So I wrote a blog post the other day. It is about using push-to-talk with local llms to talk to your agent(s). Funny thing is that I am using it quite often for writing "regular" text as well. My fasvorite tool is Sagascript. I have become a dictator 😄 callistaenterprise.se/blogg/teknik...

❗️ The slopocalypse is real. MITRE published a critical SQLite vulnerability with a CVSS of 10.0 that does not exist. Turns out it was hallucinated by an LLM. SQLite's Richard Hipp says dozens more fake CVEs were filed.

Unreal — Gianni Infantino is selling off pieces of FIFA, and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s brother Josh is overseeing the deal. The corruption is endless.

Passkeys can be stored just like password hashes! I'm proposing an interoperable $webauthn$v=1$… format, and a Go API that uses these passkey records for authentication. I'm looking for feedback before proposing this as crypto/passkey for Go 1.28!

Opaque, Interoperable Passkey Records (and a Go API)

Passkey records are an interoperable format for WebAuthn credentials, similar to password hash strings. I propose a potential crypto/passkey Go API based on them.

Proposal: UK and EU require absolute separation of operations for major AI and cloud providers from their US counterparts. US did this on security grounds for TikTok, so UK/EU could use the same justification for Amazon, Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, X.
