simple. I'm gonna lose it for real

A Cryptography Engineer’s Perspective on Quantum Computing Timelines The risk that cryptographically-relevant quantum computers materialize within the next few years is now high enough to be dispositive, unfortunately.

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 is SUPER cool and I'm excited to see how it evolves.

Like, a huge part of the adoption strategy is remembering that you've lost people the moment you're marketing on the basis of the protocol, not the product. The same applies to LLMs - at this point, unless you're trying to impress an investor, surely you're better off just.. not mentioning it?

1000% this and it's perplexing that they ended up in this situation, because there's parallels here to the conversation around atproto itself!

I’ve posted it before, but it feels evergreen

The two hardest problems in Computer Science are

1. Human communication
2. Getting people in tech to believe that human communication is important

i've never regretted not booking a flight more. brilliant talks from brilliant people. #atmosphereconf

hello from remote, awesome talk! loved seeing the thoughts collected from others in the ecosystem as well

i'm continually mystified why otherwise smart people keep publishing llm-assisted essays. the bla IS the bla; it's not foo, it's bar. look this shit just sucks to read, pls stop this

Updated AI usage policy for contributions by mitchellh · Pull Request #10412 · ghostty-org/ghostty Follow up to #8289 The rise of agentic programming has eliminated the natural effort-based backpressure that previously limited low-effort contributions. It is now too easy to create large amounts ...

I think it's pretty clear this is one of many attempts at mitigating the effect of the slopocalyse plaguing open source projects right now. A low effort, low quality contribution is much more difficult to eliminate at a glance that it used to be.

(also as a heads up, looks like there's at least one Caddy binary in your git history somewhere that you might want to scrub, repo took a while to pull)

Reverse proxy | Forgejo – Beyond coding. We forge.

Should be a fairly simple change and would make it possible to use with any application supporting generic proxy auth, e.g. forgejo.org/docs/next/ad...

Was going to tinker with it myself but Tangled won't let me add an SSH key right now 😬

Thanks for doing this! Scanned through and noticed you're setting X-AtProto-* headers in the middleware but couldn't figure out if these fields are accessible via `http.auth.user`, as in: github.com/tailscale/ca...

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

hell yeah

now do github

Machine Gun #cavestory

It's on Roomy. Message me on Germ. It's literally on Streamplace. You can find it on Leaflet. Go to Eurosky. Use Tangled.

this is absolutely nuts

wait I've been looking for something like Vicinae for years

with all the deskilling and gell-manning (etc) we're gonna get from automated thinking machines, now is the time for the 'tools for thought' crowd to make tools that help you think things through for yourself.

tools to do *more* hard thinking.

it should feel effortful. cherish that feeling.

Woke 3.0 will have decentralized versions of all the apps you loved from Woke 2.0. But instead of relying on centralized gatekeepers, you can own and control your own identity via cryptography.

Omg no, you’re not going to make Anthropic into “resistance tech.” Nope nope nope

there's a cool crowdsourced project called ProtonDB that you can use if you're curious whether something runs or not!

no fucking way

this is funny in the same way as it would be funny to find that your melanoma had formed a perfect image of Nicolas Cage

adding social features to our websites
will accelerate atproto adoption faster than
building pure atproto apps

Code is liability. AI allows us to create tremendous amounts of liability very quickly

The increasingly common habit of screenshotting the AI summary of a Google search and presenting it as evidence must be nipped in the bud immediately. That is nothing. That is not anything, it is not a thing.
