    In a typical office environment, the correct response to “I don’t have access to this Google Doc” is to ask for access from the person who sent you the link. In another context, it…

    That's a really good question. This may also end up depending on the level of trust within the team. One thing I didn't call out is that an "optional gate" can still just be checke…

    There is only zero incentive if the filter detects AI music reliably. It's still a race between effective detection and cost to generate content, isn't it?

    What a strange take. LLMs produce plausibly correct output, which is exactly where plain JavaScript and DOM manipulation will result in a spaghetti mess. Frameworks like React that…

    I disagree. Especially with AI, it’s far too easy to generate and insert an image with no time, energy, or eye for detail. Authors do it because it supposedly leads to better engag…

    Thanks! I have been learning about FedCM recently, but I need to read more. My understanding is that it requires the relying party to allowlist which IdPs it trusts, is that correc…

    That’s real, yeah. I also remember a couple concerns around that privacy as well. One being that if your IdP controls your email, they could probably figure out what sites your com…

    That’s how this project started, with trying to take the Persona repo and bringing it up to date. There were two challenges… first, don’t underestimate how hard it is to take a dec…

    I’ve tried it in the past. This was a few years ago, so it’s possible it’s changed since then. But the reason I’m not choosing it for myself today is that it relies on either Sign …

    The biggest one I’ve come across is the ability to manage and revoke sessions from a centralized location. With BrowserID, you can’t just sign out of your IdP and expect all relyin…

    And yet the data shows that they did decline. I'm sure they could be much better, and the response will vary from state to state.

    The data ownership is really interesting, as many threads here are going into. I wonder if it's possible to sidestep that entirely, though! Under the CCPA, "personal information" i…

    Is there a technical limitation why these never seem to be grouped into a thread? I generally appreciate the updates on my package, but I also value a tidy inbox.

    These are all risks. Not all risks need to be mitigated, but some can be. Others can be accepted. Saying “Python is too slow for production scale, but our goal is a small proof of …

    I mean, that LLM idea _sounds_ ridiculous, but similar ideas have worked really well in machine learning for games like Chess and AI.

    It was some attempt at reductio ad absurdum. If you are concerned about letting Alexa into your home, you must be as irrational as Chris Hemsworth. Edit: I'm misusing reductio ad a…

    It’s also possible that I start my next task without remembering to create a new diff first. That might explain the conflict when the original commit becomes immutable?

    I build a few diffs off of my local main, create and push a bookmark, and then create a PR back to main from that bookmark.
