I believe 1password will implement passkeys at some point in the future. However that doesn't take away from the concern that passkeys are designed from the ground up to ensure vendor lock-in (there almost certainly won't be a way to migrate passkeys from Apple's or Google's keychains to 1password). With passwords there is a clear, if insecure, fallback -- simply copy the password over. With passkeys, you're subject to Big Tech's whims.

It is not possible to take anything Apple or Google do in this area to be in good faith.
You reject the framing that there were major differences of opinion in the appropriate public health policy to adopt in the presence of COVID-19?

Censorship? What the OP means by censorship is not what I mean by censorship. Were heterodox ideas etc. surrounding COVID-19 severely criticized? Yes. Were they even limited or deleted from social media? Yes. Were they still published in blogs? In various traditional media? Yes. Could you encounter them on cable news? Yes. Was anyone tried or even arrested for promoting or distributing such ideas? No.

That's not the way we treat the announcement of a lemonade stand, but it's also not what I consider censorship in any meaningful way.
That source says that the majority of post grads In the US work as free lancers. And you’re still implying that in 5 years the majority of all workers will be free lancers. These statistics are a joke. I literally do not know a single freelancer in my post grad program. I have never met a freelancer who is a post grad. I don’t care enough to sift through the bullshit of your source to see what they actually researched. Upwork is a bullshit site that wants 30 YOE workers to program for $20.00 an hour. This HN post is a waste of time.

Thanks for the source though, don’t mean to sound annoyed at you but rather the post in general.
Poor people don't use/waste electricity in large volumes because they are poor and don't have money to waste.

Rich people can waste enormous amounts of electricity and not be financially affected. It benefits rich people to schedule running the two clothes washers and two clothes driers at off-peak rates. Poor people don't have energy fat like this to cut.
For those curious about what it actually is:

> The Securing Open Source Software Act would direct CISA to develop a risk framework to evaluate how open source code is used by the federal government. CISA would also evaluate how the same framework could be voluntarily used by critical infrastructure owners and operators. This will identify ways to mitigate risks in systems that use open source software. The legislation also requires CISA to hire professionals with experience developing open source software to ensure that government and the community work hand-in-hand and are prepared to address incidents like the Log4j vulnerability. Additionally, the legislation requires the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to issue guidance to federal agencies on the secure usage of open source software and establishes a software security subcommittee on the CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee.

So basically just another framework to evaluate risk for use by the Federal Government. A nothing burger as it were. Which I am on one hand glad about, because I don't like the government starting to get involved in Open Source which is at it's core "Here's some code I wrote or whatever", but it also isn't doing anything for security.
I think can relate. My impression is that i can be really creative e.g. writing music mostly when I am alone for a substantial period of time. Looks like the terms "melancholic void" or "intellectual loneliness" match that experience quite well.
Certainly - WebAuthn is an open standard, and passkey appears to just be "passwordless FIDO2" (all open standards) with shiny branding around it.

That means anyone can implement it, including a physical token (which can be entirely open source, like the solokeys dongle).

The real concern here is friction for the "average end user" - passkeys IMHO are a net-good thing, as long as we don't see this result in everyone regressing towards "single factor auth" in some way. As it stands though, WebAuthn/Passkey gives you a level of phishing resistance that ought to raise the bar on compromising accounts.

The part I do fear about third party password managers is that they'll potentially end up lowering the level of security that WebAuthn heralded, by normalising pure "software" authenticators - putting TOTP seeds into bitwarden alongside passwords feels like putting all your eggs in one basket, even if it's a reasonably good basket. A physical WebAuthn key gives you a level of hardware isolation (limited attack surface, time-bounded attack surface, physical contact required per-authentication) that will be lost if everyone moves to software-based tokens.

On the other hand, if people are replacing a globally re-used password with a "passkey", it's a lot better. If they are replacing a hardware token with a software token, that's a small step backwards. If most people are still manually using the same password everywhere, it's probably a net step forwards.

The software we write is far more complex than a kitchen appliance.

For simple systems, yes, test all components, build in redundancies, etc. All those things that made reliable system design possible in the 1950s.

For complex systems you're quickly wasting your time on diminishing returns. The failure modes of complex systems lie in obscure interactions between components conditional on rare input combinations. You have to find that stuff out in production. You have to make users into testers.

However, there are better and worse ways to do this. Ideally, a failure should only be experienced by a user with a fallback solution, not a plain failure to accomplish the task entirely.
Your exhalations are a direct result of the chemical reaction that gives you energy: C + O2 -> CO2. C is your carbon-based food, O2 is your inhalation, and CO2 is your exhalation. When you burn more calories, you increase the speed of that reaction, and you breath out more CO2. That is why exercise makes you lose weight (and why it makes you heat up). They are inextricable. The mass has to go somewhere!
>Does Firefox have a future?

