Yikes! It is shocking that there are no checks to catch these types of errors at inception.

There are no technical or compliance reasons to double the size of symmetric keys in response to the threat of quantum computers. This common misunderstanding of Grover's algorithm risks wasting limited resources that should go towards deploying actually urgent post-quantum algorithms.

For decades, economists gave short shrift to the idea of monopsony — a power employers can have to suppress wages. Now a wave of research suggests it's everywhere, and a new book argues it's key to understanding today's inequality. n.pr/4e0RHRi

@rminnich.bsky.social did this cause any issues for the #plan9 port too?

“What I clearly see are people, who until now had no sympathy for the regime, siding with the Islamic republic – and thanking the IRGC for being the servant of territorial integrity,” said aninternational official living in Tehran.

@tinygo.org I created a few example file servers for PicoW. They use 9P protocol to expose devices as file system hierarchies. The can then be imported into Plan 9, or Linux, macOS/P9P. github.com/9nut/picow_9...

Making a prediction: #Epstein & #Trump were involved in #Russia #MoneyLaundering and not just #ChildSexTraffic . #Putin has #kompromat , but it would probably implicate him too (remember the #panamapapers?) It's the new #MAD doctrine.

Sounds familiar.

Anything to distract from the Trump-Epstein files.

It was @asharangappa.bsky.social who first put this idea in my head, but really starting to feel like they're gonna try to get Maduro to cop to some insane 2020 election conspiracy in exchange for leniency www.reuters.com/world/americ...

I'm protesting what #Trump is doing to the US in the easiest way possible: I have been cancelling my subscriptions to #bigtech. First #Amazon and now #AppleTV. It could be as effective as a #strike. It feels great!

Its whereabouts aren't publicly known, though it's believed to be in storage. n.pr/3YWyTJY

Online sleuths have tried to uncover who placed a winning bet on the Venezuelan leader's arrest to no avail. Still, prediction market watchers say the bet appears suspicious. n.pr/49F6A94

New research from the USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative shows that both podcast hosts and their guests skew very heavily male — and white.

The Global Sumud Flotilla, with Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela's grandson and European lawmakers aboard, includes some 50 boats and 500 activists and is carrying a symbolic amount of humanitarian aid.

Wow! #KashPatel is real #PoS. What an embarrassment!

Hidaya Al-Motawaq's son is a year and a half old and weighs less than 10 pounds. Doctors warn of permanent damage to children's health due to chronic malnutrition from Israel's earlier blockade.

We announced the new native Go FIPS 140-3 mode today! FIPS 140, like it or not, is often a requirement, and I was increasingly sad about large deployments replacing the Go crypto packages with non-memory safe cgo bindings. Go is now one of the easiest and most secure ways to build under FIPS 140.

Palestinians say Israeli forces killed scores of people trying to reach food aid in Khan Younis on Tuesday in the deadliest attack of recent weeks on hungry crowds attempting to get food in Gaza.

I've used #mkcert to create a local CA on my dev box. Server runs on dev box, but client is an IoT (Pi Pico). Parties need to mutually verify certs and both should be signed by the local CA. '-client' assumes local machine. Can mkcert do this? @filippo.abyssdomain.expert

We Americans were liberated from $6.4T of market value in our 401K retirements.

Yeah, about that... tailscale.com/blog/plan9-p... That gives the backstory :)

With 8 minutes to go, @damienmiller.bsky.social sends me the only funny April Fool's joke of the day. Notably because I was on the team of people writing the firewall rules for Rob Pike's plan 9 desktop at Google. @tailscale.com fixes it (albeit ten years too late).

With the abrupt shutdown of USAID funding, many clinics, including those serving women in remote areas, have shuttered. Midwives are reporting that mothers and babies are dying as a result.

Trump, whenever he is asked about his administration's illegal acts and f*ckups:

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.

The disgraceful #trump #whitehouse ambush of #zelensky was planned and shows how much power #putin has over Trump. The fact that #Tass was given access to the Oval office to broadcast it live proves it.

I am forever indebted to Daniel Bennett for how I can understand the world. I wish that I could have met him in person. He rejoined the infinite timeline today and as the saying goes, "now he belongs to the ages". #DanielDennett dailynous.com/2024/04/19/d...
