the real extreme programming is cutting releases on Fridays.

Cal’s security concerns strike me as a skill issue (I say this as a customer!). If LLMs make it easy to find vulns, they also make it cheap to red-team your own codebase.
I don’t think you’re wrong at all. (Goodness it’s hard to be subtle on the social web!). OSS was hard to monetize before, and write-only code def makes it harder. I’m just now sure how much. Degree of severity will def impact long term viability.
my guy we out here tryin'. The more I look at it, the more I think we've mixed up some orthogonal axes: It's not open vs closed, it's product vs library.
Eg: it's possible to make an open source project that is also a product, but to do that it needs to be more than a software library.
If you're wondering why iroh 1.0 is taking a minute it's because this is the viewer we needed to build to make sense of the logs. And yes, there is a spec for the log format, which we also had to implement
Real infrastructure takes time, and we're very, very close
Great rundown from teammate @frando.bsky.social on why QUIC & p2p connections go together like peas and carrots. Also s/o Internet Archive. The disambiguation of p2p alone is worth a watch

People often look at ornate, 300 year-old marble buildings carved by hand from & ask "why can't we make buildings like that anymore?"
WHY CAN'T WE MAKE WEBSITES THAT WORK ANYMORE!?
oh lol nm, @chadfowler.com already built it: @freeq.at

relevant substack from one of the authors that acknowledges that BLAKE3 is not a NIST standard:
Some relevant history here @mosh.bsky.social: BLAKE was very close to being chosen as SHA-3, but lost out in the end. Making wild assumptions from the outside, this might have soured the team's interest
When you say RFC do you mean W3C RFC, IETF, or both?
@fredagain.org 's attitude toward the world continues to be such a positive day-to-day force in for me.
Saw the USB002 tour in New York, still have the sticker on my phone case. Having this set to listen to helps re-conjour the elation of caribou playing 1 thing by amerie 😁
Two papers came out last week that suggest classical asymmetric cryptography might indeed be broken by quantum computers in just a few years.
That means we need to ship post-quantum crypto now, with the tools we have: ML-KEM and ML-DSA. I didn't think PQ auth was so urgent until recently.

This literally took two of our team members over a year. Mutlipath is *hard*

she's more than welcome to commiserate with my partner
@pfrazee.com Beaker rides again:
firsthand understanding always wins 😊
latest video: iroh is growing support for streaming video (via MoQ), and doing it on lower power hardware at the same time 😊

It's always great to chat with other folks who deal with all the ways that atoms and bits interact. @sunshowers.io and @oxide.computer have thought longer and harder about these problems than most, here they are in conversation with our infrastructure lead, Justin Moore.
