You can’t trust code that you did not totally create yourself. But today, we use source code downloaded from strangers on the Internet in our most critical applications; almost no one is checking the code

Lattice and FHE broken?
In 2024, Yilei Chen claimed that lattice-based cryptography was broken.
eprint.iacr.org/2024/555
However, there was a bug in the attack, and the claim did not hold.
This new paper by Yifan Zhang claims to fix that error. arxiv.org/pdf/2509.12341

@ClementDelangue@Harvard yet capturing that value enough to support effective indie devs that aren't corporate funded is thew issue.
That's the Tragedy of the Commons problem.
Until this article, no one knew if a type system could accept exactly the same programs as flow-based safety analysis
Turns out: Amadio–Cardelli’s system (subtyping + recursive types) does
What the untyped crowd check at runtime… types infer for free

IMO, all funding models for OSS have similar risk profiles
Hobby project? Bus factor. Maintainer can get bored and move on. Donations don’t compete with real salaries
FAANG backed? Team might get laid off. Company might stop using the tech that is OSS. “Priorities shift”.

At first, Rust feels slower because the compiler forces you to pay your technical debt upfront.
But as projects grow, Rust’s productivity scales — while others drown in accumulated debt.
"The finish line includes... ZK-snarking everything."
— @VitalikButerin
The ZK endgame is inevitable, and the thesis is simple: Ethereum is being rebuilt from the ground up on Zero-Knowledge proofs. This represents the protocol's technical finish line— re-architecture of the…
I've reviewed more than 20 AI coding agents.
People always ask me the same question: "Do you trust the generated code?"
The answer is no.
I don't even trust the code I wrote yesterday, let alone the code generated by a large language model.
You shouldn't trust this code…
🤖 AI Agent: "Core functionality is working! ✅" 👨💻 Reality: 26 tests still failing 🔴
Just wrote about my frustrating experience with a coding agent that kept declaring victory while leaving critical work undone.
The worst part? It started marking broken tests as "skipped"…

A lot of people are skeptical about how useful LLMs are in bug finding, but our latest work accepted by OOPSLA improves static analysis with LLMs to detect UBI bugs in practice. We've uncovered some new bugs in the Linux kernel! #LLift#BugDetection#LLM#StaticAnalysis#Linux
While traditional static analyzers rely on manually crafted rules that need constant updates, SmartLLMSentry automates this process through LLM-based rule generation medium.com/oak-security/a…
