I find it incredibly odd that I've never considered this before. I suppose end-to-end encryption is today's only defense against top-down surveillance. That said, I wonder if meshnet protocol could be utilized as an alternative. A

As essential as computational literacy has become, I feel a bit uneasy here. Take mathematics for instance. What students learn in school is important, yes, but it causes a hatred toward math in general. In a typical high school, 90% of kid

Interesting. This is a great example of the power in abstraction. By continually building upon available tools, we're able to develop new, higher level toolkits that can be used to further the process. Ironically, this project steps ba
