So it appears that the author of this piece and the authors of the nearly identical Intercept piece [0] are skeptical of the "conspiracy to hack" charges brought against Assange. From what I understand, the action conspired toward

Ah, thanks for the response! So the number of messages you can send is precisely the number of keys that you generate at the start? How many is that? This also probably means you don't support long-running (think multi-year) conversati

So if I understand correctly, in order for Alice to catch up on the messages she might've missed, she decrypts the pointer to the HEAD of the message chain, and then decrypts that message. That ciphertext contains the address to the pr

I would guess most languages with a few million speakers have words for a lot of colors. But I think the argument here is that "baby blue" or "sky blue" is not one of English's "base" colors, but is rath

Well it seems you already got the memo, but #rust on Moznet is maybe my favorite IRC channel. Everyone is super knowledgeable, respectful, and helpful. For more casual conversation there's also #rust-offtopic.

I'm curious: why didn't proof-of-work get adopted into some email protocol? It seems like a reasonable solution to the junk mail problem. Things like mailing lists would be disadvantaged in this case, but you could reasonably disa

I like the following definition: p is a prime in a ring R iff the ideal generated by p is a prime ideal of R. Equivalently, p is prime iff p | ab implies p | a or p | b. The only issue with this definition is that you're forced to admi
