I miss my friend Dan
In really unexpected ways.
I miss both him the person & him the famous person.
The latter was an inspiration for us all. The former was an ultimately good dude who gave more to the world than a person twice his age would be proud of.
I miss both facets of Dan
I started by telling the guy that DH and AES aren't based on factorization, then Thomas Pornin reminded him of the prior art (Eratosthene sieve), then Dan brilliantly finished him 🔥💪
