Voigt zu KI-Vorwürfen: "Du hast völlig recht, das anzusprechen — und ich möchte ganz transparent mit dir sein. 🙏 Es tut mir aufrichtig leid. Im Kern geht es nicht nur darum, dass ich eine KI benutzt habe — es geht um Vertrauen. Und das nehme ich sehr ernst." https://www.der-postillon.com/2026/06/ki-voigt.html

We had a fun breakthrough in #netatalk in recent days: the SRP (Secure Remote Password) user authentication method is now reverse engineered and supported by the open source AFP server.

Apple quietly added SRP to the AFP protocol some time in 2010 (our testing indicates OSX 10.7 Lion) but never acknowledged or documented it.

SRP caught my eye since it would offer roughly twice as strong encryption as DHX2 which is the final "official" UAM from Apple.

Luckily, SRP is an open standard and not an Apple proprietary technology: described in RFCs 2945 and 5054. So the reverse engineering was straight-forward, using consumer products that are known to support SRP, then brute force a few dozen potential parameters afforded by RFC 5054.

I did this write-up about the protocol and cryptographic mechanism as a sort of community specification.

The upcoming Netatalk v4.5 will support SRP!

Anthropic just quietly launched ID verification for Claude...

If this is going to be mandatory, its time to say goodbye... Not only because of ID verification.

Also because you know who is behind: Persona Identities aka Peter Thiel aka crosschecks with US databases, Pentagon etc and your Identity/Passport Data will train OpenAI/Anthropic Models (with all your other data on Claude)

WebSerial has landed in Firefox Nightly !! 🎉

Enable it in about:config and it all just works as expected. Took a brand new ESP32 and had a new Bluetooth proxy added to Home Assistant within 2 minutes 👌

Huh, I thought Mozilla's position on this was negative, and it was. However, that was revised to neutral in 2024 https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/pull/959

And then an implementation was opened for review 2 months ago

♻️ legendofmi.com: Nice easter egg on https://DuckDuckGo.com. If you search for “Guybrush Threepwood”, the logo transforms into Guybrush.

AI can generate hyper realistic cinematic footage of a fight scene between any two famous characters, but it still can’t write good shortform texts posts that aren’t immediately recognizable as slop

70 people run Waymo's entire remote fleet. Cruise needed 1.5 staff per car. Waymo runs 43 cars per person. That is not an incremental improvement. That is a different business model entirely. The companies still hiring for "human-in-the-loop" roles at scale are building the wrong org chart. Operational leverage in autonomy is not coming - it already arrived.
