This is exactly why I'm against using LLMs even for coding, which seems to be one of the vanishingly few domains (obviously not counting slop and revenge porn) where there's a substantial following for them outside of management. So many who claim, or rather insist that they're more productive - but they're lying, mostly to themselves, but also to their colleagues and customers. The bill just hasn't come due.

Not so much nerd sniping as nerd spray-and-pray: does anyone know a half-decent Jellyfin replacement which will stop trying to do weird fancy (failed) attempts at guessing show names and mangling episode orders, and instead just let me play files out of folders from elsewhere on my LAN?

@soatok Sorry to bother, but I'm down a rabbithole on key commitment, currently reading https://soatok.blog/2023/04/03/asymmetric-cryptographic-commitments/, and had a couple Qs:

1. for ECDSA sigs, doesn't rejecting S > n/2 preclude using deterministic sigs?
2. for ECDH, is it necessary to have the indirection of wrapping an extra key, instead of using the HKDF outputs directly? (I.e. using the ECDH output || pubkeys as the HKDF IKM, and deriving enc and auth keys for the main payload from that?)

Here's another of my software heresies: I don't believe in blameless culture. Somebody wrote code which failed spectacularly; somebody tested that code and approved it. The more important the code, the more important to get it right.

Doesn't mean I lack sympathy, doesn't mean there aren't ways this could have happened accidentally, but as the saying goes: sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.
