Episode transcript:
Gary Starkweather was a scientist. Optical physics or “optics” was his specialty. That’s the study of how light interacts with matter. It could sound boring to some, I suppose. But it’s not boring to other physicists.
And it wasn’t boring to David DiFrancesco. David had spent some long nights at Xerox PARC working on 8-bit frame buffers with Dick Shoup. There he had gotten to know Starkweather during some of those long nights of research.
Starkweather knew a lot of stuff, including how to make digital matte film effects work. The most famous of these is the matte painting, of course, but there are other ways of working digital elements into a shoot. Like lasers. In fact, Starkweather had advised the embryonic Lucasfilm on the original Star Wars.
DiFrancesco was trying to learn everything he could about laser printing on film. How to take those digital effects and print them right on the film so it looked like the laser was shooting right out of the gun. Except DiFrancesco had bigger ambitions. He was trying to figure out how to print the whole movie. DiFrancesco had been a founding member of the Lucasfilm Computer Division that Starkweather advised. With their shared history at Xerox PARC and on Star Wars, DiFrancesco turned to Starkweather again as he was helping Pixar get started.
It was the right idea. In 1994, David DiFrancesco and Gary Starkweather of Pixar joined Scott Squires of ILM and Gary Demos and Dan Cameron of Information International in receiving a Technical Oscar for their pioneering work in the field of film input scanning.
How did optics physicist Gary Starkweather end up getting an Oscar? It began a long time ago, well 1969, in a galaxy far, far away, Upstate New York.

Starkweather was from Michigan, born in the waning days of the Depression, January 9, 1938, in Lansing. It may seem obvious given where he was born, but he went to Michigan State University and got a BS in Physics. He went on to get a Master’s in optics from the University of Rochester in 1966.
He went to work for Xerox at its research center in Webster, New York, just outside Rochester. It made sense for an optics specialist to work for a company making copy machines. He was tasked with increasing the scanning and printing speed of one of Xerox’s fax machines.
In 1967, Starkweather realized that maybe you didn’t need to expose the original paper to the drum that created the printed copy. He wondered if it might be faster to use a computer to generate the original document instead of trying to copy it the way a copy machine did.
In 1968 and 1969, he made his first successful laser scanning and printing prototype. It used a laser to project an image on a drum that could transfer the image to paper. It is said that Xerox execs weren’t that interested. Whether that’s true or not, it fits the Xerox exec profile of the time.
1969 was also when Jack Goldman decided to found the West coast research center, PARC, in Palo Alto, California. Xerox PARC opened, as you may remember, on July 1, 1970. It became known as a haven for research away from the meddling eyes of executives. In 1971, Starkweather moved west.
All laser printers are a variation on the theme first composed by Starkweather. The document is converted by a Research Character Generator into digital information readable by a laser. The laser projects a negative of the image onto an electrically charged rotating drum of the printer. Photoconductivity releases electrons from the areas lighted up by the laser. Powder called toner electrostatically sticks to the areas that haven’t been laser-beamed. As the drum turns, those toner particles get transferred to the paper. Heat fuses the toner onto the paper, creating the image.
One big advantage of laser printing is speed. The page is rendered in a single continuous process. There’s no stopping to start a new line like in an inkjet printer.
Side note: If you ever hear folks talk about rare earth metals being important for electronics, you probably just hear that. They’re needed for electronics. Well, here are some of the actual rare earths that go into a typical laser printer. The laser is usually made of aluminum gallium arsenide. The drum is coated with selenium, though more and more often that is replaced with an organic photoconductor made of an organic compound called N-Vinylcarbazole.
Once Starkweather was at Xerox PARC, he modified a Xerox 7000 copier to make a Scanned Laser Output Terminal, basically the laser projector part. In 1972, Starkweather worked with Ronald Rider and Butler Lampson to add the character generator and the control system that would make the whole thing work smoothly. Lampson, if you recall, also got listed on the Ethernet patent and was one of the folks who made the Xerox Alto computer happen.
They called that first fully working laser printer EARS, for Ethernet, Alto Research Character Generator, Scanned Laser Output Terminal. The name almost tells the entire history of Xerox PARC. EARS served as the office printer for years and eventually developed into the Xerox 9700 laser printer that went on the market in 1978, two years after IBM released its own laser printer, the IBM 3800. Another example of Xerox doing the research and other companies capitalizing.
Canon would go on to pick up the slack and offer a lower-cost laser printer, the Canon LBP-10, which was a desktop printer. But Canon didn’t have experience selling to computer users, so they partnered with HP and Apple.
HP would go on to be known as the company that brought the size of laser printers down to the desktop. The HP LaserJet was released in 1984 for $3,500.
And Apple used Canon’s CX engine in the LaserWriter, which used Adobe’s PostScript, which Jobs had licensed for $2.5 million plus $1.5 million against future royalties. Apple got the rights to use PostScript and a 20% stake in Adobe in return. This solved the problem of each printer-maker having its own proprietary page description language. PostScript described the use of text, fonts, graphics, and images independent of the printer brand or resolution.
Laser printers need to have a bitmap of the whole page in memory because you don’t want buffer under-run where the printer gets ahead of the data. Color laser printers store an image for each of the four colors used to make the rest of the colors, CMYK as you may know them. That’s 4 megabytes per page. That need for memory made all laser printers, especially color ones, very expensive.
The price of laser printers came down a lot in the 1990s as the price of memory chips declined and the speed of peripheral cables like SCSI improved so you could rely on a PC’s memory for more of the print spooling.
Color laser printers are still more expensive because you need four toner cartridges and methods like a transfer belt to improve color accuracy. The belt passes in front of all toner cartridges instead of the drum, and the combined layers are applied to the paper at once. Still, laser printers are better at monochrome than color. Laser printer resolution is usually 600-1200 dpi, less than many inkjets.
But the toner cartridges for monochrome laser printers, while more expensive than inkjets, last much longer. Meaning laser printers are about as affordable as inkjet printers and less expensive to run.
And what of our hero Gary Starkweather?
In addition to winning an Oscar in the 1990s, he also joined Apple and invented the color management technology that led to Apple’s ColorSync 1.0 in 1991. It’s an API for the Mac Operating System that tries to match colors so they look on screen the way you expect them to.
In 1997, he left Apple to work on display technology at Microsoft, where he worked until he retired in 2005.
He was elected to the US National Academy of Engineering in 2004. He died December 26, 2019, at the age of 81 in Orlando, Florida.
Starkweather got his master’s in Optics in 1966, the year the Optical Society awarded its first medal for work in optics to David J. Richardson. The award became known as the David Richardson Medal, and Starkweather received it in 1991 for his work on laser printers.
Starkweather’s story could have been one of unrealized potential if he’d listened to the East Coast Xerox execs. It could have been one of obscurity if he hadn’t lent his talents to help the folks at Lucasfilm and Pixar, or if he hadn’t moved on to Apple and Microsoft.
But his story ends up a happy one. The man who knew optics helped make a world where we can print out crisp, clean representations of what we see on a computer screen and even know that any colors represented there are close to what the creator of that document intended.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about laser printers.

Episode transcript:
In 1962, Robert Taylor’s future seemed galactic. The Dallas, Texas native was working for NASA on a new project called Apollo that aimed to land a man no the Moon. It had been a long road to this post. Starting at SMU, a tour with the Navy in Korea, back to finish his degree, slowly, at UT-Austin thanks to the GI bill. And eventually getting a Masters in psychology in 1959.
What were you supposed to do with experimental psychology in 1959? He toyed with getting a PhD, the route most of his friends and advisors had said looked obvious, but he wasn’t interested in the course he would have to take. He was integrated in psyhoacoastics. The applied physics of psychology.
He taught math and coached basketball for a year in Howey academy in Florida, but then the twins came it was time for him to find a better paying job. So he bounced around as an engineer designing aircraft, including the MGM-31 Pershing for Martin Marietta.
And in 1962, he submitted a research proposal for a flight control simulation display to NASA and they asked him to join the Office of Advanced Research and Technology.
Among the many people he met in his work there was Doug Engelbart, who was developing a suite of computer interface improvements at the Stanford Research Institute, including what would become the Mouse. Taylor made sure some NASA funds went Engelbart’s way.
In 1965, Bob Taylor took another step up becoming a deputy director and shortly thereafter, director of the Information Processing Techniques Office at ARPA. The Advanced Research Project Agency run by the US Department of Defense.
