And yet, if I am suffering from a brain injury and no one in the last 30 years has seen fit to build anything other than a health clinic in my town, I'm probably pretty happy there's a nurse practitioner available.
Let's not make the perfect the enemy of the good.
And with all respect to the professionals in the field, casting operational stones at a technically valid solution seems... myopic.
- kasey_junk 7y agoThe professionals are trying very hard to tell you it’s not a technically valid solution. The math on public key encryption is not the issue, it’s operationalizing it. Openpgp is a disaster there. Note I’m not a professional in this field but I occasionally drink with them.
