> This problem is pervasive among online password managers, you can never be sure if you’re interacting with a website or your password manager.

Isn't this true for any scenario, password manager or not? If a site has been compromised without you knowing and you enter your password from memory, paste, or a password manager, that password is at risk.

Is the author saying that he is able to access ALL passwords in the password manager via a single malicious site?

What’s is the difference between keepass synced by X and another service which is completely online? Simplified with keepass I have a) the database and b) an online accessible Location for storage. If I use Bitwarden, I still have a) and b), right? So for keepass to be better it would need to be better (as in safer) for one of those. I’m not sure if that’s the case (you can even selfhost both Bitwarden and nextcloud to have „trusted“ storage, although it shouldn’t matter). But: if you don’t need multiple devices, Keepass is the surest choice.

With that in mind, I’m rolling with Bitwarden (maximal security afaik and great usability - it’s even linked with my iPhone) for personal stuff and keepass for work as I only have one machine I need passwords on. I don’t like Setting up something to sync a file if I don’t need to, so I’d never use keepass for multiple devices
My mistake! Replacing RLS with Rust-Analyzer, it now takes 20-30s to incrementally check a trivial change to some core model code (compared to ~90s with RLS), though now rust-analyzer gives me an unrelated error which I assume may be the result of using a different rustup/cargo binary or something – so I'm back to RLS. Oh well. It looks like RLS and Rust-Analyzer are working on unifying their code, so I'm sure this will get better in the not-too-distant future.
>would -prefer- is to pay no taxes at all, while benefiting from all tax paid services they can.

I think you could probably preface the above with the word “citizens” and it would still be true. But both citizens and corporations have the right to lobby their representatives in their own interest. It’s the politicians job to try and create policy that balances the interests of all their constituents.
Thank you for the link, yes we are aware of this particular issue.
For our engine we used only lossless mode and using this mode the decompressed binary image is identical to the original so the described problem cannot occur. Nonetheless this limit severely the usefulness of JBIG2.
Thanks!

What about sites (such as Warby Parker) that make you hold up a credit card (which has a standard size) and use that to determine (via what I assume is a rule of three) the PD? [0]

I can see of course problems with the card not being “perpendicular” and other 3d distortions.

Hah, that is interesting. I think I make that mistake because I'm a software developer an enums are a thing so my brain mixes up innumerable with enumerable.
OK so... wikipedia has a pretty good summary.

You're right. I was wrong. There is no IP licensing payment from the US entity to Ireland.

IP licensing happens between 3rd party countries and Ireland. Irish tax law (to our great pride) gives IP licensing revenue tax exemption. It doesn't count as revenue for tax purposes. Once here, it can be transferred to a proper tax haven like Bermuda. Since its tax free, it doesn't matter that Ireland (like everyone) doesn't recognise the transaction to Bermuda as a legitimate expense. It didn't count as revenue anyway.

I guess that invoicing to Ireland is neither here nor there, just more convenient when the money needs to come here anyway.

Once the cash is in Bermuda, the game is done. The Bermuda company can hold it, buy shares, etc. This is why Apple (And MSFT) have moved all their IP to Ireland though.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Irish_arrangement

Here's the good bit:

Without such IP, if Microsoft charged a German end-customer, say $100, for Microsoft Office, a profit of circa $95 (as the cost to Microsoft for copies of Microsoft Office is small) would be realised in Germany, and German tax payable. With such IP, Microsoft can additionally charge Microsoft Germany $95 in IP royalty payments on each copy of Microsoft Office, ensuring that its German profits are zero. The $95 is paid to the location in which the IP is legally housed. Microsoft would prefer to house this IP in a tax haven; however, higher-tax locations like Germany do not sign full tax treaties with tax havens, and would not accept the IP charged from a tax haven as deductible against German taxation. The Double Irish fixes this problem.[8][9]

The Double Irish enables the IP to be charged-out from Ireland, which has a large global network of full bilateral tax treaties.[g] The Double Irish enables the hypothetical $95, which was sent from Germany to Ireland, to be sent-on to a tax haven like Bermuda, without incurring any Irish taxation.
Unfortunately, the number of dollar bills in your wallet cannot be thought of as arbitrary.
If they are not all bad or good are they all the same ( that is to say composed of equal number and value of good and bad parts) that seems unlikely to be the case and would need some theory other than just answering yes so I suppose we will say no.

