The for loop is actually a poor way to do it, IMO. Even if behind the scenes, these are implemented via conditional gotos (like C), it may not be obvious what s going on to someone else who isn't familiar with the syntax. I'd opt

They already did that, twice. First with DVD which used a weak scrambling scheme that was defeated, then with BluRay which used strong encryption, but people were able to extract the keys. The problem with that scheme is that once any one k

I think you can actually unify both. That is, have both a system that lasts for decades and have people move with spontaneity. The key is to disentangle the system which dictates how things fit together from people's personal lives. Th
