Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 04/04/2026Tired of reading about AI, quantum safety, politics, and other doomsday material? Just post your cats. I sure need more cats in my timeline and so do you. 030
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 11/09/2025Listen 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! 010
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 02/09/2025I just had to pull out my copy of "The Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves" by Silverman because a paper had the AUDACITY of referring to it without recalling the definition, and I absolutely loved the experience of fishing the definition in an actual paperback🤣 Glad I had it, tho. 030

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 14/08/2025Here's an advice for you if you're discussing partnerships with vendors: stop wasting the vendor's time with idle calls if you've already picked another vendor anyway because you're "locked in by your investors' wishes". Not a good look for your team to do so. 010

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 14/08/2025Looks like my team has ensured I wouldn't be pushing any code to prod: they rustified it all, leaving me with just a few basic web backends to play with in Go. Not sure if I should be glad or sad as a founder that I cannot properly contribute to our codebase anymore 🤣 130

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 17/06/2025I'm sorry I didn't shout during the panel to tell everyone about FIPS in Go crypto when it really would have been needed! There was a question that would have been the perfect opening for it. 010
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 12/06/2025In case the "plaintext as a default and e2ee only for private chats nobody actually uses" wasn't enough of a red flag to you... I still cannot fathom how UX could actually justify Telegram adoption by the entire web3 communities, who are supposedly more likely to be concerned about privacy 😵💫 120

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Here's a statement once said about gold that will never be said about Bitcoin—even by maxis: > "Sometimes that yellow color just doesn't match the richness of celluloid or pearlized resin." You know why? Because you can’t make fountain-pen nibs out of Bitcoin, duh! 000
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 03/06/2025TFW you've just resized your fully-encrypted root partition thanks to LVM and cryptsetup without even rebooting, while also increasing the Argon2id parameters. 🤩 Well, if I'm offline tomorrow, you'll know why I guess. 020
Reposted by YolanRandamu @randa.mu · 23/05/2025Are you a small, independent game studio with big dreams? Fair loot drops, balanced PvP, and unpredictable worlds shouldn’t be hard.

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 27/04/2025I don't know how I did to live so long and deploy so many docker-based setup with @cloudflare.social in front without knowing about cloudflared tunnels. These are amazing, no more exposed port or firewalling issues, just straight from dev to production. 000
Reposted by YolanRandamu @randa.mu · 24/04/2025NFT Rarity Isn’t Magic, it’s Math and signature. If your NFT's rarity traits aren’t backed by verifiable randomness, then your rarity isn’t real. Randamu brings verifiable randomness on-chain, making rarity truly trustworthy. 021
Reposted by YolanRandamu @randa.mu · 07/04/2025From fair games to NFT drops, randomness shapes outcomes. The problem? It can be gamed. Randamu fixes that 🎲 Using threshold cryptography, we generate randomness that can’t be predicted or manipulated and can be publicly verified on-chain. 021
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Couldn't agree more. I have also met many other people at RWC that were similarly disappointed to learn that on the last day. 020

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Super interesting number from the Let's Encrypt talk at #realworldcrypto : they need HSMs doing PQ sigs at a rate of at least 10,000 signatures per second to consider doing PQ at their scale. 031
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Otherwise, it's confusing for the audience and gives them the impression they're missing out on the entire thing and that you're unsure or unprepared, probably not what you want as a speaker. 2/2 000
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 27/03/2025As both a speaker in large venues and an attendee, here's my 2c of advice for speakers: if you're presenting at something larger than a little meet-up, please try to remove the slides you won't be using from your presentation rather than jumping around 😅 1/2 100

Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Instead of reading crypto papers, creating a PoC or trying to break things, this week I've done, in order: - CSS text animations - Javascript and debugging of versioning issues to no avail - terraform to deploy ALPN on Network Load Balancers to support gRPC Startup life @randamu-labs.bsky.social 🤷♂️ 150
Yolan @anomalroil.bsky.social · 14/12/2024A 4090 has a SHA1 hashrate of 50638.7 MH/s as per hashcat benchmarks, compared to the 22757.6 MH/s of a 3090, it basically means a SHA1 collision is nowadays only taking 26.3 GPU months (as per the "SHA1 is a Shambles" estimates, let me know if I missed another paper since then) vs 5 GPU years 🤯 060
