*very* striking to me that trump's two big losses at SCOUTS--first the fed, now tariffs--are both about core macroeconomic institutions, namely free trade and an independent central bank. "go nuts on culture, go nuts on immigration, but DO NOT TOUCH the neoliberal consensus"

My friends, if Amazon, with all its governance and change control, is getting these kinds of outcomes, (respectfully) you have no chance.

1990s: you can inject code into data, but you need to learn assembly plus stack/heap management
2000s: you can inject code into data, and you only need to learn some Javascript
The future: can you read and write? Excellent, you're good to go.

The year is 2893 and infosec professionals have gathered yet again for the largest event in the industry: KuiperCon.
Humans and humanoid AIs crowd the main hall, and greet the panelists with thunderous applause. The topic today is "Separating instructions from data. A solution is finally in sight?"

Absolutely unreal: I found a fifth bug in libcrux, this time in its PSQ implementation that would allow a denial of service via a malcrafted AES-GCM ciphertext.

I couldn't submit my PR: Cryspen blocked me after I submitted my first four PRs, which included a fix for a critical nonce reuse bug.

Looks like someone built a tool to check your LinkedIn network for names from the Epstein documents. Soon I expect other tools will follow to work with other social media platforms. This is what the beginning of what community accountability looks like. Just because the legal system is captured […]

Economics of Orbital vs Terrestrial Data Centers

Interested in a rational discussion about the economics of orbital datacenters? Make some hypotheses (e.g.: launch cost, sunlight fraction, GPU degradation, etc.) and compare orbital vs terrestrial.

Code is public. Amazing work. Kudos.

Child of a Holocaust survivor, here. Please continue to use Anne Frank as a comparison point for what ICE/CBP is doing in Minneapolis. It is an entirely apt and appropriate comparison.

Thanks.
