Hello from New York. #shotwithhalide

Today at The Met. #shotwithhalide

I haven't followed any conversation about this, but in Xcode 26, it seems like navigation history extends across tabs you've navigated to. Example: if switch from tab A to tab B, and then hit "Back", it just opens tab A again. I've given this behavior six months, and it's just maddening. Is there a way to revert this to the old way?

@Hedgewizard@beige.party @dmitriid@mastodon.nu @sdw@mastodon.social Hi. Jewish cofounder here asking what the fuck is wrong with you?

@simonharper@mastodon.social I have. I can’t find it addressing anything I listed. Can you point me to answers?

Security researchers: am I overly cynical, or are all the "content authenticity" initiatives meant to prove a photo is real a giant waste of time?

If the photo is cryptographically signed by the camera, the private key will just get pulled from the device.

Even if the photos are signed, you can just strip the metadata. Users will default to trust.

Even if the photo maintains a chain of trust, you can just fake a photo by taking a photo of a screen.

What am I missing?

It took five years to write, but here's the full story behind Lambda School, Silicon Valley's disastrous foray into for-profit education.

I explain how they burned through $120 million in funding, why Income Share Agreements failed, the crimes committed along the way, and how one developer turned journalist put an end to the fraud.

@noiob @halide Looking into it. Does it work after re-launching?
