I thought phone numbers and traditional telephone service would be dead by now. Instead, purely internet-based communication services often use them as an identifier.

Blockchain. It was an interesting poc, but it has yet to have a useful implementation apart from scams.

Religion
I kinda get it. Everyone needs something to look forwards too. Sadly, for some, there's only the idea of afterlife for that.

The oldest two mechanisms of authenticating on credit cards.
From oldest to newest, they are:
-
Printed data on card.
-
Magstrip (which basically has the same data in machine-readable form).
-
Smartcard chip with contacts.
-
Wireless.
The first two mechanisms hand over all the data required to impersonate the cardholder whenever used, which isn't very secure. Yes, there's value to keeping a mechanism around for a while to permit transition time, but we should have had tap-to-pay hardware on PCs and phones and the like a long time ago.

Young earth creationism
What I hate so much about that, is all the "evidence" just points to some near extinction level event that humans worldwide suffered.
And obviously for that to have happened, it means there had to be a lot more people.
Like, entire cities/tribes/whatever were wiped out everywhere, but some had individuals survive. Which explains how "the last two people" could have kids who just happen to later have spouses and kids of their own without any explanation for where the new people came from.
They were just outside of walking distance.
Over the 300,000 plus years anatomically modern humans have been on Earth, that's probably happened a bunch. Hell, we've had 2-3 actual ice ages over that span.
We don't know shit about 250k of those years.
