Why is it that MacOS detects my keyboard as a JIS layout one, but refuses to apply the layout so all the punctuation is in the wrong places, and the only solution is to install a `.keylayout` file? Even Windows lets me select my keyboard layout manually.

If the TV loicense people are hurting so much for money as the news says, how can they afford to send me junk mail asking me to get a TV loicense.

It's kind of impressive that the only package I need to implement Dual_EC_DRBG in Go "securely" is @filippo.abyssdomain.expert 's bigmod package, since the `crypto/ecdh` package exposes just enough for the rest.
nb: I do use `crypto/elliptic` for the scalar-field order, but that can be removed.

I just spent my afternoon trying to figure out how to use HTTP over AF_UNIX in Rust, and ran into a giant tire fire.
My brain lacks wrinkles for Rust and it's ecosystem.
ps: Thanks to comments in a still-open bug in reqwest from 2017, I think I figured it out at least.

Time to find out how much MS uses Github repos for training Copilot, and how many people blindly copy-paste code for things that they shouldn't.

Sending me a profanity laced tirade about how your software broke because a downstream dependency of something I maintain moved it's repo, is not an effective way to motivate me to help you.

Well damn, the era of compiler-introduced timing side-channels is here.
In the Kyber reference implementation, Clang notices a bitmask is just selecting between zero and a constant and turns it into an if.
Very happy the Go compiler is not that smart right now.

An old friend noted that there is a distinct feeling of "I just lost a SAN point". Not only is that true, but lately I'm experiencing that a lot more than I should.

As an addendum, as far as personal (non-employer) projects go, Rust has been the safest language I have used because I rage-quit and delete everything due to friction before my code gets far enough to have bugs.

I feel like writing Go full-time for a decade has made me less capable of using difficult languages, but I like it this way - I can focus on what I'm trying to achieve instead.

After using Go for things that require concurrency and networking, dealing with async, tokio and hyper makes me seriously question my life decisions, and want to consume various mind altering substances in large quantities.

Comparing performance of RSA-2048 and secp256kr1 when:
- Both are implemented in Mathematica
- secp256k1: affine coordinate add/double
- secp256k1: add then double scalar multiply
Only shows that ECC is really fast, despite the best efforts to the contrary.