He kept helping out Engelbart and encouraged him to show off his progress at the Fall Joint Computer Conference in San Francisco in 1968. That demo would later be known as the Mother of All Demos. It showed the Mouse, the word processor, hypertext, graphics, video conferencing and collaborative editing, years if not decades before they would become commonplace.
If you’ve listened to our episode about the Mother of All Demos, you know what happened next.
Nothing.
People talked about how impressed they were. And that was it.
At least that was mostly it. The next year, 1969, the chief scientist at Xerox, Jack Goldman, decided to found a west-coast research center in Palo Alto, right down the road from Engelbart’s SRI. Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center or PARC was far enough from headquarters in Rochester, New York, that scientists could feel a little freer to experiment.
It opened on July 1, 1970, and began bringing in scientists who felt like maybe they had hit a brick wall elsewhere, to give them funding and freedom to develop new ideas. Among those early hires were many of the folks who helped Engelbart on his Mother of All Demos.
And one was a former ARPA director who had left to teach at the University of Utah, but found he wasn’t fitting in. Robert Taylor came to Palo Alto to head up the Computer Science lab there.
That lab would help develop laser printing, ethernet, Graphical User Interfaces, e-paper and even help popularize Engelbart’s mouse.
Let’s help you Know a Little More about Xerox PARC.
George Pake could not serve during World War II because he had Scoliosis. Instead he attended Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh and got his doctorate in Physics at Harvard in 1948. He took his research in nuclear magnetic resonance to Washington University in St. Louis where he taught Physics for four years before being named the head of the Physics department at age 28. By age 38, in 1962 he was Provost.
He could have lived out his career comfortably at Washington and been very happy. After all he had a shape in nuclear resonance imaging named after him, the Pake Doublet.
But Carnegie Tech physics faculty member Jack Goldman was chief scientist at Xerox.
His boss, the chairman of Xerox, Peter McColough, told the New York Society of Security Analysts in 1969 that Xerox was going to develop “the architecture of information” to solve the problems that had been created by the “knowledge explosion.”
As some tell it, McColough turned to his chief scientist after the talk and said, “All right, go start a lab that will find out what I just meant.”
Goldman says it was his idea, brought on by Xerox buying Scientific Data Systems. If you were going to have digital computer business you needed a computer research lab.
And who better than his friend George Pake. Goldman talked Pake into heading out to Palo Alto, California and starting the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
It was a good choice. Pake started an all-star team. Granted he drew from the folks departing the Stanford Research Institute as its funding began to decline. There was also a pipeline of fresh young minds coming right out of Stanford Itself.
The whole thing is a demonstration of good delegation. Mycologh trusted Goldman who trusted Pake who entrusted our old friend Robert Taylor to make all this happen.
Except nobody knew what it was they were supposed to make happen. McColough and Goldman said the mission of the lab was to develop the “architecture of information.”
That meant whatever anyone working in the lab wanted it to mean at the time. 1971 hire James G. Mitchell who came over from Berkeley Computer Corp called it “Tom Sawyering.” “Someone would decide that a certain thing was really important to do. They would start working on it, give some structure to it, and then try to convince other people to come whitewash this fence with them.”
An example of that spirit came when the first 20 people decided they needed to have a computer. DEC’s PDP-10 was the mainframe of choice. But Xerox had just bought SDS which made the Sigma 7 and didn’t love the idea of the press finding out that Xerox’s own research lab used the competition’s hardware. But building an OS for Sigma 7 was estimated to take about three years.
So the PARC team built their own machine from scratch. The MAXC (Multiple Access Xerox Computer) was so well made and cared for that it held the record for availability on the early ARPANet.
It was built using 1,103 dynamic RAM from a small company called Intel. A lot of those chips were duds so the PARC team eventually built a tester so they could find out whether they were a dud faster. Intel eventually used that tester on its production lines.
That spirit led to researchers building a lot of things.
Robert Metcalfe, David Boggs and Chuck Thacker took some work from Hawaii’s Alohanet and created the ethernet cabling system to make it easier to plug data feeds into systems.
Gary Starkweather invented laser printers and color management.
Bob Sproull made an early head-mounted display.
Charles Simonyi developed text editors that later led to Microsoft office.
Richard Shoup invented 8-bit Frame Buffer and developed Superpaint with David DiFrancesco who would go on to found Pixar.
Alan Kay developed object oriented programming and Graphical User Interfaces.
Charles Geschke developed page description languages and went on to cofound Adobe.
Lynn Conway developed VLSI design.
And of course Bill English came over from SRI with the computer mouse he developed with Engelbart.
Adele Goldberg co-designed the smalltalk programming language with L Peter Deutsch and once in 1979 refused to demonstrate it to Steve Jobs until her superiors made her.
This is only a small part of the huge team that made up PARC in the 1970s, and Bob Taylor was their ringleader. Famous for conducting meetings in bean bag chairs. His meetings were called “Dealer” as in beat the dealer, where open debate was carried out led by team members over ideas. The purpose of dealer was to figure out how to make things work and make progress.
All of that talent and all of that willingness to do-it-yourself made a lot of the bedrock of our modern computers happen, but the pinnacle of Xerox PARC is also sometimes seen as its greatest missed opportunity.
Butler Lampson wasn’t one of the folks from SRI, but he was one of the folks inspired by Doug Engelbart’s NLS demo in 1968. Lampson combined some ideas from the NLS with the University of Illinois’ PLATO system an conceived of a desktop computer with a graphical interface.
In September 1972, Butler Lampson and Chuck Thacker went to Alan Kay, of object oriented programming fame, and asked him if he would like them to build him a computer. He said he’d like that a lot and gave them part of his budget.
Apparently, A Xerox exec had told Thacker it took 18 months to develop major hardware systems. Thacker bet him he could do it in three months. He couldn’t. It took four months and 9 days.
That computer was the prototype of the Xerox Alto. A desktop machine with a keyboard mouse and graphical user interface.
With a few refinements thanks to the Xerox El Segundo team down in LA, they were Able to build 30 of them Everybody wanted one. Supposedly researchers would help assemble them in the Alto lab to speed up the chance they’d get one.
There’s lots more to that story including how Xerox was reluctant to get into the personal computer business. Even when Xerox decided to get behind personal computers with the Xerox 820, it didn’t use the graphical user interface or the mouse. The closest thing to it was the Xerox Star which Xerox marketed as an integrated “personal office system” sold as a package of 2-3 machines with file server and print server. The package cost around $50,000 or more. A Vic-20 at the time was $300.
In 1983, Bob Taylor left Xerox PARC, in part because he was frustrated that Xerox wasn’t using what his team developed. He quit and was hired by Xerox’s mainframe competitor DEC, where he worked until he retired in 1996.
PARC continued churning out good work with a prototype handheld meant for ubiquitous computing called PARCTAB. PARC employees were instrumental in developing IPV6, to expand the internet’s addressing system.
In 2002, Xerox spun PARC out into a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to advances in science and business. And in April 2023, Xerox donated the lab and its assets to.. SRI International. Yep the name for the Stanford Research Institute. The one where Doug Engelbart developed the mother of all demos, and where so many ideas and people had come from when Xerox PARC began.
On January 18, 2024, SRI turned PARC into its Future Concepts Division.
A bit of a homecoming.
And now I hope you Know a little more about Xerox PARC.

Episode transcript:
Ask a gamer about hardware and they will spend a lot of your time talking about the GPU. Ask someone about GPUs and they’ll spend a lot of time talking about Nvidia. But what is a GPU? And who invented it?
I can answer the first question for you. At least in enough detail for you to understand how a GPU differs from a CPU. But as for who invented it, the answer is nobody. It slowly evolved over the course of the development of computers and the need to power their displays.
Let’s help you Know a Little More about GPUs.
GPU stands for Graphics Processing Unit. You likely think of it as the thing that makes your video look better, particularly for gaming. Depending on your profession you might think of it as the thing that speeds up your editing or rendering. Crypto miners have often used them to process calculations needed for minting crypto coins. And if you work with the many AI models out there, you probably rely on it for some of your model processing. But what is it exactly?
At base, a GPU can perform certain mathematical calculations at high speed. That’s not that different from a CPU so what’s the difference? The GPU is designed to be able to perform the same operation on multiple data values at the same time. A GPU doesn’t need to do all kinds of operations like a CPU does. That gives it the ability to push through the instructions it is executing at a higher speed.
The earliest GPUs were designed specifically for controlling the display. Over time they have become more programmable to execute parallel-processing for multiple kinds of tasks.
