Native Secure Enclave backed ssh keys on MacOS

It turns out that MacOS Tahoe can generate and use secure-enclave backed SSH keys! This replaces projects like https://github.com/maxgoedjen/secretive

There is a shared library /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib that traditionally has been used to add smartcard support to ssh by implementing PKCS11Provider interface. However since recently it also implements SecurityKeyProivder which supports loading keys directly from the secure enclave! SecurityKeyProvider is what is normally used to talk to FIDO2 devices (e.g. libfido2 can be used to talk to your Yubikey). However you can now use it to talk to your Secure Enclave instead!

Extracting financial disclosure reports and police blotter narratives using OpenAI's Structured Output

tl;dr this demo shows how to call OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model, provide it with URL of a screenshot of a document, and extract data that follows a schema you define. The results are pretty solid even with little effort in defining the data — and no effort doing data prep. OpenAI's API could be a cost-efficient tool for large scale data gathering projects involving public documents.

OpenAI announced Structured Outputs for its API, a feature that allows users to specify the fields and schema of extracted data, and guarantees that the JSON output will follow that specification.

For example, given a Congressional financial disclosure report, with assets defined in a table like this:

NOTE

by the time you're reading this, this probably no longer works since the policy has been removed. I reccomend you to check out https://github.com/r58Playz/uBlock-mv3 instead

How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

google's manifest v3 has no analouge to the webRequestBlocking API, which is neccesary for (effective) adblockers to work
starting in chrome version 127, the transition to mv3 will start cutting off the use of mv2 extensions alltogether
this will inevitably piss of enterprises when their extensions don't work, so the ExtensionManifestV2Availability key was added and will presumably stay forever after enterprises complain enough

You can use this as a regular user, which will let you keep your mv2 extensions even after they're supposed to stop working
