Also, the thought that we as a married couple are not an entity is strange to me, but I guess that's the modern way of thinking, and I am old.
It's most definitely baloney because I also had to provide ID. So, certainly there is no way I could identify myself "even more" by giving them a phone number than by giving them a government issued ID.
But this might not really have been a 2FA case - I mean, I was physically sitting in the bank.
His jaw dropped half-way through when he asked for my wife's and my phone number, and I had to tell him that I don't own a smart phone.
Turns out you must have a smart phone because the system sends you some kind of code to verify your identity. Let that sink in: I am sitting in front of the clerk, but in order to identify me, he needs me to give him some phone number.
The only way we could finalize the application is by me asking my mother whether I could use her phone number briefly to get this over with. She forwared the code to my wife's phone. That worked in the end -- but so much for "identifying me".
I didn't follow up what became of her startup idea, but there's no way she could have ever gotten it off the ground in just two months, like the guy from the article and his brother. More like two years...

So, the attack vector here is the following: attacker provides a malicious script in a .git directory, packaged for download. If the user unpacks the the package and merely opens a file, Emacs runs `git ls-files` which in turn executes the malicious script.
However, while I agree that this is a flaw in git, and Emacs should rightfully expect that running an "ls" command should be considered harmless, I do not agree with the stance that this does not require a reaction on the part of the Emacs maintainers: Now that you've been made aware of this unfortunate git behavior, I think some steps should be taken to not trigger it. That is, the functionality that runs `git ls-files` should be double checked (do we really need it? can we avoid the malicious side-effects? etc.)
But in general, I think obsessing over the monospace font you use for coding is, ultimately, bike shedding. I've used a lot of different fonts over the year, not because I was trying to find the best one, but because I used the default font of whatever tool I was using at the time, and - guess what - I was fine with it every time.
Funny, I would probably swap the first and the last adjective in that sentence.

That actually doesn't seem like a lot (240 articles per year), but I suppose they're still in the process of gaining traction.
