I owe probably 50% or more of what I've learned about crypto and TLS to Thomas Pornin. He's extremely bright, used to be(and may still be) super active on SE, and one of the few people who both understands it well enough to speak in specifics, but does so freely. I'd absolutely trust anything he writes.
