It could have to do with the NSA's August 2015 plan for transitioning to quantum-resistant algorithms. In their new Commercial National Security Algorithm (CNSA) Suite, they advise a minimum 3072-bit RSA modulus: https://www

By any chance do you use the HTTPS Everywhere browser extension? If so, try disabling it. A friend of mine just figured out (after a few days not understanding the strange errors) that the extension is incompatible with nbcolympics.com.

I disagree. Many (probably most) makefiles conform to the GNU Coding Standards, which recommend declaring "all" to be the default make target. `make all` does not install; that's what `make install` is for. https:/&#x2F

No... tadfisher's point was that even if a fixed version of git is installed, some other program -- say, a wrapper script for git -- might still invoke OS X's vulnerable version if it directly references "/usr/bin&#

Yeah, I merely wanted to reference the old discussion in the hope that it might improve the discussion today. I think it's fine when a story gets discussed multiple times.

ACM did at least acknowledge Merkle in 1996, along with Adleman, Diffie, Hellman, Rivest, and Shamir, in the inaugural Paris Kanellakis Award[1]. Merkle has an article on his website about the history of his public-key cryptography work[2].
