He/him. Gay/demi dhole (Cuon Alpinus) furry. Blogger, programmer, security engineer, cryptography nerd. 30+ Too spicy for Twitter (banned with all the prominent journalists on 2022-12-16) I don't represent any company, individual, or community.

Heh.

I just checked the w3c cid repository and no one else bothered to report the whole "base58 is nightmarishly difficult to implement without side-channels" thing upstream, despite the FEP-521a folks insisting it's necessary and I said "yeah I don't want to bother helping blockchainiacs".

I can't tell if this is laziness or everyone else looked at it and went, "Yeah, blockchain is pretty gross ngl..." and did something enjoyable instead.

Y'know those hug consent badges?

They should make them for "does [not] know how to flirt" and "can [not] recognize flirting"

Convince business types that the "ML" in "SAML" stands for Machine Learning

I'm not religious and have no insight on the election of the next pope, but I'm going to make a wild prediction and say they'll elect the worst candidate for human rights; especially for queer people.

From what I'm reading, that's probably Robert Sarah.

Why is "pitchfork" different from "tuning fork"?

Isn't pitch a measure of frequency? Which is what tuning changes?

Language is bullshit.

Companies be like: "We want to hire a full-stack engineer"

Meanwhile polycules: "I'm in infosec, they're an artist, they're an applied scientist, they're a backend web dev, they're a project manager, and they're in sales. Looking for a dom"