If people / cultures / civilizations vary in the level of goodness and badness in them then it follows that there should be a distribution of societies that are significantly more good than bad, societies that are average, and societies that are significantly more bad than good.

If a society is significantly more bad than good it can be true that you could still find something good in them but it becomes questionable if it is worth an individual to study the society to extract this good part from all the bad.

Thus I would conclude that it might not be really worthwhile to learn anything from the Aztecs.
I worked on the design of adding passwordless 2fa to the Saas Pass password manager. In addition the saas pass password manager identifies websites that you can add 2FA to as well.
Thanks! And good catch, I'll fix that right away.
I see this as largely a tooling problem.

Fireworks from the early 2000s did a great job helping with optimizing images. These days no one even thinks about it. Tools like Sketch will export SVGs but embed base64 encoded data URLs of 600dpi PNGs in them. Unobservant devs don't realize this is happening which lead to SVGs that are tens of megabytes. Sketch should know better than to do something so ridiculous without any sort of indication or warning. It's shocking how few professional design tools have working or optimal image optimization. I can drop PNGs from any app into free tools that shrink them down losslessly by 50%.

Flash did binary vector art in late 90s and we still haven't caught up to that in 2021. SVGs are still much larger than their SWF counterpart, and only in very few circumstances is any of SVGs functionality superiority relevant.

There's a big void around non-technical designers and untrained, unskilled FE devs that don't know about these problems or solutions. Is the solution yet-another binary vector format that is dead-on-arrival from google? No. But I like that there's some attention to this problem.
Hardly an "innovation" then.
First of all, a very interesting topic! Author is obviously someone with a lot of knowledge. Nevertheless he is employed at Google(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tavis_Ormandy) and recommends Chrome? ..combined with lack of references and research material this all seems a little bit sus to me.

I can't speak about this specific project but pose tracking in the browser can actually be really useful to get it on mobile without the need for dedicated apps.

We are currently experimenting with using phones (or tablets or basically anything with a browser and a camera) as a tracking source for full body tracking on the Oculus Quest ([1]) and being able to just use a Tensorflow model in the browser has cut down the time of development on the mobile device side to almost nothing.

There are of course a whole lot of other issues one buys into with that approach (browser security policies, the whole thing not working in certain countries due to problems with loading the model) but that's manageable

Such stories always strike me as quite incredible and conducive to mental instability. Why would anyone get so invested in a company aside from major shareholders ? These places don't need a culture, they're not nations, you don't share a common destiny or anything of the likes.
Just to underscore what was previously stated, I think this philosophy would drastically change the paradigm. I’m guessing it would severely restrict the money flowing into stocks which would have repercussions in other areas like pensions etc. Point being, I don’t think it can just be layered onto the existing system without serious blowback.

Well, 1MB is way too small, but 1GB is way too large. Conserving resources is important.
Rust has its strength and weaknesses. Using Rust for network-latency bounded applications (e.g. web applications) simply means you're not using the right tool for the job.
My grandfather worked with Lambros and shared an amusing booklet from him called "A short list of even primes," which is a single digit: 2 (with a long and humorous introduction). It is not classified (obviously) and I will try to get around to sharing it on here at some point in the future.

Tradition Is Smarter Than You Are (2018)
Sure, and I hear the concern regarding exploitation of (potentially overworked, underpaid) developers and maintainers.

But if a thousand people receive a free (perhaps sugar-addled) lunch from one of a few providers -- while collectively having the resources to feed each other free lunches (more sustainably, long-term) -- it doesn't seem fair to attack and blame those people for asking difficult questions about their food source. Even if they might seem entitled today, they're asking questions that will probably appear more than fair in retrospect.

