fact: in the earliest days of public transit, ticket validation was commonly performed by hired catgirls. the creatures’ unique teeth patterns served to bind the validated ticket to the particular transit line, and the validation stations doubled as information desks, as members of the species tend to be massive transit nerds.

however, this system had to be quickly phased out in favor of mechanical validators, due to numerous complaints about accidental validation of passenger fingers and other body parts.

Introducing the "Tuscolo" Certificate Transparency logs, a new thing that @filippoFilippo Valsorda :go: and I am operating:

https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/ct-policy/c/KCzYEIIZSxg

For a while the certificate transparency ecosystem has been struggling to keep up with correctness (basically never roll back) and reliability (99% uptime) requirements, to address this there is a updated standard that @filippoFilippo Valsorda :go: worked on, Since he also worked on the first serious implementation of this new standard "sunlight", Port 179 LTD (me) and Geomys (Filippo and friends) are now running a log running this, ensuring there is "skin in the game" for this spec.

This log will be different from the traditional set up of CT logs that involve large MySQL or Cassandra clusters, and instead we just have a single reasonably low cost "bare metal" AMD machine. We expect this log to be around 50 times cheaper to operate than the established CT logs based in the "hyperscalers" (AWS/GCP/Azure/etc).

Tuscolo is currently receiving all Lets Encrypt certificates (as they are issued), hopefully there will be more CA's to come once we have full acceptance in the web browsers (we will likely be the first for a sunlight/new spec log to be accepted)

There was a «A Language Creators’ Conversation» in 2019 with:
• Anders Hejlsberg (Turbo Pascal, Delphi, C#, )
• James Gosling ()
• Guido Van Rossum ()
• Larry Wall ()

hosted by Carol Willing ().

The audio is very bad, but I wanted to share the content so I paid a human to transcribe it better than an AI could.

Here's the transcript & link to video. Enjoy!

Thrilled to announce my new Project Zero blog post is LIVE! 🎉 I detail my knowledge-driven fuzzing process to find sandbox escape vulnerabilities in CoreAudio on MacOS.

I'll talk about this and the exploitation process next week
