While the AI revolution threatens to kill countless jobs, leaving potentially millions of Americans in the lurch, maybe all those future jobless Americans can turn to the booming data center theft industry. Maybe AI is a job creator?
Ah yes, my retirement plan from the tech sector…
I find it mildly annoying that while the post is replete with hyperlinks, the 2 central terms “ietf-tls-mlkem” and “ietf-tls-ecdhe-mlkem” are simply quoted with no further elaboration.
I am no cryptographer, but after some searching around, my very first order understanding is that mlkem is a new algorithm that is meant to be resistant to attacks by a quantum computer. It is not time-tested at this point, however, while ecdhe is a current (albeit quantum-computer-weak) algorithm that has a solid track record.
Using both in combination is seen by some as a safer way to move forward, since mlkem may yet prove to have a fatal weakness and at least you have that fallback on the tried and true. Advocates also point out that ecdhe is cheap to compute compared to mlkem, and so the overhead of tossing it in there is not the end of the world?
Anyway, that’s all I’ve been able to glean so far.
I got the power station first out of necessity, but am now at the point of desperately trying to justify adding solar panels even though I don’t camp or anything. I fear it could become obsessive though.
Maybe I keep can limit myself to only as many panels as I own violins? That would be a fair number… Or at least cap it off at the number of musical instruments in the house? That would leave some room to grow, if I can count my wife’s ukulele collection!
