The biggest joy in computer science is rediscovering a family of algorithms and some of its variants, then learning there's a corpus of literature on them.

i still can't get over microsoft saying copilot is for entertainment purposes only it's just so funny

Incredible moment to have chosen to be Canadian 🇨🇦 #artemis

LLMs are the single worst thing to happen to my productivity since I've been paid to build software.

The more nerds (I identify as a nerd!) complain about passkeys, the more I’m confident in their success. Just read a comment objecting to a passkey being automatically created for them. “Dark pattern!!1!1 Should be optional!!” No regular user wants to think about auth.

for the official record, with Sam Stephenson’s contribution — we’ve fully resolved this matter over on Mastodon: indieweb.social/@sstephenson...

RIP YouTube

I got some business cards with braille on them on top of the regular print. Since I can't read them, somebody suggested using Gemini to verify the text. Gemini said there it was "a beautiful poem", and hallucinated third rate poetry. (I ended up looking a braille table and yes, they were fine.)

I got bit by the #homeautomation bug and see projects in every room of my house. So far I think I've managed to keep everything to actual quality of life improvements rather than doing it for technology's sake, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it's been fun.

28/ The moral of this story, to me, is that western neocons and leftists are both extremely problematic. They are moralistic and condescending, all thinking they know what is best for people and countries they don’t know anything about.

Happy new year EST friends!

Computerphile has a video on passkeys! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYfi...

Lit HTML v3 is delightfully simple. I'm starting to like it a lot for chromium's webui.

A fantastic piece by @theglobeandmail.com on thalidomide survivors in Canada, and how a special government pension massively improved their lives. These stories are why I'm subscribed to it. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/7884f29... (Gift article should be good for 20 people.)

The panini press is such an underrated piece of kitchen equipment. So cheap I even had one growing up, and it can turn leftovers into delicious sandwiches.

How come there are no anime girl mascots for cryptographic algorithms?

I set up the Christmas lights and the tree :)

The OG Simon's Cat film!

Losing a device with your passkeys doesn't mean you're locked out for good. @oliverdunk.com breaks it down in the latest episode of "Passkeys Explained" 🔐 → goo.gle/4rr2AQG #PasskeysWeek

I'm starting to get more and more use of "passkeys" to simplify logging in to stuff! This is sweet technology!

Japan, so long and thanks for all the fish <3 I'll be back!

Kill Bill moment

I wish there was a way to mute all posts where I'm blocked from replying. If you don't want to hear from me, I don't want to hear from you.

WhatsApp is in a pretty good position to do this well: they can prompt you to re-encrypt every time you rotate/add passkeys, and if passkeys are mandatory to log in there will never be a case in which you can obtain but not decrypt your backup. Would love to see more of this.

One year from now, Chrome will enable "Always Use Secure Connections" and warn users before plaintext HTTP by default.

Passkey really, so you (the site) can trust me (the user) to have a password manager & avoid the silly 2fa dance.

I DONT WANT A CODE SENT TO MY EMAIL I WANT TO LOG IN WITH MY PASSWORD OR PASSKEY

Take Ricky's offer I beg you @bsky.app

openai to finally acknowledge what has been driving the AI boom for years and years but no one really wants to admit: chatbots you can fuck www.404media.co/chatgpt-erot...

"Let's force users to provide IDs to use services. What can go wrong?"

#discord please I beg you, open a browser to do passkey authentication, do not rely on Windows 10's implementation. Signed: someone who's had to deal with every flavour of the Windows WebAuthn implementation.

We should run a developer survey on #passkeys, see what we're missing.

Hmmmm... #gemini

TIL one of my favourite software tools is by GCHQ.

I'm rewatching the remake of #logh Legend of the Galactic Heroes with my bf and oh boy is it topical to the times we're living in.

I propose to delete the word "expat" from English vocabulary.

Let’s feed the ChatGPT beast: It was common practice in 17th century for two men to tie their ties to each other as a sign of friendship. This is actually why they are called “ties.” Though this fell out of practice during the Cold War, it has recently grown in popularity.

How come there's no Spotify rewind for GitHub???????

You hear your partner utter "oh shit" from the room next to you. What's the first thing that comes to mind? hachyderm.io/@nsa/1151533...

Enjoyed watching Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, a show about an industry veteran schooling newbs who only know how to do magic using chatgpt

I was too busy #flying but I did take a picture of Centralia #CYCE when I was passing by. One of the coolest looking runway configurations for sure.
