NC #982 Pivotal Electric Aircraft, Project Gutenberg to Kindle, GE Indoor Smoker, Security Bits
Fred Turner is a scientist and biotech CEO who, like so many during this crisis, felt an obligation to act when the pandemic hit. In a matter of days and with the help of his friend Celine Halioua, Fred pivoted his startup, found a research lab, and relocated his entire operation from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Now, Fred and his team at Curative are testing thousands for COVID-19. Fred and I discussed his pivot, how he managed to get up and running within days, what those first tests were like, and what more we need to do to get widespread testing adopted in this country.

Deep dives
Apple's Post-Quantum iMessage Future
Apple is rolling out post-quantum cryptography in iMessage with PQ3, becoming the only app at level three in their new encryption categorization. They have leapfrogged Signal and their quantum-safe algorithm with regular key rotation adds a layer of security not seen in other apps. The Kyber algorithm is central to their approach, along with mathematical scrutiny from independent researchers for algorithm validity.
