Yep. Doesn't even stay in the context.

How does this apply to OPEN-SOURCE MAINTAINERS! This is why I say it's a FUD. Nobody looks at a technology like LSP and starts raving about how you HAVE to use it or you'll be "left behind". Whether it's useful or not is immaterial when it becomes a fetish object in itself.

What's the deal with ascribing maintainers a personal duty to jump on the latest tech FUD? If it works then great, _some day_ they might adopt it, and if they don't, people outside the project can contribute these improvements, or worst case, fork it.

Remote attestation is a heavily underdiscussed threat to computing freedom. People often mistakenly dismiss it with "I will run my own fork (of the OS or browser) / Magisk", not understanding that with hardware attestation, you're literally unable to 1/

Remote attestation explained with wojaks.
A bunch of normies' computers/phones are sending a cryptographic proof that their hardware+software is FAANG-approved and signed.

So the cloud service returns the content they're asking for.

A fourth wojak is unable to provide such cryptographic proof (because he runs non-FAANG-approved local software), and gets denied access

Deepfakes are everywhere, but digital forensics investigators are fighting back. Learn more: scim.ag/42dMPBg

To verify images, digital forensics investigators will often check whether the geometry of the scene is realistic. In a real photo, lines that run parallel in reality—like floor tiles—should meet at a single vanishing point. In this image, however, the dotted lines do not meet in a single point, indicating it is a fake.
Image: an AI-generated image of soldiers marching down a hallway in three lines, wearing fatigues and carrying rifles. Four dotted white lines have been added over the image, running along the floor tiles visible in the foreground and extending back to where the vanishing point should be, behind the soldiers. Instead of meeting in a single point, the lines all cross at different points.

Investigators also examine reflections. The lines connecting points on an object to matching points in its mirror image run parallel in reality, so similarly should meet at a vanishing point. In this image, the lines again do not converge on one point, revealing it to be a fake.
Image: An AI-generated image of a plastic cartoon dinosaur toy with its reflection visible in a small mirror. Four dotted white lines are layered over the image, connecting points on the toy with the same points on its reflection: the top of its eye, the end of its jaw, its hand, and its foot. The lines extend out to the side of the image, where they all cross at different points rather than meeting at a single point.

A friend of a friend (Pete Fenelon, RIP) in a compiler writing class produced a compiler with one error message: "you lied to me when you told me this was a program". I briefly adopted this approach myself before learning better the hard way. This cricket approach is genius.

The idea there is since user can be mislead into exporting their key, the password managers need to stop allowing that. And the only way to ensure they comply with these guidelines is by introducing attestation and handing the whitelist to the service provider.
