Sure, some Linux distros (or is it MacOS?) ask for confirmation before executing `rm -rf /`, which breaks the typical UX of the command but prevents bad mistakes.

The Technical Summary uses "visual derivative" without clarification, but their Threat Model PDF clarifies it further as thumbnails: >The decrypted vouchers allow Apple servers to …

Fascinating, thanks for clarifying.

Of course, but it's a kind of last resort thing to support a valid legal process they cannot (and probably don't want to) skirt around. They also publish data on warrant requests. …

Yes I agree, bit of a stretch. Based on their whitepaper, it's a smaller version of the original image, I guess just large enough to support the human verification step. But I'm un…

Presumably, it’s done this way so they can say computers other than your personal device do not scan photos and “look” at decrypted and potentially innocent photos. And technically…

I think it’s context dependent, just like other uses of the word steal. With copyright infringement, internet communities have come to agreement that it is not stealing, so avoidin…

What word do you use when someone unrightfully gains possession of something that isn’t theirs? Btw a lot of words in English have multiple meanings, and transform meaning over tim…

2023 Q1: each TLD you make web requests to will need individual human moderated entitlements.

Wait, even to develop/test on your own device, without releasing, you need to fill out the form?

Science supports that the sun really damages your skin, so you should absolutely use a sunscreen or SPF 30 moisturizer every morning. Digging deeper into types of ingredients that …

>“ant colony” -> ”underground creepy crawly settlement” Wow, and it passed peer review.

> Apple has always been able to scan iCloud and send your data to police I don’t see how the article you linked to explains how Apple can “scan iCloud” for the police. What do you …

I’d be curious to hear you elaborate on the singular/many things point. Trying to understand which deficiency you are pointing out.

Flow paradigm doesn’t claim scale though. It’s about being a DSL for specific environments, often visually-oriented software like CAD or interactive art, which doesn’t have heavy 1…

> Data generated by a node "flows" to the other nodes it is connected to and when any node has data on all it's inputs, it executes and produces data which flows to whatever nodes …

Side note: interactive debugging is kinda inherent with the flow based programming paradigm. The program is continuously executing with every new action and immediately reflecting …

> But why did we bring it forward in the first place? Speculation: visual programming is a bit more beginner friendly, and more compatible with the brains of people designing stuff…

I would change your question from “does it have any real benefits” to “does it have a practical effect on the model” Benefits to me are clear: giving a developer choice over how th…

My preferred combo: QR code at the table for menu browsing. Order with a human. Then QR code on the bill to (optionally) pay on your phone, ideally with Apple Pay. But you have the…
