What Exactly Are TEEs?

Before we can discuss the application of TEEs for blockchain related programs, we first have to establish what Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) are.

At a high level, TEEs can be described as an isolated processing environment found on the CPU, a sort of separate secure area where whatever code and data enters remains confidential, where processes outside of a TEE cannot read or tamper with the data within it. These private regions of memory are known as enclaves.

By running code in this isolated, tamper-resistant processing environment, it "guarantees the authenticity of the executed code", where remote attestation can be provided to prove its trustworthiness to a third-party and untrusted code should not be able to interfere with the execution of a program within the TEE.

Ref: "Trusted Execution Environment: What It is, and What It is Not", Sabt et al.

Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

Presuming you have access to the Sourcegraph Docker container and the container name is sourcegraph:

1. Get the id for the admin account (should be 1 in most cases):

docker container exec sourcegraph psql -U postgres sourcegraph -c 'SELECT id, username, passwd FROM users'

2. Set the $ID variable:

Signing VirtualBox Kernel Modules

These are the steps I followed enable VirtualBox on my laptop without disabling UEFI Secure Boot. They're nearly identical to the process described on [Øyvind Stegard's blog][blog], save for a few key details. The images here are borrowed from the [Systemtap UEFI Secure Boot Wiki][systemtap].

1. Install the VirtualBox package (this might be different for your platform).
