CIRCLE WITH A DOT

There are many other problens with LLMs, but the fact that AI SaaS providers are speedrunning the enshittification process as first described by @pluralistic is kind of neat.

They aren't even waiting years for user complacency and vendor lock-in to take root. Probably because of all the circular financing going on.

@ClaudeDevs Framing this as a free credit instead of a regression for users is wild. Now I have to make the Claude Code experience on T3 Code significantly worse in order to keep using the 25x subsidization provided on a Claude Code subscription. https://x.com/theo/status/2054618101615047029?s=46 Quoting Theo - t3.gg (@theo) Solution incoming…

Seeing Cloudflare do a 20% layoff doesn't bode well for the tech industry which already has a problem of too many overqualified people looking for too few jobs.

Some of y'all give up on your dreams too quickly

We should start making the case to shareholders that AI doesn't need a golden parachute

Replace the C-Suite instead of the workers

After a long weekend, I've finally updated https://publickey.directory to reflect the current state of affairs for the Public Key Directory which brings Key Transparency to the Fediverse, as part of the effort to build End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) for ActivityPub.

This project now supports* Post-Quantum Cryptography! (We're shipping ML-DSA-44 now and will consider new algorithms in the future.) HPKE also uses mlkem768x25519 (a.k.a. X-Wing).

* The only part that doesn't currently require post-quantum cryptography is RFC 9421 (HTTP Message Signatures), because no one has bothered to specify an IANA codepoint for it yet. I'm planning to write a C2SP spec soon if no one beats me to it. For the interim, Ed25519 is still allowed there, but in v2 I plan to drop it.

@tael @bascule I'm confident Tony knows this lol
