openPGP SKS Keyserver Network Under Attackquote:The software is Byzantine. The standard keyserver software is called SKS, for "Synchronizing Key Server". A bright fellow named Yaron Minsky devised a brilliant algorithm that could do reconciliations very quickly. It became the keystone of his Ph.D thesis, and he wrote SKS originally as a proof of concept of his idea. It's written in an unusual programming language called OCaml, and in a fairly idiosyncratic dialect of it at that. This is of course no problem for a proof of concept meant to support a Ph.D thesis, but for software that's deployed in the field it makes maintenance quite difficult. Not only do we need to be bright enough to understand an algorithm that's literally someone's Ph.D thesis, but we need expertise in obscure programming languages and strange programming customs.

not sure if this is some joke that's 43% beyond my level or not, but when talking about artificial pancreas, insulin pumps, etc., closed loop is used to mean an insulin pump capable of not only automatically responding and adjusting to highs and variation in glucose levels over a day, but also automatically responding to food/digestion and injecting the appropriate amount of insulin, like how a pancreas does in someone without an autoimmune disease. this will be probably the biggest gain since the insulin pump itself when developed, so people calling current insulin pumps artificial pancreases is probably just residual from marketing from shitheads like Medtronic

also if you're doing regular videocalls in the office it is worth it picking up a cheap logitech webcam and placing it properly. they vastly outperform whatever you get builtin, for both checking your nostrils and playacting being the smoking man.

CmdrRiker posted:So, is this the new normal now? Rotating keys more frequently? I'm scared and don't understand. it's not an attack on the keys, it's a DoS attack on GnuPG by feeding it a hundred thousand signatures to verify each time it tries to use a targeted certificate for any reason the op of that gist is really really "i wish you get hit by a bus" mad because he hasn't done anything about garbage signature flooding in a decade so they did it to his key as motivation lots of "think of the chinese dissidents" garbage that is summed up as "i told them to use this known-broken software for years and now the state can target them so my self-loathing needs a target that's not me" in fact most of it is dodging blame "i don't know a beginners programming language that the core of the project i maintain is written in, so i just don't touch it" "why did the EFF pay for a proof of concept attack against our proof-of-concept service " "it's just too hard to upgrade a few dozen servers, it's not trivial like every single webserver in the world or every access point ever made when flaws were found in SSL and WEP!"

Oh, sure, "academic freedom" and "it was about research". I don't know if Micah's trollwot toolkit was used in the most recent attacks. I know that if I was writing an attack tool that's where I'd start from.

"why does my software have to be legal?" may have influenced the guy defending the 17 illegal numbersquote:We ignored them, which was the right thing to do. You don't let people who don't understand problems dictate which problems will be solved. i posted about this in the gray thread as well so not going to quote all the astounding levels of out-of-touch histrionics to be found, but it's pretty bad quote:I tremble with fear for how people I know in hostile regimes are currently at risk of having their tools broken — and then I look at the preening self-righteousness of those louts who feel entitled to burn things down just to make a point. it's the cries of a late-90s overly trusting protocol being shown the harsh realities of modern computing. if that sounds familiar, it's because of the brilliant idea to exit(0) for specifically-crafted forged messages so everyone integrating with them had to special-case the check for a localized version of the warning it spit out along with the forged message, then blamed everyone else for using their software

GnuPG is fine for the things most people actually use it for but the whole web of trust thing is dumb so it's unsurprising that someone maintaining the keyserver software would be delusional.

If you're talking about how they're incompetent and take forever to implement the things they've promised then actually the game is out and you can play it right now! If you're talking about how the thing they've released is buggy as poo poo and laughably incomplete compared to what they've promised then actually it's just a test build, the game isn't released yet and it will be awesome when it is.
