Which hemisphere? Northern or Southern?

in what legal way would a phone call be any different than an MFA challenge as far as impacting whether a phone could be subpoenaed? both involve another side with exhaustive logging. neither provide your employer with any access to your device. if you use your phone to place a call, you've exposed it just as much as using it to do MFA imho

it doesn't support "phish resistant" MFA with push notifications

we allow users to use their personal devices for MFA as a convenience, and we provide physical Yubikeys to users that prefer not to use their personal device for MFA. we do not provide phones or require anyone to use their own for anything. the vast majority of users opt to use their own device rather than carry the yubikey

yes this is the best technique we've found so far, but some users still rush to install a fake one or seem to struggle with basic reading comprehension.

the point is that this problem shouldn't exist in the first place

that would be nice but our corporate phone system doesn't do SMS and I'm not of fan of having the techs use their personal devices for work purposes. plus users tend to bother them directly if they know their cell #. we really aren't a bunch of idiots, this is just not a simple problem to solve

we are IT. we aren't involved in making job offers. we just get a ticket to onboard Bob Smith

difficult to send them anything until they are onboarded to our communications system, which requires the MFA app. Kind of chicken and egg situation

My IT team regularly has to help iPhone users install the Microsoft authenticator app for MFA as part of adding them to our email system. It is very difficult to walk someone through this over the phone as there are so many fake authenticator apps with very similar icons. They even work, they just charge a $10/month subscription for something the official MS app does for free.

... though not exclusively. There are cases where making the choice between Perl and Python still has me leaning toward Perl. Perl was my first (non shell) interpreted language and it still feels like a comfortable pair of slippers.

I had to modify a Perl script written back in 2010 when the Govt recently decided to change the format of data I was reading via Perl. It took longer to figure out the change in the data than it did to modify the 15 year old Perl script.

Python is fine -- I really like the ArgumentParser module and a few others -- but going back to make changes to an old Python script is more painful than it is for a similarly aged Perl script. What helps when I have to deal with Python is using Code with some plugins that make the indentation more obvious (esp. Blockman).

AI didn't set the password to 123456 in mcdonalds hiring system. Is this award just going to anything that in any way remotely involved AI?

I agree. The summary evens mentions staff having time to attend training sessions or take a walk. These are real benefits being delivered even with a product that noone would argue is at the cutting edge of current AI. As you mention, with time and experience people will find ways to maximize these benefits even as the product itself improves.

isn't that basically what PCI, HIPAA and such were supposed to be?

These robots don't "consume" anything. They can attach to each other with what looks like magnets. That is all.

It's quite suspicious given that multiple other, older LLMs have no trouble with this question and OP provides no evidence, not even a convincing copy paste. What AI just spits out a list of numbers without surrounding text explaining their thinking these days?
And yet OP is rated informative. Really tells us a lot about the user bias vs critical thinking that is happening here