And the GPU is different from the graphics card. The card is a combination of the GPU some memory like VRAM, ports like HDMI and cooling. The GPU can be included on things other than graphics cards, like integrated on the same card as the CPU.
The modern GPU contains a number of microprocessors, called cores. CPUs can have multiple cores, usually around a dozen or so. GPUs have hundreds. Each multiprocessor has a shared memory block and registers. The overall GPU has its own memory plus device memory from the board it’s attached to.
You may have a machine with what’s called an integrated GPU. This means you don’t have graphics card, just the GPU. The GPU processors are on the same card as the CPU for greater efficiency, though usually with a sacrifice of performance. You can add a discrete graphics card to a system with an integrated GPU and then decide in the OS which one to use.
A discrete GPU is the traditional GPU, that operates separately from the CPU. Discrete GPUs that handle graphics usually have their own graphics card. For other tasks the GPU may be on a different kind of card – like a special purpose one for cryptocurrency or AI purposes, or slot right into the motherboard.
So how did we get from just a CPU to needing a GPU?
Before the GPU there was the graphic controller. It let the CPU do most of the processing, and just coordinated what lights on the display to turn on and off. But it was too hard to do 3D with that kind of system. Work on 3D imaging experimented with single processors controlling single pixels in order to combine pixels in a short amount of time and render graphics that appeared 3D. Out of this effort came the GPU.
Arcade systems were the earliest examples. They used specialized video chips that composted data as the display was sent to the monitor. These became more sophisticated as time went on. Namco’s Galaxian used special graphics hardware in 1979 that supported RGB color, multi-colored graphics sprites and tile map backgrounds. Several other arcade companies besides Namco started using the Galaxian hardware.
The first implementation of a graphics display processor as its own integrated circuit chip came from NEC in the 1980s. It supported 1024 x 1024 resolution and was used on multiple graphics cards including the Intel’s first GPU, the 82720.
A few other notable GPUs came out before we got to the first modern discrete GPUs in the 1990s.
Hitachi had the first CMOS graphics processor for PCs with up to 4K resolution in monochrome,
The 1985 Commodore Amiga had a custom graphics chip and a coprocessor capable of manipulating graphics hardware registers. Texas Instruments released the first fully programmable graphics processor in 1986, the TMS34010. That eventually became the TIGA Windows accelerator card.
But a watershed came in 1987. IBM released its 8514 graphics system for PC compatibles. It also introduced Video Graphics Array, aka VGA with a max resolution of 640 x 480. NEC followed in 1988 with the creation of the Video Electronics Standards Association or VESA which developed Super VGA or S-VGA with up to 800 x 600 pixels.
And in 1991 S3 Graphics introduced the S3 86C911 which added 2D acceleration support. 2D accelerators quickly pushed general-purpose graphics coprocessors out of the market.
Sony coined the term Graphics Processing Unit, or GPU in 1994, referring to the 32-bit graphics processor from Toshiba in the original PlayStation.
Arcade systems began developing 3D graphics systems and there were several attempts in the mid-1990s to bring that workstations and home computers. Fujitsu took some of its work for Sega’s Model 2 arcade system into a single integrated circuit for home computers in 1995. The Fujitsu Pinolite, the first 3D processor for home computers was released in 1997. Mitsubishi released the first GPU capable of transformation and lighting for workstations in 1997.
Home computers usually had access to 3D graphics through 2D accelerators that tried to add on separate 3D functions, like the S3 ViRGE , ATI Rage and Matrox Mystique. True 3D graphics were possible with a discrete board but those lacked a 2D interface, such as Power VR and 3dfx Voodoo.
Renditions Verite chipsets were among the first to integrate 2d acceleration and 3D functions on one chip.
But the first of what we would consider modern GPUs in the 1990s combined the graphics controller with a rendering engine and lighting engine on a programmable chip that could work independent of the CPU. That off-loaded processing which sped up the CPU and thus the entire machine when graphics-intensive work was happening. It improved the performance of design programs, like AutoCAD as well as video game graphics rendering.
Fujitsu developed one called the “Thriller Conspiracy” project but never made it to market. Nvidia was the first to bring it to consumers with the GeForce 256 GPU also known as the NV10 in 1999. Nvidia called it the “world’s first graphics processing unit.”
Nvidia continued to lead from there, producing the first chip capable of programmable shading, called the GeForce 3, used in the original Xbox.
In 2007, Nvida released CUDA, a software layer that made parallel processing generally available on the GPU. That meant you could do other things besides just the graphics the GPU was designed for. Eventually that led to alternative uses like cryptocurrency mining and deep learning model processing among others. Anything that required a large amount of processing power with a narrowly-defined outcome.
There’s lots more to GPUs including Ray-tracing video acceleration and more. But this should give you a good sense of what a GPU actually is and what makes it different from a CPU. In other words, I hope you know a little more about GPUs.
At COMPUTEX hardware vendors are showing how AI’s impact in gaming will go beyond just NPCs and game developer tools. Plus the popular ‘Bartender’ Mac app has been acquired by a new unknown developer. And Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that Apple officially signed a deal with OpenAI to bring ChatGPT to iOS 18.

Episode transcript:
In 1944, General Douglas MacArthur waded ashore at Leyte in the Philippines, two years later after the end of the war, a young US Navy radio and radar technician sat in a hut in Leyte reading an old issue of The Atlantic magazine.
An article called “As We May Think,” by engineer Vanevar Bush caught his eye. Bush was concerned that war, which had consumed most of the first half of the century, had led science to focus on destruction instead of understanding. He believed that increased access to knowledge could change that. And he laid out his vision for something he called the memex.
The technology he described is not impressive to us today. Ultra-high resolution microfilm, viewing screens, automatic typewriters and electromechanical controls. But the concepts probably sound more familiar.
Take this for example. Bush wrote: “Wholly new forms of encyclopedias will appear, ready-made with a mesh of associative trails running through them, ready to be dropped into the memex and there amplified.” Pretty good description of Wikipedia if you ask me. Or Google. Or the internet itself. Other parts of Bush’s essay describe versions of what we’d call file systems, speech recognition and hypertext.
But the overriding idea was to take the information explosion of the 20th century and use technology to make it accessible to all, thus increasing human understanding and bettering the world.
That’s the mission statement of pretty much every tech company to come out of silicon valley.
But let’s get back to that radio engineer sitting in that hut in Leyte reading Bush’s essay. That article inspired that engineer to create technology that not only fulfilled Bush’s dreams but took them further. That radio engineer was named Douglas Englebart. And he would go on to demonstrate a desktop computer system that had a word processor, hypertext, a mouse, graphics, video conferencing and even collaborative editing. So many of the bedrock elements of the personal computer that we’re going to spend multiple episodes talking about each one. And Engelbart did it in a demo that would set the template for how every huge tech company: Microsoft, Apple, Samsung, Facebook, all of them, unveiled their biggest products.
All of that, from an attempt to embody Bush’s dreams, in one demo. In 1968.
Let’s help you Know A Little More about the Mother of All Demos.
It’s 1950. Now I don’t know if Mona Lisa by Nat King Cole was playing on the radio when Doug Engelbart proposed. But I do know she said yes.
That engagement got Engelbart thinking. He needed some goals beyond just “getting married and living happily ever after.” He decided he wanted to focus his career on making the world a better place. To do that you needed people to get organized on a grand scale, and to make that easier you could probably use computers.
That old idea of the memex by Vanevar Bush seemed like a good way to do that. You know. If it was real. By 1957, Engelbart had got a job at the Stanford Research Institute or SRI in Menlo Park, California, and by 1962 he had produced a report called Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework, which laid out his plan for achieving Bush’s concepts in reality.
The US Advanced Research Project Agency, ARPA, gave him funding and he started the Augmentation Research Center, the ARC. They developed the oN-Line System or NLS.
Now, the computing community of the time considered Engelbart’s ideas far-fetched. Computers were great but the idea that they could bring about world peace or whatever Engelbert was preaching, frankly made him sound like a crackpot to some. Certainly he had smart people working on interesting things, but nothing practical right?
By 1968 the NLS was far enough along that the team felt like maybe it was ready to show the public. It was ARPA director Robert Taylor who urged Engelbart to do a demo of NLS during the Fall Joint Computer Conference put on by the Association for Computing Machinery and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers aka the ACM and IEEE.
The 90-minute talk was scheduled for December 9th under the title “A research center for augmenting human intellect”.
