It could be done in a way that Apple does not know the key and is technologically unable to comply. But for such a low stakes system they would obviously never go through the trouble as it would cause more user friction than it's worth.

(You could have a privacy email be created as a totally unique auth key that's just stored offline on a User's apple computers and synced via an encrypted storage system).

Of course Apple could still associate source IPs for logins between multiple accounts.

that yummy koolaid

I feel like a good idea for this sort of thing if it's going to be deployed is include the applicant in the loop.

"Hi, your application will be rejected because:
* You list your qualifications as an electrician, not a medical expert.

If this anything is in error and you want to continue with your submission, please explain the error below and click "Contest" attesting that you believe this to be in error and someone will be sure to review more carefully."

Even without AI it would be nice for job application forms to let applications know that they're just going to get tossed automatically regardless of the automated system. In fact it should be against the law to discard applications automatically without allowing an application to review the criteria by which they were automatically rejected regardless of it being algorithmic or fuzzy AI.

Yeah, as noted above .. people read stuff like this like it's his money. It'd be nice if they taught how screwed up this level of wealth disparity is in schools.

At his wealth, you can put tons of others people's money where ever you damn well want, for any reason, just because you have a hunch (or for vested other interests)

You dummies buy the sockpuppets hook line and sinker.

Reading is difficult.

Well, there's also the issue of having a "throat to choke." A large part of using SaaS is that when it doesn't work, it's somebody else's problem to solve.

What a load of contorted nonsense.

What is "OpenSource" anyway? Is that a word?

Couldn't you just build some massive Silicon Carbide rods and heat the air for load shedding for much less money than the cost of batteries?

I mean, what would it be?

"that only a sufficiently educated and credentialled person could possibly overlook."

that's a funny self-own if I've ever read one

Wow man, so you're like saying .. there's some kind of ... cost/benefit analysis that can be done? Whoa dude. You should write some kind of like, business book, or something.

why don't you take the 2 seconds it would take to find out

There was one called Inside UFO 54-40 that had an ending you couldn't navigate to. You had to "cheat" to find it, by just reading a section of the book that you had no way to reach. I thought that was pretty clever.

Similarly, Infocom had a text adventure game called The Lurking Horror that needed you to enter a computer password at some point to continue with the game. The password was only provided in the physical materials included with the purchased copy of the game. But if you knew how to hack into the game binaries, the password was actually there -- multiple times -- in plaintext. That had to be intentional.
