It is high time we let go of the Mersenne Twister.
Even at the time of its publication, several defects of the Mersenne Twister were predictable, but they were somewhat obscured by other interesting properties. Today the Mersenne Twister is the default generator in C compilers, the Python language, the Maple mathematical computation system, and in many other environments. Nonetheless, knowledge accumulated in the last 20 years suggests that the Mersenne Twister has, in fact, severe defects, and should never be used as a general-purpose pseudorandom number generator.

Ok Google: please publish your DKIM secret keys.
Email providers like Google have made the decision, often without asking their customers, that anyone who guesses a customer’s email password — or phishes one of a company’s employees — should be granted a cryptographically undeniable proof that they can present to anyone in order to prove that the resulting proceeds of that crime are authentic. Maybe that proof will prove unnecessary for the criminals’ purposes. But it certainly isn’t without value. Removing that proof from criminal hands is an unalloyed good.
Luisa Neubauer und Carola Rackete stellen die Systemfrage: Wer hat die Macht, Verträge zu brechen?

Google is dead. We need a new Google (as of 1998).

Representative David N. Cicilline (D-RI), chair of the House antitrust subcommittee, said that The Markup’s investigation proved that Google had built a “walled garden” and that the practice was “economically catastrophic for other companies online.”
So what would Google look like without those walls?
