People can still attack such a system..
Photo IDs can and have been forged, or can just be stolen and reused if someone looks similar enough - an exact match is impossible because you need to factor in age, lighting, appearance changes like a lack of shaving etc.
The account numbers can easily be discovered, and lists of them often leak.
A signature is totally worthless as a form of authentication, there are plenty of places you could copy it from or you can just do something random and noone will check it anyway.

The biggest security aspect of the traditional cashier withdrawal system was familiarity - people regularly visited their local bank and knew the staff.

Precisely this, people vote against whoever seems to be the worst at the time, doesn't mean they support the opposition policies just that they consider them the lesser of two evils.
It's the democrats pushing things too far which caused people to vote for trump in the first place.

Hosting your own web server at home has become a problem because ISPs and other orgs have not gotten off their asses to upgrade to IPv6. Instead lots of places are stuck with CGNAT and other kludges to keep the experimental legacy IPv4 limping along so you simply can't host as you don't have a proper connection. They don't need to explicitly block anything, you just don't have the ability to self host anything at all.

Plus going back the other way the prevalence of CGNAT and resale of legacy IPv4 space makes it extremely difficult to block malicious traffic without cutting off real users too.

Closer to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy tradition. All they need are the words "Don't Panic" on the front cover.

If it doesn't, it has no real value.

Almost nothing on Wikipedia is true, but all of it is "verifiable" in that there's at least one published source making the claim. Even if 99.9% of all other sources say the opposite.

(The Haka is not, for example, a war chant. Which is attested to, but because it's claimed to be online, it is "verifiable".)

The number of errors is huge, the number of "official editors" who know anything about the subject is extremely small, and this has always been the case. This is why nobody reputable cites Wikipedia. Wikipedia is where you go to find out what is potentially interesting, but you ALWAYS obtain the facts from elsewhere, if you've any sense.

Farewell, mon capitaine. See you out there.

Millions of users don't have proper connectivity, they are stuck behind CGNAT and cannot self host or p2p. They are dependent on those walled gardens hosted by someone else.

The continued use of legacy IPv4 and slow rollout of IPv6 breaks that notion completely. Now you have a two tier system of users with full connectivity, and many millions of second tier users with partial connectivity stuck behind CGNAT.

These second tier users can't self host, can't p2p, and become dependent on additional third parties for things that first-tier users take for granted. Many of these third parties are abusive in various ways.

Back in the day you could host a low bandwidth chat server such as IRC, and high bandwidth activities like file sharing or video calls were direct p2p. Now many users cannot p2p so you need a high bandwidth and low latency server to relay all of that traffic. Only a few large players have the resources to do this.

Because there are so many second-tier users now this abusive system has become the norm, and many users aren't even aware of other options.

Your best engineers will be AuDHD, and AuDHD folk don't do well in these sorts of synthetic tests.

I can code in 20+ languages for over 12 different OS', write code that's good enough for CERN to run for particle accelerator data collection for a decade, have accelerated systems by an order of magnitude by understanding the poem space better than their previous engineers, but I am abysmal at exam style settings.

The software industry is riddled with SEs who write abysmal code but can pass a coding test easily. They're the folk that you have always needed to reject but didn't because they ticked a box.

Sure there has been ARM64 windows for 5+ years, but it generally has poor reviews - compatibility issues (x64 emulation is only in userland so drivers won't work unless there's a native version), poor performance (mostly caused by emulation) etc.

Linux applications already natively support ARM64, and it runs the same kernel with the same drivers so most of these problems don't exist.

Apple are also in a much better place as they can mandate ARM64 as the only way forward. For Apple developers porting to ARM64 is a hard requirement unless you want to abandon your software, whereas for Windows developers porting to ARM64 is a cost with very little benefit. That's why virtually all mac software is now native ARM64, whereas for Windows it's a very small percentage.

But it's the same with any new technology, the incumbents hate it and either ignore it and hope it goes away, or try to push back against it, stifling progress. Usually this is a kneejerk response from people who are afraid of change and don't even understand the new tech.

Sensible people evaluate the new technology properly and determine how to make the best use of it, while understanding what weaknesses it might have and when its use might not always be the best option.

Anyone who dismisses a new technology without having properly tested and understood it is not worth listening to.

It makes sense in some cases to have a cleaning fee at the end rather than building it in to the nightly cost.

A decent hotel will clean your room every day, an airbnb will not - they will just clean the place after you leave ready for the next guest. Thus the cleaning costs are the same wether you stay 1 night or 1 month.
If you're not getting daily cleanings it doesn't make sense to factor the cost into the nightly rate.

The DOD/DOW have been working on this for a while. They discovered, early on, that the device had a propensity to cause permanent nerve damage.

It's very unlikely the US have fixed that, as they'd largely sidelined the work as a failure. However, at 36%, Trump needs something he can call a win, no matter what the long-term consequences.
