now called "agile" (which has been bastardized from the late 90's "XP") is specifically designed to stop this from happening: every day, you have to "stand up" and recite what you did yesterday and what you're going to do today. If "scrum" is being followed properly, there's somebody listening who's actually recording what you said you were going to do yesterday and compare it to what you say you did yesterday and call out any discrepancies. So no, you don't need permission to do something as long as it only takes an hour or so and you can hide it somewhere in your daily standup tasks. Anything that takes longer than this needs to be reviewed and approved - and this is entirely the point of the methodology and the only reason it's ever adopted.
Apple Adopts Actors
You're telling us people that don't have bank accounts are gonna be using bitcoin in some abstruse way?

Or are you saying some other entity (a bank) will help them with it?

And if the latter, why would bitcoin be of help at all? A normal bank account would be simpler and less worrisome.
This is good news in that we will see a real country with decent population use it and fail badly proving that Bitcoin is not viable as a valid currency. Once that is done its value should plummet dramatically. Until now it is not used for any payments and mainly for speculation/gambling to make easy money. Most of the people are just supporting it to hype up the value so they can make most profit.

No. According to rumours: the high-end 64-128 GPUs will be exclusively for the Mac Pro and the MacBook Pro will have 16-32 cores GPUs instead. It think it's fair to assume that we won't see much changes with the cooling for their laptops.

That's not what legal tender means in all parts of the world. For instance, in England and Wales, legal tender has an extremely narrow definition - it means that a law court has to accept it for the payment of a debt. Legal tender doesn't apply to people who aren't law courts, and legal tender only applies to past debt - it doesn't apply to future payments such as a purchase at a shop.

It looks (from the news articles) that it has a broader definition in El Salvador, but unless one is an expert in that country's law, it would be best not to make claims about it. If someone is an expert, I'd love to hear what the actual facts are.

Well, what is "obvious" is under dispute too.

It is not "obvious" to me that for instance Google is particularly partisan. Most big companies donate to both USA parties in large quantities, because they know they need to buy the politicians whoever is in power. I haven't looked it up, but I assume Google is similar in it's lobbying.

The largest companies are almost always mostly looking out for their own profits, and use their not inconsiderable power mostly to that end. And that's not unprecedented. I don't know if it should be less worrisome that we accept that uncritically!

(Btw, to say something is unprecedented and call it "robber baron style" is a bit confusing, since the term "robber baron" as applied to industrialists/capitalists is over 100 years old! Whatever the "robber baron style" is, it originated in the 19th century! so not unprecedented)

Yes but my question is more about what tradeoffs should I be looking for to decide which to use. There does not seem to be a simple way to bridge the worlds, so deciding early is probably necessary.

From what I'm gathering I should stick to Rx (Combine) when I have multiple related tasks or want to fire off changes in response to events, whereas async/await is useful for one-off asynchronous tasks like most web requests? I'm really not sure.

That's my point though. Even though they may understand the immediate flaw in their code that caused the issue, there's not much use (for them or their customers) in just talking in detail about that specific flaw.

I'd go so far as to argue that the specifics of the flaw are immaterial right now. At this stage, the important thing is that they have identified a specific code change that was the proximate cause of the issue, and have a mitigation in place. This is contrasted with more mysterious and hard-to-track-down failures. ("We are working to understand why our systems are down and will post another update in 30 minutes")

What will take time, and the thing which will be interesting, is failure tree analysis. (You might hear the phrase "failure chain" or "root cause" but IMO it's quite rare for things to be so linear). That can help identify opportunities to improve processes at many different levels of the product lifecycle.

Humans are fallible, and there's no way we can write bug-free software, so the solution has to be more robust than "hope that every member of our organization never makes a mistake again"

That is an oft-echoed sentiment. I've experienced it a little bit myself, but the main reason I've fallen out of it (after a few fiercely addicted bouts) was it felt like I was exacerbating some RSI, especially with my mousing hand.

But yeah once you start thinking about on-demand rail delivery using signals as RPC...it's pretty work-like. :D The async nature of the inventory system means long-range signal transmission handling ends up feeling exactly like bit-banging on a microcontroller, which is sufficiently out of my current work scope that it's fun and interesting.

Yes, as I've said, availability is the problem to solve. We should be shipping U2F tokens wherever we can. I'd like to see schools that require students to use GSuite and other U2F supporting sites giving students tokens for free. I'd like to see banks giving their customers tokens. I'd like to see companies giving them to employees.

IMO the problem is not "let's get some kind of 2FA" it's "let's get U2F in the hands of as many people as we can".
The Russian phrase has a different literal meaning though. ‘I’m going to freeze my eats to spite my mum’ which refers to mothers insisting their kids wear warm hats in winter.
It depends a lot on the country you are in. In the Netherlands pedestrians and cyclists normally get priority, because the car is making a right turn while the other groups are continuing in a straight fashion. What probably also helps is that when a car is involved in an accident with a pedestrian/cyclist the default assumption is that the car driver is guilty.
As it turns out, being one of the largest economies in the world by itself means that a lot of STUFF happens
Rx is very powerful and can be difficult to understand at first, especially if you haven't done a lot of programming in functional languages before.

I'm not trying to argue about that though - I just want to know under what set of circumstances I should prefer async/await over Rx and vice versa.
