It was mostly a simulation. There were a few ways you could interact with the person but you couldnโ€™t control them. Sometimes they decided to leave for a while and they were justโ€ฆ gone!

From a user POV Passkeys are the same. You can only use them if you have the DB they are stored in. You protect against loss by syncing that DB all over the place. If you lose all the copies somehow you have to do a reset/recovery everywhere.

With a password manager, your passwords are long and random. You canโ€™t memorize them, so if you lose your password DB you have to do a PW reset everywhere. You protect against that by keeping the DB synced all over the place.

A lot of the comments are from people who donโ€™t trust Passkeys because they donโ€™t understand the failure modes. Theyโ€™re essentially identical to the failure modes of password managers.

The big idea behind passkeys is that passwords are _fundamentally broken_ and that solution to the problem is not to layer on top of them, but to replace them. Offering โ€œpasskeysโ€ as a second factor confuses people and puts a false ceiling on the potential benefits.

In 2025 (less than 30 days away), PayPal will start selling your transaction history for targeted advertising.

I very highly recommend logging into your account and going to Settings > Data & Privacy > Personalized Shopping.

If you're reading this, turn that off RIGHT NOW before you forget.

how do you all remember every UUID? I find it really hard. so I wrote them all down on every uuid dot com

the list has fast search across all 2^122 values (so you can find your favorites) - hoping to add some social features like "trending UUIDs" soon!

Seven years ago, I wrote my first feature for PC Gamer. A showcase of roguelikes that are reinventing the genre. One of those three was Caves of Qud.

It just left early access after many, MANY years in development. I loved it 7 years ago. I adore it now.

i have been imagining this world for years, and i want to make this game so people can go there and live many lives in it!

the game features whole-cloth, accessible design, deep mysteries, and a meticulous generated living world.

Do you have experience implementing passkeys on your orgโ€™s website or network? Have you supported passkey use for end users? Have you tested how passkeys sync/work across platforms or on different sites? If so, Iโ€™m eager to speak with you. Please DM me on Signal (DanArs.82) or here. Please boost.

If you do the Advent of Code in Swift youโ€™ll definitely want a parsing library, and this oneโ€™s solid. I wish i could use it in Swift Playgrounds on iPad, but they donโ€™t support building macros yet.
