A new gold standard review of 100 studies finds:

  • masks are effective in reducing transmission of respiratory diseases

  • N95 respirators are significantly more effective than medical or cloth masks

  • mask mandates are effective in reducing community transmission

Last week I had the honor of accepting the 2024 Helmut Schmidt Future Prize

Instead of a traditional speech, I gave this talk on the history of AI, the business of surveillance, & why the use of AI "ad targeting for killing" in Gaza should be illegal👇

Johns Hopkins is doing a long-COVID survey and apparently is having trouble finding controls -- people who haven't had COVID. If this is you, consider giving them some clicks.

🧵 I wrote ab the “is Signal secure?” manufactroversy on X. The Guardian wanted an explainer on why Elon & Jack were “concerned” about Signal. The answer, though, has nothing to do w/Signal’s product. It was part of an extended fight over whether woke NPR should be defunded & the CEO fired. Why? Because the CEO of NPR is on the board of Signal; by the Transitive Property of Bad People, Signal is thus compromised.

@Mer__edith on the 🐦:

«This is incredibly dangerous. It lays the path for centralized, device-level client side scanning.

From detecting 'scams' it's a short step to "detecting patterns commonly associated w/ seeking reproductive care" or "commonly associated w/ providing LGBTQ resources" or "commonly associated with tech worker whistleblowing."»

Found this really cool branchless binary search this weekend: https://orlp.net/blog/bitwise-binary-search/

It's a really good read -- and kinda reminds me of the technique I used to implement the Huffman decoder for HPACK, but used in a different way.

I ended up using it in Lwan, to look MIME Types from extensions. The lookup loop is so tight I removed the previous fast path using a string switch. :)

Boosting because that person is still struggling and looking for work! If there is some onsite work in Portugal - they are also happy to do it!

My friend in the Portugal is still seeking employment, but now is unfortunately on the brink of having his family become homeless. They have been looking for work for few months now and have lost two contracts in a row that were supposed to keep them afloat.

It isn't easy time for anyone, but if you could donate even a bit to his gofundme campaign - it well help a lot:

Thank you, and please boost for visibility!

Quoting @matthew_d_green from the hellsite:

“Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure, with assistance from Elon Musk. The goal seems to be to get activists to switch away from encrypted Signal to mostly-unencrypted Telegram”

Someone said it's important say this publicly in the US: so I will. (And I think each of us should, online and to friends)

This November I will vote for Biden.

I would regard not voting for Biden, particularly in: PA, OH, MI, WI, IN, IL,VA, GA, FL, AZ, ME, NC, NH, etc. as a huge error. I'd be disappointed to find out anyone I knew didn't vote. It's one of a long list of things we need to do. We can't skip it.

And still? We deserve better choices, and in the future we shall have them.

Telegram is notoriously insecure and routinely cooperates with govs behind the scenes while talking a big game about speech and privacy. Even their limited opt-in (roll their own) encryption is sus. The more you know 🌈

Now Elon Musk is spreading FUD about Signal. If you needed another vote of confidence that Signal (end-to-end encrypted messenger maintained by a nonprofit) is the real deal, there you have it:

Signal is fantastic! It works fine! I just don't understand why organisations such as Extinction Rebellion still use, gulp, Telegram for their groups. I just don't. A nice extra is that you can create your own stickerpacks so organisations can use those for extra, custom, attention in messages. I mean ❤

They are super private, too.
And they create a sense of community because if you can spare a little bit of money you can even support them; they are nonprofit. Sigh.

This is your regular reminder that most communications on Telegram are not end-to-end encrypted. Channels and groups are never end-to-end encrypted and 1-on-1 messages are only end-to-end when explicitly enabled.
