Let's opt for the simplest possible way to describe this. A good number of the proposals (in particular, the proposals that actually got close to being chosen), are based on lattice constructions. NTRU's underlying…
Are you a cryptographer? I am. I literally hold six patents around secure key generation and management. I stand by DJB's points.
because the NSA has never surreptitiously pushed bad standards they used to exploit before /s

> IMO the penalties for corruption in public service jobs (all the way to the top!) should also be outsized to match the damage it does to society. Tough to do when those who write the laws are a part of the problem.…
Your argument would be far more charitable if NIST had not already been caught pushing a broken standard at the behest of the NSA before. DJB might be combative and somewhat caustic, but the one thing he's never been,…
The problem with attempting to provide universal healthcare in the united states is that, despite health professionals attesting to the necessity and validity of certain health related topics, the current administration…
This feels like a strange take to me. With the internet, it has never been easier for people anywhere in the (connected) world to find an audience, which we've seen to great and detrimental effects. Prior to this,…

For a basic CRDT set, merge rules have to have some kind of temporality basis in the messages such that commutativity is preserved. usually it's a timestamp, sometimes it's an unforgeable value like a hash, e.g. A: {…

As you are someone building cryptographic libraries used by people all over the world, which includes those who might be seen as "enemies" by the organization in question, this is not a gradient — it's quite binary in…
It's insane to me that Stripe cancels accounts when they get used for card testing. I get that it's because the onus would be on them otherwise, but the problem is that the onus is on anyone but the card companies in…
How do you propose fixing the corruption?
PFS is valuable largely in stable, small groups that rarely change shape or association. PFS in an open, freely-associable environment is far more complicated when you move beyond even the smallest of group sizes.…
You can if the manufacturer has a track record that refutes the notion, and especially if they have verifiable hardware matching publicly disclosed circuit designs. But this is Intel, with their track record, I wouldn't…
It's simple. Don't comply. Software engineers, despite not having the same requirement of mechanical engineers, should uphold the ethical obligations of their craft. This law is harmful. Given the requirement of…

I had the same confusion reading this – what kind of go-based webservice framework can you discretely deploy new handlers without restarts/redeploys? Would be a really awesome thing to have!
or you're working in embedded systems, machine learning, cryptography, or any other specialized field where being clever is very important
You would likely enjoy Isaac Asimov's "Profession": https://www.abelard.org/asimov.php
The hard part _includes_ the crypto and the sandboxing. Short of playing security theater games like "chuck it in a TEE", the moment your data needs any kind of processing, or possesses relationships with other users…
With things like kpatch you can even update the kernel without a reboot
XSLT is great, but its core problem is that the tooling is awful. And a lot of this has to do with the primary author of the XSLT specification, keeping a proprietary (and expensive) library as the main library that…
