It seems like the pizza box claim is wrong, so my current working theory is that Romanian authorities simply thought now would be the funniest time to arrest Tate

No, this is no April fools. This is Germany in its „well prepared“ third pandemic winter.
People should trade their essential medication on fleemarkets. There is no capacity to treat all the sick children…
Well done 😔@Karl_Lauterbach

Every time I come back to Europe, I’m reminded of the absolute batshit insanity that cookie warnings are. Idiotic, poorly thought out, user experience-killing compliance garbage that can’t possibly do anything to improve privacy in any meaningful way whatsoever. – at Stockholm, Sweden

With CI Fuzz CLI, you can now integrate fuzz testing into #JUnit.
This integration allows you to test your Java applications for unexpected behavior given unusual and invalid inputs.
We're excited to become a bronze sponsor of @junitteam. Keep up the great work!
#maven #gradle
A big thank you to our new bronze sponsor, Code Intelligence (@CI_Fuzz)! code-intelligence.com #supportJUnit

Our open-source CLI has now enhanced support for Java ☕️
With #JUnit integration, you can set up fuzz tests as easily as unit tests.
Compatible with #Maven & #Gradle.
Testing tools should reduce complexity in developers' day-to-day life, not add to it.

So now we’ve changed one problem (master authority can decrypt anything) into a different problem (master authority gets to specify [in advance] a *secret* list of things it can decrypt).
I legitimately think this is an improvement! But it’s not quite a solution.

With LLMs for science out there (#Galactica) we need new ethics rules for scientific publication. Existing rules regarding plagiarism, fraud, and authorship need to be rethought for LLMs to safeguard public trust in science. Long thread about trust, peer review, & LLMs. (1/23)

A buddy who's interested in end-to-end encryption (E2EE) but hasn't done one of these projects in the very messy place which is the real world happened to ask me this morning about pitfalls which might not be obvious. So here's a partial list in the hopes that it's helpful. 🧵