(I realize these analogies don't fit perfectly, and I'm aware I'm reframing the issue, perhaps awkwardly)

With software, fortunately, it may be business critical, but it's rarely personal-health critical the way that nutrition is (unless, perhaps, we have already incorporated infrastructure too deeply into ourselves as humans).
The effect is also pretty dramatic and I think this is a big part of illustration work. Comic books in particular use three point perspective to add drama.

I'd agree there, though with the caveat that there are very similar phrasings that can have differences. I don't often hear people advocating for "open borders", but rather for "more open borders" or to "open up the borders". The former means to have no restrictions on movements between countries, while the latter two mean to have fewer restrictions, but still allow for a non-zero number of restrictions.

yes - I have helped a half dozen people get ID the past couple years.

Unfortunately you need one to cash checks and do all sorts of important things - and it's a good way to prevent fraud / theft / underage activities, etc.

The good thing is that I've been seeing digital kisoks popping up at more locations that can handle this sort og thing, and take some of wait times away from the main dmv places.

Not long ago my city also opened up all county clerk desks and some other places to help people get the 'real ID' stuff together and submitted.

So there is progress in making it easier / better / cheaper.

That being said - if you are from one state to another and license was expired and you have to get special papers to show a divorce and name change - le suck!

If you have roommates and don't have utility bills in your name for Real Id - what a stupid setup the feds came up with no-fly plane with real proof you are Real..

I expect more people to come up with more ways to make these things better.

I expect to see more places like GA offer ID for free for voting, only $5 for indigent people.

It can be complex in weird situations, but I believe for most people it's just not as much fun as playing a playstation. I have seen it out of reach for a 70 year old divorcee' - but we all finally found a way to get the docs needed from another state and it all came together finally - most people would not have the same kind of problem however, I'd guess 99.5%
Has anyone heard about this program before? Advice needed
I found this program called 1ST50K (https://www.codefiworks.com/1st50k/) and I was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of it? It sounds like their award is non-dilutive if you move to their region, so it seems interesting to me. Does anyone have any experience with these folks? What is their network like? What kind of support do they provide? What do they gain from investing in startups?

I would highly appreciate any advice regarding this. Thanks!
It looks like the OP has come up with their own variation on some sort of curvilinear perspective (which is a known concept in visual design, and may even be useful to model, e.g. distortion introduced by a lens) but this is not how actual 3D projection works.
Passwords are a lost cause. This doesn't mean that you need to give up on using good practices, just don't go overboard trying to plug all the theoretical holes. It's not all or nothing, sometimes it's OK to be good enough. For everything important you oughta use 2FA anyway.

I recently moved my passwords from an expired 1Password account to Bitwarden (right at the time they announced linux support actually, which was always the biggest thing I missed). Bitwarden has a FF extension and allows me to use it across mac/windows/linux.
> Well here I am to deny it. I personally find Go super hard to write anything that is not a few lines of glue code (and in that case I just reach for Node).

> I tried really hard to like Go. I just couldn't.

I would expect something opposite for most of programmers. Especially, because Rust support in VSCode/JetBrains IDEs was not very good for many years. However, during talks with various people, I have noticed the Go was natural choice for many former Python or Ruby devs, while Node/Java guys had problem with adapting to it.

Personally, when I take a look at the Rust code it feels like some ECMA Script in a compiled world.
Using keepass would decouple password management from your browser. Bitwarden, for example, usually runs as a browser addon.
- The Charisma Myth. It focuses more on meta skills like projecting presence, but is useful to start seeing non-verbal communication as effective as well
- The Presentation Skills of Steve Jobs. The books is really about presentation skills and then the author layered Steve Jobs on top, but it's a very useful book.
- A quick overview of Amazon's approach to written communication. One thing I will say about Bezos, he understands the overhead of communication in a corporation and focused on streamlining it, there are a bunch of articles but this one is useful: https://networkcapital.substack.com/p/the-amazon-way-of-writing
- I've spent a lot of time reading the sale literature out there and its rough to recommend a book given the way the question is formed but understanding a sales mindset is extremely useful to becoming a better communicator. Zig Zigler "Secrets to closing the sale", Jeffery Gitomer's work, and SPIN selling all come to mind as valuable reads.

