“No person ever audits the same code twice. For it is not the same code, and you are not the same person.” (In response to accidentally checking out a slightly older version of code for a vuln, but the older version didn’t have the vuln, it was added in a newer version…)

You know what, British Museum cataloguer? Maybe this artist was doing their best. Maybe it was their first go at dolphins. Maybe they've never even SEEN a dolphin up close. Maybe painting dolphins onto a pot is harder than it looks. God, everyone's a critic.

Want to get into || improve in vulnerability research & exploit dev? My suggestions: 1.Pick a recent CVE in an open source target that interests you 2. Study the code until you thoroughly understand the issue (write it up) 3. Write a repro PoC 4. Try to write an exploit for it 🧵

When the Bank of England forecasts depression, does it factor into the forecast the impact of a forecast by the Bank of England predicting depression? I try to un-muddle our relationship with forecasting.

Superforecasting will not save us - Engelsberg ideas

The value of forecasts lies in how they help us shape the future. We should prioritise understanding what we can do.

Can a new form of cryptography solve the internet’s privacy problem?

Techniques which allow the sharing of data whilst keeping it secure may revolutionise fields from healthcare to law enforcement

Elon Musk Sucks Goats

Why Twitter's 2023 revenue had imploded on word of the takeover before Musk even completed it:

Thread by @GoAngelo on Thread Reader App

@GoAngelo: 1/ There is some pretty substantial context about Twitter’s 2023 revenue and advertisers that I think partly help explains why Musk is really losing it... And it involves upfront ad sales. Let me explain....…

@SarahTaber_bww I note that the acquisition and sudden implosion of freenode is a great model for understanding twitter's takeover, but mostly only open source guys noticed: see lwn.net/Articles/85654… and lwn.net/Articles/85714… and theregister.com/2021/05/26/fre… and so on.

After staff revolt, Freenode management takes over hundreds of IRC channels for ‘policy violations’
