Abstract: A relying party validating a hybrid X.509 certificate --- carrying both a classical and a post-quantum credential --- must distinguish whether its accepting judgment rests on the post-quantum evidence or only on the classical path. To preserve compatibility, the separable designs place that evidence where classical path validation may ignore it. A verifier can then validate the classical path and accept while the post-quantum evidence never bears on the decision --- a valid classical result silently promoted to a hybrid conclusion it did not establish. We measure this across eight path-validation stacks (seven independent codebases), in nine validation modes, over six certificate schemes. Under a hybrid-required policy, nearly every stack parsing a separable hybrid certificate accepts on the classical path without making the post-quantum evidence outcome-bearing; one enforcing mode instead fractures interoperability over a signature-input encoding not yet interoperably profiled; and stacks that verify post-quantum signatures still do not enforce the binding by default: the gap is structural, not explained by missing primitive capability alone. Under lifecycle desynchronization the downgrade is realized: when a bound post-quantum credential is revoked while the classical certificate stays valid, the default path still accepts, because the bound credential lies outside the decision's scope. Binding success is not authentication success. We contribute a specification-derived verifier model and an executable, policy-parametric reference contract --- what a verifier must recognize, verify, make outcome-bearing, and check before reporting a validation as hybrid --- with a diagnosis of why standards do not require it.

Okay so the joke is still funny, but in reading the headline I thought this #TheOnion bit was going to be about how every movie is THREE GODDAMNED HOURS LONG these days. https://theonion.com/man-binge-watch…

Man Binge-Watches Entire Movie In One Sitting
COLUMBUS, OH—Expressing embarrassment at the sheer amount of time that had passed, local man Evan Pfister reportedly binge-watched an entire movie in one sitting on Friday. “Wow, I must have been staring at this screen for hours. Well, almost hours. An hour and forty nine minutes, to be precise,” said Pfister, who told reporters that […]

Immer noch wundere ich mich, wie die Klimakatastrophe ein linkes Thema werden konnte.
Auch heute wieder, nach Aussagen von SVP- und FDP- Politikern im Echo der Zeit bin ich ratlos: Wollen Menschen, die rechts wählen, denn nicht überleben auf diesem wunderschönen Planeten?

Ich sitze an einem 30 Minuten Stück für "das Wissen". Seit einem Jahr bin ich dran, habe diverse Reisen gemacht, bis Spanien (die ich im ÖR natürlich nicht alle bezahlt bekomme). Ich habe bestimmt schon 100 Stunden reingesteckt und es kommen noch ein paar. Eigentlich ist es fast schon Liebhaberei.
So richtig ärgert mich nur, dass diese Form der aufwändig produzierten und präzise recherchierten Reportagen künftig mehr und mehr in den Sendern ersetzt werden sollen - durch schne…
