Pretty much.

Something you are: can be legally compelled Something you have: can be legally compelled Something you know: cannot be legally compelled

You can still be legally compelled to provide testimony, the catch is merely that you have to be granted immunity from being charged with a crime on the basis of any derived evidence. In this case, it seems that the WaPo journalist could still be compelled to provide such information if she's not charged for any crime.

This has long been true. In a pinch you can mash the power button 5+ times to require a key code at next unlock.

Also, on iPhone, if you have face ID turned on, you can hold power+volume down (may differ depending on model) to force a passcode.

This doesn’t work for my iPhone that’s about three years old.

It's hold power+volume up (the "top two buttons" when reaching down into a pocket or purse and the phone) until the phone vibrates (~2s).

If you can see the screen, it's the fastest shortcut gesture to the screen that has "Slide to Power Off", "Medical ID", and "Emergency Call". Any other way to get to that screen also works to require a PIN before next unlock.

If your phone has home button, then you don't need to press the volume button. Otherwise, yes it does work.

I, too, miss thinking hard, before I had children.

AI isn’t the only thing that changes how you attend to life.

While this is a Cool Thing To See, I do wish things would go the other way—and have all the BI/ML/DS pipelines and workflows folks are building in Python and have them come to Elixir (and, as would follow, Elixir). I get where the momentum is, but having something functional, fault-tolerant, and concurrent underpinning work that’s naturally highly concurrent and error-prone feels like a _much_ more natural fit.

Agree, and Claude Code does very well with Elixir despite TS/Python getting all the hype:

This helps with keeping it on track writing idiomatic elixir and using good patterns: https://skills.sh/agoodway/.claude/elixir-genius

How much context is eaten up by skills that rehash what a SOTA model should already know?

Maybe token-wise, it's a wash: Elixir/OTP does a lot without third-party libs, which would require massive npm dependencies to achieve the same thing.

I think most of this trial and error "You are an experienced engineer" stuff probably hurts model performance. No one ever does comprehensive testing so eh, yolo.

There are papers showing that models follow instructions less the more instructions they have. Now you think about how many instructions are embedded in that MD + the system prompt + likely a local AGENTS.md and at the end there is probably very little here that matters.

Yeah, I honestly lean on the elixir agent one more over the full skill:

Aperture’s death coincided with my life getting less excitingly photogenic. The combination was enough to break my habit of shooting pictures altogether.

My old well-curated and edited and tagged libraries are still on S3 backups. No conversion has been satisfactory.

Yes. This is how tariffs work.

Apple dropping Aperture right after I landed stateside was enough to knock me out of the photography hobby entirely.

Been hacking on https://rsolv.dev. It's a security scanner with a couple of unique twists; in addition to using AST validation to cut the false positive rate, it uses a heavily orchestrated LLM to write unit tests that fail if the detected vulnerability is present.

Happy for alpha users; it's really early days right now. Email in profile if you want to give it a try at no cost.