They set up an NLS workstation in San Francisco’s Civic Center auditorium. But it would need to connect to the computers back at Stanford 30 miles away. So they used two 1200 baud modems- blistering fast for the time- to connect to the the SDS-940 computer at SRI.The display was projected on a 22-foot screen so the audience could see it. Two microwave links let them show video of what was going on at the lab in Stanford. Stewart Brand, the editor of the brand new Whole Earth Catalog was the camera operator in the lab.
It was a lot of technology to make a compelling demo to win over a skeptical crowd.
And Engelbart began with an apology.
“I hope you’ll go along with this unusual setting … it’ll all go very interesting… I think.”
He then began the demo by typing a few words on the screen, literally the word “word” several times. Then without fanfare, brought what we now would call a mouse cursor up into view and copied and pasted a few words. Then he saved it as a file, got prompted to choose a file name, he chose “sample file,” and well, he was demonstrating a Word Processor. And to us it’s a very barebones word processor. But to a crowd of people used to working with teletypes not monitors…it’s mind blowing.
He moves from revelation to revelation without fanfare.
“So here’s what I drew with a picture drawing capability. Here is a slight map, if I start from work and here’s the route I seem to have to go to; to pick up all the materials. And that’s my plan for getting home tonight but if I want to I can say, the library, what am I supposed to pick up there? I can just point to that and oh, I see, overdue books and all.”
Engelbart pulled up a drawing with a line showing points of travel. He clicked on library and got a note telling him he had overdue books. He has linked text in a graphic. In 1968. Links!
“Then I’m going to jump to a link. Here is the link. It says you want to go to statement ‘A’”
There’s a demo of Hypertext
“Okay, to talk about control devices, we’ll use this overhead camera shot, where you can see the devices that I’m using. I use three and they’re not all standard. We have a plain device called a mouse.”
And now he’s properly showed off the Mouse
“I don’t know why we call it a mouse, sometimes I apologize. It started that way and we never did change it.”
“So, I’m going to establish a collaborative mode between me and another terminal. Bill Paxton’s at a terminal back at SRI ”
Oh and how about some Real-time Collaborative editing. Long before Google Docs. Heck, before Larry And Sergey were even born.
“Now we’re connected audio, you can see my work, you can point out at it and I can see your face, we can talk. You’re silent.
What do you want me to say?
There’s nobody here but a large audience, Bill.”
Yeah. He demoed Video Conferencing too.
And then one more thing
“And our forthcoming involvement is this __ computer network, the experimental network that’s going to come into being in its first form in about a year and end up sometime later with some 20 experimental computers in the network.”
The Internet. That thing the ARPA folks who funded Engerlbart were working on. He had a hand in that too.
“we have a full office which is equipped like this with this type of a console that we’re very excited about. We invite you to come too.”
You even got to try it out yourself. Suffice to say Engelbart got a standing ovation.
And his innovations were immediately put into active use and the NLS became the desktop computer of the 1970s….Doesn’t sound right does it? That’s because it’s not.
It was an impressive demo. Nobody disagreed with that. But it was too far out there. Sorry. I have to get back to making my physical teletype work. Maybe I’ll get one of those glass teletypes, the monitors, but the rest of this? Well it just isn’t practical is it?
Engelbart kept plugging away but his team slowly dispersed. Several of them ended up at Xerox in its nearby Palo Alto Research Center or Xerox PARC.
By 1973, a lot of what Engelbart showed had been refined and integrated into the Xerox Alto, a fully functioning personal computer. No connection to a mainframe needed.
Turnabout is fair play though. The Xerox Alto didn’t revolutionize things either. Its extension of Bush and Engerlbart’s ideas were licensed sometimes “borrowed” by Steve Jobs at Apple and Bill Gates at Microsoft. In fact Apple licensed patents for the mouse from SRI for something like $40,000.
Apple and Microsoft became the leaders of the PC revolution. They sold people devices that let everyone do in the 1980s, what Engelbart described back in 1968.
“We start by building an instrument that we can sit at and work during our day, to organize the kind of working information we need as a task force, developing systems. We need to write our specifications, our plans, our programs, our user’s guides, our documentation, our reports and even our proposals.”
But the world didn’t forget Doug Engelbart. He was frequently credited with inventing the mouse and hypertext.
And his 1968 demo remained legendary.
Steven Levy wrote a book in 1994 about the history of the Macintosh Computer called “Insanely Great.” He credited Engelbart with kicking off the chain of developments that led to the Mac. And in writing about that 1968 conference, Levy described Engelbart as “a calming voice from Mission Control as the truly final frontier whizzed before their eyes. It was the mother of all demos.”
And that’s what folks call it today.
In every major tech reveal you can remember, there’s a nod to its Mother. Sure, the crowds are livelier and the speakers are a little more animated but at their core, they’re all just paying homage to Engelbart.
And you are too.
If you’re using a computer or even a phone, you’re using a device built on the designs that came out of Engelbart’s lab and developed by people inspired by how they worked.
We’re going to do full episodes that focus on just some of the major products this demo inspired. Clicked on a link lately? You used Hypertext. And when you clicked you probably used a mouse. Did you meet on Zoom or Teams or even Face Time? You probably used some kind of video conferencing lately. I bet you used a word processor. I not only used one to write this episode but took advantage of collaborative editing so our producers and editors could work on it too. Englebart showed off all of that, Hypertext, the mouse, word processing, video conferencing and collaborative editing, long before they were the commonplace tools we use today. We’re going to dive in and tell you those stories as well.
But for now, I hope you Know A Little More about the Mother of All Demos.

We look at a new LLM training technique called semantic decoder where data from scans of a person’s brain activity are fed into the model. As T-Mobile suffers another data breach involving hundreds of customer’s information including social security numbers, pin codes and address we ask why isn’t T-Mobile’s reputation taking a long lasting hit? And Google accounts now support passkeys to replace password and 2FA logins.

Episode transcript:
Two cases are before the US Supreme Court regarding protections provided by Section 230 of the US Communications Decency Act. Gonzalez v. Google claims that a platform, in this case, YouTube, should be liable for content it recommends to users. Twitter v. Taamneh argues that Twitter provided unlawful material support for failing to remove users from its platform.
A lot of people are talking about these cases. And a lot of well-intentioned and well-informed people are going to make arguments based on misunderstandings of Section 230. So in this special episode I want to cover just what Section 230 is and what it isn’t. In other words I’ll help you Know a Little More about Section 230.
We covered the history and meaning of Section 230 in depth in the episode About Safe Harbor in July 2020. So if you want the deep dive please listen to that.
This episode will focus on how to properly explain and think about Section 230 no matter what argument you may or may not be trying to make. You may think Section 230 promotes censorship. You may think it protects big tech companies from responsibility. You may think it should be repealed. Those are all reasonable positions to take. But I often hear people argue these sorts of positions from a starting point that is wrong. I just want to give you the correct starting point from which you can make your argument.
So let’s start with the folks who say we should just get rid of it. There is a misconception that if we get rid of Section 230 companies would have to take responsibility for the content on their platform or that they would have to stop censoring. Neither one of those things is assured.
Without Section 230, ANY platform. And it’s worth pointing out this applies to a forum you might run on your own website, as well as to Facebook. Without Section 230, any platform would be seen in the eyes of the law as either a publisher of information or a distributor. A publisher is responsible for what it publishes. A distributor is not responsible for the contents of what it distributes.
The easiest way to think about this is a brick and mortar bookstore. The publisher of the books and magazines it sells are responsible for what’s in the books and magazines. The book store is just the distributor. In fact a 1959 Supreme Court case ruled that a bookstore owner cannot be reasonably expected to know the content of every book it sells. They should only be liable if they know or should have known that selling something was specifically illegal. Otherwise the publisher is liable for what’s in the book or magazine.
Now let’s think about that for a minute. The bookstore can decide what magazines to carry. But it’s not deciding what’s in the magazine. And it still isn’t allowed to sell magazines that it knows are illegal. Also of note is that letters to the editor published in the magazines are still the responsibility of the publisher. Just because a reader wrote the letter doesn’t free the publisher from liability. Because the margin publisher chose to publish it. It exercised editorial control.
So the bookstore gets protection because it’s not exercising editorial control of what’s in the books.
Fast forward to the 1990s. Compuserve and Prodigy are vibrant new parts of the internet where people are talking to each other like never before.
It’s April 1990. Sinead O’Connor’s new song Nothing oppress 2 U (written by Prince) tops the Billboard charts.
