Today marks a very important day for me personally. I have finally managed to introduce Enigma-breaking, as developed by Marian Rejewski, into the official curriculum of the cryptanalysis course at @UAM_Poznan . I blended my notes and ideas with the power of AI to deliver a high-quality learning experience in which students can follow every step of the method.
The second part of the session will be dedicated to the extension of Rejewski’s idea: the Turing–Welchman bombe. We break Enigma at will! Next week: Zygalski sheets to complete the cycle.
I’m truly happy that cryptology in Poznań is finally being taught again as it was back in the 1930s! But now we end with post-quantum ultra-modern cryptography. Such a long journey.
“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist.”

The Youtube premiere of my fascinating discussion with Wendy Freedman on her group's fascinating results and the apparent resolution of what looked like a major outstanding in our understanding of the universe starts in just over an hour.. https://t.co/P2LYEjwjzP
Wake up.
If a single bug can take down
airlines, banks, retailers, media outlets, and more, what on earth makes you think we are ready for AGI?
The world needs to up its software game massively. We need to invest in improving software reliability and methodology, not rushing out half-baked chatbots.
An unregulated AI industry is a recipe for disaster.
Finally managed to get it! Of course from MJ @SEG Electronic Market ! Thank you @RealSexyCyborg@bunniestudios for the new edition of the Essential Guide to Electronics in Shenzhen!
Malware used in politically-motivated wiper attacks, "likely aimed at infecting machines within the Italian government’s infrastructure", according to Sonicwall. The original blog did not have a hash but @Now_on_VT has you covered. 😃
Changes on EVERY page, new chapter "Cryptocurrency cryptography" inc. PoW, algebraic hashing & Poseidon, multi-signatures, threshold signatures, zero-knowledge proofs, and more.
NEW: section about Ed25519; the new Linux PRNG; NIST's PQC standards
