>it would be trivial to add a service that would sign challenges to prove so

If the author was being dishonest about the key, they could just keep the key on another secure server and have the vulnerable one forward the challenge requests to it.

Send a lot of them and have them act as relays

I clicked begin and immediately alt tabbed to ChatGPT. I took a screenshot of the prompt and pasted to ChatGPT, with the instruction "Write a 1 paragraph response as if you were a human". I alt tabbed back to the writing website and started typing ChatGPTs response. I intentionally added a few pauses in places where I thought I might pause, and deleted words a couple times. I also slightly changed the last sentence from "down, plus the assumption that..." to "down. And.." to give it the human touch of poor grammar, although I'm not sure if that mattered.

I scored 100 "Highly Authentic"

Instructions to ChatGPT:

[What's something you pretend to understand but actually don't? Why do you fake it?] Write a 1 paragraph response as if you were a human.

Response:

Honestly, I probably nod along to conversations about highly technical stuff like advanced financial instruments or super niche software internals when I only grasp the surface, because stopping to ask for a full breakdown can derail the moment or make me look out of my depth. It's not about trying to deceive anyone, it's more about social momentum and not wanting to slow things down. And I can fill in the gaps later if I need to.

Yes, and you would almost certainly want to automate it with a filter wheel that changes the filters for you on a schedule. However, a key advantage of a mono camera is that you don't have to limit yourself to RGB filters. You can use some other set of filters better suited for the object you are capturing and map them back to RGB in software. This is most commonly done with narrowband filters for Hydrogen, Sulfur and Oxygen which allow you to see more detail in many deep space objects and cut out most of the light pollution that would otherwise get in your way.

They look like they could be lines of code to me.

I responded to one of their sales emails saying that I liked their service because it was free, and I wasn't interested in paying for their advice. Haven't heard from them since, but have been using the free service for years.

>If you mark to market the bonds these banks are carrying you can see they are insolvent.

Do you have any sources/data for this? I saw something for BofA that indicated a $110b mark to market unrealized loss, but they have roughly $200b in equity so that wouldn't make them insolvent. I don't know if that $110b included everything or just a subset of their hold-to-maturity assets and would love to see more complete data for all big the banks if you have a nicely consolidated source for it?
