This camera's attestation and zero-knowledge proof cannot verify that a photo is not AI generated. Worse, those "verifications" may trick people into believing photos are trustworthy or authentic that are not. Similar to ad-c

Patients and providers should have the ability to shop and negotiate price directly with each other. No 3rd party will ever be in a better position to negotiate individualized care and prices for 350,000,000 people better than we (or our

I've found that as LLMs improve, some of their bugs become increasingly slippery - I think of it as the uncanny valley of code. Put another way, when I cause bugs, they are often glaring (more typos, fewer logic mistakes). Plus, as the

Firefox should make it clear that Firefox (browser) will not collect, transmit, nor sell user data beyond what is technically required for interaction between the browser and other computers over networks. Anything less and people stop usin

Building a service on top of the OSS, where some people prefer to self-host, but many don't want to self host. Ex. Bitwarden, Infisical, Docker, etc.

I agree, better to use an additional factor than fingerprinting.

Yes, adding max-use counts and expiration dates to links can mitigate against some browser-history snooping. However, if your browser history is compromised you probably have an even bigger problem...

Correct, DNS only queries the hostname portion of the URL. Maybe my attempt to be thorough – by making note of DNS along side HTTP since it's part of the browser ↔ network ↔ server request diagram – was too thorough.

Good to point out. This distinction is especially important to keep in mind when thinking about when and/or who terminates TLS/SSL for your service, and any relevant threat models the service might have for the portion of the HTTP

To somewhat mitigate the link-loading bot issue, the link can land on a "confirm sign in" page with a button the user must click to trigger the POST request that completes authentication. Another way to mitigate this issue is t

To create private shareable links, store the private part in the hash of the URL. The hash is not transmitted in DNS queries or HTTP requests. Ex. When links.com?token=<secret> is visited, that link will be transmitted and potentially

The syntax of your language is quite nice. I’d maybe change (for …) to (each …), (fun …) to (fn …), and (let …) to (def …) or (set …) depending on implementation details of variable assignment, but those are just aesthetic preferences :) I

The list-style properties should be called marker-style, and list-item renamed > to marked-block or something. I think list and list-item are clear. How about just `mark` instead of `marker-style` to be consistent with other prop

Yes, using a watch + compile + restart development environment where everything can be worked on locally reduces cycle time to 5ms, which is ~100,000x quicker than the 10m compile time in the parent post. I've deployed 35,000+ lines of

• Ngrok only provides tunnels. • Ngrok pulled a pricing bait-and-switch a year ago increasing prices to $240/year/user if you wanted a stable subdomain, even for bandwidth-trivial users. - Edit: Looks like they now have an $8&#x2

Money now is more valuable than money later. As someone who has both built and sold software, it's simply to be able to sell software before it's complete. Without estimates, you can't sell something that doesn't exist y

Why mix regulation of two effects (sound and emissions)? It's smarter to write regulation for each uniquely and directly. Eg. - Sound from air traffic shall meet <sound regulations> and when violated will incur automatic fees of
