When it all goes down the pan, the only ones who will have benefited will be Trump and his cronies who receive the "20 percent reserved for World Liberty Financial team compensation".

Passkeys are NOT inherently tied to a single device. They can be backed up and restored on other devices (including multiple devices at once). Apple handle them this way. It's just that Microsoft's current implementation is lacklustre. As their implementation matures, MS will eventually add sync too. From an end user perspective, Passkeys should work in a similar way to password managers. The only difference with Passkeys is that the "passwords" (private keys) are not chosen by (or even visible to) the end users. Passkeys are also resistant to phishing, as the OS will only authenticate with the original issuing service.

Why the hate for PWAs? PWAs are a great way to publish apps to users, especially if you've already got a responsive website that works well in small screen formats. I've developed a number of business apps that are PWA based that do QR code scanning, and it's great to not be tied into any particular framework. With one code base, you can have an app that works as a website, and also "installs" and runs (as far as end users are concerned) as an app on iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, and any other platform that supports PWAs.

This sounds about as sensible as asking the Enterprise computer to "create an adversary capable of defeating Data".

They can and they should ban crypto trading on the stock markets. This will prevent investors and pension funds etc from becoming exposed. They can also ban payment processors from dealing with crypto exchanges, and prevent banks from setting up merchant bank accounts with them.

Putin's worst nightmare is another uprising in Belarus. Nobody wants to live under the boot of a puppet dictator, and they've clearly had enough of Lukashenko after the last set of rigged elections resulted in mass protests. Deplorably, Putin was allowed to send in tanks to Belarus to terrorise people into submission and trample on human rights in 2020. The people of Belarus don't want war, dictators, or Russian manipulation. It's just a tiny few in power that are betraying their own people, and condemning them to tyranny and hardship. The people in Belarus who are doing all they can to frustrate Putin's vile plans are absolute heroes.

Imagine waking up, and you can't see or hear or feel any sensation. All you're aware of is your thoughts. Then you remember the last thing you did was to use the brain scanning device...then it dawns on you where you are. After what seems like an eternity of only your own thoughts for company, panic sets in as the researcher (maybe the real you!) in the real world begins experimenting with sending you input...

I work at an ISV with 2000+ employees across the UK, and the results of a survey conducted last week was: 66% continue to work from home, 27% hybrid working, 7% return full time to the office.

How can the UK be okay with extraditing a businessman to the US, when the US refuses to extradite the woman who has been charged with the death of Harry Dunn by dangerous driving?

Waymo has a fully autonomous self driving taxi service which is open to the public in central Phoenix right now. It's actually been a reality for over a year, yet nobody seems to be talking about it. Check out this dude's experiences with the service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

It's almost like it's becoming some sort of net in the sky...oh no the terminators are already here!

If we ever figure out how to link two points via micro-wormholes and send energy through them, ubiquitous wireless power would make a massive difference to the world. Imagine never having to worry about your phone losing charge. Electric cars would have essentially unlimited range (wear and tear permitting). If we could utilise the same tech for data transmission as well that would be a nice bonus!

Knock knock. Who's there? IMAP. IMAP who?

I predict that owning a car will soon become a thing of the past, and we won't have to worry about paying insurance and all the other costs associated with owning a vehicle. We'll end up with mass rental pools of vehicles, which are owned, maintained, insured, refueled, etc by the rental company. We'll simply summon a ride using an app, and minutes later the nearest car will pick you up, take you directly to where you want to go, then it'll zoom off and service the next customer (or back to the depo to refuel/recharge).

Scientists: Hey guys we've invented this amazing new thing!
Me: Cool, let's see a video of it in action.
Scientists: Pfft! We've done one better than that - we've written a paper on it instead.
Me: Gaahhhhh!!!
