Nice way to end the year celebrating @AaloAtomics shipping the first reactors off the assembly line here in Austin. State officials and suppliers showed up in force to support Texas to be the headquarters of the nuclear renaissance. 👏👏@MattLoszak @yasir_fission

Posted a fast demo https://t.co/PR7A5gIZdX for CVE-2025-40780, where https://t.co/FycfsfI8gs says it was "discovered during research for an upcoming academic paper" that BIND's ID RNG is predictable. The attack is easy; what's interesting is why such a poor RNG ended up deployed.

the amount of completely wrong utterly worthless falsehoods on this website is really astonishing, and it’s even more astonishing watching sitting senators and CEOs fall for it. Postman’s Information Glut every day. despite grok and community notes it’s never been worse

AI does not reduce employment. No form of automation reduces employment. We have automated 99% of the work that existed 250 years ago, and yet, there’s still as much employment as ever. Automation increases incomes and standard of living.

The British state (and public) increasingly treat supply and demand as hostile forces.
In plans to be announced on Wednesday, reselling a ticket above face value will be outlawed. The big profits made by resellers were highlighted last summer when thousands of Oasis fans complained about the cost of buying tickets to see the rock band. https://t.co/9UWggdZrbh

I’m starting to get into a habit of reading everything (blogs, articles, book chapters,…) with LLMs. Usually pass 1 is manual, then pass 2 “explain/summarize”, pass 3 Q&A. I usually end up with a better/deeper understanding than if I moved on. Growing to among top use cases. On

Remember when a bunch of prominent idiots predicted, ~1.5 year ago, that AI was going to take all programming jobs in 2 years? Should have been obvious to all that those making said predictions had *no AI background* whatsoever, and were in no way qualified to predict anything.

@ChrisMurphyCT You're being played by people who want regulatory capture. They are scaring everyone with dubious studies so that open source models are regulated out of existence.
