Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

We hear it all the time: Since the turn of the 2010s, thanks to the rise of tech, the US has pulled ahead economically. This idea is everywhere from Washington to Davos—and it's paralyzing Europe But it's simply not true! Let's look at what's really happening, with charts🧵

In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't,' notes the experiment creator

This experiment (authored by several well-known mathematicians) revives an archaic practice (last seen in the era of Gauss) of posting encrypted proofs before revealing them: https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.05192 . Here, the challenge is to see whether 10 research-level problems (that arose in the course of the authors research) are amenable to modern AI tools within a fixed time period (until Feb 13).

The problems appear to be out of reach of current "one-shot" AI prompts, but were solved by human domain experts, and would presumably a fair fraction would also be solvable by other domain experts equipped with AI tools. They are technical enough that a non-domain-expert would struggle to verify any AI-generated output on these problems, so it seems quite challenging to me to have such a non-expert solve any of these problems, but one could always be surprised. It will be interesting to see if there were any notable outcomes to this experiment by the expiration of the time linit.

"The Trump admin is urging other nations to press a tiny Pacific island country to withdraw a UN draft resolution supporting strong action to prevent climate change, including reparations for damage caused by any nation that fails to take action.

In guidance issued this week to all U.S. embassies and consulates abroad, the State Department said it “strongly objects” to the proposal being discussed and that its adoption “could pose a major threat to US industry.”"

När andra politiska aktörer rättar sig efter lagstiftningen fortsätter en ensam, välfinansierad tankesmedja som vanligt och kringgår reglerna. Det är ett demokratiskt problem, skriver Kent Vihelmsson

Hypersonica has emerged from stealth, announcing a €23.3 million Series A funding round and the successful completion of a hypersonic missile test.

Vänta lite... Så 18-20 TWh är vad regeringens kärnkraft i BÄSTA FALL ger 2035. Fantasier om TIO REAKTORER till 2045 skulle då ge fem gånger så mycket, 90-100 TWh/år. Är det vad vi pratar om? För jag minns när regeringen 4 nov 2024 avslog planerad 130-140TWh havsbaserad vindkraft i Östersjön.

Fler åtgärder för ny kärnkraft

The daft thing is that with Proportional Representation there'd be no need for this self-destructive war within Labour. It could split into its component parts - left and right - and people could vote for what they wanted. It's only First-Past-the-Post that forces these irreconcilables together.

Intressant att Forssell nämner gymnasielagen. Tidöpolitiker smög ut ur den debatten för några år sedan. Så, vad anser migrationsministern att Sverige borde ha gjort 2018. Utvisat ungdomarna så att de i dag fått leva i talibanernas Afghanistan? Och gymnasielagen blev en integrationssuccé.

Forssell om tonårsutvisningar:...
