Yeah it was unlocked. My friend said what they did initially was to completely disconnect it from all cellular networks so Find My couldn't remotely disable it. This also meant they couldn't connect to cloud services but there was enough data/documents stored on the device that they still were able to get his SSN, Passport, cached messages, etc.

Yeah almost all finance apps do. Used to work at Robinhood and this was actually my feature, otherwise we'd just see ridiculous levels of fraud and have to end up eating the cost of it.

I had my bag stolen with clothes + work laptop out of my rental car in San Francisco, from the trunk, while parked in an underground garage with security on patrol.

SF has an especially bad problem with shoplifting and robberies, but it's happening in a lot of other places too.

A friend who worked in a senior position at a FAANG had his phone stolen while it was unlocked, and within minutes they had disabled Find My. They had full access to his work accounts + private data + identity documents for several hours, so he has to get everything replaced. Crazy that for most folks the most valuable assets isn't the device itself but the information on it, and criminals have started to realize that.

We've been struggling with costs because our application chains together multiple calls to GPT to generate the output we want, and it was starting to be ~$0.08 per call which obviously isn't feasible for high volume applications.

This just made our business way more viable overnight lmao

This is spot on!

Really captures the feeling of a stroll through the Tenderloin

They've done a great job at making it an addictive experience. I'm committed to keeping my streak even though I'm not making nearly as much progress as I expected on my actual Spanish.
