I have zero sympathy for Australia's inability to elect competent government.

They signed up for free services like every other chump on the planet, with the same terms of service, with the same naive, zero-fucks-given attitude toward privacy, service continuity, or responsibility, and it bit them in the ass while highlighting their stupidity. This story is going to get repeated over and over until western governments catch up to social media.
That's a minor detail that I, admittedly, got incorrect while paraphrasing you but ultimately doesn't change the crux of my point.
Well, so far all the results are consistent with supersymmetry, so in that sense it's provided confirmatory evidence. Are you saying that someone promised much stronger confirmatory or falsificatory evidence?

I don’t think it’s new, just more visible than it used to be.

When I was a teenager, I took the New Age/occult section of the bookstore seriously[0]. It feels silly in retrospect, but it’s not really any weirder than the religious beliefs I was brought up with, nor the presence of horoscopes in all the newspapers and advertised elsewhere without getting banned under the Fraudulent Mediums Act 1951, nor the then-new National Lottery being shown with a regular segment by a fortune teller called Mystic Meg, nor the endless TV shows about ancient aliens and ghosts and telepathy, and you might be surprised how long people continued to say crop circles “had to be supernatural” after their secret was revealed to be two blokes and a stick.

Edit: Oh, and my mum insisted on handing out homeopathic sand and white paint pigment[2]. And the Bach flower remedies “for memory” (she got Alzheimer’s 20 years younger than her mum). Plus all the stuff about crystal powers, dowsing rods, the whole caboodle.

I read a ridiculous text, and I then I tried to figure out what made the author write that ridiculous text. After which I responded with the hypotesis that was the result of my pondering.

The pondering is not intended as a truth about the authors mental state, it is simply my intuition of an idea that a mind that would write such a statement might be blind to.

But who knows... here I am on the internet trying out my ideas.
I do sincerely hope you're joking; the guardian got absolutely crucified by the british government at that time.

By doing that, you are increasing your trusted code base by several orders of magnitudes doing that. This might be fine for your purposes, but in a corporate environment, it might very much not be.

> Then I only need to trust the specs, not the HSM vendor.

You do trust the HSM (vendor) no matter how you use it. Ironically, the more modern a cryptographic protocol is, the more opportunity for surreptitious key exfiltration there is. This could be in the form of predictable (using a shared secret) initialization vectors, wrapped keys and much more.

You also trust an HSM to be more tamper-resistant and/or more hardened against logical attacks than a regular computer, or there would not really be a point in using one in the first place.
If GCS84 has the zero point 102m east, what are they using as a reference from which to determine that? How do they choose the position of their zero line? I’d have thought the zero line would be the reference from with other points would be determined. Unless they used the international date line as the reference perhaps.

Your can't know that, there's too many variables. Let's assume a terrible scenario with massive heatwaves across the Middle East and Central and Southern Asia (like the ones that have already happened, including recently, in Iraq and and India) that get too frequent and unbearable. Add in food supply problems due to droughts, fertilizer shortages, etc. Now you have millions of migrants going to Europe , or at least North. No one can reliably predict how such a scenario plays out, migrant crisis are unpredictable.
> A given relying party can choose to use or not use attestation and, if they choose to use it, which certificates to trust.

True, and a website could decide to issue its own certificates rather than get one from a CA trusted by browsers, but in practice (and potentially one day by law) most sites will defer to the FIDO Alliance to determine which devices are "sufficiently secure".

> the FIDO Alliance--which is just a standards body and does not (AFAIK) even publish anything like a CRL for "bad" attestation keys

"The FIDO Alliance Metadata Service (MDS) is a centralized repository of the Metadata Statement that is used by the relying parties to validate authenticator attestation and prove the genuineness of the device model."[0]

> That's crazy; can you point out where anyone other than you has ever proposed this?

"If the private ECDAA attestation key sk of an authenticator has been leaked, it can be revoked by adding its value to a RogueList."[1]

> DNA scan? What are you talking about?

I picked a deliberately extreme example to make the point that there are requirements for these devices that users might not be happy with (but might not have any choice about, once the capability becomes ubiquitous). That specific example may never come to pass, but I don't think we should assume that allowing RPs to put arbitrary conditions on the hardware we use is a power that won't be abused.

For added context: "FIDO will soon be launching a biometric certification program that ensures biometrics correctly verify users. Both certifications show up as metadata about the authenticator, providing more information to enable services to establish stronger trust in the authenticators.)"[2]

> This assertion you are making, while bizarre and wrong ... a bad-faith argument.

Maybe you should have assumed good faith.

