This works around a real problem I'm surprised nobody has solved - the ability to register a bunch of keys at the same time.

The webauthn spec has public/private keys incorporated: https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-sample-registration

There should be no risk to storing all your public keys in e.g. 1password. When signing up for e.g. facebook.com, you should be able to hit a button and have all your keys registered at the same time. You can send $site all your public keys, and sign auth reqs as you log in. Of course, the UX would be handled by webauthn, so you'd really just be tapping your yubikey or scanning your fingerprint on login.

Ideally, password managers would offer key servers that websites could hit in real-time to pull your public keys. That's probably a stretch - maybe websites could sync your 2fa pub keys in the background.

With such a model:

1. Having multiple yubikeys

2. Having multiple team members with access (same as 1, effectively)

3. Revocation of individual 2fa devices

4. Adding 2fa devices after account creation

Would be pretty trivial.

I assume there's something basic in the webauthn protocol that I'm overlooking that prevents such a model. What is it, and why can't we have these properties?

I for one don't want all my accounts to hinge on access to a single physical device, and I certainly don't want to register 10 yubikeys with every service (some I may not even have physical access to on a day-by-day basis).
As someone with both Verizon and T-Mobile on the same phone using dual-SIM, I can confirm that T-Mobile's coverage is worse than Verizon.

> The question I felt was unanswered by the article is have overseas apps actually delivered significantly better results than that?

My country rolled out an app quite early last year. It worked well, didn't drain battery life, didn't need you to "sign up" or provide any personal details. The problem was pretty much nobody installed it, so it was basically useless.

They also tried strict contact tracing, requiring people to register whenever they go into a bar or restaurant, but that also didn't work (most outbreaks were from meeting family or in the workplace).

Now my country has given up on contact tracing and moved to accepting the virus will be here forever, and is trying to encourage more people to be vaccinated.

I believe the shim is basically set up like a Chromecast receiver, so you can use anything that will cast to it. It should be possible to do that from the browser as well (hit the Cast icon in the upper right and the shim receiver should pop up).

When I use Shodan as a data source for any info sec consulting, I try to get the point across that Shodan’s map of your network is not accurate (nmap is much better for that), but anything that an adversary sees on Shodan is likely to be an initial target (even if it is down at the time of the attacker looking).

Shodan is a fantastic tool, but I never trust it as a single source of truth for a network perimeter.
> You’re at the mercy of randoms working retail.

So true, even for Apple or (insert beloved company here). Between the turnover, low salaries, and the terrible scheduling patterns, you're blessed if you get someone who doesn't assault customers.

Consequently, most retail seems to focus on training employees to "not be bad" vs "being more good."
Excerpt worth pulling out for HN readers:

Crawling incidentally I think is the biggest issue with making a new search engine these days. Websites flat out refuse to support any crawler than Google, and cloudflare and other protection services and CDN’s flat out deny access to incumbents. It is not a level playing field. I would actually like to see some sort of communal web crawl supported by all web crawlers that allows open access to everyone. The benefits to websites would be immense as well, as they could be hit by a single crawler, rather than multiple, and bugs could be ironed out.
Google "pin art" for the analog version of this.
How are nail guns having zero effect on productivity?
This seems like a perfectly Karen request.

Information you expose to the public internet, behind an isp or not, is not private or secure.

This is like complaining that people keep taking walks by your house whenever your wife sunbathes nude on your front porch. The people doing the looking aren't the problem. Where your wife is exposing anything sensitive is the problem.

The solution is to move your wife to the privacy of the back yard, buy her a sunbooth,or accept that she's on display to the public.

Much the same, make sure your firewall facing your public network connection only exposes what you want it to. Part of the implicit structure of the internet is that by connecting, you're agreeing to be connected to, to be visible to everyone else that's connected.

Leave Shodan be, their presence is important and relevant to the ongoing discussions of educating the public and maintaining accountability for security decisions by giant corporations.

