> Right now Google is not asking information that would allow them to really verify my identity.

I have a google account made in 2004 (it is nearly 18 years old) and some time ago youtube started to ask me to verify my age by sending my ID or using a credit card.

I think it was a "bug" on their side, since a google search showed a lot of other people complaining about this -> verify your age.. on a 15+ year old youtube account.
I can't upvote your comment enough. There is a lot of negativity in men that have a hard time dating. It's all the fault of some external thing that can't be fixed of course. While in reality, there are plenty of things you can do.

I would much rather be a physically unattractive guy than a physically unattractive woman. Women consider so many different traits that it's easier for guys to work on becoming attractive for women.
I’m curious if they can do this/how politically feasible it is.

In Canada, banks have this for things like e-transfers and preventing suspicious transactions. However, when people acknowledge the warnings and still go ahead anyway, they cry bloody murder and the bank ends up refunding people for fraudulent activity the people explicitly authorized after being warned.
You would have to actually be in the KDE user community to understand this terminology.
KDE Neon is the distro that KDE created.
What they are trying to say that its based on their flagship Linux distro.
I think they might have written that in the most new user unfriendly way they could.
Hi, I'd love to chat -- could you please email me jordan[at]astro[dot]codes?
Perhaps you’ve noticed this already but having bought my last TV in 2008 I had no idea how cheap they’ve gotten! Checking Amazon right now I see a 50” 4k Samsung for $450.

By this logic, don't the Greeks owe the Israelis a nonillion USD for the Alexandrian conquests?
The crux of the problem is that gmail is, for billions of people, both their primary email account, which is superbly central to many things that we do in 2022, and the way in which we get authenticated and essentially "manage" our online identity.

These two things would ideally stay separate. Of course, an expert in Computer Science would certainly have his/her own tld domain with email, and maybe use gmail only for proper email work, right?

Well... Not so sure about that. I'm a tech person myself, and my gmail is my online identity. I would suffer the same fate if I were to go through the same issue as OP's mother.

Perhaps there's space here for a startup, or a service, that allows you to fix this. Something that would make regulatory bodies not too unhappy about it.
> This is what happens when employees fear management. Lessons to be learned.

You just listed the things what management decided to do, so risk aversion was on management side, not employees.

Just like the idea to copy S/360.
Long long long time ago I joined Sun after contributing to GlassFish and NetBeans for a while (documents, test cases, some new plugins for NetBeans). They approached me and hired me to work on GlassFish application server.
> And that's totally fine. People should not treat IT services as something reliable,

Problem is the "society" around us (for lack of a better word) treats IT services as something reliable, see how more and more countries go digital/electronic only when it comes to payments or relationship with the government.

For that price you can get a 77in OLED tv from LG and a raspberry which you can use for Bigscreen. Might be better if your main use isn't prone to burn-in (e.g. by displaying the same UI elements over months).
The current limiting factor in scaling out trains in germany is NIMBYs.
Ad train system that is significantly more silent, with a lower area footprint due to pylon tracks has a serious advantage there.

If you cover the track in solar panels you get the additional argument that it replaces "ugly wind turbines in their backyard" (their words not mine, I love the sight of wind turbines).

You are probably misremembering, as DNS queries and responses don't contain dots (as the article points out). Maybe you were missing the \0 terminator after the last name segment? In which case it's quite clear why the request was failing, as it would have not been unambiguously parseable.
"Back in the 1980s, Japan was portrayed as the greatest economic threat to the United States, and allegations of intellectual property theft were only part of Americans' vilification. Thirty years later, Americans have made China the villain, when, just like three decades ago, they should be looking squarely in the mirror."

“When governments permit counterfeiting or copying of American products, it is stealing our future, and it is no longer free trade.” So said US President Ronald Reagan, commenting on Japan after the Plaza Accord was concluded in September 1985.

> Do people just not actually believe ... how decades of disinvestment leading to violence just might possibly lead to generational issues?

It's a bit fuzzy, yes. It would clarify the argument to replace "generational issues" with a specific concept, and skip the performative hedge.

The bailey seems to be "poverty implies violence." What's the motte?

Syllabus of Ukraine class - "The Making of Modern Ukraine," Fall 2022
- https://snyder.substack.com/p/syllabus-of-my-ukraine-lecture...

"...Topics there include the Kyiv state, early modern Lithuania, and Poland during the age of discovery. Ukraine also provides an intense example of the confrontation between modern national politics and extreme colonial alternatives from the far right and far left...

...Modern topics therefore include Russian and Austrian empires; Jewish and Polish urban society; Romanticism and modern nationalism; the Bolshevik Revolution and its Ukrainian counterparts; Soviet modernization and terror; Nazi occupation and the Holocaust; and ethnic cleansing...

...Finally, contemporary Ukrainian history poses in striking form the question of the functionality and durability of the post-imperial state. The last few topics are thus: the late Soviet Union; problems of post-Soviet rule, the Orange Revolution and Maidan and the war of 2014; and the present war..."
Banking is a heavily-regulated industry. Their regulators can (& have) seized & shut down a fair number of banks. And the Rich & Powerful would react very badly to any "a bank can lock you out of your money..." precedents.

