That ks for sharing this, this is fascinating.

Maybe the underlying rule is: the more you know about something, the more you are aware of its flaws, making the alternatives you know less about more attractive?

What’s the median though? Through burnout, chronic illnesses,… some people are out sick for weeks or months at a time. That moves the average significantly.

Also e.g. parents becoming sick via their children more than they would on their own. And so on.

In any case - this isn’t really an issue, is it? It has worked without issue for a long time. This is simply an attempt to reduce workers’ rights and reduce spending at the cost of the poor and middle class, because the top few percent are sacred to the CDU.

Ernsthaft :(

It’s used for when you are sick.

No. As the other person said. The answers to the zkp do not refer to each other. All the site knows is SOME user was not 18 yesterday, and today SOME user is 18 (or 24… or 89…). No relation between the two zkps/certs.

There isn’t one. Local, on-device zero knowledge proof in a cross-platform OSS app. You scan your ID’s NFC tag, once. Site only gets “is over 18 y/n” info. We all already have these IDs and they are used for a bunch of stuff, from doing taxes to creating bank accounts.

Agreed. The “parents are too blame” crowd is insane to me. How are you gonna control what your kid does on the wifi hotspot Derek in the last row on the school bus created?

The app (open source, cross platform, completely locally, no photo id, no 3rd parties involved) only provides sites with a yes/no on “is person over 18?”, via an on-device zkp.

So good luck pitching a solution that is more privacy friendly than this, because this is pretty much the perfect solution. I’m honestly elated that the EU is releasing this, because it means I’ll NOT need to deal with privacy-nightmare situations like in other countries where legislation came before a technical solution. This lays a fantastic baseline for the EU to force companies to use THIS solution for age verification, essentially killing the data harvesters dead.

1. increasing work hours is a one-time “boost”. It gives a numbers bump once. It’s not continued growth.
2. working LESS has been shown time and time again to actually make workers more productive
3. working more will mean even fewer children, a problem we desperately need to address and which will harm the economy even more in the long term
4. our social contract is broken. Fixing the economy and the country can’t be done by extracting more work from the working class. The decades-long profiteers from privatization and giga-profits need their stolen wealth ripped from them. I can not understate this point. Literally all our economical and most of our societal problems could be fixed relatively easily by spending money: repair infrastructure; properly fund and repair the Bahn; pay teachers enough to make the job attractive, fix up schools, make proper education available to everyone; pay higher wages, so parents can choose to only have one parent working, but also provide free Kitas; and so on. I even would go as far as to say that materially and directly improving people’s lives like this would deal a blow to the rise of right wing politics and faschism, since a lot of those voters are simply frustrated with their misery and powerlessness (not all, obv…). A supposedly center-left party going “höh–höh, suck it, work more” does the opposite of this. And to get back to this bullet point: the money for ALL of that and more IS THERE. Just… Unjustly held by the few.

Now tell me again, why is it on me to spend additional years of my life toiling away to “fix” the economy when it’s ineffectual, counterproductive down the line, and a much easier, more just solution exists?

Eh, idc

IMHO, this time round, only without special treatment and only if adopting the Euro.

Ehm… I’m also on Nixos and I’d say it’s super trivial.

services.openssh = {
  enable = true;
  settings = {
    PasswordAuthentication = false;
    PermitRootLogin = "no";
  };
};

users.users.<name>.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys = [ list of pubkeys ideally read from file in repo ];

Eh, the machine is actually in one of my wireguard nets anyways, but for different purposes.

The nice thing about SSH key-based access is, I either have the key and login succeeds, or I have no business trying to log in.

That’s why my remote root server bans via fail2ban after a single failed login.

Yes I’ve had to write support to get a KVM. Yes it’s still configured like this.

The Magus Circle seems like a fantastic concept.

Also I wonder how long it takes for someone to come up with a mod for it that forces/lets your practice kanji lol

Past me had a dick

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Seniors

Or TUI.

Lmao. Lmfao, even.

Here, I’m gonna save you some time and summarize the article for you:

• everyone is talking about how good LLMs are [citation missing], but they’re missing the point!
• because really, we’re already so much further ahead! There be magic tools out there!
• wait, you want to know which ones? Uuuuh sorry, the people building then are keeping them a secret…
• …because they are just THAT FRIGHTENINGLY GOOD! [citation missing]
• seriously, I used one of them to build a 30k/month product in 2 hours with zero coding!
• I mean… A subset at least. Oh I also did not do any review, so no idea just how badly fucked it is. Ah, and I guess the price tag comes from the existing reputation and legal guarantees provided by the original tool, which obviously I also couldn’t replicate.
• but worry not! I’m sure I’d be able to build the full tool in DAYS!
• I won’t though. Even though it could TOTALLY make me 30k per month per user. Totally.
• instead, I’ll PROVE to you JUST HOW GOOD these SECRET TOOLS are! Checkout this GitHub repo!
• …ah, no, sorry, I misspoke. I’ll obviously NOT be using the secret, but TOTALLY REAL [citation missing] tools that this entire article is about. For some reason. They’re totally real though bro. Trust me bro. I’m sure one more data-center will fix it bro. Just need to prompt right bro. Like bro, people don’t realize how gooooooood LLMs are bro. I swear bro. My prompts are so good I need to keep them secret because it’s SCARY bro. Bro.

Ahem. Maybe I editorialized a tiny bit. Not much though, trust me bro.

Nice, I was able to send an email to that.
