If by unintuitive you mean “Can I look at it without training and know what’s going on.” But the problems they solve are also unintuitive. Only, those issues can be buried under a tangle of nested callbacks that look correct, intuitively.

(Usually) rents are already as high as they can be, in aggregate. In other words, the market cannot bear a higher cost for the good, so an increase in cost has to be eaten by the landlord.

This is actually very easy to see in countries with no 30 year mortgages, because landlords have to refix their mortgage rates every 1-5 years. This means you can see regular landlord cost changes as interest rates fluctuate, as well as the impact on rents.

The impact on rents is essentially 0 as landlord costs change; instead, rents follow tenant incomes, because landlords are able to charge more as long as tenant incomes increase.

Summary:

1) Extremely fast GPU-accelerated terminals have a latency of slightly more than one frame due to only rendering once per frame (for performance and latency reasons).

2) Gnome-terminal sucks.

3) Old school terminals, like xterm, are extremely slow in practice, but look very fast on benchmarks like this, as they render on TTY input and do not wait (thus wasting time and latency rendering unseen changes).

4) This article is old, and misses out a lot of optimization work that has occurred on Alacritty.

5) The author of this article has a 60hz monitor. These numbers would be unreproducable on higher refresh monitors.
So how are folks doing "Classic Mac" development these days?

Was this done on real hardware? Are folks developing within simulators? Just curious what the Classic development experience is like today.

Sometimes I muse it might be fun to dabble, but then I look at that 9" screen and go "Um, nah."

For example, many folks do CP/M development, but almost none of them do it actually on a CP/M machine. I think that's similar for many retro projects.
I used to use System 7 on a Mac Plus right up until about 2002.

That alongside (and on top of) a huge, noisy 100mb Frog SCSI drive and a StyleWriter II printer made for a surprisingly useful machine.

The Plus still works fine today, though the Frog died long ago.
> The generalized solution to this is allowing 3rd parties to be your passkey provider, so that you can choose how your passkeys are stored

The password manager I use has no cloud component (which is why I chose it), and addresses this by allowing me to export my password collection to an encrypted backup file.

Would this be a thing that the passkey folks would be OK with? That would ease a lot of my hesitation.

I'm not completely sure, but my understanding is that it's basically the same principle as SSH keypairs, with the added twist that the user never gets direct access to the private keys.

The keys are also per-device, so e.g. if you use your Google account from your phone, your laptop and your workplace PC, there would be three public keys associated with your account.

Because the private key (in principle) doesn't ever need to leave the device, it could be stored in a TPM, Secure Enclave or similar chip. The device itself is also supposed to protect the key with some sort of local authentication, i.e. biometrics or a PIN. That stuff only happens locally on the device though and doesn't involve Google's servers in any way.

Consequently, if you want to log in from a new device, you can't just copy over the key - you have to perform some complicated dance where the new device and an old device that you have already registered work together to generate a new keypair for the new device.

If you don't have an old device, e.g. because you're a non-techie and only ever used your account on your phone and now your phone just broke? Though luck, I guess?

Same goes for blocking a key: In theory, you can block access for each device individually - however, you need to be able to access your account using one working device in order to do so.

(There is also the hilariously useless flow of "delegating" to a device, for when you're really really really want to check emails from your friend's phone but also have your own phone right with you in your pocket. It will not actually help you if you want to check emails from your friend's phone because you have forgotten your's. This feature sounds a lot like they needed something to respond with if someone asks about logging in from 3rd party devices - without making that usecase actually practical.)

So I guess all that does make stealing the private key somewhat hard: Phishing is out of the question as the user can't access the key even if they wanted to. Even if you got hold if the physical device, you'd have to get the key out of the TPM.

The bigger problems I see is that your account is now tied to your devices instead of, well, you: If someone steals your phone and manages to guess the PIN or get through the biometric auth, they have instant access to everything. On the other hand, if you have no registered device left, you're effectively locked out of your account.

(All that assuming if passkeys were the only option for logging in. As of now, they still seem to plan with passwords as fallback, so that's just hypothetical)
I think that's overly simplistic and a bit misleading. Banks weren't betting that rates would stay low, they were betting that their depositors wouldn't run in Mass.

How many of your customers will flee is much more difficult to Gauge then if rates will go up.

