We just launched ZisK v1.0.0-alpha.
From here, our focus shifts to security: audits, formal verification, and hardening every component of the stack.
Huge thanks to the team and the community for making this possible.
ZK is a fundamental technology for decentralized and trustless systems
ZisK v1.0.0-alpha is out.

This release marks the beginning of the stabilization phase for ZisK.
The codebase is now feature frozen, and our focus shifts to security audits, formal verification, testing, and hardening.
We call it alpha because we take security seriously.
If you're interested in integrating ZisK, building on top of it, or evaluating it for production use, now is the time to start.

To reduce European dependence on American technology firms, the European Parliament has replaced Google with a French search engine, Qwant.
Qwant generates its search results by querying the Microsoft Bing API.
Josh Baer died last night. He founded Capital Factory and built the Austin startup community, then helped it spread across Texas. He gave first, always. I wrote down what he meant to me.

The ban will fail. But the privacy loss will be permanent.
Long after UK teens have bypassed it (just as Australian kids did, by the way)...
...the British will be stuck self-doxxing to surveillance gatekeepers to use the internet.
Embarrassing legacy for Starmer, who should know better.
And a daily reminder to Brits of government overreach.
We see the tower of Jesus Christ illuminated for the first time!
The light show, starting from the base up to the illumination of the cross, culminated with a composition of lights guided by drones that traced the figure of Gaudí and the phrase “first love, then technique”.
mythos will be bad ON PURPOSE on ai "frontier llm research" tasks, this is very very sad for the research community

Today, almost 100k educators in Catalunya are deciding what happens next with the education strikes. And the vote is running on @vocdoni.
This is precisely why we build open-source voting tech; this is how we democratize access to secure voting.

Welp, that happened faster than I predicted. Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027, but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet's history. https://t.co/2zX5bHdhsa
By default, your @Telegram chats, groups, and channels are NOT end-to-end encrypted. Telegram holds the keys. @Durov can read your messages. In front of an @OsloFF audience of dissidents, this reinforces a false sense of safety among the exact people who can least afford it.
Inviting @Durov & celebrating @Telegram as a champion of freedom is a form of privacy-washing, or Security Theater to stretch @schneierblog's term. @HRF@OsloFF is wrapping an insecure tool in the credibility of the human-rights movement. Telegram is not secure.
🌍 @Durov will be speaking at the Oslo Freedom Forum in just a few days in Oslo, Norway.
Pavel Durov is a technology entrepreneur known for championing freedom of expression. He is the founder and CEO of Telegram, a globally popular messaging platform. Before launching Telegram, Durov founded VKontakte (VK), which became Russia’s largest and most influential social network.
