  • In college I was told over and over that SECURITY BY OBSCURITY IS NOT ACTUALLY SECURITY. So using thoroughly tested and examined security techniques from open source software is the gold standard.

    There are known secure algorithms that cannot be cracked by modern computers. So, no reason to try and reinvent the wheel and just hope your way is better despite decades of refinement and research into modern open algorithms.




  • You have a good point I was a bit too black and white with my comment. There definitely seems to be a correlation between size and violence of terrorist groups, and the human rights of the area they riside in.

    Also totally agree that it can happen to me. Gotta acknowledge that you don’t really know anything and you are pretty much always just taking someone’s word for things. I believe the Earth is round, but I’m just taking people’s word for it.









  • I see you. That makes sense. I struggle with the grayness of reality and the duality of definitions we impose on it yk? Not to say I’m against the definitions, just that things get confusing for me.

    Like Matter is just energy, how close does matter/energy have to be to call a perturbation in that system a quasi particle. And, if we think the the fundamental fields physically exist then are they made of anything, and if so wouldn’t they likely be made of some type of energy? Is that energy close enough to call our fundamental particles quasi particles?
