Hmm. Ordered some extras alongside my C64 Ultimate. Since the homepage says they use semi-local warehouses, I felt pretty good about it. For some reason they send the three extras one by one, and I received the first one from Europe. Being a bit surprised by the delivery time for the next one, I decided to track it, and it’s coming from the US :-S. I sure hope this doesn’t mean additional import fees.

My talk at @… got accepted.

Utilizing Model-Free Reinforcement Learning for Optimizing Secure Multi-Party Computation Protocols
In this manuscript, we explore the application of model-free reinforcement learning in optimizing secure multiparty computation (SMPC) protocols. SMPC is a crucial tool for performing computations on private data without the need to disclose it, holding significant importance in various domains, including information security and privacy. However, the efficiency of current protocols is often suboptimal due to computational and communicational complexities. Our proposed approach leverages model-…

Find better heroes. Or even better yet, get over the whole stupid concept itself.
