#standardization

Thor A. Hopland

You know I'm down with that #RISCV movement - to free the #firmware and free the #hardware. It is mui importante.

But fragmentation in the #computer world, (particularly in #opensource #desktop and #consumer standards) has the effect of making things worse.

#Standardization is key, in both #software - and #hardware.

Also, what the heck is bit switching?

@r @fluffykittycat @flower Obviously people have used the #RP2040 for many projects and given it's ease of programming, low price, excellent documentation and easy availability it's no wounder it does put pressue on #ATmega / #ATtiny, #Arduino, #Teensy, etc.

  • At least for low volume productions and prototypes as proof of concept.

#RaspberryPi shure are more and more targeting #embedded & #industrial clients given they do in fact disrupt the market as one can get proper #documentation and #tools without paying $$$$ upfront (AND sign NDAs) just to be able to boot #Linux on it.

  • And competitors fail at understanding that this makes #Broadcom look good and is their entry-way into acquiring new clients. Because selling hardware purely off specs may work in #amd64 land where shit's legacy and the way things work is so entrenched that basic stuff just works as in booting. #ARM and even #ARM64 fail at having that level of #standardization.

OFC the #Pi0 / #Pi0W / #Pi0W2 doesn't need to innovate since every competitor isn't even trying to compete but merely farting out boards with 0 documentation and some halfassed boot images and no post-sales support so they keep dominating by virtue of being the only ones that just work...

The journey to standardized metric threads began in the 19th century with Professor Marc Thury’s Thury thread, designed for Swiss watchmaking. By 1947, post-war collaboration led to the ISO metric thread standard, harmonizing global engineering practices. Today, metric threads power industries worldwide, from automotive to aerospace. Pioneers like Thury and the ISO standard show how innovation and collaboration create lasting solutions. #MetricThreads #Engineering #Standardization

🎙️ È online il mio podcast con @iusondemand su "Caffè 2.0"!

Abbiamo parlato del mio nuovo libro "Intelligenza Artificiale, Privacy e Reti Neurali" - un'ora di conversazione su come l'#AI cambierà (non distruggerà) le professioni.

La mia convinzione: l'AI creerà nuove opportunità per chi sviluppa competenze ibride tra diritto e tecnologia.

NicFab Blog · Caffè 2.0 con Valentino Spataro: Una conversazione sull'Intelligenza Artificiale e sul futuroÈ online su caffe20.it il podcast della mia intervista con Valentino Spataro nel programma “Caffè 2.0, Tecnologia e Legal”. Una conversazione di oltre un’ora dedicata al mio nuovo libro “Intelligenza Artificiale, Privacy e Reti Neurali: L’equilibrio tra innovazione, conoscenza ed etica nell’era digitale”, pubblicato in italiano (3 giugno) e inglese (11 giugno 2025). Un libro nato dalla pratica Durante l’intervista ho avuto modo di spiegare come questo volume nasca dalla mia esperienza sul campo: dal ruolo di Garante della Privacy della Repubblica di San Marino alla partecipazione ad alcuni gruppi di lavoro del CEN/CENELEC JTC21 per la standardizzazione e IEEE, fino alla importante membership nell’International Neural Network Society (INNS).

IACR Cryptology ePrint Archive · Breaking the IEEE Encryption Standard – XCB-AES in Two QueriesTweakable enciphering modes (TEMs) provide security in various storage and space-critical applications, including disk and file-based encryption and packet-based communication protocols. XCB-AES (originally introduced as XCBv2) is specified in the IEEE 1619.2 standard for encryption of sector-oriented storage media and comes with a formal security proof for block-aligned messages. In this work, we present the first plaintext recovery attack on XCB-AES $-$ the shared difference attack, demonstrating that the security of XCB-AES is fundamentally flawed. Our plaintext recovery attack is highly efficient and requires only two queries (one enciphering and one deciphering), breaking the claimed $\mathsf{vil\text{-}stprp}$, $\mathsf{stprp}$ as well as the basic $\mathsf{sprp}$ security. Our shared difference attack exploits an inherent property of polynomial hash functions called separability. We pinpoint the exact flaw in the security proof of XCB-AES, which arises from the separability of polynomial hash functions. We show that this vulnerability in the XCB design strategy has gone unnoticed for over 20 years and has been inadvertently replicated in many XCB-style TEM designs, including the IEEE 1619.2 standard XCB-AES. We also apply the shared difference attack to other TEMs based on XCB $-$ XCBv1, HCI, and MXCB, invalidating all of their security claims, and discuss some immediate countermeasures. Our findings are the first to highlight the need to reassess the present IEEE 1619.2 standard as well as the security and potential deployments of XCB-style TEMs.

OpenEoX to Standardize End-of-Life (EOL) and End-of-Support (EOS) Information

openeox.org/

openeox.orgOpenEoXOpenEoX is an initiative aimed at standardizing the way End-of-Life (EOL) and End-of-Support (EOS) information is exchanged within the software and hardware industries. Covering both vendors and open-source maintainers, OpenEoX strives to provide a transparent, efficient, and unified approach to managing product lifecycles. In today's fast-paced world of technological advancements, it's crucial for businesses and individuals to stay informed about the lifecycle status of the products they rely on. OpenEoX addresses this need by offering a common framework that simplifies the process of managing and sharing EOL and EOS information across the industry. Learn more about the concepts behind OpenEoX at the initial article created by Omar Santos.
