Your argument would be far more charitable if NIST had not already been caught pushing a broken standard at the behest of the NSA before. DJB might be combative and somewhat caustic, but the one thing he's never been,…
The problem with attempting to provide universal healthcare in the united states is that, despite health professionals attesting to the necessity and validity of certain health related topics, the current administration…
This feels like a strange take to me. With the internet, it has never been easier for people anywhere in the (connected) world to find an audience, which we've seen to great and detrimental effects. Prior to this,…

For a basic CRDT set, merge rules have to have some kind of temporality basis in the messages such that commutativity is preserved. usually it's a timestamp, sometimes it's an unforgeable value like a hash, e.g. A: {…

As you are someone building cryptographic libraries used by people all over the world, which includes those who might be seen as "enemies" by the organization in question, this is not a gradient — it's quite binary in…
I genuinely do not understand how someone working in the capacity that you do, for things that matter universally for people, can contend that an organization who is intentionally engaging in NOBUS backdoors can be…
It's insane to me that Stripe cancels accounts when they get used for card testing. I get that it's because the onus would be on them otherwise, but the problem is that the onus is on anyone but the card companies in…
How do you propose fixing the corruption?
PFS is valuable largely in stable, small groups that rarely change shape or association. PFS in an open, freely-associable environment is far more complicated when you move beyond even the smallest of group sizes.…
You can if the manufacturer has a track record that refutes the notion, and especially if they have verifiable hardware matching publicly disclosed circuit designs. But this is Intel, with their track record, I wouldn't…
Yes!
It's simple. Don't comply. Software engineers, despite not having the same requirement of mechanical engineers, should uphold the ethical obligations of their craft. This law is harmful. Given the requirement of…
This is funny as most Michelin star chefs I've had the luxury of knowing love fast food

I had the same confusion reading this – what kind of go-based webservice framework can you discretely deploy new handlers without restarts/redeploys? Would be a really awesome thing to have!
or you're working in embedded systems, machine learning, cryptography, or any other specialized field where being clever is very important
You would likely enjoy Isaac Asimov's "Profession": https://www.abelard.org/asimov.php
The hard part _includes_ the crypto and the sandboxing. Short of playing security theater games like "chuck it in a TEE", the moment your data needs any kind of processing, or possesses relationships with other users…
With things like kpatch you can even update the kernel without a reboot
XSLT is great, but its core problem is that the tooling is awful. And a lot of this has to do with the primary author of the XSLT specification, keeping a proprietary (and expensive) library as the main library that…
There's different proof constructions, but many are depending on recursive SNARKs. You basically have an execution harness prover (proves that the block of VM instructions and inputs were correct in producing the…
Does YC ever intend to revisit doing remote batches again? There's many founders in the country who are just as driven and motivated, but have real-world situations that cannot allow uprooting themselves for several…
