Ah wait, when I said “ P’ “ had the shortest title, I forgot this paper that Steinn Sigurðsson showed me. It’s titled “0”.
What is the funniest number in cryptography? 0. The reason is that for all x, x*0 = 0, i.e., the equation is always satisfied no matter what x is. This article discusses crypto bugs in four BLS signatures' libraries (ethereum/py ecc, supranational/blst, herumi/bls, sigp/milagro bls) that revolve around 0. Furthermore, we develop "splitting zero" attacks to show a weakness in the proof-of-possession aggregate signature scheme standardized in BLS RFC draft v4. Eth2 bug bounties program generously awarded $35,000 in total for the reported bugs.
J'adore l'idée d'un de mes collègues de demander aux élèves de créer des cartes postales. Ils écrivent non seulement le texte de la carte mais aussi celle permettant de décrire l'image à générer avec Midjourney. On voit là que les élèves écrivent deux fois plus. Littéralement.
Les élèves adorent ce jeu à la fois textuel et pictural notamment ce moment où l'image commence à apparaitre et progressivement à prendre forme. Le moment de choisir entre les 4 images est aussi un moment très apprécié.
Microsoft released copilot in Excel, and it is officially caught up with Google on the AI race.
Fantastic to watch.
Stop thinking of Twitter, TikTok, IG, (et al) as social media sites.
They are **Content Refineries.**
Like processed food manufacturers they take user content & extract the most addicting/engaging content. Brains eat it up but in an unhealthy “devour the whole bag of chips” way.
They make hyper-processed social media junk food.
Mastodon is more like a potluck. We're all bringing dishes. It's a mess. Kids are running all over. But we are, at least, real people sharing real things.
