There is no practical benefit for Kyber developers to have chosen a PQC key-exchange algorithm. The Kyber ransom note gives victims one week to respond. Quantum computers capable of running Shor’s algorithm—the series of mathematical equations that allow the breakage of RSA and ECC (elliptic curve cryptography)—are, at a minimum, three years away and likely much further. A Kyber variant that targets systems running VMware,  meanwhile, claims to use ML-KEM as well. Rapid7 said its look under the hood revealed that, in fact, it uses RSA with 4096-bit keys, a strength that will take even longer for Shor’s algorithm to break.…

American Airlines CEO Robert Isom said a potential merger with rival United Airlines would hurt consumers and would be anticompetitive.United CEO Scott Kirby floated the idea of a possible merger with American to a Trump administration official earlier this year, according to people familiar with the matter, eyeing a global expansion that could take on other international carriers.”Merging the world’s two largest airline together, that was a nonstarter from the get-go,” Isom told CNBC’s Phil LeBeau on Thursday, shortly after the company reported first-quarter results. “At the end of the day there’s no way to view that as anything but…

The gravitational constant, affectionally known as “Big G,” is one of the most fundamental constants of our universe. Its value describes the strength of the gravitational force acting on two masses separated by a given distance—or if you want to be relativistic about it, the amount a given mass curves space-time. Physicists have a solid ballpark figure for the value of Big G, but they’ve been trying to measure it ever more precisely for more than two centuries, each effort yielding slightly different values. And we do mean slight: The values vary by roughly one part in 10,000. Still, other…
