I share the same thing. In fact, being a commissioner he was probably explicitly warned against taking any action into his own hands.

A commissioner can easily mess things up and get sued trying do work on their own. Say they try to “repair a playground” by replacing a missing bolt. Well, were they qualified to do that? Do they have insurance? Was the action approved by a properly filed motion? Etc etc etc

I learned this is why it costs my town egregious sums to do simple maintenance work; the only companies willing to put up with all the red tape of working with the government have to charge a premium.

The part about him being a commissioner smells like a simple publicity stunt.

Maybe it’s ok to email a person after they click a button that says “mail me my 2fa” code? Not a lawyer but it feels right that if I say it’s ok to send me a one off email explicitly, it can omit an unsubscribe

We built the pilot to show a standard lightning invoice with a QR code and NFC. Any wallet capable of paying that invoice could pay.

Whatever wallet you use did need to have liquidity on the network that can reach our routing node, c=, but we worked hard to make sure we had plenty of liquidity to all major wallets. I definitely recommended cashapp without shame at the conference, but I did a lot of testing with other wallets too. I never had much trouble, even with non-custodial lightning wallets.

Thanks for building this. I am going to try it out next time I can use it!

For anything that is important enough, I put passkeys on 2 separate FIDO2 key devices directly. Services that come to mind are things with recovery backdoors; like email or device backups. Unfortunately many banks and financial institutions don't support passkeys, but I'd consider using that solution there too.

This is the exact reason I self host vault warden. I get all the convenience of syncing passkeys, but know that I am the only one with access to the back-end.

I am also slightly paranoid as a security engineer, and admit that whole heartedly.

Of course, the customer is the advertisers, not the users.

Python was first released in the early 90s. If you compare Python packaging to other languages of its time, its not so crazy. For comparison, C++ was released in '85.

Is this sarcasm? I disagree vehemently. These are things that should be the most repairable.

This is awesome, I ordered one.

Please bring this display technology to larger formats if it ever makes sense economically, this is like the dream for a wall calendar.

If I recall correctly the ordinance only barred the city's police from "acquiring or using" the software without approval and reports to a committee. Merely asking someone else to use it on their behalf is probably ok (per the ordinance). Its kind of hard to actually ban any particular technology, if it is useful, people will find a way to use it.
