LLMs won’t break symmetric crypto – by JP Aumasson

đź’Ą Read this awesome post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: đź’ˇ **What You’ll Learn**: On July 28th Anthropic announced new cryptanalytic attacks discovered using their LLM Claude Mythos: A key-recovery attack on HAWK, a post-quantum signature scheme candidate in NIST’s “Additional Digital Signatures” standardization project. Except for the toy version HAWK-256 whose 64-bit security is practically breakable, the new attack is not practical. But it's a meaningful break of HAWK’s security, as it reduces the estimated security level of HAWK-512 from its 128-bit target to at most 108 bits and, speculatively, as little as 81 (see Appendix C of…

Prime Agent: A self-improving RLM agent

🔥 Discover this trending post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: âś… **What You’ll Learn**: Today, we are launching Prime Agent, our self-improving coding harness designed around two abstractions, the Recursive Language Model (RLM) [citation] and Continual Harness [citation]. Modern harness designs were built around the capabilities of earlier generations of models, and they do not reflect what frontier models can do today: fixed tool-calling schemas and context compaction force the model to work around its own scaffolding instead of leveraging it. Static, hand-engineered sub-agents, prompts, skills, and memory are set once at design time and never adapt to what…

🔥 Check out this trending post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: Appreciating typography is a study in paradox. The primary goal of well-designed typography is to help you read the words, not appreciate how the words are composed of letters and how each of those individual letters has been designed to convey a small bit of meaning. If you see the typography rather than read the words, the typography has failed in its job, right? You should be reading, not staring at the shape of that uppercase A. The goal with typography is functional, right?…