Basically (& sadly), you're comparing blueberry waffles to the moon. I blame the English usage of "account" for both situations, even though there's very little similarity between a bank "account" and a Gmail "account".
I've gotten an offer from OTRS AG after contributing some to their core (back then Open Source) ticket system.

I've declined, and a few years later they basically closed-sourced their platform (it's still source available, but only with years delay, and they no longer accept feature contributions). Can't say I regret my choice.
I really hope that science will be able to produce synthetic diamonds of any size, shape, form, and color soon, so people stop fancying them that much. In the end, they are just crystals with funny optical effects, their place is in the physics lessons in school and maybe in museums.
I got locked out once with very little hope of recovering my account (hit the password guess limit or something) but luckily I was still logged in on my old laptop so could change the settings enough to get in again.
I'm pretty sure you'll only ever be able to have either an open source TV or all the streaming apps. No reason for Amazon, Netflix, YouTube, or the others to support this platform.
How are people saying Jesus said it's OK for people to abuse women? I don't think there's anything like that. Also Jesus gave plenty of advice in non-parables, e.g John 13:34:

Let at least the long-term customers pay later, or let them use your product for free while you set up another payment processor. You may ask your customers, which payment options work for them, and use that as help to pick a more reliable alternative.

I relogged into gmail recently and no 2fa was required.
In hindsight this is always easy to say. But film was (and still is) a money-intensive art. And like usual in the arts the people with the vision are not the people the money. When Godard started out there was not a lot of money and infrastructure for the type of films people like him wanted to make. Yet someone like him had to witness that what was in bis eyes utter trash had became budgets he could only dream of.

On top of that his film making was certainly interwoven with the upcoming 68 counter culture and has to be seen as the effort of an generation to break with the existing tradition.

Typically what film makers like him tried to reach was not that all films should be like his, but that there is the chance for something else to exist than cheap, dumb entertainment and that film makers can also try to make actual art with their works without always having to do a target market analysis.
Magic Merlin is awesome but it's for a pretty short duration and then you have to wean for sleep sacks right? That was my understanding at least, so we went right to a sleep sack and just bundled it with sleep training to avoid the extra step. But so many of our friends swear by the merlin.

The author carefully avoids the continued embarrassments of official Egyptology:

* Its insistence upon dating artifacts to whichever pharaoh last carved his cartouche into some convenient surface, often much more crudely than the work itself.

* The overwhelmingly finer and more precise polish and symmetry of the oldest stonework. Most particularly, the tens of thousands of bowls and bottles abandoned in galleries under the Step pyramid. Some are of corundum, the stone of rubies and sapphires. Many are carved nearly paper thin. Exactly precise mirror symmetry is found only in the oldest statuary, cut from the hardest rock.

* An entire lack of evidence of tools capable of such precision work in such hard stone.

Numerological coincidences are made rich fun of, but the Egyptians, as was common in antiquity, were keen numerologists, and naturally treated numerical coincidences as divinely significant. The builders seem to know of the near match of certain fractions of pi and of phi to better than 0.1%, and use it in especially sacred spots.

Ancient knowledge of usefully precise values of geometric constants, even where not perfect, should not provoke skepticism: they could measure. Building these values into sacred structures need not have been meant to communicate anything but their own piety. Every dimension must be in some ratio to others, and may often be freely chosen. Why would they not choose sacred numbers for sacred constructions?

Perhaps most oddly, though, the cubit used in construction (e.g. in the dimensions of the "King's Chamber", 10x10x20) exactly matches the French "royal cubit" of two centuries ago. The SI meter, officially assigned one forty-millionth of the Earth's circumference (why?), is related to this cubit by another <0.1% coincidence.

Perseverance rover finds organic matter ‘treasure’ on Mars
I feel that many of the answers here, which explain what could have been done beforehand to prevent this - are not very helpful to someone who's already locked out of their account.

It's never gonna be possible to 100% prevent any possibility that could cause loss of access to your 2FA. Some people will always fall through the cracks - whether that's due to their own negligence, lack of technical understanding or some algorithmic false positive doesn't really matter imho.

The real problem here is, that there's nothing that can be done to resolve something like that, AFTER it already happened. Not even if you were willing to pay for support to help you.

If you got good contacts, are famous, manage to go viral or something, you might be able to actually get help - but as a regular, boring, everyday person, you're just fucked. The only "advice" you are gonna get is: "you should have done this or that beforehand..." - and the obvious answer to that is: "I would have, had I only known!"

The only thing you can do, is post your story on HN and Twitter, and hope someone from Google reads it, and goes out of their way to actually help you - which obviously is AGAINST standard company procedure.
>Right now Google is not asking information that would allow them to really verify my identity.

Why can't they offer identity verification as an option? It's not exactly difficult to do technically.

This is already known data, you simulate the conditions of the womb and a baby in the 4th trimester (we're born early because of our big heads), will sleep easily. So swaddling, swaying and shhhing all simulate being in the womb where you hear white noise, are tightly confined and gently rocked or swayed by the mother's natural movement as she walks around, etc.

