Such articles leave me with the feeling that there are probably a couple hundred people on earth who truly understand cryptography. The rest of us either blindly follow them (good thing) or try to understand and apply the algorithms ourselves (very bad thing). I'd love to see some sort of crypto-recipes.org site: with a listing for use-cases, recipes underneath and implementations in different languages. I'm sure crypto experts will look down on this, but I believe it would greatly benefit the community.
