Conspiracy theorists: the NSA has manipulated the standard setting process so HTTPS appears to be impenetrable, but they have a backdoor because of advanced mathematics beyond your imagination The real world, so much dumber than they could ever imagine: the secret key is 4

if you're building harnesses for real work, this is a great read on how Ramp built the shared platform behind its agentic products like inspect, glass, etc.
We at Ramp tried a bunch of agent harnesses and ended up building our own. Cloud-native, model-agnostic, tailored to our infrastructure and product. And we published how we built it: builders.ramp.com/post/build…

Oh god: The p384 private keys are randomly selected integers between 1 and 256, the private keys are effectively all-zeroes apart from the last byte

6 weeks on the Router team at Ramp! There’s sm doom rhetoric about being a SWE these days. But the products and way people ship at Ramp makes my jaw drop every day. It gives me inspiration and hope that a brilliant human touch will always have a place in our industry. join us!
Today, Ramp raised $1.85B at a $60B valuation. Seven years ago, Karim and I wrote our mission on a Post-it: “Save companies time and money.” Our mission hasn't changed. It’s just gotten bigger.

my hot take is that indian ioi medalists + dps rkp founders living/building in sf are going to create more value in the ai economy than the entire indian ecosystem

we put on a broadway musical about accounts payable. slate called it "a glorified ad for a tech company." correct. it was also the most fun we've ever had as a company. the part i didn't expect was what happened after. a flood of messages from theater folks in new york saying it meant the world to them. billy porter told the crowd that industrials like this paid his rent for decades, until they disappeared in the early 2000s. for most of the last century, when a company had something to say, it hired composers, choreographers and actors. somewhere along the way we decided marketing should be cheap, measurable and forgettable. i hope more companies lose their minds a little. make something people feel.

Pi 1.0! Notable here is that they've adopted a Cordis-esque runtime composition framework (they're calling it "chord"). We did the same for our background agent system at Cartesia. It's the only way to keep harnesses sane, since agents write self-contained flat plugins rather than plumbing changes through all sorts of unrelated code. I might experiment with using it for regular apps too, it's a neat model. github.com/earendil-works/pi…

What if PHASEONE10841 was a middle schooler and this whole OpenAI thing’s just been blown outta proportion?
An NPR podcast started getting a bunch of comments on Spotify that its producer didn’t understand. Turns out it was a bunch of middle school kids with tech restrictions finding a way to communicate online. They picked the NPR podcast because it was unpopular.

Opus 5.5 is awesome, it writes good code and barely makes a dent on usage

you’re all riling up over the $6,500. that wasn’t even an issue for us. the disclosure process itself was nightmarish, we had to get input from lawyers and eventually go to journalist one of the worst disclosure process.
Here is how OpenAI’s CISO fumbled the situation (in my personal opinion) 🧵 1/X

if i got $6500 for responsibly hacking a company that half the GDP growth of the united states is riding on i'd become the joker

We reported the bug to Discourse and OpenAI. OpenAI fixed the SSO issue roughly 14 hours after our initial submission. Discourse received our separate report Saturday, replied Sunday, and had a fix Monday. OpenAI awarded us $6,500.
