We're commissioning ~€600,000 in work on critical structural improvements, security, maintenance, and documentation from @ApacheLog4j maintainers. Announcement: sovereigntechfund.de/news/lo… Milestones: sovereigntechfund.de/tech/lo…
No one is paying the log4j2 maintainers!? There is a whole page on the responsibilities of a @TheASF "Project Management Committee"... AND NO ONE IS PAYING THEM? apache.org/dev/pmc.html Open Source needs to grow the hell up. Yesterday. x.com/yazicivo/status/146934…

Special thanks to Filippo Valsorda for yesterday afternoon's talk on 'The job of a #GoLang maintainer.' We delved into what it means to become an independent professional open-source maintainer. @FiloSottile #GoLab2023 #MaintainerLife

Do you have a bunch of GPUs and passphrase bruteforcing experience? Crack the NSA’s five SHA-1 hashes at the heart of NIST's elliptic curves, solve a cryptographic mystery, and earn $8k (tripled if donated to charity)! words.filippo.io/dispatches/…

I updated words.filippo.io/dispatches/… to include a large list of potential target hashes based on the hypothesis that maybe instead of increasing a counter, the seed/hash itself was increased until a valid one was found. If you're running a cracking job, grab this list!

This is a great project from @FiloSottile: creating a bounty on cracking the original seed-phrases used to generate the NIST P-series of elliptic curves. words.filippo.io/dispatches/…

Calling for emergency help from the CPV @DEFCON community! We need to find and borrow a Canon EOS Rebel SL1 power adapter until tomorrow. Free t-shirt, stickers, and a much coveted Goldbug zine goes to our hero!

I can't fathom that I invested ten years of professional effort in this platform, and now most connections have been driven away, and the content is hidden from the Internet. techcrunch.com/2023/06/30/tw…

Don't get victim-blamey on me, there were no real alternatives to Twitter to build a career like I did with it. I know the spiel about open platforms. I also know that if their UX is bad people won't use them and you can't build a career on them. Twitter was special.

Anyway, I have a newsletter issue coming out soon, and have a small pile of Bluesky invites for anyone I know personally, through a trusted community, or through someone vouching. filippo.io/newsletter (It's about the AES-GCM mode I wish we had.)

A great demonstration. And, yes and yes, this will help reduce the smoke in an indoor environment and fairly quickly, too. Ask for a MERV-13 rated filter in the hardware store. (MERV-11 also works but less so).
Here’s how to build an air filter for about $30. All you need is a box fan and a furnace filter.

BREAKING: Military-style police in Atlanta invade a house to lock up 3 people in charge of a legal fund that helps "Cop City" protesters get bailed out of jail. This is a brazen assault on the US Constitution. The real crime here is being committed by the police.
