My grandmother has type 1 diabetes and manages it primarily with diet and exercise. It's worked quite well for her for over 50 years. She's in her 80's now is going strong.
Except part of this patent is to specifically stop reflections. Or you'd end up with overhead lights and the main screen making the keyboard hard to read.
Now that I've typed that out, why the hell do you need to read a keyboard? You don't have eyes on your fingers unless you're Beetlejuice's mate.
Not entirely. The first 21 claims are based on a claim of the device having two display separated by a hinge. The last ones describe some kind of anti-reflective set up for an oled display, but it's in patent-speak so it's not very well described.
So pretty much the Optimus Tactus integrated in to a laptop with a bunch of polarizing filters to stop reflections. I guess in a laptop formfactor, you'd get a large reflection from the main screen on the keyboard.
That's why my credit card stays in my wallet next to my wallet ninja, that effectly blocks the NFC signal. I use my phone for NFC payments.
Simply reading a card with an RFID reader won't give you the expiry date or the CCV number. Reading it with a terminal will leave a trace back to the terminal owner.
How do you find the convience of $20 tranaction fees and 10+ minutes transaction confirmation times? Or you're not using bitcoin, but some other crypto "currency" that's about to fail?
At least some cards with chips store the card number on the chip unencrypted. In a previous job my keyboard had a card reader on it for reading certificates from ID cards. I played around with Java's smartcardio package and read my credit card. Saw the card number right there. Some also give out the number to NFC readers.
The bit that prevents fraud is not keeping the card number secret, it's signing tokens with asymmetric encryption. You can't read the private keys from the chip.
I have never seen a pump without a chip reader. Probably because I live in a modern country like New Zealand, where chip cards have been widespread for well over a decade. Some of them don't even have a magstripe reader. I did have a magstripe only card back in the 90 and early 2000's though.
cards are starting to get old now I use Android Pay. As far as the terminal is concerned, my phone is a Visa Paywave card.
While all the terminals in New Zealand support NFC, a lot of merchants don't have the option enabled as the transaction fees are lightly higher. Some don't accept credit cards at all, as debit cards have no transaction fees.
But then you need to run nodejs
No, that character I used is the unicode apostrophe character.
Unicode prime is 0x2032
I was going to paste in a unicode prime char alongside an apostrophe, but when I preview the post slashdot strips out the prime char.
What you've used in "Here’s" is the unicode right-single-quotation-mark char. https://www.fileformat.info/in...
Code x2019
I'm sorry but you're completely wrong.
What's wrong with using a regular unicode apostrophe?

What unicode char is OS X using? If it was using apostrophe, it would be perfectly fine.
Here it is again: '
He couldn't, on account of prior art
No, Apple copied the Essential PH-1, the original "notch phone".
Now all the Chinese phone manufacturers are copying the copier.
So you had a shitty doctor and in your view that makes the entire profession bad?
But if you quit being a fatty and lost weight, you wouldn't keep going to your doctor and he'd stop getting paid (by you or your insurance).

It doesn't really matter.
What matters is it will take a lot of money for a lawyer to answer the question.
The firewall at my office doesn't let me see that website due to "Adult Themes"
That just makes me want to see it more.

combined with rotation detection, if you accidentally put your laptop down upside down, no need to turn it over!
Your government isn't working hard to bypass iPhone security.
They just paid a private company to do it for them. Doesn't sound like they have any need to focus on it at all.
All cards have all the details on the back, except prepaid credit cards where the card number is printed on, not stamped.
The stamped numbers can be read from a photo of either side.

You don't need to clone the chip, all you need to do is damage it.
If a terminal fails to read the chip, it will accept a mag strip.
You'll probably have to swipe it - and be prompted to insert it, insert it - and be prompted to swipe due to read failure, then swipe it again
It may ask you to insert it multiple times before allowing a swipe.

oh.. and first smartphone NFC trial was by Innovision (at the time, a UK company), using a Nokia 6131 in the UK in 2007
Apple's first NFC equipt product, the iPhone 6 came out in 2014
First Android phone with NFC was the Nexus S in 2010
My first smartphone was an i-mate SP2 in 2004.
i-mate is an Irish company. It was built by HTC, a Taiwanese company.
Nokia, Philips and Sony invented NFC, none of which are American companies. One Finnish, one Dutch and one Japanese.
ARM is a UK company, which powers pretty much every smartphone ever.
Where is 'Murica in all this innovation?
If you ave a decent card issuer, using your card without the ccv should raise a fraud alert

Shift the risk. Make merchants with no chip capability liable for fraud.
