Well said. The meme of "it wasn't at all about states' rights and if you think it was you're a (racist|revisionist|CSA apologist)" is more confusing than persuasive. And that's my perspective as someone who gre

We're using the implementation I linked with parameter set EES743EP1.

For Cyph[1], we went with SPHINCS[2] for signing and a combination of McEliece (specifically McBits[3]), NTRU[4], and SIDH[5] for public key encryption. We also considered QcBits[6] as a more space-efficient alternative to McEliece, but it

Yep, that one was an interesting surprise.

Probably not. I'm not saying "don't form LLCs" — it's probably in itself a good idea for any slightly serious project — but rather that it isn't a substitute for complying with the law. I say this from experien

Definitely retain counsel no matter what for anything important. I'm just saying I'd be surprised if there were a situation in which a lawyer would advise that registering an LLC is reasonable protection from all legal repercussio
789.
by buu700 8y ago
I get the point, but I wouldn't want anyone reading that and taking the conclusion seriously. Forming an LLC in that case is pretty much a waste of time and money that offers a false sense of security.

by buu700 8y ago
At one point you just go fuck it, it's a side project. Just wrap it in a LLC so it can't bankrupt you even if you do get sued. From experience: this is dangerous and completely wrong advice. The corporate veil can be pierced if

Hmm, thanks for the tip, and thanks for testing that out so I don't have to! It hadn't occurred to me that that would be the case, but it makes some sense after reading through https://stackoverflow.com/q/3812

Ah, I thought that might've been part of it since you brought up the comparison to eval; just wanted to clarify that there are other options for avoiding reliance on external subresources. which is hard if it was downloaded dynamicall

Actually, emscripten has a built-in flag (SINGLE_FILE) to embed the wasm code as base64 (which I'm the author of, incidentally).

Ran into a few errors the first time I loaded it (looks good after a refresh though): https://i.imgur.com/xflIFYN.png

by buu700 8y ago
Thanks for all the interesting context and backstory; I wasn't aware of any of that. In any case, if it was unclear, my point here wasn't that I necessarily dislike the brickwall UI. In light of the studies you've referenced,

Ah, well that's fair, and I think I'd generally agree with that. I don't have an alternative proposal for handling TLS failures in general, but I think it's silly to arbitrarily make HPKP's UX a special case, and th

If users do abort their usage of the site, the site is effectively bricked. If they don't, then HPKP accomplished nothing because users are using the site despite a possible mitm. That's exactly the same situation as any other T
799.
by buu700 8y ago
That largely defeats the point. Almost no one knows what to make of those errors. And just training everyone to ignore them makes HPKP pointless. How so? Are you suggesting that TLS as a whole is pointless because browsers allow users to

by buu700 8y ago
Well, the timing wasn't 100% random since the newly supported Expect-CT header was HPKP's "replacement", but I do think three years is a ridiculously small turnaround time between initially adding support for the feature

by buu700 8y ago
This sounds like pretty much the same argument that @eganist and I made to Google and Mozilla a little while back before demoing an HPKP supercookie ( https://github.com/cyph/hpkp-supercookie ) at Black Hat and DEF CON.

by buu700 8y ago
We (Cyph) have been pretty disappointed in the Chrome team's decision to kill HPKP. Paraphrasing, but IIRC the reasoning pretty much boiled down to "it's a pain to maintain and Expect-CT is kind of similar anyway" — whic

It took me way too many passes to realize that the title said "worms" and not "woman". That was really confusing.

Interesting, thanks! Sad that it requires third-party software to add the iTerm shortcut (which was my biggest concern since I use it so often), but sounds like the touchbar will probably be a net positive, or at least not a dealbreaker whe

by buu700 8y ago
Question for someone who has a touchbar: is it possible to add app shortcuts to it (like an extension of the dock)? And what about a dedicated escape button? I use F12 throughout the day to open iTerm and Cmd+F2 to open Spotlight, and the e

Initial prototype aside, I wonder how married the Qt team is to the canvas approach. Improved performance is great, but not very helpful if it means the solution gets considered a nonstarter by almost everyone evaluating it. As long as the

LOL, wow. The Fanta drink originated as a cola substitute in Germany under a World War II trade embargo for Coca-Cola ingredients in 1940. . . . In February 2015, a 75th-anniversary version of Fanta was released in Germany. Packaged in gla

It is a theological position, but it'd be silly to call atheism a religion just as it would be to call theism a religion.

Yep, regardless of whose "fault" it is — and I totally buy that it's macOS's fault, considering how much effort my startup Cyph has to spend on working around Safari/iOS bugs — at the end of the day Firefox is unusa
