Cheating (at least when I was school age) was fairly rare and not terribly difficult to detect. My concern is that both of those might be false with LLMs, and that'd make the circu…

I agree. That's what I expect. My optimistic hope is that for the more basic skills, teachers can adjust grading so that more easily-cheated homework provides less credit, and in-p…

That seems to be a common theme in the responses to me here. The teachers set the course material and grading standards at least partially on how well the students are performing. …

My daughter is only 1 and a half years old now, but my concern is more that she'll be implicitly competing with classmates that are using tools like this, whether we allow her to u…

Locking semantics? Consistent listing of large numbers of files? I'm speculating but those are at least the two I can think of that aren't explicitly linked to speed equivalency of…

I tried out YNAB, Rocket Money, and Quicken Simplifi. YNAB was a bit too opinionated and "hands on" for my tastes. Rocket Money seemed to be geared toward the "we'll cancel subscri…

Lambda has provisioned capacity now. You can just tell it how many to keep warm and it'll keep that many warm (but still cold start additionally as necessary).

This is exactly how we see it at my company. Likewise, Linux is also a confusing mess of different parts and nonsensical abstractions when you first approach it. It does take some …

It's confusing, but Docker images (and image registries) are also an open standard that Docker implements [1]. A lot of the Kubernetes "cool kids" just run containerd instead of Do…

Does it do U2F on an iOS device?

If you haven't learned Kubernetes yet, it's probably a good use case for that. Then use any of the other ideas here, except deploy them through Kubernetes.

My apologies if that's how it came across. My intention was to support the parent comment's assertion by pointing to a live example supporting his claim. Honestly we already discus…

Yes, and we are already seeing it. The "Home" app on macOS right now is clearly reusing a lot of iOS UI elements. It works, although it's tough to imagine a more native Mac app wou…

Sure--I've no doubt there's some ugly workaround process to get around it, but I felt compelled to offer more information because it is usually the case that any Mac App Store app …

I'm an iOS/Mac dev that's released a VPN app on both app stores. The limiting factor is that the "Network Extension" framework is the way these apps work as VPNs, and currently Mac…

It can also be helpful if: - your system is distributed - you don't want to be keeping a decryption key secure and in-sync across many (and potentially less-trusted) nodes - the JW…

I've been using U2F where possible for about a year, and I have a secondary Yubikey registered everywhere I have the primary registered. I am going to be switching to a USB-C one s…

The climate system has fewer moving parts than a typical climate control system, so if anything, it is removing failure cases. It is unique—there are videos on YouTube that describ…

The car doesn't require touching the screen to operate it. The nav / media controls do, but those can be voice operated, too. And a lot of the media controls work from the steering…

My prior car was new and I later decided that the added expense of a new car did not justify it. My plan was to get a few-years old "A to B" used car (like a Corolla or something) …

Thanks for posting. This is a serious issue that is difficult to discuss openly and your perspective (particularly the part about a poor woman from a bad neighborhood's changing ex…

Sometimes. Apple certainly pushed back against Uber when they were skirting the rules a few years ago.

I'm not sure if it supports U2F. If it does, I haven't used it. It just seems to prove that what you were conceptually describing can exist, and at a not-completely-unreasonable pr…

I have a Ledger Nano S that I use for cryptocurrency and it does basically this. It won't sign transactions unless you approve them from the device, and the little screen on the de…

OK. I guess to me categorizing those things in the same bucket as EC2 or Salesforce is missing a pretty fundamental architectural difference and benefit. I'm not claiming "serverle…
