The tone of that comment does sound a bit "dick-ish", but I can't be totally sure without knowing his history with that CEO. Thanks and I'll keep an eye out for more evidence like this. In videos he seems pretty nice to me, although it could of course be a facade.

Can you share a public video that demonstrates this? I've never seen it. Not saying it can't be true.

imho https://pairdrop.net/ is the best one of these

There's a little mention that's easy to miss:

> With a powerful new emulator, Prism, your apps run great, whether native or emulated.

Curious to hear more about what strides they've made there.

UPDATE: Found more details here -> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/05/microsoft-says-prism...

10-20% faster emulation

I think it's very close to landing into the release version. I've seen people discuss it working in the testflight/beta release on iOS

I haven't compared performance, as it's not a bottleneck for me. A 70mb file took a few seconds. Localsend could very well be faster, being a native app.

That's not a value proposition. That's more of a definition :-P

I'm thinking things along the lines of privacy, security, speed, etc

What's the value prop of running your own instance vs just using pairdrop.net infra itself?

https://pairdrop.net

I've tried all the options in this thread but only discovered pairdrop 20 minutes ago (thanks to this thread) and it's by far the best option.

I've been using localsend, mostly without issues. This thread has made me discover pairdrop.net and I have to say it's miles better. I've switched all my devices over now. The iOS integration with the provided shortcut + permanent pairing, in particular, is really good.

I must be in the minority here, but I feel YouTube provides enough value that it's worth paying for to get rid of ads.

Right, in which case passkeys would be equally secure. But if you DO memorize the password (for example for your most sensitive account), then it feels like traditional 2FA is more secure.

That being said passkeys win if you also take convenience into account. I've updated my original comment with convenience scores to reflect that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it fair to say that passkeys secured on your phone are more secure than 1FA (password) but less secure than "traditional" 2FA?

   Passkey 2FA: unlock your phone and the passkey on your phone can log you in.

   Traditional 2FA: remember a password AND unlock your phone (where your TOTP is stored) and you can login
If I were to rate all 3 methods on a scale of 1 to 10, for convenience and security, I'd say:

     Method       Convenience   Security       

  Password only:      4/10        2/10

  Passkey 2FA:        9/10        8/10

  Traditional 2FA:    6/10        9/10
Fair?

Would this work as a tool to sync a central server's parts of your postgres data to your distributed webapp backends local-copy, as opposed to all the way to user front-end. i.e. nodejs instead of the browser.

Or is there a better tool for that?

I wonder if there's been a scientific study that tries to correlate the tone of a statement, with its reliability.

My gut feel is that such emotionally charged statements are likely inversely correlated with accuracy.

I'm surprised this is the twitter account of a reputable organization.

I have found LLMs quite useful in fighting procrastination.

For myself, procrastination is usually caused by the fear of how painful it is to get up and running on a new project or task.

Asking an LLM to start the work gets the annoying bits out of the way.

Even if it does most of it incorrectly, at least you've built momentum, and then you can take over from there.

There is something comforting about how ChatGPT never becomes overly emotional. I'm not surprised it outperforms humans in bedside manner except for occasions where the human is particularly adept.
