I know the concept of passkeys isn't new to the HN crowd, but 2023 seems to be the year where it is rapidly expanding to normal users. There are some major players that now allow for passkeys as a genuine replacement for a password.

While I am comfortable using a password manager and creating a new login for new website, I see friends and family who are exasperated whenever they have to log in to their email account or streaming service on a new device, or dumbfounded when something breaks with their iCloud Keychain/Google Password Manager. Managing dozens or hundreds of passwords just seems to be really difficult for "non-tech" people. I'm not sure what the password/passkey landscape will look like in a couple of years, but I can't help but thinking, once the rough edges are smoothed out, that passkeys will make managing accounts a lot easier for people, at least make a lot more sense to people. Physically picking something up off the table and saying "here are my keys" just makes sense.

It will be interesting to see what problems are solved and what new problems arise if there is a strong shift away from passwords to passkeys, and how much lock-in there is with the big players like Apple and Google. I'm hopeful that the FIDO2 WebAuthn alliance will create an industry standard that prevents a strong lock-in, but Apple and Google do have a way of making their offerings convenient. A large shift away from passwords would be huge, and I hopeful that it will be a net-positive change.
> Hare instead aims to distill the as-of-this-decade state of the art in proven systems programming language design idioms to produce what we believe is the most robust language design right now.

This quote could really use a secondary blog post outlining why they believe this is true relative to other languages. Putting aside where it stands on a relative basis, there are several decisions that they make that I personally think are directly in opposition to the absolute goal of robust program design. One specific example is that Hare supports global variables which is pretty hard for me to accept in a greenfield language.

If they want to last 100 years, I would suggest that they go far smaller than they have. It is clear that they could self-host the Hare compiler with a much smaller subset of features than are in the language spec. That smaller Hare would be much closer to the true essence of Hare and would make it much more likely that they would create something capable of enduring for 100 years. It's a great goal but I think they have a lot of work to do if they have hope of achieving it.

> Cops do not get sent to jail if they rape or sexually assault their detainees?

Frequently, no, because of pro-cop bias among (in what is simultaneously approximately the order of both strength of pro-cop bias and temporal order in which the biases apply to a case) cops (who are the first line investigators of crime), prosecutors (who's involvement is necessary for criminal charges), judges, and the public (i.e., the jury pool.)

I was wondering something similar recently when my father-in-law was visiting us in SV from their home in Northern Virginia and asked whether there were any Capital One branches nearby. I didn't know but would have been surprised if the answer was "no", so I googled it. Turns out they've converted a bunch of their old physical branches into cafes. You can't bank in them, but you can ask banking questions (a la Genius Bar), and you can use their wifi and hangout.

You did, and now you're incorrectly claiming that the EU is forcing Meta to stop personalised ads. They're not. They're only forcing Meta to obtain user consent.

The means by which Meta is doing that are scummy and hopefully will still prove to be illegal, but none of that is the EU's doing.

I'd be surprised if there was much, if any, fallout from the disappearence of Meta from the EU space. Not that I hold out any hope of it.

Crypto is an umbrella term for a number of solutions, including blockchains (roughly 1,000+ as of right now) and cryptocurrencies (roughly 22,000+). While a given blockchain may be limited in terms of how much can be 'mined' or grow, you or I could very easily create a new cryptocurrency or even a new blockchain. Assuming we got traction with it, there would now be N+1 more out there.

I think there is a tradeoff, you can pick some customizable off the shelf software or some low code platform that fits your initial needs, that will give you speed at the risk of not being flexible enough later. Or you fire up your IDE and start from scratch, do everything on your own, that will make you slow, at the very least in the beginning, but you get all the flexibility and also all the opportunities to screw it up.
For me, the takeaway is less about why these movements are popular and more about how our perception of past events differs from our perception of current events.

The experiment (to me) shows that what appears appalling and repulsive in hindsight can feel appealing, exciting and positive in the present.

But, ultimately, this wasn't really an experiment. There was no hypothesis, and so any "results" or "conclusions" from this are going to be subjective. Doesn't mean it isn't interesting though!

No reason to feel bad! I like taking opportunities like this to respond with facts I've learned through heavy research in this area in the past few years.

I also don't want _anyone_ to feel like cattle. When I talk about apartments I want to be clear, I'm not talking about shacks with thin walls, 50 stories, and no greenspace. The ideal apartment has almost all the benefits of living in a suburb (good amount of space for yourself and others, greenery, privacy, sturdiness and soundproofing, cleanliness etc.) with the added benefit of allowing you to potentially not own a car, and without the extreme requirement of subsidies from any level of government.

