Holy crap. Lit team member @rictic.com used Claude to create a "How lit-html renders" video and it's frankly... jaw-dropping. Yes, it's a lot like my talk intro'ing lit-html, but that was a good talk! This is deeper, more clear, and has great visuals. lit-html-series-v1.a1.demo.rictic.com/renders/

every now and then, on X i’ll see someone joking about how bluesky doesn’t have an AI community bro, i switch from X to bluesky because the AI takes here are more interesting. My feed is almost entirely AI-positive

Two papers came out last week that suggest classical asymmetric cryptography might indeed be broken by quantum computers in just a few years. That means we need to ship post-quantum crypto now, with the tools we have: ML-KEM and ML-DSA. I didn't think PQ auth was so urgent until recently.

A Cryptography Engineer’s Perspective on Quantum Computing Timelines

The risk that cryptographically-relevant quantum computers materialize within the next few years is now high enough to be dispositive, unfortunately.