I read about it with my own children and it worked, and there was science behind it.

Which is why the guillotine was invented. The local executioner often had little experience and would often botch the job.
The punishment is baked into the protocol I think. If the protocol sees a node trying to create a fork that node gets spanked. I think all actions are signed now.

I don't really know, I just read one article about it this week. I've personally cashed out and checked out a long time ago.
Suing a rebranding company is actually the dumbest move. If I buy Ford trucks wholesale and put my own logo on the grill and my own software on the entertainment system that uses GPL code in violation of the license, you can sue me until the cows come home but you are never going to get all the other software Ford has on that car.

The idea that a court could compel Vizio to provide enough source code that you could run your own OS on the TV is pure fantasy. You would need to obtain binary blobs for firmware and drivers from an original TV, and distributing them would in turn be software piracy.
At the time Pascal’s Wager was the general assumption. Which doesn’t change the fact that it’s false - same as this one.
I really like the MFA implementation in 1Password. You can even have it autofill from the browser plug-in so you don't need to go find your phone whenever you need to log in to AWS or whatever.
Some people travel _far_ more than others and you can be pretty sure that the distribution mirrors the wealth distribution. I have seen our borders. I am European myself, with roots in more than one country.
I agree we need more regulation..

But are you sure about this problem? If you create Shared drives in a Google workspace, they take ownership of anything I move into it (after dismissing a warninge explaining what will happen), even if I take files in folders shared to me from someone else's gmail account

(The ownership model of drive was indeed terrible before they implemented the shared/team drives.)
If Google locks you out of the account, will emails still be forwarded?
> The first study to point out this problem was from 1991… and yet we didn’t act on it.

Well, this information was acted upon, just apparently not with sufficient vigor. FDA guidance published in 2013 (originally drafted 2007) stated,

> Your study should have subjects with a range of skin pigmentations, including at least 2 darkly pigmented subjects or 15% of your subject pool, whichever is larger.

It's ironic to think that VCs, who enable a company to start and build, are ultimately invested in its demise.
No, just require them to answer their phone. Charge a fee if necessary.
This article isn't accurate, in the sense that it's actually measuring how long the operating system takes to reach the CPU's maximum clock speed, rather than how long it physically takes the CPU to reach that speed.

Modern processors can switch frequencies very fast -- generally within microseconds. An example from the machine I'm currently using:

$ grep 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo | uniq; sudo cpupower frequency-info -y -m

model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4310U CPU @ 2.00GHz
analyzing CPU 0:
maximum transition latency: 20.0 us

Even very deep CPU idle states can be exited in <1 ms.

With respect to the operating system, the amount of time it takes to reach maximum frequency from idle depends on:

- How frequently the OS checks to see if the frequency should be increased

- Whether the OS will step through increasing frequencies, or go straight to the max frequency

- If the OS is stepping through increasing frequencies, how many it needs to step through

- Whether the core is already active, or if it needs to be awakened from a sleep state first

It looks like the OP is using Windows. Windows has a number of hidden (and poorly documented) tunables that control the above settings, and would have a significant impact on how quickly a CPU can reach max frequency. Microsoft used to have an extensive document (specifically, a Word document for Windows Server 2008) describing how to tune these parameters using the `powercfg` CLI tool and provided a detailed reference for each parameter, which I unfortunately can't find anymore. It looks like Microsoft's modern server performance tuning documentation describes a subset of these parameters.[1]

Linux has similar tunables for its `ondemand` CPU scheduler.[2] It looks like the default sampling rate to determine whether to adjust the frequency is 1000 times greater than the transition latency, or about 20 milliseconds on my machine.

I'm not familiar with macOS, but it likely has something similar (although it may not be user-accessible).

> That last part is important because AWS has a huge barrier: the number of MFA devices you get is one, which means you either need insecure things like synced TOTP seeds or you have to be comfortable never losing your Yubikey. I have been asking our TAM to prioritize fixing that for years so backups can be a real thing.

Actually, can we mark AWS as insecure? Seriously, it was a bother at the time it was rolled out but now I could say that Amazon is insecure. If they could not bother with this, there are definitely more security holes intentionally hidden from the general public.
Lessons from this situation:

1. Prefer an email provider with human support - which probably means paying money; otherwise, choose a free email provider with a better record on these matters than Google/Alphabet.

If you do use Google:

2. Prefer independent sign-in on websites which offer signing in with a Google account.

3. Periodically back up your email someplace that's not Google, preferable on your own HDD and with a copy on removable media.
Recently my phone broke and it took a day to get a new one. I was so glad to have my 2fa codes somewhere else as well. I'd never want to rely solely on one device for access to everything.

Apples plan is that I need to own several Apple devices for that, this is a non-starter for me.

This isn't recommended. Also, presumably by end-to-end you meant post auth business flow too. Such as reconciliation, settlement, generating tax receipts, invoices etc.,

In general, all the data in production should be real, as much as possible.

If the amount is big (e.g., say jewellery story) then figure out a way to recoup/refund the money out of band in a way that leaves no trace in production system. E.g., reimburse it, put it under QA budget or some such.
