I knew this day would come but I wasn't quite ready to have The Talk about IEEE 754 quite yet.

Cleric: Good sir, we heard that your village has befallen a terrible lycantropic curse.
Villager: The werewolves did it. They say they can remove it but they're asking for 100 bitecoins.
Cleric: Oh, no. Tell me it's not what I think it is.
Villager: Yep. Ransomwere.

The effects of our technical economy basically running on a giant mass of unpaid volunteer labour means a lot of people are going to be quite vulnerable and easy to manipulate given the right incentives. We shouldn't trust software devs to do the right thing.

We don't talk about this enough, but it's entirely true. If I was a malicious foreign power I would just go look through the top npm and Python package maintainers and offer them bribes to install backdoor ransomware installers.
Probably has a higher efficacy than cold hacking.

1970s & 1980s: Our mission is to achieve deterministic security and deductive, proof-based certainty of that security in our systems.
2010s & 2020s: Our hope rests in stopping laypeople from clicking on things on the thing-clicking machine.
ALT The horse sketch meme. The well-drawn end of the horse starts with the labels multilevel security, trusting trust, and formal methods. As the drawing gets progressively worse, the labels are firewalls, threat intelligence, machine learning for anomaly detection, and "prevent people from clicking things on the thing-clicking machine."

Strong Isolation is an inevitable shift that will reverberate through the industry. Understanding it now is vital to navigating the next round of scaled-out software. @BoydMulterer will give you a better insight with his talk at #CodeBEAM 🇺🇸

Strong Isolation is a foundational concept for us and guides all the decisions we have made on KOS, from seL4, to the BEAM (Erlang/Elixir), and much more.

Maybe it's an obvious point, but I'm just realizing how pretty much every Gen-X movie is about how working in an office is to be avoided at all costs: Fight Club, Trainspotting, Good Will Hunting, Grosse Pointe Blank, High Fidelity, Clerks, The Matrix, Being John Malkovich, etc.

To answer all the questions, yes, it’s true, Babylon 5 is in active development as a series for the CW. We have some serious fans over at the network, and they’re eager to see this show happen. I’m hip deep into writing the pilot now, and will be running the series upon pickup.
