Well that's the thing. I was a GE Aviation engineer for years. I'm well aquainted with the growing pains on LM2500s and 6000s, and they've had all manner of issues despite being built on cores with millions of hours of experience. It's not the limited runs that's problematic, it's the zero real world use.

By requiring a certificate, this is defacto control of sideloading. Google can refuse to issue a certificate for whatever reason they want. The argument is that if it's your device, google should not be involved at all in the sideloading process. I really can't come up with a reason this is any different than Microsoft telling you you can't install chrome without their blessing.

Actually, no. Requiring them to pay at the begining would mean financial aid has to go out earlier, making it even harder to detect fake students. There is no world in which making aid recipients pay upfront will work. Colleges are already plenty equipped to verify students with remote proctoring tools. If they can't even do that for the most important of all things, the $$$$, then they need to be held accountable.

There isn't a real issue to normal people. The background is that every day for the last two decades software developers and artists have complained that they're underpaid, overworked, and underappreciated by the game studios. AI is just the latest thing for them to complain about RE job security.

Well that's the kicker isn't it. Someone can walk up to you on the street, vaguely threaten you to get you to unlock your phone with the pin code, and now they have access to everything. Have fun. Of course they could do that before passkeys since ever other person seems to let their iPhone remember all their passwords anyway. I'm totally for hardware keys + passwords, but using your phone as the password is a pretty poor idea from a security perspective. Just saying that though would ignore that passkeys are unphishable, which is a big improvement for most people.

Or maybe it's because patients haven't given and don't want to give consent to have their visit recorded in a permanent fashion. These systems are supposed to write visit summaries that doctors are typing by hand immediately after seeing the patient. They're not intended to provide a verbatim transcript nor be entered into a record before review by the doctor.

I don't know how many ways this can be said. It's right on the payment page with incorrect grammar and all: "Make sure you're sending to someone you trust, and their information is correct. Money is typically available in their account in minutes. Once you've sent money, you can't cancel it."
