Even if you throw your phone into a volcano and buy a new one, you can still receive SMS verification.
The entire value proposition, and the reason big sites are pushing them, is they take the user out of the loop of authentication. You are no longer authenticating the user, you're authenticating the users device.
For websites you don't have to worry about cookie theft and dealing with the support load of users needing their accounts reset or dealing with fraud. You can also do some level of attestation to hardware which makes automated account creation more difficult.
For the user it offers no additional benefits. You still have something secret that gets presented to a website to login. Password managers solved this problem. But now for some reason you can't log in when you buy a new laptop.
Selling it is pure icing on top.
- Yahoo News is introduced twice (sentiment and news analysis) which double weights it
- Sentiment analysis prompt primes the model to be bullish on Nvidia.
- In the self learning loop there is a complex parsing bug that results in hallucinated memories when agents return truncated responses
- You can completely control sentiment analysis of a subreddit by simply maintaining a majority of the 5 most recently posted messages, regardless of any quality metric
- The reflection prompt states the agent must cite alpha, which in a market wide downturn causes it to think correctly placed calls were losses
This is why we pushed to deploy TLS everywhere instead of focusing on a scheme to PGP sign every webpage on the internet.
DNSSEC was a solution trying to solve the problem of DNS security while still maintaining transparency for DNS operators to spy on queries. At the time, passive DNS was one of the tent poles of tracking malware and responding to security incidents.
We have since committed entirely to transport security in the form of DoH and friends. It solves the vast majority of problems we actually have.
I've been building a SaaS that deals with data that can't be distributed to third parties. Some of the useful AI stuff I can add is not time sensitive and can run overnight. Things like this allow me to use higher quality models without selling my house for GPUs.
Nvidia's entire business is dependent on Google not being able to make TPUs fast enough.
Per employee tax = $0.20 * commute_miles * 2 * (commute_miles / 10)^2 * mandated_office_days_per_year * (1 + 2 * share_of_workforce_over_10_miles)^2
Tech companies can have more distributed offices and assign employees based on geography instead of teams, go back to WFH, pay employees enough to live close to their mega campuses, or pay out the ass into adding more lanes.
Joel Ferry, the executive director of Utah's DNR retooled state laws to allow water right leasing and promoted HB187 which allows you to hold water rights without developing them.
He also happens to be a large shareholder in Bear River Canal Company and has been going around quietly buying up water rights from smaller canals and municipalities.
Grow The Flow is closely aligned with Great Salt Lake Rising (ran by the son of Mitt Romney), who plan to solve the issue ahead of the 2034 Olympics by buying up water rights from private owners. They committed $100 million of their own money, but got it matched with $300 million in state funds and a $1 billion budget line item from the Trump administration.
Be wary of environmentalism that is being driven by the wealthiest families in the state.

After extensive testing and benchmarking I discovered that when you ask one model to judge another's response you don't actually get a better answer. You are just asking it "how closely does this resemble the answer you would have given me." Additional rounds and all the "obvious" solutions that pop into your mind reading the proceeding sentence are essentially just cranking up the temperature.
I did find a solution, but it is insanely expensive. Maybe if this gains traction I'll release mine.
This is most likely OFAC. Lets Encrypt could apply for a license to do business with sanctioned entities, and given their use case it would most likely be approved.
Differential parsing is a whole class of security bugs and they matter a lot. Take a look at HTTP Request Smuggling for examples.
Also, I am pretty sure there are more non-web x509 certificates out there than all the "browser trusted CAs" combined have signed. :)
The reason everyone came running when Cloudflare first started was obviously the "burn VC money to gain marketshare" but it was also the sheer simplicity. They had one product and a handful of features.
Until someone on the business side takes a step back and says "when I mouse over 'Products' on the homepage, why the fuck is there a 'See All Products' link" it will be impossible to have a usable customer experience. Start killing things and making them features.
"Alphabet announced that its 2026 capital expenditures are expected to be $180-$190 billion, and that it expects 2027 capital expenditures to significantly increase [...] over the 12 months ended March 31, 2026, Alphabet generated $174 billion of operating cash flow"
48/8 was originally allocated to BBN. They were a major defense contractor and are now part of Raytheon.
CyberChron developed electronics that were designed for rugged environments. Think bouncing around inside of a tank or being accidentally dropped while loading crypto keys onto the radios of a fighter jet.
The fundamental flaw with this plan is if your fear is genuinely of the United States, your data is far more protected inside the US. The intelligence community has no restrictions operating on foreign networks and servers.
Rather than go to a FISA court for approval, we just hack your box and take your data. Or ask a European intelligence service to use the much more lax laws to compel its disclosure.
Yes, data collection happens on US soil. But ask anyone who has worked on the inside how much of a pain it is to view or process USPER data.
ChromeOS was honestly the best they could do.
Cloudflare spent a bunch of venture capital to give away expensive things for free and buy market share. If you convince all the grocery stores to move to your island, you can operate a den of criminal activity with no fear of everyone else shunning you.
Talk to anyone who fights botnets, malware, or online scams. Once you hit the Cloudflare dead end you just have to give up. Law enforcement isn't going to take up a case where only 7,000 peoples computers are infected, and Cloudflare isn't going to investigate and take action themselves.
