Same here. 36% German, 31% Autistic. Funny thing is, I am actually German. I wonder how many Germans would be classified as German via this survey

I have been using GrapheneOS now for 8 month and its been quite a smooth ride. The biggest worry I had was flashing it onto a brand new Pixel phone I had just bought. Everything else works fine though. Currently using 3 (german) banking apps and I haven't had a single issue. Also still using Google apps like camera and maps. Also Gboard as the default GrapheneOS keyboard is a bit uncomfortable. Really nice that you can just remove the network permissions and it works like a charm

I find a that actually a disturbing assumption. I've learned a lot from reading other peoples code, seeing how they were thinking and spotting errors, so the good and the bad. I believe that in order to actually write good code its important to actually understand what is the context of the task which basically requires a lot of code reading, which is also sometimes quite enjoyable when you have competent authors. Reading code is an essential part of the game. If you cannot do that you'll just create huge balls of mud with or without ai usage. Though using ai will speedrun the mud so yeah, there is an argument for not using it.

Thanks, I didn't know about consent-o-matic, will try it out. If it works that will be the best extension in a long time.

In the end it comes down to the actual implementation. The article states that the data stored is just a hash of the iris scan. From that hash accounts can be created that can be used to verify against that hash to make sure your are an actual person. According to the twitter post multiple accounts can be created and and used for verification independently, so indeed providing some privacy. So the question that remains is can the world id be used to discover these accounts, which would be bad. That question remains unanswered. There is of course the point that you have to trust Sam Altman that the system works the way it is claimed and no actual biometric data is stored.

Interesting project. Would it be able to run a fastapi project just like uvicorn in production?

As someone with 13 years of experience in Backend Development and Devops and currently working in a startup that might run out of money next year, would it make sense to start looking for a new job right now or just wait it out? Also considering that I'm working in Europe where job protection laws are quite strict and having worked in a company for 3 years will give you strong job security. So basically I will be one of the last ones to be laid off.