Robert Blanchard’s company Cubby Inc. has developed Skuttlebut – with a K- a database for TV news and radio gossip. It’s a new competitor for Compuserve’s Rumorville. Rumorville is published by Don Fitzpatrick Associates on Compuserve’s Journalism forum. Skuttlebut and Rumorville are in stiff competition for the burgeoning online audience that wants TV and radio news industry gossip. This is FIVE YEARS before the Drudge Report mind you.
In the heat of the competition Rumorville USA posts that Scuttlebutt has been getting info from a back door at Rumorville. And that Skuttlebutt’s owner, Robert Blanchard got “bounced” by WABC. And– and you don’t do this folks– described Scuttlebutt as a “scam.”
Blanchard and Cubby Inc. sued Don Fitzpatrick Associates, but also sued Compuserve as the publisher. But here’s the thing. Compuserve did not review Rumorville’s content. Once it was uploaded it was available. Compuserve also didn’t get any money from Rumorville. The only money it made was off the subscribers to Compuserve itself, whether they read Rumorville or not.
In Cubby Inc. v Compuserve, the judge ruled that Compuserve was not a publisher. It was a distributor. It could not reasonably know what was in the thousands of publications it carried on its service. Therefore, like a bookstore, Compuserve was not liable for what was published in Rumorville USA.
Reminder. This is without Section 230. The platform was not exercising control over the content so it was not liable for what was in it.
On to October 1994. Boyz II Men is dominating the charts with a long run at number one with “I’ll Make Love to You.”
Prodigy’s Money Talk message board is still awash in talk about the bond market crisis. And an anonymous user posted that securities investment firm Stratton Oakmont had committed crime and fraud related to a stock IPO. Stratton Oakmont files a lawsuit against Prodigy alleging the company is the publisher of the information.
So you’d think, given the Compuserve case that prodigy is in good shape. It didn’t publish the comments the commoner did.
Except. It’s been a few years, and a few raging internet flame wars later, and Prodigy, like many other platforms, has developed some Content Guidelines for users to follow. It also has Board Leaders who are charged with enforcing those guidelines. And prodigy even uses some automated software to screen for offensive language. This is all good community moderation practice right? Clear set of guidelines. Consequences if you violate them. And even some automated ways to keep some of the bad stuff from ever even showing up.
The court looked at that and said, well, looks to us like you’re exercising editorial control. You’re deciding who gets to post what. That feels a lot more like the letters to the editor than it does the bookstore. The court wrote “Prodigy’s conscious choice, to gain the benefits of editorial control, has opened it up to a greater liability than CompuServe and other computer networks that make no such choice.”
In Stratton Oakmont v. Prodigy, the court ruled in favor of Stratton Oakmont.
After that case the law stands that courts will give you the protection of a distributor, as long as you don’t moderate. If you moderate the content, you’re on the hook for it.
So in other words before Section 230, you could either leave everything up or you’d have to be responsible for everything, meaning you’d have to pre-screen all posts. Your choice is either zero moderation or prior restraint.
Republican Chris Cox and Democrat Ron Wyden both thought this was not an ideal situation. So they wrote Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act which read “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.”
Those are the 26 words usually cited as section 230. But that’s just paragraph 1 of subsection c. There are a lot of other subsections related to definitions and why the act is being made etc. But there’s a second subparagraph of section c which is also important. It’s called Civil liability It reads:
No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of—
(A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected; or
(B) any action taken to enable or make available to information content providers or others the technical means to restrict access to material described in paragraph (1)
In other words, even if it’s protected free speech, the platform can take down content it finds objectionable and not lose its protections from liability for other content.
All of this is a long way to say if the platform didn’t create the content, it’s not responsible for it. ..with a few exceptions.
This is another part of the discussion of Section 230 that gets left out. Section 230 specifically says that this law will have no effect on criminal law, intellectual property law, communications privacy law or sex trafficking law. So the DMCA for example still has to be followed. You have to respond to copyright takedown notices.
So back to the two Supreme Court cases Gonzalez v. Google and Twitter v. Taamneh.
Section 230 does not let Facebook publish anything without being responsible. It just means it’s not on the hook for what I post just because it removes other posts. It’s an interesting question whether recommendations count as content created by the platform or not. It would certainly count as editorial control before Section 230, but Section 230 was put in place specifically to allow a measure of editorial control without having to take responsibility for all posts.
It’s also an interesting question whether “terrorist” content qualifies as criminal content which Section 230 does not protect. And should Twitter have known about it and removed the accounts.
Bearing on both those questions is one more case that tested Section 230 shortly after it became law.
It’s April 25, 1995. Montell Jordan’s “This is How We Do It” tops the charts.
And someone has posted a message on an AOL Bulletin Board called “Naughty Oklahoma T-Shirts” describing the sale of shirts featuring offensive and tasteless slogans related to the Oklahoma City bombings which had happened 6 days before. The posting listed the phone number of Kenneth Zeran in Seattle, Washington who had no knowledge of the posting. He then received a high volume of calls, mostly angry about the post. Some calls were death threats. Zeran called AOL which said they would remove the post. However the next day a new post was made and new posts were made over the next four days. One of the posts was picked up by a radio announcer at KRXO in Oklahoma City who encouraged listeners to call the number. Zeran required police protection and sued KRXO and then separately AOL.
In its decision, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit wrote “It would be impossible for service providers to screen each of their millions of postings for possible problems. Faced with potential liability for each message republished by their services, interactive computer service providers might choose to severely restrict the number and type of messages posted. Congress considered the weight of the speech interests implicated and chose to immunize service providers to avoid any such restrictive effect.”
It also wrote that Section 230 “creates a federal immunity to any cause of action that would make service providers liable for information originating with a third-party user of the service. Thus, lawsuits seeking to hold a service provider liable for its
exercise of a publisher’s traditional editorial functions — such as
deciding whether to publish, withdraw, postpone or alter content —
are barred.”
Zeran argued that even if AOL wasn’t a publisher, it was a Distributor and under the 1959 case, a distributor would still need to be responsible for speech it knew was defamatory. And Zeran argued AOL knew, because he called them about it after the first post. The judge however says that AOL is a publisher not a distributor plain and simple. But Section 230 shields them from the liability normally afforded a publisher. So you can’t just redefine them.
This ended up as a stricter protection for a distributor than the 1959 case. Instead of having to take it down once you know about it. Internet services were given a broader shield.
And that became the principle justification for CDA 230.
And if the Supreme Court follows that precedent it might also consider recommendations to be publishing behavior and therefore protected. That’s not the only way it could rule but it is a possibility.
In the end what I want folks to take away is that Section 230 doesn’t free a tech platform to do whatever it wants. It frees a platform to choose to moderate and exercise editorial control over the posts of others without having to assume responsibility for the thousands, and now millions of posts made every day.
It’s reasonable to argue that perhaps there are some responsibilities that should be restored to tech platforms through legislation. I think it’s worth pointing out that repealing Section 230 altogether would not necessarily achieve that.
So I hope now you have a firmer basis upon which to base your opinion whatever it is. In other words, I hope you know a little more about section 230.

Episode transcript:
My uncle said my grandma worked as a computer and I said you mean ON a computer and he said no, AS a computer and I said what was she a robot and he said I didn’t know anything
Confused, don’t be
Let’s help you know a little more about the word Computer.
The Oxford English Dictionary says the first recorded use of the word computer was in a 1613 book called The Yong Mans Gleanings by the English writer Richard Brathwait. He wrote “I haue read the truest computer of Times, and the best Arithmetician that euer breathed, and he reduceth thy dayes into a short number.”
Brathwait was using the term to describe a person who carries out calculations. A pretty common tactic in English called nouning a verb. The verb was “to compute” and the noun used for a person who computes became computer. Just like a person who rides is a rider or a person jokes is a joker or a dolphin who flaps is a Flapper.
So where does compute come from? As with many things in English it comes from the romans – via the latin computare – which was used to mean to count or sum up. Literally to cut strike or stamp together with. Something like a word describing a person who marked down tally on a clay tablet or some such thing.
It worked its way into French in the 1500s and then to English the next century. What’s fun about that is the word still exists in French – compter– meaning to count or add up. But when it worked its way back into French from the English word being used to mean a mechanical device, the French resistance to borrowing from English acted up and professer Jaques Perret suggested using ordinatrice elctronique, based on the word ordonnateur, someone who arranges things or puts them in order. Essentially electronic ordering up person. IBM shortened out ordinateur, and even tried to trademark, but it was too popular and was officially included in the lexicon.
