There is a lot of demand for digital privacy and security advice out there right now and lots of people are giving advice and writing guides. I beg them to do a few things:

1. Be explicit about the threat model your advice is meant for.

rust isnt special. you know what else is memory safe. a beautiful forest stream

The secret to good #vibe #coding is to add the following line to every prompt:

Good vibes ONLY.

You don't want bad vibes in "your" code.

Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog This paper presents implementations that match and, where possible, exceed current quantum factorisation records using a VIC-20 8-bit home computer from 1981, an abacus, and a dog. We hope that this ...

One of my students sent me the latest quantum factorization record, and I have to admit: I’m shook. eprint.iacr.org/2025/1237

Coincidence?

What about hsearch(3)

Figured out that you can reverse any key derivation just by integrating instead.

Did I break crypto?

It's called doubleplusC these days. C++ is so oldspeak.

the “C” in “CPU” stands for the C Programming Language. CPUs are called that because they are a hardware implementation of the C Abstract Machine as specified by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 14.

With unfathomable levels of gratitude, Nate Anderson (P.S. If you are chasing something you think you want or need, or are doubting whether you are enough, take a minute and give this a listen. It had a big impact on me at a pivotal time.)

What's Meta doing with the internal protest, censoring it on workchat or just adding "community engagement notes"?

My new C programming book is slowly taking shape. If you want to learn along, let's start with the basics of control flow:

The bug is still present, in your time, as it was in ours.

The corruption is in a particular location... it increases towards a center... the center of memory corruption is here... of a particular size and shape, and layers of abstraction below us.

What is here is unsafe and out of bounds. This message is a warning about memory corruption.

This is not a place of honor.

No highly esteemed bytes are commemorated here.

“Ah,’ said Arthur, who — for reasons which are unlikely to become clear — found himself in attendance at a C++ committee meeting, ‘this is obviously some strange usage of the word safe that I wasn’t previously aware of.”

Scooter only goes on the train.
