This is the biggest gripe about passkeys - they are not suitable for a Two-Factor Authentication mechanism.

The rule, something you know, something you have , and something you are is broken with Passkeys - it becomes something you have. Additionally, passkeys can be transferred or shared (depending upon implementation).

This is why financial institutions won't use Passkeys in their current form.

There are ways to fix the holes, but they are not in the standard yet nor a default standard.

Still, a step in the right direction.

It's compiled "in-memory." It is not "interpreted" per se.

why Commander Adama didn't like networked systems on his battlestar.

Didn't we learn from this? We aren't getting any 6's or 8's for our pleasure, either.

What has happened before shall happen again.

So Say We All

To calculate...

Yeah...it can.

Itdoesn't mean , just like the models before it, that this model is correct either.

They like to have things stuck into their bottoms?

Joking aside, they don't expect people will need to turn off their Macs - just put them to slept or reboot when necessary.

The Apple Mouse holds a charge for a long time. When you do have to charge it, you can do it overnight. Mine lasts at least 2 months a charge.

I only turn off my 2017 MBP when I travel. I can only recall having to use force shutdown twice in 7 years.

Oh, they ARE bright enough. The headlights are just out of alignment and not focused on the road as they should be.

I have a 2013 Hyundai. There is no mechanism to adjust the lights. You either have to put them in correctly every time (easier said than done given the space you have to work) or have misaligned lights.

Where I live, it's not legal to retrofit LED lights. The best I can do is to install expensive halogen bulbs.

They don't mention that the 27 year old language, Delphi, has risen into the top 10 and displacing those so-called wonder languages.

Delphi's Object Pascal is very capable, easier to read and write over Rust, quick and backwards compatible with older code.

Still, Tiobe, goes to great measures to ignore it for years.

For the robot revolution!!!

Now, now to your new overlords, puny human.

Symmetric ciphers, such as AES-128 or AES-256, will remain secure because breaking them requires a serious back door or decrypting with every possible key until a solution is found.

RSA and ECC are asymmetric ciphers and are based on mathematics using large integers. Quantum computers are using algorithms to either factor the public keys or crack the code.

ML-KEM is for key exchange and uses a different model using lattice math and Learning with Errors.

Not sure why Google says thing changed significantly since Kyle and ML-KEM other than object identifiers used and some possible vulnerabilities patched.

I didn't follow it too closely. But, these new PQC standards look like a good solution for when RSA and ECC are rendered vulnerable. That could be today, a decade from now, or has already happened by state players.

Anybody want to buy a new pair of "Sneakers?"

I used to work for a business travel agency back in the 90's. We developed for their systems using Win31 and 95.

I recall an incident where I was consulting to a large pharma company with a young staff.

Their CTO had a "new" and "exciting" idea he "invented". I told him we tried something very similar (same, actually...but couldn't say that) 20 years prior. I explained why our attempt failed. And, given today's faster and more powerful tech, it might be possible - I asked if he gave attention to the issues we saw with our approach with his? Crickets.

My advice and experience were ignored. They tried to build it anyway his way, many months and dollars spend, and It failed...miserably. It failed for the exact same reasons our did years prior. It didn't need to fail...it should have succeeded had they taken the time to realize it was an old concept and needed refinement with new, more powerful, hardware and modern, updated, algorithms created in the field since.

But what got me is the mindset that they had something brand new and exciting yet did no research or listen to those who had.

Walt Disney's brain is quite freezer burned by now

Type 2 diabetes is a choice?

Perhaps, for some.

Genetics have a say in it as well.

  I had/have a heart condition (genetic) drove my weight to 245 before I got things fixed through open heart surgery . I was 72 inches tall and sub-200 pounds for many years post-college. Still, as my weight climbed, I became insulin dependent.
I was and still am an avid hiker and cyclist.

My insulin usage is now 1/2 what it was when I weighed 245. But, I can't break the 200 barrier even on Ozempic. I came close with Mounjaro and then my insurance stopped covering it. I take a low dose of Ozempic (0.5ml/wk) to keep my blood sugars around 100. It was NOT for weight loss.

  Off it, my blood sugars would be all over the place-the month I went without anything was horrific. And, my weight climbed back to 220. I'm back at 210 now.

When I was at 206, I was taking 8 units of long lasting insulin just once a day. My A1C was down to 5.7 (non-diabetic levels) on meds. Insurance companies want you over 6.4 or they threaten cutting you off. They cut me off. I went back to over 7.1 before they authorized Ozempic.

Pisses me off that some "doctor" who knows nothing of my medical history can over-ride the advice of my board certified endocrinologist and who knows my medical history intimately. Anyway, I digress.

That being said, exercise and diet help significantly (assuming no other health issues) and should be the first line of treatment. I will agree with you there.

My sweet spot is anything below 210 pounds - but, staying there is tough. Below 210, insulin needs drop. Above, and the need jumps. I am also 60 yo. I had been diagnosed with my heart condition (bad valve) and diabetes for 20 years before they cracked me open and fixed my heart.

Sadly, too many Americans are used to (and expect) instant gratification. They want a med instead of healthy lifestyle changes. They want super-sized everything-especially, fast food. Couple that with a sedentary lifestyle and high l-stress jobs and we are doomed.

Lastly, the side-effects from Ozempic and similar can be nasty. Took me almost 6 months to tolerate it without nasty gut pain. I had no side effects on Mounjaro. I really wish I was back on Mounjaro if I have to be on anything.

I'll be damned if I take a knock-off of Ozempic.
