The Hashed Fractal Key Recovery (HFKR) Problem: From Symbolic Path Inversion to Post-Quantum Cryptographic Keys
Classical cryptographic systems rely heavily on structured algebraic problems, such as factorization, discrete logarithms, or lattice-based assumptions, which are increasingly vulnerable to quantum attacks and structural cryptanalysis. In response, this work introduces the Hashed Fractal Key Recovery (HFKR) problem, a non-algebraic cryptographic construction grounded in symbolic dynamics and chaotic perturbations. HFKR builds on the Symbolic Path Inversion Problem (SPIP), leveraging symbolic tr…

Miles Taylor fights Trump’s order targeting him, calling it ‘an attack on free speech’
In 2018, an anonymous Trump administration official delivered a stark warning about the threat he said the president posed with his erratic behavior. The author was later revealed to be Miles Taylor. When Trump returned to office, he claimed Taylor’s actions could be treasonous and ordered DHS and other agencies to launch an investigation. Taylor joined Amna Nawaz to discuss his legal response.

Bei dem Begriff "AI Literacy" handelt es sich um ein Oxymoron:

Against AI literacy: have we actually found a way to reverse learning?
So let’s get one thing out of the way: I think “AI literacy” is a dangerous device of neoliberal education and it deserves to be dismissed out of hand.

On the construction of a gradient method of quadratic optimization, optimal from the point of view of minimizing the distance to the exact solution
Problems of quadratic optimization in Hilbert space often arise when solving ill-posed problems for differential equations. In this case, the target value of the functional is known. In addition, the structure of the functional allows calculating the gradient by solving well-posed problems, which allows applying first-order methods. This article is devoted to the construction of the $m$-moment minimum error method -- an effective method that minimizes the distance to the exact solution. The con…

"What Stroustrup wanted was apparently what a lot of people wanted: a language that provided OOP features, such as those offered by Smalltalk, but compiled into binaries that would execute as fast as an executable written in C.
The solution Stroustrup adopted was not to adopt the Smalltalk model, but instead to take inspiration from fellow Scandinavians and to bolt ideas borrowed from Simula into C."
