How is it imperfect information? Isn't each guess made openly?

I don't understand how what I said can be downvoted while also people are shaming it as "another project in the Google graveyard". To me it's a matter of framing---sort of what my point is here---it was framed as a kind

Follow-up: apparently there is a sidebar. In my defense, on mobile, the sidebar is closed by default, and you have to click the tiny hamburger menu in the very bottom left of the screen. I did not see this.

Where is this documentation? Honestly I don't see much here. I'd call this a readme, not documentation.

I don't even know what this library is (quite an ungooglable name), but I don't get it. It's open source licensed. Why not just, like, not "close" it? Just keep the code and the docs up.

It'd be sort of a funny situation if this happened now, because a fork necessarily rolls back recent transactions. So, imagine if people are made aware of a break, and it caused a bank run (on Bitcoin for let's say). Well, tons of

That is exactly why the term "post-quantum crypto" was coined and why it's being pushed. [1] For confidential data, the only rational thing to do is assume asymmetric crypto is already broken, or will be broken soon. And for

Not too surprising as he is the author (giggle emoji) But really, there are very few "trustworthy" PQCrypto algorithms/implementations and he is the author of more than one of those.

Is it just me, or does this seem anachronistic? Like, this is a conversation I expected to blow up 20 years ago. Better late than never.

I consider the phrase "the same people" to be a slur. It's almost always implying stereotyping.

And not a good one. Digital artists' art outputs from a computer. And I "creatively and intentionally produce output" when I type prompts into Stable Diffusion.

Zuckerberg should learn to plead the 5th when asked about political intervention questions. He keeps apologizing, thinking it will gain him respect, but the general public only sees this as a grand admission of guilt (ostensibly for some cr

Another observation: with this setup, you essentially randomly jump into the middle of videos, skipping what is usually the most grating part of the show: the intro. In the intro to most shows/videos, there's annoying jingles, si
