I think it’s a little different. The restaurant fee isn’t a fee for something “extra”, it’s just a blanket extra charge on everything. It’d be like the airline sold you a ticket fo…

Restaurant owners interviewed in the media here in SF are directly quoted saying they can’t do that because “customers would notice”, or think “oh that’s expensive, I can’t eat out…

Scorched Earth was also my first hacking target. Found out that your cash balance and weapons inventory was all stored in a mysterious .ini file and you could just edit it.

Best "friendmaker" hobby I know is sailing. It's in general a very newcomer friendly hobby, which is both important as a newcomer yourself as well as for meeting new people once yo…

It's more like workers on a large oil tanker using bicycles to move around it, rather than trying to use another oil tanker.

> why they're attributed to AI? I don’t think they mean scrapers necessarily driven by LLMs, but scrapers collecting data to train LLMs.

We did not, no. Just wrote up the report and moved on.

Back in college (~2008) we implemented this with a 7 foot tall back-projected screen and a couple of Wii remotes after seeing Johnny Lee’s video. The nice thing with that screen wa…

It is not based on TB but it is heavily informed by those efforts. See here: https://github.com/w3c/webappsec-dbsc#what-makes-device-boun... However, DBSC as an API and protocol is…

Services can certainly make this safer by providing means to get more restricted credentials, so that users can deputize semi-trusted delegates, such as agents vulnerable to inject…

It’s the same thing: https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys/

This is a very good point, and one the DBSC team thinks about a lot. In the short term it's about economics: Infostealer malware today scales really well because it can a) exfiltra…

There are many sailing schools around SF, but one that stands out is https://www.cal-sailing.org/ - as it's by far the least expensive and low-commitment option to get on the water…

There was a pretty good video on this a couple of years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFv3QPNU6hw

Garfield is certainly (meant to be) real, but I've never seen a strip that confirms that Jon can actually hear Garfield's thoughts. I think that's why Garfield minus Garfield works…

It’s not induction. It’s just the contrapositive of “if you can solve the simpler problem then you can solve the harder problem”

You used to be required to adopt an Icelandic forename - not surname. You still kept your original name (if you wanted) and it was up to you which one you used on practice. But as …

Is that really price discrimination? “Enthusiasts” might have legitimate reasons for preferring hardcover (durability, aesthetics, etc) and are willingly and knowingly paying extra…

“They” in this case included me and this was a deliberate fix for poor UX many years ago. We definitely thought about it and we used to blink only the key that had a credential fro…

I have the same fantasy. I think it’s appealing because I imagine they’d be able to appreciate all the amazing things behind it more than most people, dead or alive.

Stained glass won’t (I think) shift any frequencies. It will attenuate different frequencies differently, but it won’t make up new ones. So when the signal frequency changes, you’l…
