Yes, SubtleCrypto is preferred when usable. There's two main issues with SubtleCrypto, a minor problem and a major problem. The minor problem is that it doesn't support much. 13 year old modern algorithms like Ed25519 and Ed25519

I noticed in July of 2022 that Go did exactly the vulnerable example and reported it to the security team. https://github.com/golang/go/issues/53849 It was fixed as of Go 1.21 https://go.dev/d

Yes volcanoes. "The Story of Earth" touches on it. Good book.

What cryptographic primitives are supported?

The law shouldn't be involved in this. Fix your systems. Tax payers should not be forced to defend poorly designed systems.

So that's how they address the state issue. They just ignore the problem! I always wondered how they addressed the state problem of cookie bearer tokens.

That didn't seem to do anything.

Sanitized, well formed JSON is generally not horribly URL encoded. It's typically less overhead than base64. Also, for well formed JSON (not arbitrary JSON), it also works fine in HTTP headers. I think those two situations cover abou

Yes. Regarding JOSE (JWS/JWE/JWA/JWK/JWT) I consider that point one of the core design differences I have with JOSE as it results in re-encode ballooning. That's separate from the fact that JSON was intended to be h

LIGO has three rulers. The difference among the rulers results in measurement. (Two rulers are on site, the "third" is the other locations.)

Any time base conversion comes up, I shamelessly plug my arbitrary base converter: https://convert.zamicol.com The base64 under "useful alphabets" is the "natural", iterative divide by radix, base. There&#x

As I said, that school is the among the lowest funded in the State of Colorado, yet it has frequently ranked in the top 10 in the State of Colorado. How is that explained?

That school, Connect, allocates much less money on things that don't matter so they can pay their teachers well. Prioritizing teacher pay is a must, but their teachers are also not outrageously payed. It's a matter of priority. T

It doesn't take a genius to figure out why so many schools are failing. Schools are failing for obvious reasons.

I was thinking exactly the same. I'm so accustomed to instructing computers by code. It is alien to see backend instructions written in English.

Encrypted data ideally is incompressible. Incompressibility is a hallmark of efficient cryptographic operations. See the Wikipedia article on Kolmogorov complexity, which has a short section about compression. https://en.wikipe

The timing of key stokes leaks information. Here's the 2001 paper that describes the problem: https://www.usenix.org/legacy/events/sec01/full_papers/song/...

This is the only way to ensure that no information is leaked.

Here's a 2008 article about a 2001(!) paper noting such timing attacks: https://lwn.net/Articles/298833/ >This weakness was outlined in a 2001 paper entitled Timing analysis of keystrokes and timing attack

Not the commenter. Aquifer != river. The overuse of aquifers is common knowledge. The commenter is making a narrow point about the river. I would like to see a response directly speaking to their concern, not something that is adjacent a

I'm curious as well, especially when considering humidity. Here in Colorado we've had two summers of historically high humidity. Last year humidity rolled in, the prairie greened, and then later the rains came. This year, the prai

Thank you for the response and links. The second link is particularly helpful. I'm surprised that Newton is equivalent here, but the reason appears simple: although the inbound observer's time slows, their velocity does not. A d