OK so back to English. When did computer start meaning a thing not a person. Apparently 1897. At least that’s what etymonline says but it doesn’t give details or a citation. However that is in the time in which Charles Babbage was developing his Difference Engine, designed to aid in navigational calculations and his Analytical Engine, designed for more general uses. Babbage used punched cards that were being used to direct mechanical looms. Charles Babbage’s son Henry completed a simplified version of the analytical engine’s computing unit in 1888 and a successful demonstration of computing tables in 1906.
And here’s an interesting twist. A computer was not a profession until the 20th century. Nor was it a popular term for a mechanical device until the twentieth century. Human computers were used to compile tables in earlier centuries but it was World War I that made it a legitimate profession. Computers were people who produced map grids, surveying aids, navigation tables and artillery tables. As more men were sent to the front lines, most computer jobs were done by women. The same thing happened again during World War II. Several women with degrees in mathematics worked as computers for research related to and part of the Manhattan Project.
And people who worked as computers were the logical choices to work on setting up and maintaining electric computers. First general purpose electronic digital computer is usually acknowledged as ENIAC, which was completed in 1945. Six computers — the people — were selected to set up problems on ENIAC. The first six computers which you can call the first computer programmers were Kay McNulty, Betty Snyder, Marlyn Wescoff, Ruth Lichterman, Betty Jean Jennings, and Fran Bilas.
And from there the use of computer as a word for a person faded out. What we now call computers went from being electronic brains to electronic computers to just computers. To PCs and then phones. In fact the word computer may be in the midst of another transition as people more frequently use words like laptop, tablet and phone.
Whatever its future, here’s to the word computer and all the people and machines who have fit the description for more than 400 years.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about the word computer.
Apple reportedly indefinitely delayed plans for its lightweight AR glasses (the follow up to its unreleased first mixed-reality headset), over a dozen Chinese Apple suppliers get initial clearance to expand into India, and Meta’s Oversight Board recommends an overhaul of its nudity policy.

But my SysAdmin friend tells me it’s no joke. What the heck is it?
Confused? Don’t be. Let’s help you know a little more about Supply Chain Attacks.
A supply chain attack can mean a lot of things including people drilling a whole in a warehouse or something. But in the technology world we use the term supply chain attack to mean adding malicious code to software or hardware before it is supplied to its destination. This lets the attacker use it as a Trojan horse. Wait for the compromised admin software or network card to be installed within a company’s network, then attack from within.
Supply chains in tech usually involve multiple vendors. In hardware there is software embedded on parts that may be sent to multiple packagers and assemblers before finally being shipped out for warehousing and distribution. In software, multiple vendors may make components used in the software, some open source and some proprietary. It could be components or dependencies. Little bits of code that do one specific thing and save a lot of time and money so that developers don’t have to rewrite every piece from scratch. Like maybe a clock or a machine learning model. Even when the software is finally done, the software-maker may use intermediaries to distribute the software and to handle pushing out updates.
Any one of those links in the chain can be an opportunity for an attack. Supply chain attacks are conducted by sophisticated actors, often called Advanced Persistent Threats or APT. The attackers will usually conduct surveillance on a supply chain to identify which part of it has the weakest security. You can successfully attack a large well-secured company by compromising a piece of its software made by a smaller less well-secured business.
So the attackers look for an insecure network, unprotected server infrastructure or bad coding practice and exploit it to hide malware in the build or update process in a way that is difficult to detect. The software is released by a trusted vendor, signed and certified without anyone realizing it contains a backdoor or some other malware.
Supply chain attacks come in multiple flavors. Upstream attacks are the most common. That’s where the attackers infect an update, so every installation that updates, gets infected.
Other type of supply chain attacks can include:
Targeting development tools so the developers working on code unknowingly insert malware
Target dependencies – components of software that are frequently included in all kinds of software.
Compromise elements of automation like cloning repositories.
However it’s used, supply chain attacks are efficient because the attacker can just compromise one element, wait for it to appear in multiple places and then choose who to attack. Let’s say a company makes a component that is used in lots of software. Maybe it’s a network management component that goes into all kinds of applications from sales to HR and beyond. The attacker just compromises that one component, which then gets into hundreds of thousands of installs across multiple parts of multiple companies.
And once you’re into a network you can then install more malicious software elsewhere, so that even if the original piece of software is patched, the malicious attacker is still inside.
There are no end of examples of supply chain attacks.
The first supply chain attack was demonstrated in 1984 by one of the creators of Unix, Ken Thompson. For science. He was probing for vulnerabilities and wanted to see if he could hide a backdoor. So he built a compiler that put a backdoor in the login function. He also compromised the compiler that was used to compile that compiler so there wouldn’t be signs of tampering.
One common example is to inject spyware into a firmware installation for a consumer device. This kind of attack has been carried out against multiple computer makers like Lenovo and Asus.
Another example is to infect the software update process. That happened to hard drive utility CCleaner.
Of course the one you most likely have heard of happened to a company called Solar Winds. It offers a network monitoring tool called Orion. Attackers breached SolarWinds and managed to place malicious code in a software update for Orion. Yes the tool you used to monitor your network was compromised to let people into your network. Any company that applied the software update between March and June 2019 unknowingly installed a backdoor to their network. That ended up being around 18,000 networks.
The attackers did not use all these backdoors, but they did exploit many of them including ones at NASA, the US Department of Defense and multiple large companies including Microsoft, Intel, Cisco and security firm FireEye.
Another famous one that you may not realize was a supply chain attack, happened in 2017 when updates for accounting software MEDoc pushed out the destructive NotPetya code.
There are many more and you haven’t heard of most of them because a successful supply chain attack won’t attract attention. Most supply chain attackers want to run quiet, keeping activities at a minimum so as not to be detected. Some even rent out their access to other malicious actors.
Ok so how do we stop them?
Supply chain attacks are hard to defend against. The company affected is not the company that made the software. If you work in any kind of company, you know how hard it is to get people within the same company to cooperate to identify security issues. Now multiply that by one or more vendors in a supply chain to stop supply chain attacks.
So let’s run through the option.
A company could try to screen all its software– and it should– but it won’t always have access to source code and even if it did, will not always catch every cleverly hidden compromise. An update changes the behavior of software by design so it’s hard to tell which changes are intended and which aren’t. FireEye and Microsoft both missed the malware in SolarWinds’ Orion. Not because they are incompetent but because it was that cleverly hidden.
A company could try to write all its software in house, choosing not to trust any vendor. But that would likely end up having more security vulnerabilities of more kinds rather than less. It would also be much more costly than following best practices to prevent supply chain attacks. One of the benefits of using vendors is gaining their expertise and their security efforts at scale.
The common advice these days is to use fewer suppliers and hold them to higher standards of security and quality, while tightening up your own internal network security to make it harder for malicious actors if they do get into your network.
The US issued an executive order in May 2001 charging NIST with setting minimum security standards for a company that wants to sell software to federal agencies. This will cause many companies to raise their standards because they want to sell to the government. But companies who buy software and aren’t the government, can and probably should tailor their own standards as well.
Still, the NIST recommendations are a good template. There are two main areas of defense. Hold your vendors to a high standard to reduce the chance that you are buying software from a compromised entity. And develop robust internal protections that can detect and shutdown compromises if and when they do get in.
Among the security measures recommended for companies to protect themselves are the use of multi factor authentication for all users and admins. Uniquely identify and authenticate each service attempting to access critical software. Don’t trust something just because it’s inside the network. Maintain a software inventory so you know what’s actually running in your system. Encrypt data at rest and in transit. And there’s lots more about training, patching and monitoring. All meant to make it harder for an attacker to move even if they do get inside.
But you also want to make it less likely they get inside your software at all.
To reduce the chance that you are using a compromised vendor there are NIST standards for vendors as well. Vendors must engage in threat modeling, automated testing, code-based analysis, running programs in test cases to look for bugs, check all included libraries and other software and you know, fix bugs when you discover them. Basically make them prove they’ve done everything to help stop malicious actors from infecting their software.
You may be asking why these sorts of things aren’t already common practice. The answer is cost. Companies have been writing software or buying software on the cheap for decades, essentially relying on security through obscurity. Those days are gone. Auditing and certification are expensive but as more companies demand it, the prices will fall. And it’s worth the cost. Ask the victims of the NotPetya and Solar Winds attacks.
There are other movements besides NIST too.
The Consortium for Information and Software Quality for instance developed ISO standards that are the software equivalent of a bill of materials. It lets you know all the components that are in the software you’re buying, when they were last patched and if there are any known outstanding vulnerabilities.
