What really happened at #CrowdStrike and why I think their proposed plan is totally inadequate and won't prevent future similar #outage. verse.systems/blog/post/2024… I'd appreciate all feedback on this post. Please share if you like. cc @ciaranmartinoxf @thegrugq h/t @riskybusiness

📣Official statement: the new EU chat controls proposal for mass scanning is the same old surveillance with new branding. Whether you call it a backdoor, a front door, or “upload moderation” it undermines encryption & creates significant vulnerabilities signal.org/blog/pdfs/uplo…

@ilyasergey No

When you review a conference paper, do you penalise it for not using all of the available page limit (assuming everything is clear from the present text)?

@crypto_carsten Just got a follow from you impersonator; is this a way for Twitter to increase verified accounts??

Fascinating, someone made a Twitter account to impersonate me. I mean, seriously: impersonating me? From all people out there? You should consider your life choices.

For now, we’re still in business…

The Wheel of Computer Security 1. Cool new platform to deploy code on! 2. Oops, it's completely insecure. 3. Add isolation vs. untrusted data and code 4. Oops, we can't build apps. 5. Punch holes in the isolation boundary. 6. Oops, still insecure and apps are lame. 7. Go to #1.

The ChalmersGU-KTH-Aarhus CTF competition just kicked off! 🎉🎉 Stay tuned!

@andrewkhirsch @UBuffalo Congratulations!

Several people already know this, but I have yet to make an announcement: I'm happy to say I'll be joining the faculty at @UBuffalo as an assistant professor of Computer Science and Engineering starting in the fall!

A reach-out to researchers in need in Ukraine. With a new fellowship programme - the AUFF-Ukraine research fellowships at AIAS @AarhusUni , researchers from a Ukrainian institution unable to continue their research are offered up to 12 months fellowships: bit.ly/3IYgoLJ

@dfaranha Bookmarking this tweet. Will remind it to the students when they reach the Compilers class :)

This semester I'm (co-)teaching Computer Architecture and we started doing bits of Assembly programming.

@deiandelmars Congratulations!

Super excited about this! All credit goes to our wonderful students!

@AndrzejWasowski I find Systematizaon of knowledge (SoK) papers in security venues quite valuable.

@musardballiu @KTHuniversity Congratulations Musard! Well-deserved!

Excited to officially announce that I completed tenure track and have been appointed Associate Professor at @KTHuniversity from January 1st. Incredibly grateful to everybody who supported me on my way - thank you all!

We are forming the PLDI'22 Artifact Evaluation Committee! Nominate yourself (forms.gle/pJJfStLXJwaqJm…) or someone else (forms.gle/nDtW7wtpkGvU8M…). For more details check our site: #Info-for-Reviewers" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">pldi21.sigplan.org/track/pldi-202…

@claudiorlandi GitHub pages***

@claudiorlandi GitHub legs is what we use these days. The content is still embedded via iframes so it’s convenient for the local students. My frustration with all the CMS we had is that they don’t provide any API to programmatically control the content.

I’m tired of the fact that the CMS of my university doesn’t allow outsiders to see my lecture notes. I believe knowledge should be public. Should I just put them on my academic homepage or is there a better platform for this kind of things these days?

@AndrewCMyers No. The CMS come and go and I feel that there is no easy way to persist the content for the future. So it’s now plain pages embedded via iframes into the CMS. We also have a home grown auto grader:/ What CMS don’t provide is API, which is exactly what’s needed at certain scale.

Our CS department uses, especially for big courses, home-brewed course management software called CMSX. It scales better to big classes than the commercial alternatives (which to me mostly seem badly engineered). I'm curious whether people are happy with what they are using now.

The PRiSC (Principles of Secure Compilation) workshop colocated with POPL is looking for submissions. Deadline in 10 days. Always an interesting event!

@ilyasergey depends on when your students will have seen it

How many bad jokes referring to “Back to the Future” should I crack in a lecture about asynchronous computations?
