@ryanc if I’m right it takes more qbits to break 4096 RSA than 256 ECC. Now all of this is theoretical as I don’t think that somone is going to use a quantum computer that may only exist in some secret classified project to attempt to reverse my keys to login to one of my boxes.

Stephen Battista (he/him) (mitresteve@infosec.exchange)'s status on Wednesday, 24-Apr-2024 00:56:32 JST Stephen Battista (he/him) @ryanc One of the things about being around a long time is saying to one's self "I know who to ask about a subject , and then learing that the person is dead". Man this is sad. He contributed so much and was so kind.

- Auto formatting. It just makes things so much more easier to read.
- Dead code detection, when accidently creating dead code, you get a warning.
- No goto. I don't know how many times in other languages I have messed that one up. I know it is a style thing and I'm starting a holy war but the extra time to work the logic in is totally worth it. (They should just rename goto as yolo, I did not want to think though the logic)