These ideas are growing in popularity, in part led by content creators like Not Just Bikes, City Beautiful, Climate Town, and thought leaders like those at Strong Towns. If you have a chance, please check any of those out. I think you'll find what I found after learning about this stuff which is that no way of living is inherently evil, but some ways of living such as suburban sprawl are just more expensive in many ways. We just haven't done a good job at making those costs clear to those who live in suburbs, because governments absorb the cost and collect increased taxes from all to make up the difference. And as is so common worldwide, people tend to hate taxes, so that isn't even enough and it leads to cities with budgets that will never be healthy and simply cannot provide the services everyone wants such as regular cleaning, better education, solid public transportation, etc.
I think the most telling detail is the most difficult part of the analysis was done using chatgpt.
I'm just saying, compare what you're making to the average person your age. Take into account the amount of debt that comes along with some of the professions requiring extensive schooling. Also consider the conditions and work life balance (ex: welders can make a great deal of money however they are often away from home for months and work 6-7 days a week in rough conditions).

Even if you're not at FAANG, overall, we're making a lot of money working from a comfy chair with little to no required debt.
> selected by the Council of Ministers

I don't think that's right, is it? Apart from anything else, the Council of Ministers isn't a fixed group of people; if the meeting is about fisheries, then it's the fisheries ministers from the member governments, and so on. Each meeting of the Council of Ministers is a different group of people. And anyway, they can't select anyone they like, because each member country gets an allocation of commissioners (one or two, I think).

I believe there are plans afoot to remove that rule, so that countries like Liechtenstein no longer get one commissioner. About time too.

Yes, I think all those people lied. Didn't I say that? American "free speech absolutists" keep finding poor rationalizations to exclude the kinds of speech they happen to dislike from the definition of "free speech". By contrast, in Europe, those people simply don't call themselves absolutists, state openly that free speech has some exceptions, and don't have to rationalize anything.
I can think of few better investments than to have a reliable suite of end-to-end tests running as part of your merge pipeline even if they're difficult to set up. Sleep quality improves once you have this in place. Your tests don't have to be brittle or flaky. If your tests are brittle it is definitely a good investment to fix whatever's causing the brittleness rather than accept it as a fact of life.
Having the tests run against an isolated data and infrastructure environment without additional noise from shared activity is a good first step.

> Also all (most) mathematics is not P=?NP level stuff.

The list of open mathematical problems is as varied as it is vast. But even going beyond that, it's clearly evident (e.g. by considering drop-out rates of technical degrees) that most people seem to be having a really hard time even with comparatively elementary mathematics.

> Especially being simplistic (unambiguous, mechanistic) is a feature for what mathematics is used for.

I'll give you "unambiguous" up to a point (there's still enough debate about which axioms are the "correct" ones, though). But "mechanistic" is plainly wrong. The set of true theorems (e.g. of ZFC) is famously undecidable, so there can be no algorithm that can capture all of mathematics.

Thankfully my Samsung forgot those ads after wiping it to factory defaults. So now it is only connected to the apple tv, and not the rest of the internet. No network at all, never, seems to be the only winning move right now.

Natural gas (which is of course composed primarily of methane) free takeaway capacity from West Texas is super low. Pipelines are booked solid and and 1-2 new ones are being commissioned yearly (google search for 'Permian natural gas pipeline projects').

Oil/gas companies generally never want to straight up vent (i.e. release directly into the atmosphere) natural gas. It gives no economic value. However, natural gas production is an inevitable byproduct of oil production, especially in the Permian basin shale plays, which can lead to either having to shut-in your oil well, or flare, or vent.

I work for an oil/gas company that operates in the Permian. Our wells range from ~3000 standard cubic feet per barrel of oil to 10000. Some of our bigger wells produce >1000 barrels of oil per day, which corresponds to 3-10 million cubic feet of natural gas per day. We do not vent unless an emergency situation arises. Even for pigging and other procedures (blow downs, etc.), we capture the natural gas. We do flare if needed, but that is limited. Small amounts of gas gather at the top of oil tanks and rather than risk an explosion (due to lightning and other unpredictable things like that), the small amount of gas is flared. The state of TX has flare limits per day and per month on both a pad and well level.

We have also electrified a very large portion of our operations, reducing the amount of natural gas burned to generate electricity (this happens all over the basin). All of our large gathering facilities but one are electric powered. This can be a challenge with gas compressors, which have traditionally been gas powered. Gas compressors are commonly in the 1500-3000 horsepower range each, and there are 4-12 per facility. That's a lot of electricity. One facility does have a gas generator powered component, which can be used to kick-start other facilities to get things going again in case of a major, multi-facility shutdown.

Long story short - gas doesn't have a ton of value in the Permian basin. In decreasing order of preference, operators will want to 1) sell gas, 2) use it to run gas compressors or generators, 3) flare it, or 4) vent it.

Some enterprising people have constructed trailers with natural gas generators powering bitcoin miners. This option can be appealing to operators who would otherwise be flaring/venting the natural gas. Not sure of the contract commercial terms but presumably it benefits both parties. Straight up burning methane is the same whether it is via flare or generator. Both are better than venting due to the increased greenhouse gas potential of methane vs CO2.
