There's something weird going on with the WordPress.com <-> ActivityPub integration. If you access it, especially from a Fediverse server, sometimes it tries to respond with JSON.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the root cause to propose a fix.
> Note that block ciphers can be reversible. CTR mode does not require that the block cipher is reversible. However, it can be made non-reversible, which is how ChaCha20 works; it is a block cipher in CTR mode, but with an extra step to make it difficult to reverse.
100% correct. This is just a terse informal list of assumptions I'm making about the cryptographic primitives. It might seem silly, but I always include my assumptions with my security goals or threat model documents just so nobody has to guess what they are many years later if one of them is proven false.

It might seem silly, but I always include my assumptions with my security goals or threat model documents just so nobody has to guess what they are many years later if one of them is proven false. I think it is a good idea, actually.
- some_furry 2y agoSorry. If I figure out what's causing it, I'll upstream the fix.
