aiscoming··on A few words on DS4
if it's just the coding agent system prompt and tools, you can cache that
aiscoming··on Codex is now in the ChatGPT mobile app
vs code supports local models (bring your own key/model)

you need a model server - ollama/llama.cpp/lm studio

aiscoming··on Codex is now in the ChatGPT mobile app
the ums are exactly the sign that you speak much faster than you type, so you need a pause for your thoughts to catch up
aiscoming··on First public macOS kernel memory corruption exploit on Apple M5
you should worry about npm/pypi malware, not memory corruption bugs
aiscoming··on First public macOS kernel memory corruption exploit on Apple M5
could be a different type of data only attack, which doesnt override the boundaries
aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
the vast majority of TPMs today live inside the CPU (fTPM). you can't physically attack them
aiscoming··on Rewrite Bun in Rust has been merged
vibe coders keep saying that now you can have 100x productivity, that you can write a million lines of code in a week and do what would take a team of 10 experienced developers a year.

where are all these million lines vibe coded projects? I don't see them. its all hype

aiscoming··on Arena AI Model ELO History
webUIs have giant system prompts built in

APIs have much smaller ones

aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
I get paid to defend AI and MSFT online. quite lucrative business. DM me if you are interested
aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
its pretty obvious you have no idea how bitlocker works, and its various modes - TPM only, TPM+PIN, PIN only
aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
no, to access a bitlocker volume which automatically decrypts

thats an LPE, not an encryption backdoor

the USB stick doesnt decrypt bitlocker, it just gives you root after bitlocker was AUTOMATICALLY decrypted

aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
this claim is in another galaxy, not your average 0-day
aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
how about we wait for proof for such grandiose claims

author could become famous by being the first to proove an actual backdoor in an OS disk encryption

aiscoming··on Microsoft BitLocker – YellowKey zero-day exploit
the only way to bypass PIN would be an actual backdoor in Bitlocker. no way around that. an actual backdoor in microsoft encryption was never documented, and there are Snowden documents showing FBI pressing Microsoft into introducing one and Microsoft refusing

so I call bullshit on the PIN bypass

aiscoming··on Mystery Microsoft bug leaker keeps the zero-days coming
claiming to have a 10 times more impressive PoC but not releasing it "out of goodness of heart" is also quite a stretch
aiscoming··on Cisco workforce reductions
I personally dont mind it, but apple is famous for ruthlesly removing decorative design and trying to make everything a slab of color, and this thin line goes so much against this
aiscoming··on delta time
the design is so beautiful
aiscoming··on Mystery Microsoft bug leaker keeps the zero-days coming
they might mean "after you enter the bitlocker PIN you get root access without having a login password on the system" - still just a privilege escalation bug
aiscoming··on Cisco workforce reductions
that horizontal line is hillarious. I can imagine the discussions with the designers "just put the fucking line there, I dont care how it looks, its important to separate the two sets of people"
aiscoming··on Mystery Microsoft bug leaker keeps the zero-days coming
this exploit works only if you dont use a PIN/password for your Bitlocker and the volume automatically unlocks

so it gives you access to an encrypted volume which automatically unlocks anyway

the only difference is that it immediately gives you root access to the volume instead of having to go through the Windows login procedure - this might be a stolen laptop you dont have an account on

aiscoming··on The vi family
allow me to quote the Ancients, the vi creator himself:

> What would you do differently?

> JOY: I wish we hadn't used all the keys on the keyboard.

> ...

> JOY: The fundamental problem with vi is that it doesn't have a mouse and therefore you've got all these commands. In some sense, its backwards from the kind of thing you'd get from a mouse-oriented thing.

> Its like one of those pinatas - things that have candy inside but has layer after layer of paper mache on top. It doesn't really have a unified concept. I think if I were going to go back - I wouldn't go back, but start over again.

shots fired:

> JOY: I can just look at my screen, and when I print it off, it's the same as it looks on the screen. It is formatted, and I'm tired of using vi. I get really bored. There have been many nights when I've fallen asleep at the keyboard trying to make a release. At least now I can fall asleep with a mouse in my hand. I use the Xerox optica mouse instead of the other one because it is color coordinated with my office. Did you notice? I prefer the white mouse to the black mouse. You've got to have some fun, right?

aiscoming··on Lanzaboote – NixOS Secure Boot
this is how Microsoft wins the war against general computing

you must not join it, refuse to lockdown your computer

aiscoming··on Zero-native – Build native desktop apps with web UI
if typography is critical for you, nothing has better support for it than the web platform
aiscoming··on The vi family
vi was never progressive, it was "the Ancients knew it better, the present sucks, these kids have terrible taste, return to the one true Past"
aiscoming··on Zero-native – Build native desktop apps with web UI
I love the redefinition of "native desktop app" - a web app which uses the system web-view instead of bundling Chrome.
aiscoming··on GitLab announces workforce reduction and end of their CREDIT values
steve yegee was saying this in december, that he had multiple people at companies with heavy AI usage telling him that git cant handle 1000+ commits per hour that these companies are producing now, that the agent can't push because between the push command initiation and its finish another push happened
aiscoming··on Postmortem: TanStack NPM supply-chain compromise
you can't get infected through the package manager if your language doesn't have a package manager :) turns out C and C++ were playing 4D chess all along
aiscoming··on Postmortem: TanStack NPM supply-chain compromise
tell us about your disk encryption setup. and do you use secureboot?
aiscoming··on CUDA-oxide: Nvidia's official Rust to CUDA compiler
why would you edit them away? they are a signal that you are an "AI first" company
aiscoming··on Outlook on Windows silently scales your email by 1.5×
> Your carefully laid-out 600px email

thats the first mistake right there - dont treat email like a PDF

> Apple Mail turns dates into calendar links. Write “Sale ends May 5” in your campaign and iOS Mail wraps “May 5” in a tappable suggestion that opens a create-event sheet. The override styling is bright blue with an underline, ignoring whatever colors you set.

the lack of self-awareness is quite something to behold
