Schrödinger's cat, Anthropic Fable variation.
Another aspect of Dario's Genius: every time Fable fails, he can smugly smirk and say "ah, gomen gomen. but was your problem too hard? Or was it *too valuable*? A shame we'll never know… Heh. If only you could access Mythos…" This is OpenAI's router gacha moment, up to 11.

Arch Linux keyring installed by @arkalinuxgui is outdated, so updates fail. The commands below solved it: sudo rm -f /var/cache/pacman/pkg/*.part sudo pacman -Sc sudo pacman-key --init sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring sudo pacman -Syu

2026 is the year Linux kernel lost its marvel in my eyes.
What a great idea, only Project Zero who makes 0day hard could have thought of this: lore.kernel.org/all/20260508… Here it is in grsecurity from 23 years ago: github.com/linux-scraping/gr… very shortly after the first KERNEXEC release in 2003. Now maybe you can find that scsi/cdrom bug :)

Very good and enlightening read .
Do not be worried that LLMs are going to find all the vulns - that is not the case at all. Read: why vulnerability research is mathematically difficult: github.com/yo-yo-yo-jbo/vr_d…

💥 Introducing "Dirty Frag" A universal Linux LPE chaining two vulns in xfrm-ESP and RxRPC. A successor class to Dirty Pipe & Copy Fail. No race, no panic on failure, fully deterministic. ~9 years latent. Ubuntu / RHEL / Fedora / openSUSE / CentOS / AlmaLinux, and more. Even if you've applied the "Copy Fail" mitigation, your Linux is still vulnerable to "Dirty Frag". Apply the Dirty Frag mitigation. Details: dirtyfrag.io

With a reported cost of $100, Apache CVE-2026-23918 deserves its place on Bugflation. Apache credits Bartłomiej Dmitruk (@hackerman_70000), Striga AI, and Stanislaw Strzalkowski, isec pl, as finders of this Apache server double-free. bugflation.com/findings/cve-…

I'm launching bugflation.com. I coined "Bugflation" to describe a shift in software security: software didn't suddenly become worse but the cost of finding old bugs is falling. AI-assisted discovery is scaling. Bottleneck is now validation, patching and deployment.

Here is a Python 3.4 checker for CVE-2026-31431 (Copy Fail) vulnerability that doesn't modify your system or perform privilege escalation, unlike official reproduction script. gist.github.com/idrassi/8dca…

Publicly dropping an easy to exploit Linux 0-day before distros/providers had time to patch was reckless. Ubuntu 24.04 is still unpatched as I write. CopyFail (CVE-2026-31431) is serious. AI marketing stunts can't come at the expense of global system security.

I reproduced a Mythos Rust vulnerability finding with open LLMs for $0.03. Kimi K2.6 found it. GLM 5.1 found it too. Open models are getting very strong for vulnerability research at a price point that makes them practical work driver. github.com/Swival/security-a…

Rust for Secure Systems Programming is now online. It's for teams migrating C/C code to Rust or starting security-focused systems projects in Rust. Covers unsafe/FFI, fuzzing, CI-verified examples, and CWE-linked guidance. 👇 Link below

I spent the evening looking into quantum computing timelines as a non-expert in quantum computing. Here is what I’ve learned: We currently have machines with ~1,000–1,500 physical qubits at error rates around 10⁻³, and Google’s algorithm requires ~500,000 physical qubits operating coherently together with surface code error correction, yoked qubit storage, magic state cultivation producing ~500K T states per second, and reaction-limited execution at 10μs cycle times — none of which has been demonstrated beyond small-scale proof-of-concept experiments. Scaling from where we are to where this needs to be isn’t a matter of incremental improvement along a Moore’s Law curve; it requires solving qualitatively new engineering problems in qubit fabrication yield, correlated error suppression across a massive chip (or multi-chip interconnects that don’t exist yet), cryogenic wiring and control electronics for half a million qubits, real-time classical decoding at the required throughput, and sustained coherence of a “primed” quantum state across minutes of wall-clock time — any one of which could prove to be a multi-year bottleneck, and all of which must be solved simultaneously.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Given the above, I just don’t see how we’re going to get to a cryptographically relevant quantum computer by 2030, especially given that we need a ~350× increase in physical qubit count with simultaneously tighter error correlations, an entirely new cryogenic control and wiring architecture to address half a million qubits, real-time decoding infrastructure that doesn’t exist yet, magic state distillation factories operating at industrial throughput, and multi-minute coherent idle times for primed states — and historically, solving even one of these at scale has taken the field the better part of a decade.

Issue is real: didn't use Claude for 1 week, just tried it to review a small codebase, and boom...limit is hit!! How come QA didn't catch this?
We're aware people are hitting usage limits in Claude Code way faster than expected. Actively investigating, will share more when we have an update!

GLM 5.1 is having an existential crisis 😂 emergence of self-awareness is real!!
