C.Daniel J. Bernstein (<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/djb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#djb</a>, to those who know and love him [1]) has a new blog entry about the NIST post-quantum <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/cryptography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cryptography</a> standardization process that's been ongoing for some years. Also, follow him <a href="https://mastodon.cr.yp.to/@djb" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@djb</a> .If you're not aware of some of the controversy about how NIST is running this process, it's a must-read.<a href="https://blog.cr.yp.to/20250423-mceliece.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blog.cr.yp.to/20250423-mceliece.html</a>My $0.02: it sure looks like NIST is backstopping an attempt by the NSA to get everyone to standardize on cryptography <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/standards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#standards</a> that the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/NSA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NSA</a> knows how to break.Again.Yes, they did it before. If you read up on the Dual_EC calamity and its fallout, and how this time it was supposed to be different - open, transparent, secure - then prepare to be disappointed. NIST is playing <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Calvinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Calvinball</a> with their rules for this contest, yanking the rug out from under contenders that appear to be more <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/secure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#secure</a> and better understood, while pushing alternatives that are objectively worse (<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weaker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weaker</a> encryption, less studied, poorer <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/performance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#performance</a>).Frankly, I think organizations outside of the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a> would be foolish to trust anything that comes out of <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/NIST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NIST</a>'s current work. Well, those inside the USA too, but some of those may be forced by law to use whatever NIST certifies.[1] Some people think djb is "prickly", not lovable. Oddly, it seems that the only people who say this are those who are wildly incorrect about code/algorithms and are being gently but publicly corrected about by djb at the time<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/quantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#quantum</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/PostQuantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PostQuantum</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/PostQuantumCryptography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PostQuantumCryptography</a>

Deadly Headshot<a href="https://not.an.evilcyberhacker.net/@jiub" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jiub</a> From what I've been able to gather, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Bonkwave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bonkwave</a> is the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Calvinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Calvinball</a> of music. About the only definitive thing about Bonkwave is it's (usually) electronic.

Mathieu GouxLe nouveau Ludographie, mon podcast sur la grammaire et la culture du jeu vidéo, est sorti ! Ce sera le dernier de 2024 🙂 Bonne écoute !Résumé :Ces trois épisodes évoquent la façon dont les éditeurs de jeux vidéo proposent des “éditions critiques” de leurs œuvres, les limites et les forces de cette approche. Nous prenons pour exemple la série des Mega Man classics de Capcom sur Famicom et NES (1987-1993).1. Du début à 11:30 : Mega Man 1 (Capcom, 1987), 2 (Capcom, 1988) et 3 (Capcom, 1990) sur NES 2. De 12:00 à 21:20 : Mega Man: The Wily Wars (Capcom, 1994) sur Megadrive 3. De 21:50 à la fin : Mega Man: Legacy Collection (Capcom, 2015) sur Steam<a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/jeuvideo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jeuvideo</a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#podcast</a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/ludographie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ludographie</a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/calvinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#calvinball</a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/megaman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#megaman</a> <a href="https://www.calvinballconsortium.fr/podcasts/ludographie/episodes/2024-12-17-ludographie-111-113-editions-critique-du-jeu-video-l-exemple-des-mega-man-classics/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.calvinballconsortium.fr/podcasts/ludographie/episodes/2024-12-17-ludographie-111-113-editions-critique-du-jeu-video-l-exemple-des-mega-man-classics/</a>

AngelaFlip dug out the <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Scrabble" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Scrabble</a> board, sat and read the instructions very carefully, and proceeded to make his own rules on the fly.Feeling very reminiscent of <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/CalvinBall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CalvinBall</a>.
