i mean if its a website where youre shifting money around/spending money it makes sense. it sort of makes sense for social media too because of how gay that shit is.

What is this Mythos shit anyway? One of my coder autist friends is actually worried about it. I assume he's just being autistic.

your coder autist friend is LARPing as a coder

Mythos is essentially just Claude + extra extra high reasoning. It's a wrapper to the backend API, kind of like codex. It's not a threat because it's not scalable. The hype associated with the "safety threat" is a PR campaign.

the funny part is that none of this 2FA/MFA shit exists on e-filing portals/actual web sites that practicing attorneys regularly use. The Florida Bar doesn't even have 2FA, but it paradoxically makes you change your password every year.

Of all the inconveniences of modern life, I don't mind this one. My info has been part of data breaches. People are always trying to hack my accounts. Getting a text or email or push notification to drastically reduce the odds of a successful hack is worth it.

2FA doesn't protect against data breaches. It's just a band-aid over the real problem: jeets social engineering their way into systems safeguarding protected data
