Performance tip of the day: use Float32 instead of Float. Turned this from unusable into almost usable. 😅

Interesting article on the stumbling blocks for passkeys: arstechnica.com/security/202...
Passkey technology is elegant, but it’s most definitely not usable security
Just in time for holiday tech-support sessions, here’s what to know about passkeys.

The big idea behind passkeys is that passwords are _fundamentally broken_ and that solution to the problem is not to layer on top of them, but to replace them. Offering “passkeys” as a second factor confuses people and puts a false ceiling on the potential benefits.

Hats off to the ad targeting team at Hulu. I was more engaged by the Sonic 3 ad in Spanish. Well played

I very highly recommend logging into your account and going to Settings > Data & Privacy > Personalized Shopping.

how do you all remember every UUID? I find it really hard. so I wrote them all down on every uuid dot com

the list has fast search across all 2^122 values (so you can find your favorites) - hoping to add some social features like "trending UUIDs" soon!

I’ve been writing reviews for PC gamer for a long time now. Today I gave out a 94 to Caves of Qud—the highest score I’ve ever given by far. I’m very proud of this review and I hope you’ll read it.

Seven years ago, I wrote my first feature for PC Gamer. A showcase of roguelikes that are reinventing the genre. One of those three was Caves of Qud.

It just left early access after many, MANY years in development. I loved it 7 years ago. I adore it now.

i have been imagining this world for years, and i want to make this game so people can go there and live many lives in it!

the game features whole-cloth, accessible design, deep mysteries, and a meticulous generated living world.

Do you have experience implementing passkeys on your org’s website or network? Have you supported passkey use for end users? Have you tested how passkeys sync/work across platforms or on different sites? If so, I’m eager to speak with you. Please DM me on Signal (DanArs.82) or here. Please boost.

If you do the Advent of Code in Swift you’ll definitely want a parsing library, and this one’s solid. I wish i could use it in Swift Playgrounds on iPad, but they don’t support building macros yet.
Are you participating in Advent of Code this year using Swift? Each challenge starts with parsing input data, and that's where our Swift Parsing library shines!

Check out how we built parsers for some of last year's problems and use it as inspiration for this year:
