Where did you see 30 euros? If so that's quite good I think - I remember (a long time ago when I was researching air sensors) Honeywell's laser sensors were similarly priced. A low price point will absolutely help Bosch drive adoption.

Cool. So we could get air quality apps for the phone or smartwatch?

Might need to wait a few generations. It costs ~30€ for a single unit (maybe half that at volume?). And not waterproof.

Few additions.

open -n file.pdf : opens new instance of Preview application which is useful if you want to open the same file twice (for example to look at different pages at once).

caffeinate -d : prevents display turning off, useful if you want to look at display without moving mouse.

Does `open` give focus? It used to, but since a few releases ago the app opens in the background, which is pretty annoying.

My poor workaround is to use osascript: `tell application "System Events" to set frontmost of process "Finder" to true`

I knew that "passkey" had grown to refer to a set of different things. I can't say this upsets me, as it does sound like progress over the old status quo. Still, is confusing for those of us that bought in at the beginning.

The Yubico FAQ explains some of the history fairly well: https://www.yubico.com/blog/a-yubico-faq-about-passkeys/

In particular, they distinguish between "copyable" and "hardware-bound" passkeys. They're both passkeys, and can be used wherever passkeys are supported, but only the "hardware-bound" passkeys support attestation.
