    Sure, not giving out the secrets to userspace was the design goal of security keys and later TPM+Secure enclave. Passkeys happen to enable the use of such hardware for authenticati…

    Bionic is an agent; this appears to be an open-source competitor to lmstudio. The initial commit is just a few hours ago though, so …

    Seems Chrome-only for now. But the spec (Working draft) has an editor from Mozilla as well, so maybe someday... https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-extensions/#the-usermedia...

    Don't let the hype turn you into a cynic. You're replying to a Rust core team member, who explicitly says the issues are mostly minor, across Rust ecosystem and not in Rust itself,…

    This is what an Apple engineer could write in the electron's github issue if they refused to fix it. We're not discussing that, but that they have pushed an update without proper t…
