I really like the visual of the whack-a-mole, it's so brute force, and the game always ends with a flurry of activity... and cursing.
Re:Fastest growing OSS Security projects on Sunday January 01, 2023 @10:24PM (#34213880)
I think it's interesting that Rust is so rarely used among this list of security related projects.
would you like to schedule some time with us to dig into this further. This sounds really interesting and pretty close to things we've seen others do before.

To move this off of HN and to a channel that we look at more regularly, I'd like to suggest a couple alts: 1) GitHub Discussions: https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/discussions/categories/...

2) We can schedule a zoom call: https://www.ockam.io/contact/form

great feedback!
ha. love that.
We have two products. The first is avail under Apache 2 lic. The second is available as a paid subscription through AWS marketplace.

1. Ockam Open Source: It's all the protocols, packages, and tools (like CLI) for building things.

2. Ockam Orchestrator: It allows for running small to massive scale systems. It's also has add-ons for Okta, Confluent Cloud, various DBs...

Good question. It's a nested reference. I named the company Ockam as a tribute to a company that a mentor of mine built and ran in the 70's - 2000's. He named his company after Occam's Razor.

Aw. Thanks for posting this. Hi, I'm Matt, the CEO at Ockam. If anyone has any questions, we are happy to take them on in this thread today.

One good thing about data from Sequoia is that they handle payroll for a lot of companies. They know exactly what companies are paying each of their employees, so it's a really good data set from that perspective. It's not self-reported by employees, for example.
Re:Companies that build with Rust sponsor Rust developers on Thursday October 21, 2021 @09:48PM (#28952925)
"Concordium aims to fund developers whose efforts are critical to the Rust project but who are not currently being paid to work on Rust full-time. The DevX Initiative takes its lead from examples set by Embark Studios, Discord, Fly.io and Ockam"
Re:Ask HN: Do you donate money to open source? on Friday October 01, 2021 @01:24PM (#28721202)
We sponsor 5-10 individuals that work on Rust core, cryptography, and dependencies in the Ockam OSS library.