Well, mobile is the future of computing. Does Firefox have a future on mobile? I think the answer is clearly no.

Firefox will be relevant only until the Desktop PC paradigm fades into obscurity.

Eventually Chrome and Safari will join Firefox in obscurity, as more content moves behind apps and walled gardens, and as the desktop paradigm falls into disuse.

Give it 10 years.

That's actually not nearly as bad as I expected, though it assumes perfectly efficient energy use. 18.8 kwh to obtain enough lithium carbonate to make batteries for maybe a hundred cars? That seems like a pretty good deal, if the water itself is available at sea level. (If sea water is good enough and doesn't create additional environmental concerns, then it's basically free.)

I can't help but think there must be a math error somewhere, since the result would imply that it should be approximately possible for a Nissan Leaf to pull a train of over a dozen fluid-containing cars from sea level to 12,000 feet on a single charge. That doesn't seem right, but I don't see anything wrong with the math so maybe my intuition is just wrong.
> Heroku is going away because it no longer works as a business.

I would rather say 'It no longer works as a business for Salesforce.'
We use LXC on physically distributed Proxmox nodes. It let's us easily launch new VMs and migrate around when we need to. Nothing we have is very complicated but it works well. We use SaltStack to tear up special debug containers with a bunch of integrated tools. To update Saltstack just downloads the new container and creates a new container in Proxmox.

I guess you could technically replace what we built with pure Docker but the Proxmox UI is a godsend for our on the ground support engineers who aren't the most technically savvy types.

We started going down the Kubernetes route initially but it quickly turned into an absolute nightmare for us and we gave up quickly and we're all pretty strong with Kubernetes. I guess though when all you need is a few stateful services running the "dynamic scaling" of kubernetes is kind of pointless.
I use Kubernetes within an LXD container with Btrfs backing storage. This isn't anything special. But it has two advantages. The first is that you could try out multi-node K8s clusters on a single system. The second is that the containers can be deleted and rebuilt easily without affecting the host system. Both are very useful when you're learning multi-node K8s. I plan to expand my homelab to true multi-node setup. However, I will probably retain K8s inside LXD. It is useful to run certain applications that demand full control of the system - like PiHole or MailInABox. There are probably better ways of hosting them. However, LXD gives me a lot of flexibility to experiment and make mistakes.

I agree - I think password managers will (soon enough) implement passkeys. As you say though, the current implementations deliver lock-in "by-design" (but with legitimate reason - you don't want to have an API that shares the AES-256 root key that decrypts passkey keyblobs!)

This could all be mitigated with a little bit of tooling (allowing an existing passkey to enrol a new passkey from another device), which would also help users of hardware tokens to potentially create a way to auto-enrol an off-site key.

I do believe WebAuthn is a good-faith attempt to get away from the pervasive problem of "use the same useless password everywhere", but it makes a range of compromises which (intentionally or otherwise) create a level of cryptographic vendor lock-in that I don't think many people have recognised yet.
The latter. Or both: there isn't really a distinction between blockchain and scams. On the merits, blockchains are inarguably a regression on the status quo; philosophically, they solve problems that don't exist in reality. (Censorship is a non-issue.) They exist for one reason only: to provide a faster vehicle for money seeking return. Prior to blockchains, a 100M fund would have to wait ca. 10 years for a ROI; now, due to lack of regulation and etc. etc., you can get a return in 12 to 18 months. That's it. That's all there is.
Don't be so sure!

Humans have had more genetic change in the last 50,000 years than in the 1M before that. One train of thought is, civilization put entirely new pressures on us and we adapted.

Smoke has been with us for a very long time. It's almost certain that we have some adaptation to it.
To be expected until Starlink v2 satellites start launching early next year. Right now the constellation is very constrained by local ground stations and they can’t pass data around in orbit. That will change soon, as well as major spectral capacity improvements in the new hardware.

Try to avoid negations, our subconsciousness has a hard time dealing with them.

"loving being in company" would be a positive formulation, and immediately opens up the question: in what kind of company? Maybe a fruitful question to ponder...

> A persons position on crime really depends on how they interpret this dashboard

Imagine asking SF residents to tell you:

In the past 24 months, I have:

A) seen the SFPD Crime Dashboard.

B) been the victim of at least one property or violent crime and/or have witnessed a crime being committed in broad daylight.

C) read a frightening account of a nearby crime on NextDoor, Twitter or Facebook.

I think (A) would get the fewest votes. People form opinions based on their personal experience (what they see on the streets) and the narratives of others (what friends and neighbours write). Some folks look at stats. Fewer understand them. Even fewer use them to inform their opinion (rather than to support their existing opinion).

What is the counterargument? "All criminals are just evil people and will never stop committing crime unless they are thrown in jail"?

