My Yubikey supports passkeys and protects them with a PIN of my choosing. No services need challenge me further.
Modern CPUs are quite capable. The problem isn’t performance, but power use.
Collect the data in the stored procedure with temp/in-memory tables and return minimal, non-duplicated, related result sets.
Single round trip, still accumulates results in efficient bulk batches, and allows results to be processed by the client as they stream in.
That’s what I’m personally banking on. I think anyone with the resources to bypass these would first just use a rubber hose.
I suppose you could splurge for a Mac desktop and then get the cheapest, smallest screen possible, but I hope it’s rare.
I have doubts that it did, as that would warrant a safety recall.
Another example for all you computer folks out there: ultimately, all software
engineering is just moving electrons around. But imagine how hard your job would
be if you could only talk about electrons moving around. No arrays, stacks,
nodes, graphs, algorithms—just those lil negatively charged bois and their
comings and goings.
I think this too easily skips over the fact that the abstractions are based on a knowledge of how things actually work - known with certainty. Nobody in CS is approaching the computer as an entirely black box and making up how they think or hope it works. When people don't know how the computer actually works, their code is wrong - they get bugs and vulnerabilities they don't understand and can't explain.Building an interface to search that data is exactly how you’d evaluate a recommendation engine.
Kidding aside, where exactly does it end? How do you consider when you’ve hit “too much” and how many pieces must be split out when you do? Should every product in the Office suite be offered only individually?
