A not fun fact: I didn't get a security bounty for a macOS release that was done specifically to address an issue I found.

The rational was that I disclosed the issue publicly. Which I did after reporting it in the beta releases, and after they said “we're unable to identify an issue in your report”, AND AFTER THEY RELEASED THE FUCKING VULNERABILITY.

I have no energy/desire to argue with Apple, but this ain't a good look for a $3T company.

1200 armed Israeli civilians surround a Palestinian village in the west bank to burn it down.

Please remind me… who were the terrorists again?

@asymco interesting video about a new “e-bike” concept in rural areas (in French). The creator says the e-bike can do 200km with 1€ of electricity. Also, he reminds us that driving a 1.5 tonne vehicle to move a 80kg passenger is nonsensical as 95% of the fuel cost are used to move the vehicle, not the passenger. The video shows that this concept could help better commute in rural areas (as he says, urban cities have transportation alternatives but not rural areas…)

“CEO Jim McNerney…repeatedly invoked a slur…Those who cared too much about the integrity of the planes and not enough about the stock price were “phenomenally talented assholes,” and he encouraged his deputies to ostracize them into leaving…He initially refused to let nearly any of these talented assholes work on the 787 Dreamliner, instead outsourcing…development…The plan would save money while busting unions, a win-win, he promised investors.”

The American Prospect

Not just states if Trump slips inside the White House, it would be America period.

We will stop him in November.

Apple is deploying post-quantum cryptography in iMessage. Full replacement of encryption systems. My comments in @wired about quantum computers and the risk/threat. Sadly, most quantum risk advice given to C-level boards is pretty poor. https://www.wired.com/story/apple-pq3-post-quantum-encryption/
Apple iOS 17.4: iMessage Gets Post-Quantum Encryption in New Update

Useful quantum computers aren’t a reality—yet. But in one of the biggest deployments of post-quantum encryption so far, Apple is bringing the technology to iMessage.

If armed citizens make us safer, why do they use metal detectors at Trump rallies?

Simple point. Kansas City shooting.

The shooting lasted less than two minutes. There were HUNDREDS of armed and trained police officers ONSITE at this shooting.

And STILL 22 people were shot and 7 have life threatening injuries, with at least one person killed.

Clearly a “good guy with a gun” is NOT a solution to these mass shootings.
