Abstract: Reducing utilization of computational resources associated with providing predictions of resolutions to unknown computational errors via context-based historically derived resolutions to known errors may be facilitated. In some embodiments, update-information associated with an automation pipeline feature indicating an error may be received by a system.

The system may receive a set of messages from the third-party software-development platform indicating source code file-related information. The system may provide the context and the set of messages indicating source code file-related information to a machine learning model to generate a prediction indicating a resolution to the error.

Abstract: Conventional vehicle lifts typically operate at a standard speed that is statically configured for the system, which may result in vehicles that are below the weight rating for the lift being raised at the standard speed while the lift motor is capable of safely raising at greater speeds. A set of lift controls may be configured to determine the load on the motor by a vehicle of an unknown weight during operation at a standard lift speed and use such information to determine a potential speed that the motor may raise the vehicle at while staying within safe operational levels for the motor. One or more of a magnitude of electrical power drawn, a pressure generated by a hydraulic lifting, or a sensed vehicle weight may be used to provide an indication of load on the motor and/or a higher potential speed.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to generation of verifiable FIDO security keys based on hierarchically generated child keys from an extended security key pair, wherein the extended public key is stored on a verification server of the account issuing entity. In the described implementation, child FIDO key pair are hierarchically derived from an extended private/public key pair. A public key provided during a FIDO registration can be securely tied to a user identity based on verification of FIDO registration data by the issuing server using the corresponding extended public key. Accordingly, a FIDO public key is linked to a thoroughly vetted user identity, during the registration process, without an authentication action from the user. The disclosed systems and methods further enable a re-issued FIDO authenticator device to perform FIDO transactions with FIDO services previously registered against the replaced authenticator device.
