> when the user gets the message from their SSH software that says "Warning! This SSH fingerprint has changed" ... that would happen whether it is by password or by key.

You have already sent the password to the mitm already.

johanycon Mercury 3: Diffusion at scale

https://openrouter.ai/inception/mercury-3#performance

It seems the latency is not very good. Is this a temporary compute problem or is it inherent to diffusion?

johanycon Muse Spark Open

> a lot of the value is in the agent memory and there's no easy way to export that,

Can't speak for muse and grok bot. But all other agents like openclaw, Hermes simply store then add files and it's trivial to migrate to another agent. Just point the agent to it

johanycon Passkeys are not a trap

Yes. I use 1password and all those platforms are supported.

johanycon Passkeys are not a trap

> it could end up going to Google password manager, Samsung passWord manager, iCloud Keychain, or Windows Somethingorother.

Using all that is just asking for trouble. Turn all off except one.

johanycon Passkeys are not a trap

Not true. I just migrated from apple passwords to 1password. Including passkeys. It's pretty seamless.

johanycon Show HN: WallHop – 12ft.io is gone, so I built a replacement

I think there should be browser support where the user sets a dollar threshold to trigger payment confirmation. Below that threshold, the microtransaction is automatically authorized.

I think you hit the nail on the head here. The job switching process for foreigners should be easier.

So far I don't see evidence or explanation of the abuse in the comments. It seems it's abuse because they don't like it.

> paying them much less to do the same damn job.

Where is the proof of this? I constantly see comments like this with no proof. The h1b process requires the foreign worker to receive the prevailing wage.

> program to apply for green cards

The article is about green card applications. Not h1b sponsorship

> that is functionally the same as restricting Microsoft's access to H1-Bs since a future green card sponsorship is the reason many are there working for them on that visa.

That's quite a stretch. Only to some extent is true

> It's not uncommon to find job postings that are "H1B only".

Are you sure it means no citizens? That seems strange. I read that as if you need visa support, you should have h1b already.

How do you know they are fake?
