@dionlisle @MelioPayments @FTPartners @AlexH_Johnson So what's the iteration after this? What's the space that's hopelessly uncool now?

@JohnKeilman @wischlist While they are at it, can they also lose Paulie's robot?

@dionlisle I remember not being able to convince people to take free BTC after my blockchain talks....

[Terence Spies @tspyz]

@sleevi_ @kennwhite The relationship of private key, public key, and certificate remains obscure to many groups, so security becomes a mysterious property of the certificate, because there's a constituency that is motivated to cloud the actual mechanisms at work.

@matthew_d_green Every crypto class should have a project to fix a broken crypto implementation in a way that can be deployed without breaking active customer implementations. And teach lesson #1: sniff the wire and look for plaintext before shipping.

@SteveBellovin @matthew_d_green @tqbf Policy-making cryptographer priorities: excise tax on random oracles, post-quantum security for child restraints, and hours finding problems with other agencies non-adversarial rulemaking models

@matthew_d_green Otherwise, I’d put BEL at zero, so every C string would end with a cheery *ding*

@matthew_d_green I’m assuming this is a trick question and the answer is “I wouldn’t fall into the innumerable fundamental problems of designing a Latin-only character scheme that confuses glyphs and characters”

@sjl Kinda got a Turner thing going on there. Beautiful!