> Homeless people don't generally make it to Senator. Most of these people have wealth from the beginning, which is unfortunately required to invest so much time and money to attain the office.

That was a bit of cheeky hyperbole that got in the way of my actual point. People in power have been recorded using insider information in a general sense for profit since at least the early Romans so at this point it's pretty much baked into society and any extant political/upper class structures. Without resetting the world to zero, we have no idea whether the selective pressures on that class structure "converge" with the rest of the population. For all we know, the advantages of intergenerational wealth and power instill beliefs and habits that over generations makes them worse investors on average, propped up by access to easy capital and inside info. Intuitively it would make them better investors on average, but even then random variations mean that the probability of a long streak of incompetent and immoral politicians isn't astronomical. Maybe people from the political class are predisposed to successful investing thanks to better education, or that might not be a factor at all and their success could be predicated on access to existing family connections and wealth to bootstrap into a position with access to insider information. None of that precludes a natural turnover where, whether by luck or meritocracy, outsiders become wealthy enough to enter the political class before returning to the mean (or worse), now propped up by new access to insider information. Question is whats the balance between the groups?

At the end of the day, this is a bunch of vague generalizations (what is the "political class?") and there are a lot of selective pressure of unknown strength. The sample size is so small it's probably random anyway but I enjoy the speculation :) Thank you for reading my off topic rant

> I just don't buy the narrative that someone worth tens of millions is trading a few thousand here and there to make some small return relative to their wealth. It just doesn't make sense.

Regardless of the accuracy of my speculation, I don't buy that having X amount of money fundamentally changes human nature, especially when the characteristic in question (greed) provides a significant competitive advantage for suppressing one's conscience and attaining that X. I don't believe it changes people's knack for obsessing over matters that are trivial in the grand scheme of things, nor reduce envy or competitiveness. I'm sure there are many exceptions to these generalizations, but I don't believe many of them want to (or can) be politicians. Humans are humans so hope for the best and expect the worst but don't project motives or perspectives.

I used to like Chrome password manager, but since moving back to Firefox, I like their password manager more.

I havent been comfortable with other 3rd party password managers and their integration feels forced
For one, it's completly free. I use a free nextcloud 1gig instance, you might use dropbox, onedrive, gdrive whatever. I don't think a trivial application like a password safe should require a personal server or a suscription, as the author rightly noted, it's not much more than a very, very small key value store
I have tried the underlying library, MediaPipe/TensorFlowJS, and it is only okay. Once you try to use it for visual augmentation, I found it doesn't track that well and it has problems with scale.

So, while it may look good with the skeletons, notice they do not have useful demos, mostly just proof of concept demos that do almost nothing.
Also, don’t forget to do the investor calls listed as a perk on wefunder ;)

I don’t deny that there is some wasted effort, what I argue against is that the amount of truly wasted effort is significant and that the measure for whether or not a job is bullshit should be that the person doing the job thinks it shouldn’t exist.

We are capitalist in as much as you and I are allowed to build a machine and pay people to run it. I agree there are no free markets, all markets are created by governments just as all currency is.
I was with you until you made it political. I'm a member of a minority group and I'm fed up with wokeness.

People like John McWhorter have described wokeness as a religion. That's a characterization that I agree with, and a religion isn't countered by being a Democrat, Republican, Independent or apolitical.

I found the walk-away movement appealing when it first started. I agreed with the criticisms of the left. But the movement turned into switching uniforms ... walk across the field from the Dem side to the GOP side. It was more political than helpful.

One of McWhorter's suggestions is that more of us need to tell the people in the religion, "no."
