I usually struggle not with the “what is it you do?” question but with the following “how is it useful/applicable?” How do I concisely describe the long chain between a fundamental research and something tangible?

If something got out to the internet, you won't get it back. There is little point in rewriting repo history if you have already made a secret public. Just change the secret as soon as you can.
