Nope, they buried the lead a bit but this is coming for _all_ users, even pro/plus subscription plans. So you get chatgpt pro/plus benefits, and then effectively $20/$200 in credits for codex

I disagree, the claude models seem the best at tool calling, opus 4.5 seems the smartest, and claude code (+ claude model) seems to make good use of subagents and planning in a way that codex doesn't

Blew it out of the water with more or less lines of code? :)

Looks like those hits are because they forked it https://github.com/oxidecomputer/cockroach (no changes since then though)

New comment by ccmcarey in "Discord Rolled Out Yubikeys for All Employees"

ccmcarey — Sun, 06 Aug 2023 14:56:03 +0000

From the article:

> Nowadays, newly-onboarded Discord corporate users receive a laptop and at least one Yubikey alongside that laptop. IT onboards users to Okta and instructs them to register at least two WebAuthn authenticators; typically, this is their Macbook’s TouchID/Windows Hello sensor and also their Security Key C NFC.

> We also instruct corporate users to set up Okta Verify for use only as a fallback MFA in the event that all their authenticators fail at once. This way, we never have user accounts lacking at least one strong form of multi-factor authentication.

So OS level keys, a yubikey for roaming, and Okta Verify for fallback

Yep. During the alpha it was (50*6) 300 images per day, by their pricing model that would be $300 a month now

That's about 10x as expensive as it should be

I flip flop between Firefox and Chrome constantly and for as long as I can remember, Chrome has always just felt snappier

Fastmail DNS Down?

ccmcarey — Fri, 08 Oct 2021 07:12:11 +0000

Seeing issues resolving domains that use their nameservers (including my own, for email, so this is Very Bad Not Good).

Their status page shows all green, only info I can find on the web is someone else (https://twitter.com/kapi/status/1446361828477440005) nearly an hour ago asking if their DNS was down.

> Theft of iPhones basically stopped being a problem because features like these makes the device a mostly useless brick once it’s marked in Apple’s systems as stolen.

Uhh, got a citation on that?
