Paypal, as far as I can tell, doesn't even (intentionally) support passkeys. They refer to all WebAuthN credentials as "security keys" and remind me to "plug it in and touch it now" etc.

I'm honestly already glad that they didn't make their annoying browser fingerprinting rigorous enough to also block authentications and aren't requiring attestation.
Yes, consciousness requires some embedding in time (duration). It requires a capacity of recursion. Hofstadter’s stance loop is a temporal process.

There is no atemporal “frozen” state we can call consciousness. It is dynamic.

That is what bothers me about the Chalmer’s piece. There are not three states of a thermostat’s “What’s it like”. He is showboating his writting chops and parroting Nagel’s dualism.
More importantly, about half the price per item.
There are a lot of drug store locations though that don’t have pharmacists and others where the pharmacists work limited hours compared to the rest of the store.
Do you still enter carbs, or do you just announce meals? I know some people with closed loops just do the latter. If you don't mind sharing, what's your time in range?

I have the Omnipod 5 which is decent, but it's "closed loop" abilities are extremely conservative and a bit disappointing. I've considered going the full way with androidaps, but haven't taken the leap yet.

This is also why the pharmacy counter is at the back of the store. They are praying that in your journey back there you find that you needed some cosmetic, a quart of half-and-half, can of Pringles, etc.

He is 13 and he wears a Tandem X2 w/Dexcom G6 (soon to be G7?). It certainly makes life easier, but like you said there's constant mental overhead. We have SugarPixels all over the house, etc. His pump beeps at him so often he's just become accustomed to it and ignores it until he starts feeling bad (typically when he's going low). But that also means that it limits his ability to do things, he's got only a handful of friends that we trust leaving him alone at their home because their parents are willing to keep checking on him, etc.

So you maintain a table of domains and how to access them?

How do you build that table and keep it up to date? Manually?
This would be possible via attestation, but both Apple and Google removed that feature when they replaced their respective device-bound authenticator implementations with cloud-synchronizing ones. (Google technically still allows creating device-bound ones and supports attestation in that case, but that's arguably a niche use case and not what people are talking about when they say "passkeys".)
> What's your proposal on what a better UX might look like (along with getting everyone to adopt it)?

The current passkey implementation is: Your google/apple/microsoft cloud account lets you log into websites without a password, using a 'keyring' of 'passkeys'

But we already had countless websites with a "log in with google" button, for users who want to authenticate using their cloud account, and skip entering a password.

So they could have just kept that... exactly how it was?
I am lucky to have a family owned drug store near my house. The pharmacists are brother and sister and grandma runs the cash register. Grandma can't walk good or see good, but she sure can sell you some cookies or pens or sunscreen or German sausages. She makes sure you don't leave empty handed.

So much faster then going to CVS, you just give them the scrip, they put the pills in the bottle, done in 5 min. Pay cash, no insurance BS. No ID since they know all their customers. Somehow they always have what you need, even when there is a shortage of a particular medicine.

Sometimes grandma tries to give me free stuff when she rings me up and I am like, no dammit, I need you to say in business or else I am doomed deal with the megacorps again. Take my money please!
Yup, for example: I'd love to see what a good writing of a Bond played by Idris Elba would look like. The only requirement is good writing which seems to not be incentivised much in this world of lame data-driven corporations dictating taste.
Should we target the lowest common denominator?

If anything, this achieves the opposite of making sure I always have mine on me.

Dedicated, external hardware authenticators are great for logging in to very high value accounts or password managers, but arguably they're not really viable for 99% of users and use cases on a day-to-day basis.
It depends on the complexity of your campaign. Back in the day when I played D&D, we had a DM who would throw together typical hack-and-slash-and-loot campaigns, in which you wanted to maximize your STR, CON, DEX, and INT( if you were a magic-using class ). Nobody wanted to assign points to anything else, as they would be a waste.

It takes a good DM to balance a campaign, especially for years. And I suspect most DMs are pretty bad (I'm guessing, haven't played in over a decade now).
An inevitability, unfortunately.

