I use Bitwarden. I need none of the convenience of passkeys, and I am able to login on a third system just by hand-copying a password, which I cannot do with passkeys. So why should I prefer passkeys anyway?
Passkeys have some benefits, but the major reason they exist is vendor lock-in.
The main reason they exist is that the vast majority of people don't create secure passwords and 2FA isn't always reliable. Passkeys may not be for someone like you (and me).
The housing market in San Francisco is very much not free. Most areas are single family zoned so you are not allowed to build apartments (which are very much needed to meet demand), and extensive approvals are required to build anything.

Although it is true that the problem of excessive bureaucracy is not exclusive to Europe and very common in the US too.
Streaming multiprocessors. That's the reason. Nvidia has an extremely complex SM architecture that CUDA is based off of and AMD/Apple focus on simpler ones because they thought it was more power efficient (oops, it's less power efficient: https://browser.geekbench.com/opencl-benchmarks)
This is such a surface-level factor in the discussion that I don't even know why you'd be offering your advice on Nvidia if you can't tell why people own their hardware in the first place. We've been having this GPGPU discussion for like 12 years at this point... people insisting on their opinions without understanding what Nvidia does is how we got in this mess in the first place.
You're talking about a market where the ASP for AMD is like 450 bucks and NV has 10x the market share at a 50-60% higher ASP. Then you look at Intel Arc, which has an ASP somewhere in the 200 bucks range. I don't think these market shares are primarily dictated by economics and the commodified properties of GPUs (compute power etc.), but rather different things, like software.
In any case, AMD is clearly focusing on data center applications and is starting to enjoy some inroads there.
AMD cutting prices won't affect the biggest thing: CUDA is the software basis of machine learning, and creates an effective hardware manufacturer monopoly. You have to buy Nvidia, to get a good CUDA experience.
A lot of people can afford nannies. I think it’s more that parents want to raise their kids really well. As opposed to, “what happens, happens.” So naturally you want to do that yourself.
I don't know about that - seems like US is close to half of Tiktok revenue: "TikTok took in an estimated $10 billion in revenue in the United States last year, he said, out of a total global revenue estimated at $20 billion to $26 billion." [1]
US market isn't likely to grow much going forward though, while developing countries have a lot of growth potential. Meanwhile, TikTok is bringing in at least 10bln annually already. Pure profit isn't the only thing that makes it valuable though, it's one of the few global media platforms that's not owned by the US.
No definitely safer per hour. "In 2022, the fatality rate for people traveling by air was . 003 deaths per 100 million miles traveled. The death rate people in passenger cars and trucks on US highways was 0.57 per 100 million miles." [1]
Adjusting for a speed difference of 10x it's 0.03 for planes and 0.57 for cars. Which makes sense - it's pretty easy to crash a car, and much harder to crash a plane (there's not much to crash into in the air).
The article is about them collecting interest a couple weeks ago on the 400th anniversary? They clearly are keeping it going, just only collecting interest irregularly at PR milestones.
This is actually for lack of RAM reasons - 15 pro and above have 8gb RAM which is enough to fit 3-4gb models locally with room to spare for rest of the applications. The 13 pro max has 6gb of RAM which is not enough.