My last visit to T-Mobile wasn't the most pleasant. My Pixel 4 XL (ordered from Google) was totally broken and so I went in to buy one at T-Mobile so I wouldn't have to wait for shipping. They charged me an extra $50 for me to pay upfront instead of financing it. Been a customer for 15 years and this is the thanks I get for choosing them as my retailer.
You know it's bad when T-Mobile (fucking Telekom) is better than the competition.
Actually, I think it would be rather straightforward. I'm a bit embarrassed for HN that they're still using tables and spacer gifs and see it as an intentional pushback on "caving" to modern web techniques. Despite CSS being 20 years old at this point.

Thanks for the spam, Lauren.
I'm curious about why you might switch? Pay as you go is $10 + usage, unlimited T&T & 5GB data is $25. That's plenty data for me since I'm always around wifi.
Now, to be fair, I'm talking about carefully writing code with the knowledge of the previous 20 years, which is a little bit like "cheating", whatever that concept means here.

I use ASCII/textfiles, HTTP, CGI, SSI, access.log, Perl, Bash, and small subsets of PHP, HTML, JS, CSS, and almost no third-party libraries. Certainly no JQuery or anything similar.

I'm not hardcore enough for C or C++, but I know that a program written 20 years ago in these languages would most likely compile today.
If I'm reading your comments correctly, you're claiming that if there had been capital available, there would have been some entrepreneur who would have electrified rural areas on their own. However, there was no capital due to the Great Depression.

The issue with that argument is that rural electrification was a problem before the Great Depression. It was an issue back in the 20's, the period in which you claim that credit was quite cheap. So why didn't entrepreneurs go out and electrify rural areas? Probably because of the prevailing notion that farmers wouldn't pay for electricity.
> Why can't a folder contain both movies and tv series?

While your other points I'd mostly agree with, this one you're swimming against the stream here.

It's a pretty standard convention to separate episodic and feature content. There's usually different data sources for each, as well as episodic content being different in structure.

It's probably possible to get all of them to live in the one directory, but if you want a better experience from just about any of the media centre software - you're going to have to get used to separating them.

Ideally something like:

/data/movies/<movie name>/

/data/tv/<series name>/season <season number>/

This is where there's disagreement. Is it people fed up with poor working conditions, life circumstances that prevent employment, or purposeful unwillingness to work?

I believe the first 2 categories are significant and worth fixing to identify if/how many fall into the 3rd category. Not many do in a well functioning society, IMO.

>Consequently, most retail seems to focus on training employees to "not be bad" vs "being more good."

More like they just don't give adequate training time at all. I've never had a retail job that gave as much time with the training material as the material itself said you'd spend with it.
I share your enthusiasm for C++ interoperability. I'm a computer graphics researcher and I have written my share of C++. I'm using Swift on my current project and there are a wealth of C++ geometry and numerical libraries that I would love to integrate without having to jump through Objective-C or an automatic binding generator. Swift is a very pleasant language to work in compared to C++ (YMMV), so being free to pull in C++ libraries natively might make it attractive to a lot of folks.
I have had a similar career experience. In time, I’ve decided to accept that I’m much more like those people than I wanted to accept when I felt I was a young and hungry “disruptor”

I am much more a product of the systems than I wanted to accept. That’s the most mature perspective I have had to date - and has led to more empathy than I thought I was capable of.
Doing this:

* Plan ahead

* Establish a clear list of goals and objectives with your manager. Make sure your moving toward completion of the goals and they can see that. This keeps them off your back.

* Make it clear that you want to manage your own time and ask if that’s going to be an issue. If it is, find out what can be done to alleviate it.

Sorry if that sounded obvious but it’s taken me years to figure this out.
> The C language also has a stable ABI, which is basically the ffi for most languages,

C is honestly terrible to target/use as FFI, doing so precludes doing things correctly, or more advanced things like... say arrays that "know their own length" or numeric-types that are range-constrained.
> But the government spying illegally and planning to kill him doesn't give anyone confidence in that.

Planning to kill him is terrible, but was the spying actually illegal? With all the permissions the government has on spying, I have such a hard time determining if any single instance of spying is illegal or not, regardless of whether it's ethical.

