@soatok@furry.engineer to be fair this happens more than it should, OpenSSL for example ships default fallback code which will do most of their crypto without any constant time instructions... this is a particularly big issue on RISC-V chips, see the below github issue.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: OpenSSL does this due to hardware limitations, not because they feel like doing it, unlike matrix devs ;)

@aral@mastodon.ar.al this is why it rubs me the wrong way when people ignore my technical advice

am I basically nobody? yes
am I still offering sound and important advice that experts should listen to? also yes

often when I'm ignored for long enough people begin realizing that despite my lack of status I know what the hell I'm saying still lol

@aral@mastodon.ar.al of course, I just genuinely appreciate the project, it's rare to find cool people who build cool tech that helps with world like this :blobowo:

this is VERY cool tech, shoutout to @aral@mastodon.ar.al for keeping the web (or should I say 'small web') alive with projects like Kitten, a simple and straightforward framework that gets out of your way and lets you build powerful impressive things for each other and the world

@aral@mastodon.ar.al @jdormansteele2@mastodon.social At the risk of being dragged into a political argument for a passing comment, I do have to point out that perhaps the several other nations with the ability to use nukes, but the restraint to choose not to, are perhaps going to be fine... Besides I was mostly commenting on the idea that the USA alone ended up defeating nazi germany, historically that's not really the case, although they helped they weren't the cause of the loss (talk to your local history buff about why)

@aral@mastodon.ar.al @jdormansteele2@mastodon.social I'm sure the rest of the entire planet and human race will figure it out, this reeks of US exceptionalism lol
