Saw my first quantum computer during the tour of Calcul Québec at ÉTS. It's not quite operational, but pretty cool nonetheless.

This AP tweet is an instant candidate for the Museum of American Fascism. Carve it in stone and put it over the entrance. It should be an enduring source of burning shame and embarrassment for the entire organization, as well as a warning to other media.

Everyone talks about the Tooth Fairy, but nobody ever mentions her elderly aunt, the Root Canal Banshee.

Believe 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.

LOL, I think my fake "Flooring Inspector" title on LinkedIn is starting to confuse bots.

Except it's Guybrush, not Gregory, you fools.

@lkundrak I guess I could have copy-pasted that "Actually, what you call Linux" diatribe as response, but that would have been outright snarky.

I know, I know, I'm trolling, but if call yourself a "Senior IT Security Engineer," you really shouldn't be emailing helpdesk with such questions.

My attention has been drawn to this packaging design from HP, which presumably someone approved.

My umpire wrist guard had too much velcro, so I got a patch to go on it.

Happy Pride!

@SRAZKVT There are two wolves at the heart of this problem -- one is a quest to remain decentralized and resilient to single-points-of-failure, and another an effort to lower the barrier for entry. It is super difficult to get any sort of yin-yang balance here, unfortunately.

That said, have you looked at https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/overview.html ?
