At this rate the articles will be impossible to view in a year

Super disappointing for me as someone who previously loved the clarity of that format

Also, just... drawing moral equivalence in a war of aggression where one country is trying to conquer another by force is, uh... bad.

Inadequate handwashing, raw meats being kept alongside prepared food, inadequate cleaning, inadequate refrigeration. Yikes.

All according to plan (my prediction that jj will be ascendant and Git slowly losing traction in 5 years) www.alilleybrinker.com/mini/jujutsu...

And if you're curious where things stand for some popular protocols, the Post-Quantum Cryptography Coalition maintains a tracker pqcc.org/learn-more/s...

Haha maybe not at that price, but I'll still dream!

Clicking through, the current status is that there's a submitted document to the IETF to adopt quantum-secure cryptography for DNSSEC, but the IETF has not officially taken it on. datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-fr...

Yup, adoption is ongoing

The effective newsletter writers I've seen have an independent affiliation that helps to separate out the incentives. For example, Steve Vladeck has a regular law newsletter, but he's also a law professor and practicing appellate attorney.

Yuuuup. At a news organization your ability to be directly influenced is blunted by the variety inherent in the total subscriber base of the publication; as a newsletter you directly see the line go up or down based on you specifically

Wow, cool Oxide ASCII art generator!

(For context, the QWG is the Quality Working Group. It’s the group that provides initial review and feedback on proposals to change the CVE schema, which then go to the CVE Board for a vote.)

This is a bit of how the sausage gets made, making an important format a lot of people use better. I’ve given some comments in the CVE QWG and in the public PR, and I hope Jon’s effort succeeds!

Yup! One benefit of few SKUs or even a single SKU for a product category is at Costco scale they become the supplier's largest buyer, so that supplier squeeze is powerful.

That specific line is hilarious because the hyperloop famously was vaporware Musk made up to help kill investment in real public transit

For anyone curious, the Post Quantum Cryptography Coalition maintains a tracker for different standards' migration efforts to post quantum cryptography: pqcc.org/learn-more/s...

Yeah, Rust doesn't have ad hoc polymorphism like Julia does, instead it has both parametric polymorphism (generics) and subtype polymorphism (lifetimes).

THIS. I've been a manager for 6 years now, and learning to chill out, be less structured, be more open to whatever my reports bring to a 1-on-1, and happy even if it's "just" relationship building by shooting the shit has made the meetings better and my connections with group members stronger.
comment in response to post
It’s antithetical to a relationship of trust and mutual respect. Your direct report becomes an object, a piece in a system that you’re there to optimize and control with impersonal efficiency.
comment in response to post
A central point to their thesis is that you can measure and infer things about your direct reports, and in fact that this would be more accurate and honest than actually meeting and talking to them.

Apple themselves promised a slew of Apple Intelligence features similar to this that they've still not shipped, and the common speculation is that this is due to pervasive prompt injection issues that no one has figured out how to solve. daringfireball.net/2025/03/some...

On more thinking, tef is right that for Kurt the value is that the blog post signals a strong pro-LLM stance for the company, which they deem as good as a signal to other businesses and to investors.

Absolutely agree, also insofar as LLM's make producing code easier, they also open the door to contributors who may be new to programming and unfamiliar with the social norms around contribution.
