The tech is really hit or miss sometimes. I have a pump that used to panic error out on a misused bluetooth connection, forcing you to set it up again.

Eventually the app developers fixed it but, for something that’s supposed to run 24/7/365 without fail it really rubbed me the wrong way.

On a slightly tangential note, I am interested in working on something better although not hardware inclined, so please reach out to me at my username @tutamail.com if you are interested.

I have "type 1" diabetes for 27 years. I hear similar stories like this (revolutionary cure working on animal models) every year or two. Until now non of them worked. I hope this one will be beeter but my expectations are quite low.

I’d remove flagging or hiding on mobile unless you click on the post because it’s easy to accidentally do it.

- Resell concert tickets and/or other sought after goods on a larger scale?

- Get a few remote jobs?

There’s plenty of inefficiencies around us, you just have to look hard enough.

This seems inadequate to explain the removal of security keys. Unless Google inferred that OP was not just a garden variety intruder, but some sort of advanced persistent threat that had added such keys long ago?

Yep I don’t know what’s going on here. OP posted another reply with the time they added their keys and they aren't recent.

I think Google needs to add a better way to secure old / previously inactive accounts. My guess is because your account was old, and your current device, IP and overall fingerprint was different it decided you were an intruder.

Off-topic but what do you think they used here to render the UI. Qt?

I thought a great talk around this area was Engineering You by Martin Thompson [1]. He used the phrase the "era of Software Alchemy."
