Yeah. It used to be done discreetly by the CIA but Trump is trying to cut costs.

I’m sure that the concept of “us” and “them” outdates the concept of countries.
If we got rid of countries then the people over that hill or across that river would become “them”.


You don’t for the one time codes because there is a standard that is supported by many authenticator apps.


App based 2FA is better. Either the app generates a time based code that you enter into the site or the site sends a push notification to the app asking you to verify the login attempt.
Passkeys are good too as they replace the password completely and leave the 2FA part to the device.


It’s better than nothing and some people would really struggle to do other types of 2FA.
I find this very odd because Azure DevOps is hardly ever down in our experience.


I expect that it just means that they have a number of rolls that they expect to use in a week and that’s all that they buy. After that you have to buy your own.


Isn’t it relative though? They’re left of the Republicans so they are the left most choice Americans have.
The best reaction video ever.
Along with Nathan Drake for exactly the same reason.


I think that it looks great but it doesn’t look big on privacy so I think that my wife would be a bit concerned about that.


Microsofts documentation is also increasingly just outright _wrong_:
There used to be a spot on joke about Microsoft documentation taking the piss out of the fact that it was always 100% accurate but at the same time pretty useless. That joke hasn’t been relevant for a while.
It’s so frustrating trying to find out how to do something in one of the admin centres for M365 and you find a Microsoft document with exactly what you need in it only to find out that the UI has changed and the steps don’t work now. Did they move it? Did they remove it? Who knows?


Same with WhatsApp and Facebook. Even if you’ve never installed or signed up for either they already know who you know.


I’d also like to point out that when you say “the energy mix” you’re not meaning the energy mix used by this project.
If any of our energy is from fossil fuels then increasing the use of energy increases the use of fossil fuels. Even if a new project uses 100% renewable energy it will increase the amount of fossil fuels used until we’ve eliminated them completely.


It wouldn’t surprise me if they have an island of clones to get over that problem.
You can’t get past the old brain problem though so Donny’s shit out of luck.
Except we’ve been eliminating manual labour jobs for much longer than we’ve had AI.


Damn if that’s the case, my paranoia is gonna go overdrive.

Btw, has anyone here actually got hacked? I feel like the media always overexaggerates “hacking” and its mostly people just using weak passwords (user error), not really hacking.
It’s more likely to be that they found out your login credentials, yes.
They might find a site with crappy security where they can try many usernames and passwords without getting blocked or they might actually hack the site and get the password list.
Having a strong password, not reusing passwords and enabling MFA goes a long way towards protecting against those scenarios.


The AI Fix podcast had a piece about how someone let an AI agent do the coding for them but had a disaster because he gave it access to the production database.
Very funny.

I imagine that this is actually what happened.
The AI Fix podcast regularly has reports on the testing of AI models and the testers perform many tests of a situation and report what percentage of times they saw a specific outcome.
It’s amazing how many times they exhibit human behaviour such as lying, hiding their mistakes, and resorting to blackmail. They were even shown to behave like gambling addicts as reported in this article.
