On top of that, I believe it’s clear with how Cursor and Claude converged on regex search after using vectors that asking LLMs to come up with similar terms to regex is more effective than searching for the user’s original term over a vector db.

We've been doing a similar pattern already, because we have our web app iframed and communicating with outlook (via Office.JS) and gmail (via InboxSDK.JS) in order to read changes to the To: field and insert contents into the compose page based on that:

* stimulus encapsulates the javascript logic that "bridges" to Outlook and Gmail, including initializing the To: field listener * stimulus actions can trigger the "bridge" as well

It's worked out very well - though I really hate dealing with native stuff in general - especially compatibility nightmares with older versions of Outlook. Probably less of a problem with iOS/Android.

My interpretation of this is that their investors suspect that whatever boost ARM is getting from AI optimism will likely peak soon, so the timing has to be now.

I know that's not fully rational because they're mostly unrelated, but certainly the optimism because of AI has to be good for them. Curious to see if this "signal" plays out - investors tend to be pretty savvy about timing.

These are vastly different criticality levels.

All the talk of IOCtl and assembly/bytes in the in the ButDefender report implies “another device on the Wi-Fi”, but I know wyze cams can be viewed over-the-Internet, ostensibly proxied via Wyze’s own servers, so maybe not?

One point that I disagree with is his almost axiomatic premise that decentralization is an inherent good and the implication that the Internet went wrong because it failed to stay decentralized. To hint at great cryptography as the solution, as he does im his conclusion, is baked deep in his bones as an amazing cryptographer, but I think he’s prescribing the wrong cure. The problems with the Internet are fundamentally not about decentralization - they’re about trust. It’s a people problem, not a technology problem. Because of this, cryptography (I do not mean crypto) simply cannot be the answer - even the best cryptography is, like a great legal system, only capable of dramatically reducing the overhead costs and risk of operating in a given environment. When it comes to what great cryptography can achieve, I think HTTPS and maybe some E2E stuff that’s happening with Signal is as good as it can get (interestingly, HTTPS is good in large part thanks to Moxie) - it cannot bring us back to some golden Internet age.

PKC Security is a software consultancy focused on solving impossible problems. Custom software, MVP's, and design sprints are our primary offerings at this time. Cybersecurity has become a smaller part of our offerings, but we still definitely do code audits and white box penetration tests.

We're going through a growth spurt right now and are looking for developers. We're focusing on using Node.js in the backend and React.js in the frontend as our go-to, but are always in search of the best tool for the job in general. Due to this there are less specific technical requirements as to experience with certain stacks, and we are looking for strong developers in general.

Check us out at www.pkc.io, or if you're bored, try our "Choose your own adventure" game at https://game.pkc.io. We built this at one of our monthly in-house hackathons!

Finally, feel free to reach out to our hiring team with any questions at jobs@pkcsecurity.com - please attach your resume and cover letter if you intend to apply for a position!

After taking these two crypto courses, I signed up for CS155 https://crypto.stanford.edu/cs155/, which is his undergrad class on security at Stanford (they were offering it through their professional center, I don't think they still offer it, which is a bummer)
