“Humans are incapable of securely storing high-quality cryptographic keys, and they have unacceptable speed and accuracy when performing cryptographic operations. (They are also large, expensive to maintain, difficult to manage, and they pollute the environment. It is astonishing that these devices continue to be manufactured and deployed. But they are sufficiently pervasive that we must design our protocols around their limitations.)” HumansDifficultQualityEnvironmentDesignKeysInternetSpeedManageLimitationOperationsPerformingExpensiveDevicesFree SpeechIncapableAstonishingAccuracyHigh QualityProtocol Author:Charlie Kaufman

“There really is only one ending to any story. Human life ends in death. Until then, it keeps going and gets complicated and there's loss.
