Soatok Dreamseeker
soatok@furry.engineerBelieve it or not, there is still plenty of interesting and exciting work to talk about that doesn't involve LLMs.
Cryptographers contributing to the IETF is working to standardize FROST, a two-round threshold signature algorithm based on Schnorr proofs, which is backwards compatible with Ed25519.
This means it will soon be possible to generate Ed25519 signatures from, for example, 4-of-7 shares held by independent parties. And the verifier doesn't need to do anything different; it's just an Ed25519 signature to them.
That's cool as fuck.
There's little-to-no hype about it.

stilgherrian@eigenmagic.netMy attention has been drawn to this packaging design from HP, which presumably someone approved.

All sound roughly the same, but are all dramatically different kinds of encounters.

Codeberg.org
Codeberg@social.anoxinon.deWe investigated performance degradation due to excessive crawling of Codeberg.
We often trace back such things to company websites that proudly list their key investors - but don't actually explain what they are doing (or why they need to crawl Codeberg more excessively than the crawlers of the major search engines combined).
It's probably not a use case we believe in anyway, so we blocked several large IP ranges today.
