Sounds like you need to stop relying on the dealer and find one of those old guru mechanics that can diagnose a car just by listening to it. Good mechanics are worth their weight in gold and I promise they’re out there if you look for them.

It was “a” post quantum proposed algorithm, not “the” post quantum algo. Don’t judge an entire field because of one proposal that didn’t work.

Avoid blazer like the plague. I use it in my work and the only reason why is because everyone uses C# and can’t be bothered to learn a second language. Take a wild guess which company that is. It’s an awful architecture that only exists bec

That’s a logic app plugging that allows for compatibility with framework code. M$ is a behemoth that supports old legacy code from businesses that don’t want to upgrade so I’m not surprised that they’re making things like logic apps compati