If possible, please include:

- type of company (startup, remote-first, etc)

- tech stack or roles (frontend, backend, full-stack, data science, etc)

I'm not sure how you read the above list and got the impression that meta wanted "total access like this to the phones, networks and data of every phone in the US". "Connectivity to all of a user’s Apple devices" probably means mDNS access for device discovery, rather than root access on all devices or whatever. Same for "Wi-Fi networks and properties". They probably want a list of wifi networks so they can connect to them, rather than low level access so they can run packet captures or whatever. Yes, even the limited access described above presents privacy issues, but there's no need to be hyperbolic and characterize it as "total access".
Aside from the hype and grift, I fail to see the connection between AI and blockchain. I understand the value proposition of both technologies and appreciate them within their own contexts. However as a combination, all I see is short term hype driving speculative cryptocurrency valuations.

There's another group using a "user owned AI" scheme to promote their own L1. Nothing about it makes sense. They're not instructing users to run their own models. They don't even offer a model. Just vague hand waving and buzzword salad.

It can be surprising to learn what civilisations accomplished before inventing a writing system for their language. I was amazed when I found out that Japanese didn't have a writing system until the 4th century AD despite 600+ years of agricultural empires and Shintoism. And even then, their writing system was just adapting Chinese characters nobles had to learn so they could deal with mainland Asians. They used the symbols that either meant the same thing as their words or sounded similar.

(I'm probably getting some of that wrong or not clarifying enough, and am eager to learn from those who'd correct me.)

To be more precise: It is not so much a (dose) threshold but how much margin/reserves your body still has.

For example kidney injury is progressive, and by the time the kidney's functional reserve is exhausted, things will remain bad until death or kidney transplant.

Also for diseases like HIV/AIDS, the cognitive reserve influences how long it takes until HIV associated dementia sets in.

As is the explanation all too often, dress codes are simply exclusionary. They're meant to exclude those that do not conform (whether or why they cannot conform or refuse to is secondary).

All the other bluster about tradition and standards or whatever else is all just covering fire to exclusionary policy. Whether that be race based, gender based, class based or otherwise, it's a basis for excluding or removing those outside your group who can't or won't bend to your requirements.

The one and only exception I know of to this is safety dress codes, like loose long hair or garments around certain machinery that could catch those. The rest can go to hell.

Why does it matter whether you're consistently going south or not? Even if you're not in Antarctica because the Forces-That-Be fooled you somehow, you're still somewhere on Earth with a 24-hour sun.
Why is it defaulting to passkey if i want to use a security key... probably because 99% of people will be using the builting apple passkey and not a third party hardware device that few have... hence why the hardware device is considered "other"

I’ve been following this over the years and while I’m a bit tired of it to address your other points directly, let me at the very least say that while he’s clearly very emotional and not always reacting in the most productive way, there’s typically a somewhat sensible reason behind it. He’s not a complete crybaby. He clearly cares a lot about the game, and he’s met a lot of unnecessary resistance.

But yea, he’s been acting far from perfect the last few years.

One of the emails had a phone number for the intended recipient, so I called. It was an old person who was definitely confused.

I can easily imagine there are a bunch of older people who do not have email addresses, yet just about everything requires an email address, even if it's not necessary for whatever service, so people have to either make up an address, or incorrectly remember what the address was that their children or grandchildren set up for them.

Either way, that doesn't excuse the companies that spam innocent people.

> passkeys were a great idea until cloud vendors waged war on hardware keys.

> The concept of a passkey as desired by Yubico was that every user buys a set of hardware keys, uses those instead of passwords, and has no ability to authenticate otherwise.

This was never a great idea, it was totally unworkable for nearly everyone. Physical keys work because locksmiths exist, keys can be copied, and users get to choose when they lock the door/box/whatever. And even with those benefits they're rapidly being replaced for a lot of people with PIN codes or mobile apps precisely because physical keys are suboptimal.

Hardware keys as envisioned here cannot be copied without registering the copy separately with each and every service, have no equivalent of locksmiths besides "store these 10 recovery codes somewhere safe" (also unworkable as a solution), and between session timeouts and multiple devices users are regularly unable to predict when and where they will need to create a new session.

Hardware keys were designed for a spherical humanity, not for the humanity that has to deal with ADHD, dementia, babies, kids, fires, floods, and a host of other failure modes. OS keys inherit many but not all of the flaws of hardware keys, but at least they don't rely on a human being responsible!
Coffee Gives Rosacea Researchers a Latte Think About (2023)
> I'd only note that the EU is not a monolith, local regulations and tax laws can differ wildly

It's not really justified to express anti-EU sentiment on the grounds of local laws which have little to do with the EU though...