This is why we see winners and losers. Most banks have the same exact Long-term securities and will continue to make money off of them.

It isn't as much about the investment as it is the investor.

Bondholders get the $$ first when a company goes under. And typically businesses don't completely disappear and lose all their assets. They usually have a slow decay then get acquired by someone else who takes over the debt.

In any case these factors will presumably lead to an interest rate premium for bondholders. It's just a question of whether you want to take the risk or not.

Biometrics are not it. Anyone can forcefully grab your finger and place it onto your phone screen. They can hold the phone up to your face.

Secure keys or passwords (actual authority) are only vulnerable to rubber-hose cryptanalysis, but you can use plausibly deniable measures to reduce the risk.

I am a showdead advocate, but the 'actual conversation' seems completely reasonable to downvote.

It links a review of the Moderna paper by Alex Berenson, a popular COVID denialist who has repeatedly made verifiably false claims about the effectiveness of vaccines. Commenters defending the article in the reply are insisting on non-sequitor points like "the COVID vaccine offered no protection" and that there was a "conspiracy" to release it to the public anyway.

Prior to COVID, Berenson acquired notoriety for publishing a book-length polemic claiming marijuana use causes psychosis and violent mental illness, supported by a veritable museum of rhetorical fallacies. It received reviews like the following from Columbia,

>"As scientists with a combined 70-plus years of drug education and research on psychoactive substances, we find Berenson's assertions to be misinformed and reckless."

So anyone familiar with Berenson's reputation would rightfully be skeptical of axe-grinding claims about medicine that are cited only to him. On par to that reputation, Berenson includes essential factual mistakes in his review of the paper, such as referring to death certificates to state that RSV kills approximately 400x less American adults every year than the NFID reports. That kind of mistake is easy to make if you lack essential foundational knowledge about what you are analyzing, and have already settled on the point you want to make before you go looking for evidence.

It would make sense Berneson can't conduct a good analysis of the paper, because he has no formal medical education and his entire "career" commenting on medicine has consisted of peddling conspiracy theories after concluding his work as a novelist.

If you are insisting that post is "substantive," and that it wasn't reasonable for it to be flagged by this community per the community's guidelines, I'd be curious why. This is the current top post of the thread, so maybe you can reply to reintroduce what you feel is a substantive subject of discussion in a less inflammatory, conspiratorial way, and without staking it on an article by someone outside professional medicine containing rudimentary errors.

The MiSTer project[0] is a wonderful open-source introduction to a practical use case for FPGAs. It uses verilog to describe how the DE10-Nano chip should be set up to resemble various classic computers, arcade machines, and video game consoles. With a single device you can have an Apple II+, Super Street Fighter II Turbo, and a SNES. Currently it supports up to the PlayStation for console cores, which is probably the upper bounds for the DE10-Nano. If you want more info, My Life in Gaming has a great overview video[1] of the MiSTer that covers it in depth.

The entire project feels perfectly in line with hacker mentality and is exciting to watch grow. There's nothing like playing Super Metroid with an original SNES controller on a CRT at the end of the day.

Getting rid of the file hierarchy was like saying "Well, most people read at a six grade level, lets publish the New York Times as picture books."

Right as the parent mentions, it only allows grouping among sites that are logically owned by the same entity anyway, if someone wanted to make this work with first-party cookies, they could redirect from myapplication.com to myapplication.owning-party.com (which is what google does with gmail.com -> mail.google.com today)

This just allows you to do that while maintaining security boundaries around things like user generated content (e.g. facebook.com vs. fbcdn.net).

This doesn't allow some random site that uses third party ads to allow doubleclick cookie access, or vice versa.

(3) therefore, companies have to issue more equity, leading to dilution

The bash you're seeing is a symlink to busybox, as are all busybox applets.

You can configure busybox to install an applet named "bash", but it's not a full bash shell. It's basically busybox ash, with maybe a few bash-specific extensions implemented. For example, it doesn't support arrays; `arr=(10 20)` will give you a syntax error.

In a default configuration, there is no "bash" applet. You can optionally configure busybox to alias "bash" to either "ash" or "hush" (and likewise for "sh"). This allows the use of "#!/bin/bash" scripts, but only if they don't use bash-specific features not supported by busybox.
