Der Kongress des CCC ist und bleibt die skurrilste, unterhaltsamste und selbstorganierteste Großkonferenz, die es gibt.
Sie ist als unkommerzielles, politisches und wirkmächtiges Ereignis ein Leuchtturm dafür, was möglich ist, wenn Menschen sich verbünden und solidarisch etwas schaffen.
Gerade in Zeiten der faschistischen Bedrohung sind solche Zusammenkünfte und Orte unglaublich wichtig, weil sie Mut machen und Kraft spenden.
Danke, #39c3
@cliffle that's my favorite way to print a comma-separated list
switch (i = 0, count) for (; i < count; ++i) {
printf(", ");
default:
printf("%d", elements[i]);
case 0:;
}

Ed Zitron takes an axe to the AI bubble hype:
"ChatGPT is a very successful growth product and an absolutely horrifying business. OpenAI is a banana republic that cannot function on its own, it does not resemble Uber, Amazon Web Services, or any other business in the past other than WeWork, the other company that SoftBank spent way too much money on.
"And outside of ChatGPT, there really isn't anything else."

What's not to love about third-party software injecting itself into Firefox and causing crashes in the Rust standard library?
Third-party software can inject a DLL into firefox.exe that detours calls to NtOpenFile to monitor the use of this system call. Some of these third-party DLLs can assume that in any NtOpenFile call...
I am happy to announce that my first paper has been accepted at USENIX Security!
We propose TEEcorrelate, a mitigation that statistically decorrelates reported performance counters from real ones during TEE execution.
It protects against fine-grained performance-counter attacks on TEE's, while keeping coarse-grained trends intact for legitimate use cases.