Keep in mind that for virtually all e-ink devices, the display properties themselves are dictated by the display vendor, Eink.com, who have a monopoly under patent. It's as if, say, all OELD / LCD displays were manufactured by a single company. (There's a high concentration within that field, but not a complete monopoly.)

https://www.eink.com/

Display characteristics, properties, sizes, and price are pretty much determined by Eink.
I surmise also to exercise caution when considering en passant in some but not all american correctional facilities. And certainly don't pronounce it with a heavy french accent if you must, as it might arouse suspicion, even if your immediate opponent seems reasonable.

I wish we had a process similar in efficiency to a heat pump that moves gradients of diffuse molecules than thermal energy. But the osmotic pressure or other diffuse gradient movement methods I'm aware of are quite energy intensive.
>>>I'm not sure why US is so against getting more of the best and the brightest, meanwhile we are pushing to get more refugees instead.

It's easier to grow the underclass of economically-distraught refugees and keep them on the "Democrat plantation", just like they've kept black Americans for decades. Legally-immigrating, high-income naturalized citizens are probably more politically right-leaning than people assume[1]. That is counter to the objectives of the Democratic Party, who have been trying to create a de facto uni-party system at the national level via demographic manipulation[2].

Maybe you're right. I had a poke through the HTML a while back, and there are actually tables-within-tables for some reason. It was way more complicated than I expected it to be. It does seem kind of weird that it still uses tables for layout, when there are so many easier and better ways to do it.

CSS could match the current appearance exactly. I bet if dang put up the code on GitHub he'd get PRs fixing tons of stuff within a week.
This is a great narrative! It just doesn’t work out for most people.

I would say that if you want to hit a lotto ticket, this is your best route. Increased variance is your friend when you are at the downside and it’s all uphill.

But if you want to get rich, and you are the average HN reader, it’s better to bet on the typical case.

(That said, if you have a list of companies that meet your current criteria, I would love to know! I know a lot of faang engineers who are bored and would love a shot at millions.)
I had no idea that you can get RSUs this way. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to search for related to this?

Part of why I wanted to be a contractor was precisely because I didn’t want to play the startup lottery. But RSUs would give an alternative.
>You're probably not going to get rich from working a day job. You're replaceable, and if you left your job tomorrow then you'll soon be forgotten. This is true for the majority of software engineers.

I'd honestly be replace "software engineers" with "all jobs"; your post is highly relevant to most fields.

I suppose I could mention the city-states of Mesopotamia such as Sumer, Akkad, and Babylon. They left behind a rather rich literature which survived to this day (thanks to having been written on clay tablets instead of papyrus), though much of it remained inaccessible until the Cunieform script was deciphered in the 1800s. As with Romans and Greeks you'll find a wide variety of texts from the religious and scientific, to legal treatises, to contracts and shopping lists.

> How might they quickly skim those offerings to get a decent idea of what their options are in a way even remotely similar to the speed and efficacy of, say, icons?

They don’t. Why would you expect them to be able to?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like the premise here is that the only purpose for a career is to "get rich". I think a lot of people genuinely enjoy the work they do, and the relationships they have with their co-workers. Or, on the darker side of things, over-work themselves because they can't find anything engaging _outside of work_. For both of those groups of people, they might not actually enjoy getting rich and retiring early.

At the same time, it seems like your yes-person friend is both willingly over-working themselves and complaining that they are overworked. So I'll agree that it doesn't make much sense - unless they truly are aiming for an early retirement.
Were you making a very small amount then? You said you were in college 20 years ago. Did you start your career very late or do you want an very large salary before you have kids? I made $60K right out of college (far less than 20 years ago) as a software developer at a small consultancy in one of the cheapest cities in the country.

People on here are always talking about changing jobs and getting a huge salary increase, but these numbers don't make sense unless you were tremendously underpaid for many years.

Tesla probably could pick up your plates and other forms of identification and label you as not so safe.