Anyway, most US states have no unicorns and low levels of VC investment, despite zero exposure to EU rules and similar regulatory climates to California which receives more VC funding than the rest of them put together. For all Germany's famously pernickety regulation, Bavaria saw more VC investment than numerous larger US states last year and "you'd have to be a masochist to start a business here" Norway is in the top 10 countries worldwide for VC funding per capita which suggests that at least the masochists get funding! Frankly, it's unrealistic to expect any European country to be remotely like California in the near future for a whole host of structural reasons that have nothing to do with the EU or local regulations, and if the actual tradeoff is more like the labour laws of Michigan for the VC investment levels approaching that of Michigan it's not clear there's any win for Europe in deregulating.
> Trying to outsource those decisions to corporations and government simply isn't working

> try between the alloc/free

The idiomatic way to handle that is with some combination of `defer` and `errdefer`. Then, in code, there are no lines between alloc/free, and if a try would exit before the free then you would instead first free anyway.

> drop semantic is better in that regard

The drop trait has its warts too. Zig's version sets up a point in time where the given cleanup code _will_ run (ignoring power outages and the like), and Rust's sets up a point in time where the given cleanup code is _allowed_ to run. It solves UAF, but it makes performance harder to reason about and makes leaks easier to write (a common theme in my complaints about Rust -- it's mostly a nice language, but many of the design choices slightly encourage leaky code, so most projects of any size and complexity have leaks). Having drops be that easy to write also encourages programmers to think in terms of small units of data rather than collections and common lifetimes, typically resulting in increased execution times.

There’s this weird glitch in our collective psyche where an arbitrarily bloated and rapacious central committee fixing prices and wages and regulations in favor of an insular elite is somehow still called “capitalism” as long as the party insiders are called things like “CEO” or “venture capitalist”.

It’s late USSR economics with feel good nomenclature.

With e.g. Elon Musk getting heavily involved in government in sort of a vague way we’re stepping into some new stage of this. We must slash entitlements to fund corporate tax cuts comrade.

Apparently we’re kind of over it on even pretending a tiny corporate elite doesn’t just directly set policy in flagrant, naked, unapologetic self-interest.

Capitalism sounds dope: I hope I live to see it.

The bar for wide-audience podcasters and interviewers is low. They're expected to be generalists who can ask good questions, not experts driving the conversation.

Now, expertise is valuable for focused Podcasters like Peter Attia for fitness or Razib for population genomics. But, Dwarkesh is trying to cover all tech and wider HN-friendly content. For that purpose, his CS education and knowledge of the tech industry workings are solid.

He does a better job than Lex, Rogan, or other tech-adjacent Podcasters. Nowhere near as personable as some of the more mainstream successes. But, when those podcasters get tech guests, we're stuck with tired questions like:"Will AI kill us all?".
Here's the thing, take a look at just a bit of what Meta is demanding:

*AirPlay Continuity Camera

*App Intents

*Devices connected with Bluetooth

*Apple Notification Center Service

*iPhone Mirroring

*CarPlay

*Connectivity to all of a user’s Apple devices

*Messaging

*Wi-Fi networks and properties

Now ignoring the obvious societal dangers in this request. (I mean really? Should you be using a Meta headset while you're driving?) The scope of data that they are asking for is breathtaking. All the data, wifi, messages and notifications of not only every iphone in the US, but all of the user's other devices as well. To potentially include their cars.

We need to really think deeply about how we set up access to Apple data and APIs. Requests like this are putting me more in the "deny all requests" camp. If tech companies can't be at least a little more reasonable, then I don't think they should have access to our data.
Again you've gone straight back to zero sum thinking. There's no reason Alphabet keeping Mr Beast happy has to be bad for you! It might be good for you! It might be - in fact it almost certainly is true - that the changes that Mr Beast gets youtube to make might be good for everyone.

The network effects of the platform are massive. 90% of that surplus can go to Alphabet and it still be a good deal for average creators. Mr Beast, you, me anyone can go and rent a server tomorrow and start serving their own videos. People still choose to go to youtube because there's just so much surplus value there.
