Developer's machines and cicd systems are high value targets. They were absolutely right to point that out.

You want to be authenticated specifically on the device that you're using to access the website. Not some arbitrary other device.

If you enter your username, password, and totp, and the website tells you you've logged in from some device halfway across the planet you've never heard of, you probably have a problem.

The city is polluted. Do we replace the entire city or install air filters? It's mostly a matter of scale.

I find it a bit strange to make a blanket statement like that, dismissing an entire field of research as 'not a net positive'.

Who's going to be on the hook for ID verification? Ah, right... Just a thought, making open source maintainers do more unpaid work is probably not the answer to the problem of overworked open source maintainers.

$300 million of that was raised against a $3 billion valuation, and another $700 million against a $10 billion valuation. All in all fairly little dilution for Conde Nast / Advance Publications.

Reddit admins only have site-wide rules to worry about. They don't need to care about whether a particular post is appropriate for a particular subreddit. If they did that would make their job a lot more complicated.

Unless you want to be using tor all day every day, and never make an online purchase or log in on a website ever again, there's really no way to stop companies from tracking you. The only way to make that happen is if a regulatory authority forces them to. That's why the GDPR exists.

Haskell, for instance, has the 'fromJust :: Maybe A -> A' function that allows you to do just that. It unpacks the Maybe typed value and throws a runtime error if it fails.