This is a VERY high level overview of this topic. If you’re in an enterprise you should read the full NIST guidelines as well as some very good recommendations from security companies like FireEye and infrastructure providers like Cloudflare and Microsoft.
But I hope it helps you know a little more about supply chain attacks.

Episode transcript:
This episode ABOUT USB4 was originally released an episode about USB in March 2021, but several updates have happened since the the most recent in October. This episode includes updated information.
Enough of the preamble. Begin About USB4
I hear I can now get stuff with USB4. What the heck does that get me?
USB has been a mess and confusing and I don’t know if I want another number?
Also it relates to Thunderbolt 4 somehow?
Are you confused?
Don’t be.
Let’s help you Know a Little more about USB4.
USB stands for the Universal Serial Bus, a standard released first in 1996 to provide an industry standard for connecting peripherals and computers.
It is maintained by the USB Implementers Forum or USB-IF, a non-profit group founded in 1995 by Compaq, Digital, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, NEC and Nortel – it’s expanded its membership since of course.
Friends, before USB, each peripheral had its own connector and you couldn’t use the same wire or port for the other. Well there were a few exceptions but for the most part, a monitor had a VGA connector, a printer used a serial Port, a mouse used a PS/2 port and examples like that were many.
People at the founding companies of the USB-IF got together in 1994 to fix that mess and make it easier to plug things into computers and make it cheaper to make the computers because you didn’t need a separate port for every single peripheral someone might want to connect.
A team at Intel led by Ajay Bhatt produced the first integrated circuits to support USB in 1995. And Joseph C Decuir credited his work on the Atari SIO 8-bit communication implementation as the basis of the standard.
The USB 1.0 specification was officially released in 1996 and supported 1.5 megabit/second low speed and 12 megabit per second full speed data transfers. The high speeds were meant for printers and floppy drives, the lower speeds for cheaper peripherals with unshielded cables like joysticks and your mouse.
Microsoft began supporting USB in Windows 95 OSR 2.1 in August 1997. Apple’s iMac was the first mainstream product to support it and popularize it starting in August 1998.
It took off from there.
USB 2.0 arrived in April 2000 adding a higher signaling rate of 480 megabits per second and adding the Mini and Micro connectors.
USB 3 came along in November 2008 bringing superspeed capability at 5 gigabits per second and the blue ports to designate them. USB 3.1 followed in December 2014 doubling the speed to 10 gigabits per second called SuperSpeed Plus. And USB 3.2 arrived in September 2017 allowing for multi-lane operation to get data rates of 20 gigabits per second.
That brings us to the present. USB4 was released as a spec on August 29, 2019. And when you’re searching for info remember that unlike previous specs the USB-IF spells USB4 without a space between the B and the 4. All one term USB4.
While USB 3.2 was designed for use over USB-C cables – you know the small reversible ones–, USB4 is the first spec to require it. USB4 does not run over previous USB ports or connector types without an adapter.
ALSO USB 4 incorporates Intel’s Thunderbolt 3 spec. A USB4 host or peripheral device does not have to support Thunderbolt 3 but it can. The spec does require USB4 docks to support Thunderbolt 3 and hubs to support Thunderbolt 3 on the downward-facing ports – aka the one that peripherals plug into.
USB4 is mostly an attempt to simplify USB. The spec itself can be said to just tunnel other specs, like Thunderbolt, DisplayPort, USB 3.2, USB 2.0 and PCIe. It is therefore backwards compatible with all of those.
Also a USB4 connection requires USB Power delivery of at least 7.5 Watts per port up to 240 watts. So no more trying to guess if a USB port provides power or not by looking for the little lightning logo. It does. And it will make sure it only sends as much power as your device can handle.
The first products supporting USB4 arrived near the end of 2020 and the connector became common in new products released in 2021.
So what do you get if you get USB4?
USB 4 can share a single link with multiple end device types. So you can daisy chain. AND you get speed. USB4 devices must support 20 Gigabit per second data and can support up to 40 gbps data. And with video you can get an even faster effective rate. We’ll talk about that in a minute.
So while USB4 does simplify things quite a bit over previous USB versions you still have to check a device to know whether you’ll get 20 or 40 gbps. To help with that, packaging for certified devices can use simplified logos.
Starting from September 2022, you won’t see the words ‘SuperSpeed” or ‘USB4″ on packaging from certified USB providers. Since USB is an open standard, not every company will play along. However, if you’re looking at a certified products you will now see the highest data performance level that the product supports. So 40, 20, 20 or 5 Gigabits per second. If you’re looking at a USB cable you’ll also get the wattage of power that cable supports, so 60 or 240. Older designations for USB 2.0 and 1.0 are staying around. Which means if you see USB ‘High Speed” that means USB 2.0 which means a very not high speed 490 Megabits per second. And the rules don’t affect things like DisplayPort and Thunderbolt which USB can support, but is not officially part of the USB-IF’s own standards. So you’ll need to check separately for Thunderbolt compatibility.
Intel is no longer charging for implementation of Thunderbolt 3. And Thunderbolt 3 uses the USB-C connector just like USB4. That means a new computer with a USB4 port could offer compatibility with your existing Thunderbolt 3 devices. Could but not must. The spec makes it optional. Most devices seem to be implementing it because why not, but you will want to make sure it’s there if it’s important to you.
So how does Thunderbolt 4 fit in? Well some are looking at it is that Thunderbolt 4 gives you USB4 at its highest capacity with all its options. We have a whole separate episode on Thunderbolt 4 if you want all those details.
As I mentioned a minute ago, there’s also a situation where USB4 can handle more than 40gbps. That’s because it can also support DisplayPort Alt Mode 2.0 for high resolution displays. If that DisplayPort spec is implemented in a USB4 device it can transmit video data– just video data– at 80gbps meaning you can power multiple DisplayPort 2.0 displays at 8K and 60Hz refresh rate or one 16K monitor at 60 Hertz. And yes, a bunch of 4K monitors if you have that many. It achieves this by using all the lanes to send video data and leaving none to receive. So to get that speed you won’t share the connection with anything else but monitors.
Also if you’re not using every lane for display purposes, USB4 is smarter than USB 3.2 in how it allocates bandwidth. You could do that on previous USB versions but the lane would be split 50-50.
USB4 can divide up its capability dynamically. If you have a USB4 device that can support 40gbps, Your 4K monitor could be given 12 Gbps and your external hard drive would use the remaining 28 Mbps all on the same connection.
Oh and what about cables. Well good news your old cables will work. And other news. they won’t always work faster than they used to, except in a couple of cases I’ll mention in a second. If you have a 5gbps cable that’s all you’ll get out of it. However they brought in some exceptions
Now after USB4, the USBIF, indicated that there would be no more point versions of USB. And that the successor to USB4 would be USB5.
But that wasn’t the end for USB4. On September 1, 2022 the USBIF announced USB4 Version 2.0. Not USB 4.1. USB 4 Version 2. Technically not a point upgrade. It’s a version. It’s an update to the USB spec that enables 80 Gbps data performance over a USB-C cable and connector. Previously USB4 maxed out at 40 Gbps. The faster speed will be available over existing 40Gbps USB-C passive cables and newly-defined 80Gbps USB-C active cables. And for certain applications it can be configured asymmetrically to deliver up to 120 Gbps in one direction and 40 in the other direction. The most common use case is expected to be a computer sending 120 Gbps to a display. The new spec also enables USB 3.2 data tunneling to be faster than 20 Gbps and aligns with the latest versions of DisplayPort and PCIe. USB 4 Version 2 was published October 18th 2022 and added 80Gbps to the labeling scheme.
USB4 can now go faster over some existing cables if you have a USB4 Version 2.0 port. You can tell if your vendor calls it that but they don’t have to. They can also label the port USB 80Gbps, though in some specific cases it can do 120 Gbps in one direction. However you get it, if you get it, it will be good for your storage devices, your hubs, your docks, and your displays.
The next version of USB is intended to be called USB5. Simple. Hopefully. Barring USB4 version 3.
Right?
I hope this helps you cut through the confusion. Thankfully the USB-IF has helped us do that. Thanks USB-IF.
In other words I hope now you know a little more about USB4.

Transcript:
Somebody told me to check a wiki.
Isn’t that the totally crazy idea that anybody can edit a page? Wouldn’t that result in a total wall of graffiti?
Also Why Wiki? What does that even mean?
Confused?
Don’t be.
Let’s help you know a little more about Wiki.
When people say “A wiki” they usually mean a collaboratively edited hypertext publication managed by its audience through a web browser.