The original line of argument was that crime went up because punishments went don't. This implicitly is built on the belief that criminals are rational actors responding to a changing incentive structure. We can therefore reduce crime by changing the incentives again so that crime is a less attractive option. There is no reason why that change needs to be the reintroduction of harsh punishments. We can also change incentives by reducing the positive benefit of crime by making sure people's basic needs are satisfied.

I haven't set foot in a Google campus for a good 9 years, but I remember every time I visited one (I went to Mountain View, YouTube, and SF on business) thinking about how it gave me flashbacks to Hewlett-Packard, both in action and appearance. OK, so HP would never have a big slide and photo booth like Google did in San Francisco, but that just felt like it was trying too hard.

(Granted, the food was a lot better at Google, and what a view of the Bay Bridge...)

I don't think it's been a scrappy startup for a long time.
Passkeys are a little different - at heart, you can export or write down (on paper, if it comes to it) your passwords, and then import them into another password manager if you choose to. If you want to move from the built-in keychain to 1Password, you can do an export/import operation, and have your passwords in 1Password.

You inherently can't copy-paste a passkey, since it's an asymmetric public/private keypair authentication. These keys are (usually) decrypted by a single symmetric key that you protect well. If you allow that key to be exported, you're back to "one password for every website"!

When this is done on a hardware-protected security engine (which doesn't permit any extraction of the key), it's arguably quite secure, but you don't then have any migration path.
Ok here’s an idea since the article touched on CGI generated content;

In the 70’s when porn was legalized there was some concern that sex offenses would rise because that media encouraged deviant behavior.

But the numbers of many studies showed that offenses dropped significantly, especially against children

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/11/101130111326.h...

Could we build an AI model to manufacture synthetic pornography?

It’s not that crazy of an idea. I think it would accomplish two goals. 1) reduce real life offending by filling a need that a not insignificant part of the population clearly have 2) destroy demand for the manufacture of commercial illegal pornography.

It’s actually a great idea. There are no victims, and it disincentivizes real world abuse and devalues commercial illegal pornography. Let them eat cake.

It’s also a great idea for a startup, no really. It could help a lot of people, save many would be victims. Like the impossible burger
Corruption exists, but at least one party isn't putting it into their platform. I'd rather a party that struggles with corruption than one that thinks corruption is the future.
Finding good therapist can be really hard. What helped me at one point were the video call therapy apps (quite a few of them in the app store, different one per market.) they do not substitute real therapy, but they help you getting into the therapy mindset where you are then motivated - and strong enough- to find a godd therapist.

> And once you extend "memory" outside the chassis, you'll have to design your application with the expectation that any memory access could fail because a network failure means the memory is no longer accessible.

You have to deal with these things anyway in any kind of distributed setting. What this kind of location-independence via SSI really buys you is the ability to scale the exact same workloads down to a single cluster or even a single node when feasible, while keeping an efficient shared-memory programming model instead of doing slow explicit message passing. It seems like a pretty big simplification.
Sorry to hear about your situation. Try activities, sports that get you out there meeting people. People wrongly assume that introverted people cope fine alone ( and introverted people also wrongly assume this). I felt myself spiralling downwards over covid lockdowns, and what I needed was to regularly get out the house and mix with other people. For me, it doesn’t have to be loads, but it has to be semi regular. Also try and get outside for a walk once in the morning and once at lunchtime. I find the combination or walk + sunlight + tiny bit of social interaction buying a coffee / lunch makes a substantial difference to my mood.

It’s a tough situation you’re in, and I’m sure many of us have had similar thoughts , aside from therapy, the only advice I can offer is sunlight + walking + some regular social interaction. Find the little joys in life, like a sunrise , or trees and birds.

Last month we had six linux desktops at work fail to boot after an upgrade using the disto's built-in update manager because of video card driver issues.

These were all workstations manned by data scientists with brains the size of planets who foolishly thought that keeping their systems up-to-date for security reasons was a good idea.

"Oh but that's Nvidia's faul.."

Doesn't matter. Has never mattered. Will never matter.

Upwards of 80% of all blue-screens that trashed Me's reputation were crappy S3 and ATI driver problems.

I'm used to it because (to ward off distro bigots) at home I use a Linux distro so cool and advanced that you've never heard of it so I fixed the issues even though that's about six levels below my pay grade.

That being said I only use Linux at home for work. And I hardly ever touch it once I get it working in case an update screws up OFED, or CUDA, or some other unresolvable package dependency hell conflict nightmare.

"Oh the most current release changed the path to 'foo' even though that had been the standard for 40 years because some maintainer got a wild hair up their ass and wanted things to be 'elegant' and we didn't even bother to create a symlink" or "you can't have that version of a package because sixteen layers down is a dependency we don't want to have to deal with upgrading just do it yourself lol" every couple of months? Yuck.
