Whoever thought that a beard is a good disguise has never: had a beard, shaved it off, and then had his wife and kids not notice.

I blogged on using FOKS to store, sync and manage API keys for your AI agents: blog.foks.pub/posts/ai-agent…

@bensima thanks ben!!

the co-founder of keybase has created an open source and federated version, so far it looks incredible

FOKS by @maxtaco "is like Keybase, but fully open-source and federated, with SSO and YubiKey support": blog.foks.pub/posts/introduc…

I've been working on a new system called FOKS -- the federated open key service. There's a blog post that got picked up on hacker news discussing the launch: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=445000…

@ambushalgorithm @btc_privacy You can DM me, happy to tell you more about warp wallet. It was a useful and successful experiment.

I did some ChatGPT research and found some security guys…maybe they can join the chat. But my best guess tells me with a high enough entropy passphrase it would make it just as hard as it ever was to get access to the funds. They created WarpWallet and Keybase which I think got bought out by Zoom @maxtaco @malgorithms

🚀 Big news! @SocketSecurity just raised a $40M Series B round to combat next-gen software supply chain security attacks and defend open source. The round was led by @AbstractVC, with @eladgil, @a16z, and top angels. We have big plans for the $$$ – see thread ⬇️ 🧵 1/10

@Shteyngart Have been, great spot. One ought to arise and go now.

Have any of you mothercluckers been to Innisfree in Millbrook? It’s nice.

Today is the 10 year anniversary of the first Keybase merkle root. Still chugging along. keybase.io/_/api/1.0/merk…

On the one hand, she is an absolute badass in that she can play the horn without a mouthpiece. On the other, I think she’s overly concerned about falling debris.

@laurenmechling I will ask!

@laurenmechling It’s not really answering your question, but my friend is now finishing up last year’s, which was keeping it to exactly “52 drinks.”

@lee_kovarsky The word “evolve” continues to evolve and now I see it used as a transitive verb. “We continue to evolve our strategy”. Barf.

🚀 Huge news! @SocketSecurity has raised $20M Series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz (@a16z). ⭐️ This funding fuels our mission to make open source safer for everyone! 🚀🚀🚀 We're also announcing 4 new products this week as part of Socket Launch Week! ✨ 🧵 1/10

✨ HUGE NEWS! ✨ 🤖 Introducing Socket AI – ChatGPT-Powered Threat Analysis @SocketSecurity is using ChatGPT to examine every npm and PyPI package for security issues! 🤯 In just 2 days, we confirmed 227 vulnerable and malware packages, all discovered with the help of ChatGPT

Today I'd like to share a free little game I made. I know it's 2023, but it requires a real keyboard (or gamepads), so no phones. It's for 1 or 2 players sitting at the same browser. Introducing Tippy Coco. tippycoco.com

@LeaKissner On web I’d also be worried about targeted backdoors but Facebook made some nice progress here: facebook.com/help/728172628…

4. Web. For this one I'm going to lean on @maxtaco 's experience trying to have safe and effective key storage when deploying E2EE on web. It was vehement. If someone's solved this, I would love to know. (Don't point me at Google Duo, they're making a new key every time.)

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. 🧵