Wikis are different than other Content Management Software in that they are not built around authorship. WordPress, for instance focuses on posts. Each post has a day and an author but the connections between posts are less important. There may be a category or a tage but the date and the author are the main focus on a blog. Wikis on the other hand focus on pages of content and their connections. You might have a page about ponies and that page leads you to links to pages about horses, categories of animals and possibly related animated TV adventures. While the page will have a list of editors and who edited what when its likely to have a lot of those and they’ll be off the main page. The focus is on the content and how it fits into the rest of the instance of wiki.
The other thing about wiki is that they’re super easy to edit. Software, known as a wiki engine, governs the editing, usually through a markup language or some kind of rich text editing. And the users collectively edit and define the rules for posting. Editing tends to be wide open though access controls can and do exist.
Wikipedia is the most famous version of a Wiki (or technically, collection of Wikis) but it was not the first. Not by a long shot. Wikipedia came along in January 2001. The first Wiki was launched March 25 1995.
Programmer Ward Cunningham wanted to make it easier for programmers to share ideas. He was inspired by Apple’s HyperCard which was a forerunner of the Web in using hypertext and other hypermedia. It let users create stacks of cards with links between the cards.
Cunningham wanted to make a place where programmers could quickly create and edit interlinked information. The still young World Wide Web was perfect for this, so he put his wiki on his company’s website c2.com where it lives to this day.
He was originally going to call it Quick Web. Which could have led to a world of Quickipedia and Quickis. Perish the thought.
Thankfully, he was inspired by the Honolulu Airport terminal shuttle called the Wiki Wiki Shuttle. Wiki is a Hawaiian word for quick. So he named his new website the WikiWikiWeb. It ran on software written in Perl which was later named the WikiBase.
His idea was an open and easy way to build related pages of info.
In a book called The Wiki Way, Cunningham and Bo Leuf described three things that make up the idea behind a wiki
One is that all users, not just experts, can create and edit pages in a plain old web browser without requiring add-ons or extensions. Granted many wikis restrict who the users are and many have levels of editing privileges, but the Wiki principle is that creation and editing is largely unimpeded.
To that end they say the second important idea behind Wikis is that it’s not carefully crafted like a traditional encyclopedia or manual. It engages the typical user in an ongoing process of creation.
And finally it should promote meaningful topic associations between different pages, making it easy to create links and find out what pages exist. The focus is on the pages of info and how they connect with each other. In other words lean toward wide open large numbers of creators making meaningful information.
Because of this culture, wikis usually have prominent edit buttons and are largely text-based. They tend to have simple layouts that can be maintained consistently across all the pages in the Wiki instance’s site. Links are the backbone of the Wiki. Wiki software usually makes it much easier to create a link than they are in bare HTML. In the original WikiWikiWeb you created a link by using camelcase – the one where you have a capital word in the middle. You know by smashing the words together and capitalizing the first letter. So if I wrote Greenville Comets and wanted to link it to the page on my high school women’s basketball team, I would type GreenvilleComets as one word with the C in comets still capitalized. Some still use this method while hiding it in the readable version of a page _ so in our example Greenville Comets would be linked but there would be a space between Greenville and Comets– while others use some sort of simple marker like brackets.
Navigation in wiki-based sites is based on the link. Top level category pages can be created by hand that link to all pages in a category, but some wiki software makes this easier by offering a way to display all pages that link to a given page. Wikis often let users tag a page with keywords as well.
Most wikis also maintain some kind of version history so users can see what edits were made and why.
One of the most counterintuitive aspects of Wikis is their openness. While some wikis are restricted to users from within say, a company, many are publicly editable by anyone. That often leads to the criticism that vandals will be able to destroy the reliability of an instance of a wiki. In general a large and active enough community can quickly deal with such vandalism. However at a certain scale, like the Wikiedpia project, it becomes too large to constantly monitor all pages.
One of the main defenses against vandalism is making changes easy to see and undo. Hence the versioning that lets all changes be visible to all and the easy editing that lets people quickly revert things. Large wikis like Wikipedia also use bots. Wikipedia uses a bot called ClueBot NG, that uses its machine learning to identify and revert vandalism.
Other methods could include allowing instant edits from IP addresses of previously approved edits or only allowing edits from registered users. Larger wikis often have a role of administrator that can lock a page if editors are in an “edit war” where they keep changing each other’s edits. This lets the administrator use a discussion channel to help the community come to a decision about which version is most appropriate.
There are four main general roles in wiki-based sites. Reader, who just consumes what is written. An author, who creates and edits pages. A wiki administrator, who can mange edits, lock pages when needed and delete pages if necessary. And a System administrator who can install and maintain the wiki engine and web server.
Wikis also exist in an interesting legal space. Because multiple users contribute to the final product (final being a loose word since it constantly is being edited) editors could be considered tenants in common and all of them would have to approve republishing. And with anonymous edits that becomes entirely unworkable. However most public wikis use an open content license like the GNU Free Documentation License or a Creative Commons license, making the rights clear. There may also be an implied license based on the nature of wiki, but that area of the law is largely unexplored.
Wiki operators, and sometimes users can be held liable for certain activities though. A wiki owner who shows indifference to content they could control could be held liable. This particularly applies to copyright infringement. If you just let copyright infringement flourish even when its brought to your attention, you’re going to land yourself in court. Especially if you’re making money off the site.
And some argue that all users could also theoretically be held accountable for any defamation or libel on a wiki-based site, since all users have the ability to remove content, however that, again, is a largely unexplored area of the law.
But that lack of explored laws shows there haven’t been a lot of disputes about this in the courts. People generally have resolved disputes before it gets to that stage. At least so far. The set of all wiki, and particularly wikipedia, is a rather interesting success story of the open web.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about Wiki.

Data privacy. There's a lot of misinformation and overreaction when it comes to data privacy but that's in large part to the fact that there's a lot of lack of data privacy. People are rightly concerned. In this episode Tom describes very simply and generally what differential privacy is, and what you need to know about how it's used.
On DTNS we try to balance the idea that companies do definitely need to improve data protection with the idea that sharing data at all isn't a bad thing in fact when done right can be a very good thing.
Not just for companies but academic research and nonprofits benefit from research on datasets. However just taking data, even when names are stripped off, can lead to trouble. As far back as 2000, researchers were showing that the right analysis of raw data sets could deduce who people were even when the data was anonymized. In 2000, Latanya Sweeney showed that 87% of people in the US could be identified from ZIP code, birthdate and sex.

One attempt to make data workable is called differential privacy. Apple mentioned the use of differential privacy in its 2016 WWDC keynote.
https://www.theverge.com/2016/6/17/11957782/apple-differential-privacy-ios-10-wwdc-2016
What is differential privacy?
An algorithm is differentially private if you can't tell who anybody is by looking at the output.
Here's a simple example. Let's say you want to publish the aggregate sales data of businesses by category. Stores want to keep sales data private. So you agree that only the total sales for a category will be published. That way you can't tell how much came from which businesses. Which is great until you come to the category of Shark repellent sales. There's only one shark repellent business in your region. If you publish that category you won't be saying the name of the business but it will be easy to tell who it is.
So, you have an algorithm that looks for categories where that's a problem and maybe it deletes them or maybe it folds them into another category.
This can get trickier if, say, there's a total sales number for the region and only one category was deleted. You just add all the published categories and subtract it from the published total and the difference is the missing business.
And remember there's other data out there to use. Some attacks on data use data from elsewhere to deduce identities. Let's say you study how people walk through a park and you discover that of 100 people observed 40 walk on the path and 60 cut through the grass. Seems private enough right. There's no leakage of data in the published results.
But an adversary discovers the names of the people who participated in the study. And they want to find out of Bob walks on the grass so they can embarrass him. They also found out that of the 99 people in the study who weren't Bob, 40 walked the path and 59 walked on the grass. BINGO! Bob is a grass walker. Now I know it sounds unrealistic that the adversary got that much info without just getting all of it. But differential privacy would protect Bob's identity even if the adversary had all that info.
So what do we do? How do we do this differential privacy thing?
In 2003 Kobbi Nissim and Irit Dinur demonstrated that, mathematically speaking, you can't publish arbitrary queries of a database without revealing some amount of private info. Thus the Fundamental Law of Information Recovery, which says that privacy cannot be protected without injecting noise. In 2006 Cynthia Dwork, Frank McSherry, Kobbi Nissim and Adam D. Smith published an article formalizing the amount of noise that needed to be added and how to do it. That work used the term differential privacy.
A little bit on what that...
