When I was a child, visiting other families was a highlight. Sometimes it was family, sometimes it was friends of my parents. We'd pack everyone in the car, drive to someone else's house (different! better!), and have piles of fun with the other kids. Plus dinner! Next time they'd come to our house!

My sisters and I knew all these other kids, because our parents had all been socializing for as long as we'd been alive.

Good news, "introvert"! Your side won. I hope the dusty walls and ragged headphone cushions stay comfortable. If not, you can replace them with one click.

Does this mean the industry is now able to clean up the underfunded environmental disasters they created in the Gulf of Mexico?

Oh, right.

Yep. Lots of money-ish examples.

Unauthorized removal of bitcoin from a wallet, depositing into another?

I think these four people want to be in a smaller organization. It's more fun.

Good, realistic take. There's a lot of context that can be drawn on to make better decisions and look for weird.

And then agents come along and some people want their agent to be able to do anything they can do with zero friction. That usually lasts until the first time something goes wrong ;)

Agreed; I don't think we want security controls to devolve into an argument between LLMs. Attacking and defending LLMs operate in an ecosystem, and are (hopefully) limited by constraints. Defending LLMs will be able to rely on and evolve those constraints. Attacking LLMs want to find a way around them.

+1000, and the role of non-deterministic security is to compose deterministic security primitives.

Deterministic executes fast and you know what it will do. You want to evolve your ground truth, not hope for the best.

That said, there is a role for probabilistic elements in the security model...as bait and signal.

- Liability - What can you really fit in HW4? - No right answers in many situations. - But mostly liability. It's pretty good.

You're highly critical. What would you be doing differently? So far Tridge has elected to:

- generally decide to fix security issues over preserving compatibility - rewritten an aging test suite in what appears to be a highly responsible way - brought on additional qualified developers to help with the workload

Not bad for a guy who's retired.

You care enough to complain on HN. You could be a part of the solution.

What were you going to do differently, specifically?

Yeah, we definitely need to make sure that we take the considerations of the mob into account.

The person owning the project is using the master branch in the way he sees fit.

Incidentally, there is no amount of communicating "correctly" that quells a mob. There's a Venn diagram of concerns, and those with concerns not being met will generate (now infinite) outrage.

I recommend "How to measure anything in cybersecurity risk". Really interesting read about putting actual value on security.

I'm truly hopeful that AI will open a new of prototyping. Back in the day, prototyping was how you figured out what to build, you'd very deliberately toss the entire first (or second!) version, and you'd plan to do that.

High quality ensued. Usually ;)

I think that subscribing to another person's life prevents you from living your own. Also, "Everything is Lies, I Guess".

For me it's been useful as an idea categorizer: "oh well, that turned out to be a crap idea."

It's allowed me to clear out some long-standing brush on the forest floor. And burn it down once or twice.