> They seemed to think they could significantly increase output without decreasing quality.

An executive is quoted, on their strategy, as saying “We succeed if 1 in 10 shows is a hit.” I think it’s pretty clear they didn’t think they were pumping out pure winners.
Something you is a an authentication factor that doesn’t need to be secret to be secure. That’s the whole point. You can have a high-res 3d model of my finger but you can’t create a human with my fingerprint.

In the same way that the security of something you know is a scale based on “how difficult is your password to guess” or “how hard is it to crack the hash” the security of something you are is a scale based on “how difficult is it for someone to create a fake that tricks this specific machine into thinking it’s reading metrics from a live human.”

The security lives in the system reading the metrics not your body which is why you don’t have to rotate your face every 90 days.

A cheap fingerprint reader is the 4 digit pin of something you are. Retina scans that take temperature, look for blood flow and eye movement are the correct horse battery staple.

The thread started with you insisting a C-level conception of pointers is essential to coding C++, which turns out to be false.

Learning C first is a very bad way to learn C++. One can pick up pointers later, and asm blocks after that.
I suspect the thing people are anchoring on is the word “republican”. I’ve heard a similar claim about the mechanism you describe, but it was with regard to a group actually likely to have worms — I don’t have a strong reason to think the USA has a worm problem, despite all the anger I see directed at the American medical system.

They already have simple A-Z listings.

All TV shows A-Z:
https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/83?so=az

All movies A-Z:
https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/34399?so=az

You can find it in the web UI by clicking a TV or movie page, and then choosing Sort A-Z. The reason it's so buried is that it's pretty useless. Most people don't want to scroll through a hundred mostly bad shows starting with punctuation symbols and numbers.

Agree with you that it would be lovely if Netflix had more fine-grained controls.
With a wide range of technical savviness among users, macOS tries its best to make everyone happy and IMO does a pretty decent job at it. It's loved by programmers and grandmas alike. Can't really say that about Linux or Windows.

My two preferred macOS UX features (compared to other OSs) are:

- Respect for the user: macOS doesn’t show many confirmation messages, notifications, or ad-like things. Apple promotes products in the AppStore or shows you the usual “What’s new” during a new install. But, overall is very respectful, and that includes notifications about OS upgrades. By contrast, Windows is noisy. It asks for confirmation about everything, it has trial crapware in their home editions, and decides to install an OS update without asking in the worst possible moment.

- It just works (at least for the hardware I use). This is my main complain with Linux DEs. I know it improved a lot, but I still have memories of trying to make the Synaptic trackpad driver work or playing with xrandr to use multiple monitors during a presentation.

About the hidden shortcuts… well discoverability should be better. But, is also fun to discover those tricks.

We used to have documentation and dev libraries installed on our machines. If you downloaded, compiled and installed a new library or tool, it came with documentation. We also had CDROMs and floppies full of the source code. And you could download whole archives of HOWTOs pretty quickly. Reference manuals and books were a thing too.

Nowadays if I'm going to be working from a train or plane, I download as much as I can ahead of time. But since modern libraries and apps don't come with docs, it's harder than it used to be.

JavaScript classes are nothing more than syntactic sugar. It’s still prototype-based inheritance under the hood.

Prototypal Inheritance is considered one of JavaScript’s strong points, and many, including myself don’t think the class syntactic sugar that was added has much value. If anything it just confuses new developers.

Not just Google accounts, most Pixel phones (I think I have a Pixel 2 here) do WebAuthn. I use it for GitHub (occasionally) and my private pastebin setup which is WebAuthn protected for ease of use - and I could use it for Facebook (but I never book faces on my phone) and other services.

One bonus feature does need the Google account. If you're signing into say banana.example with WebAuthn, using Chrome on a PC, and Chrome can't see any FIDO authenticators plugged in, it will try your phone! It asks Google, hey, does this user have a phone (Chrome is signed in to your Google account) ? Google says yeah, they have "amf12's Pixel 6". The Chrome browser uses Bluetooth on the PC to say "Hey, amf12's Pixel 6 are you out there? Can you do WebAuthn?" if your phone hears the Bluetooth message it's like "Hi, amf12's Pixel 6 here. Standing ready to do WebAuthn" and then via the Google servers it's arranged that your login attempt on Chrome, on the PC, is proxied to the phone, where it appears on screen ("Do you want to log in to banana.example as amf12?") and you can OK that from the phone. Nice work flow actually, although the technology is remarkably complicated.
This is bad. This, for example, allows sites to accept only government-approved hardware keys with backdoors and do not accept self-made secure keys.
