Listen folks, I've seen a lot of code, I've seen code you wouldn't believe, but this, this right here, it's truly the best. The greatest, I tell you! We have the greatest coders, they write the greatest code, nobody does it better. It's tremendous, it's fantastic, it's yuge!
A screenshot of code that reads: /// 01 -> compressed infinity point /// the "uncompressed infinity point" will just have 00 (uncompressed) followed by zeroes (infinity = 0,0 in affine coordinates) isCompressed := (input[0]>>7)&0x01 == 0x01 if !isCompressed { return nil, fmt.Errorf("uncompressed point cannot be decompressed") } isGreatest := (input[0]>>6)&0x01 == 0x01 // we clear both bits input[0] &= byte(0b00111111)

BRB, putting the G into OG devs by sneaking commits into our feature complete legacy project...

@gopherconeu.bsky.social teaching us what not to do in Go 😂
A speaker showing weird functional code in Go and pointing at a screen titled "The untyped Y Conbinator", with a Gopher in the background.

That feel when your elevator has a password prompt on its door...

Some Apple engineers must be having a laugh seeing their joke exposed 😂

A slide about the Flush+Reload attack on Square and Multiply algorithm used in some cryptographic scheme, with an overlay blue box containing the resolution allowed for timer in different browsers or ecosystems. The Apple M1 has a resolution of 42ns, a surprisingly specific number...

Can't believe Chrome on Android is bringing back the URL bar at the bottom... I was there in 2018 when you deprecated that option, stop claiming it's a new feature 😂 prolly someone who wasn't happy with the change back then finally joined the Android Chrome team 🤣

Always think twice before asking me to handle the coffee setup 😋 unless you want to undergo an espresso crash course. Our @randamu-labs.bsky.social team mountain retreat is featuring a modded Gaggia, with full flow profiling and temp control caps. Mandatory training for all employees has been given.
A nice espresso setup, with a Gaggiuino (modded Gaggia classic) on left, followed by a bunch of espresso tools and a bunch of bags of coffee beans, with a white Niche Zero grinder in the back and a naked portafilter on the front.

A single @grafana.bsky.social dashboard tab in my browser uses 9GB of RAM after having been opened for ~1 hour and basically unwatched for 55 minutes...
The "This is fine" meme. On the first pane, a dog with a hat sitting on a chair next to a mug of coffee on a table, and flames all around them, and smoke on the ceiling. On the second pane, the same dog saying "This is fine".

Don't just tell about your success, also show your failures, they say. But to be honest the fact we've build a practical Timelock system along with all the required tooling to create cool virtual time capsule doesn't feel like a failure even if CCCamp didn't want to know about it 🤷 I'll be there!
A screenshot of a mail saying: Chaos Communication Camp 2023 Your proposal: Create your own virtual Time Capsule Hi! We are sorry to tell you that we cannot accept your proposal "Create your own virtual Time Capsule" to Chaos Communication Camp 2023. There were just too many great proposals - we hope to see you at Chaos Communication Camp 2023 as an attendee instead of a speaker! The Chaos Communication Camp 2023 organisers

I see many people featuring employer disclaimers on their website. Now that I'm self-employed by my own LLC and working as a contractor in the crypto space, while also going to many conference, I have a special clause too.

So, recently a 20 char password was "potentially broken" by the French Police and somehow PBKDF2 got the blame instead of the password... But now Proton Mail is releasing Proton Pass and claiming they are safe with bcrypt, but that's not necessarily true: a weak or leaked password remains weak 🙃
