TBF I face much more challenges saving data _from_ the WaybackMachine using the CDX API than most of the sites I've scraped:

Most tools for offline archiving simply don't work, and although I'm *really* slow with my requests I get throttled all the time :P

Oh, and I almost forgot that it's surprisingly hard to translate IA URL's to local file paths, esp. since the URL's retrieved from the API aren't properly encoded (https://web.archive.org/.../http://example.com/...)

About once in a year I have to look at some Ruby stuff, and it's always getting worse.

Not only can't I install fresh versions with rbenv anymore, but even the ones that are available are broken.

ChatGPT Versions:
3.0 - It's wrong but very fast
3.5 - GPT3 but with more words
4.0 - GPT3 but with more words and slightly less wrong slightly less fast
4o - GPT3 but our investors wouldn't stop asking us when we're making the next model
4o1 - GPT3 but we boil the ocean by iteratively running your GPT3 queries through more GPT3 instances which all try to fact check each other based on no objective definition of what facts are
5.0 - We've cut costs and carbon emissions while maintaining model accuracy by replacing our GPUs with apes

We find that the original performance claims for NPS fuzzers do not hold; a gap we relate to fundamental, implementation, and experimental limitations of prior works." #fuzzing

After a decade(?) without GReader I gave in and started using a server-based #RSS solution, primarily to sync between my devices.

#FreshRSS works pretty well so far: I use newsboat as client, and can even use the built-in scraper to follow sites that don't publish syndication feeds! The downside is that I have to use XPath...

Looks like Newag isn't satisfied with how their civil lawsuit against us in Warsaw is going - because they just filed another one, this time in Gdańsk, and from another corporate entity they manage. And to add to the pile of arbitrary accusations, this time it's about unfair competition (again) and violation of their corporate personality rights (slander?).

Google Security Blog: A new path for Kyber on the web

  • Chrome 131 will switch from supporting Kyber post-quantum algorithm to Module Lattice Key Encapsulation Mechanism (ML-KEM).
  • Chrome will not support Kyber and ML-KEM at the same time.
  • Chrome will offer a key share prediction for hybrid ML-KEM (codepoint 0x11EC)
  • The PostQuantumKeyAgreementEnabled flag and enterprise policy will apply to both Kyber and ML-KEM
  • Chrome will no longer support hybrid Kyber (codepoint 0x6399)
