This was, itself, driven by AI vuln finding, ironically :-P however, I took the example of @ggwhyp's Firefox RCE - quite a long chain, rejected by the organizers but probably would have won some cash from Mozilla... Details aren't

The real datapoint was Firefox not paying any money in Berlin's Pwn2Own competition round this May just gone. Unheard of to have nothing confirmed... they've paid out every event since 2007 (I checked). Does this mean we must move

Hard agree on this! Given the aggressive templating a lot of these projects have, it's actually positive to see "ok, these clankers can do the boring thing..." from one so traditionally safe-playing on development approaches

This blog is actually very useful... There's also the flip side, possibly due to the expense (technically, intellectually, and emotionally), where "IT'S FORMALLY VERIFIED!!" has become some marketing code for "it&#x

Nice to see SaxonQ getting some deserved attention. Diamond, not needing much cooling, would be perfect if you could 'place' the NV centres more easily. I heard a group was trying with FIB tech, but it's early days. Great wri

Interesting to see this pop up again, as I agree with the post but not the bait-and-switch in the title :-P Open source is not a business model in and of itself, but many very successful companies and large enterprise units are built off op

Fun fact - the computiles piece is an uncredited rediscovery of Wang's work from the 1960's on computable tilings. Specifically, he went as far to show that the halting problem is equivalent to the 'domino problem' - can

Technically, it's the link between tilings and computability. Braids have a different more mutable algebraic structure.
