I think they're likely being very conservative about what they issue, lest someone see the plate, be offended from misunderstanding it, and then get people riled up about how the state is supporting hate or obscenities.
The strategy I've used with these people is to let them prototype with AI and then have them hand over their work to me where I can then make it significantly more efficient. The nice thing is that their poor performing version acts as a reference for validating the output of my queries.
I haven't had any problems with syncing and using passkeys with 1Password and Firefox on MacOS, iOS, or Windows. When the site wants to create or use a passkey I get a prompt from 1Password on the device that I'm using. No need to involve a second device (which for me I'm fine with security-wise. If I really wanted to be sure there was no way of malware extracting the keys I would be using my Yubikeys)
The candidate here focused on the wrong things, causing it to be overly focused in some areas while ignoring the main task which revolved around creating an interface inspired by a specifically listed set of terminal mail applications. So, yes it was both polished and unpolished simultaneously.
It's all down to the ambient light. That's why bias lighting is now a thing. Try putting a light behind your screen to massively brighten the wall behind it, the 1000 nit peaks will be far less harsh. And if you bring the device out into sunlight I suspect you will wish for everything about its output to be quite a bit brighter.
I find Linux even more annoying when it requires elevation. I get a password prompt rather than a yes/no dialog. I don't care about defending against an attack where I left my computer unlocked while I wasn't watching it, so the password request is pointless. The only thing I need to see is that I'm elevating something and the only extra security I want is that, like on Windows, it's impossible for an application to automate clicking yes.
Last I checked there was no solution for this on Linux though. Heck I couldn't even find a way to switch it to use biometrics.
But I want a yes/no prompt. Otherwise anything can request root access and get it without my input. Again, Windows handles this about as well as any system without granular permissions based access control can. A prompt comes up which is presented on the secure desktop, thus necessitating manual intervention but only requiring a single click since the secure desktop is only able to be interacted with by SYSTEM level processes anyway.
Nothing with MDM, it's just what happens with those. I have no idea why it happens but I suspect in some cases it's badly coded apps directly asking for creds rather letting the OS do it. Whatever the reason for it is though, it's very annoying and pretty sketchy.
I only just learned of that let-else syntax here. I haven't kept a close eye on all the changes to the language over the years, but this is exactly what I've wanted if-let to allow.
Stop focusing on the additives. It would be nice and convenient and comfortable if we could just lose certain preservatives or swap out certain ingredients and magically be healthy without actually changing our diets, but that's not going to happen.
We need to stop eating so much junk food. The densely packed fat, salt, and sugar are always going to be bad for us. Find ways to encourage healthy eating, especially getting kids into the habit of it and making good food just as affordable per calorie as the junk, and you will massively help with the health problems.
Except for the crowd of extreme purists on HN where the backend is written in their divine C language by programmers blessed with an inability to ever have bugs that make it to production. Ad where the frontend is pure HTML because JavaScript is the language the devil speaks.
