While I'm highly sympathetic to competing priorities crowding out movement to pq cryptography. At the same time it's not sudden at all. It's been 10 years since nist first said "move shit over"?
- Valodim 1mo agoYes, and at that time the answer was "move over where?" now it's 2026 and x-wing is a draft still
- halJordan 1mo agoAh. This is a bold faced lie. There were plenty of options in 2016. Nist released final candidates in 2024 and published the candidates this year. ssh (as noted in tfa) has had pq defaults since 2022.
- blandflakes 1mo agoIn case you wanted to know, the expression is actually "bald-faced lie", i.e. unmasked, shameless.
- Joel_Mckay 1mo agoThey are also lying, it is an Italics-Faced lie... thank you, I will see myself out. =3
- saghm 1mo agoIf we wanted to make things really clear, we'd use strikethrough text for the lies!
- stryan 1mo ago"bold-faced lie" and "bald-faced lie" are both valid expressions. The original expression is "bare-faced lie" but they're all pretty similar to each other.
- blandflakes 1mo agobold-faced lie is just the usual English drift that was actually questioned as incorrect when it first surfaced. If a lie is bold, you don't have to suggest that the user's face is bold when doing it. You can in thirty seconds of google searching find numerous sources explaining that "bold-faced" is a malapropism.
- stryan 1mo agoIt's the usual English drift perhaps, but "bold faced lie" has been used since the 17th century, which is also apparent from "thirty seconds of Google searching". Three hundred years is enough usage for me to count it as correct. On a side note, "bold faced" does not mean the persons face is bold, only that it is said boldly, which implies a level of rudeness that "bald-faced" or "bare-faced" does not.
- Joel_Mckay 1mo agoColloquialisms and slang have unstable meaning over history, location, and cultures. Generally, something to be avoided by people striving for clearer communication. =3
- saghm 1mo ago> Generally, something to be avoided by people striving for clearer communication Their communication seemed pretty clear to me. If anyone actually claims that they didn't understand what they meant but would have understood it by using the other form of the expression, I think that's a bold-faced lie.
- freedomben 1mo agoI'm on the other side of this one, but take an up vote for a glorious closer. Well done good sir.

- taybin 1mo agoCalling it a lie is pretty heavy.
- hoppp 1mo agoYeah the deadline to move everything is drawing near I am actually not impressed by how fast things are going but all progress is good.
- calvinmorrison 1mo agoits ok we are still rawdogging ftp every day in the business world. The fax machines of the future truly
