whit diffie is coming to give a talk should i ask him to sign my pgp key
he did it!
i've bragged to a dozen people about it lol
@fkfd This is as niche as it is hilarious.
I scanned it. laminated it. gonna hang this up on my wall
@fkfd Smart of him to add that preamble to his autograph.
@EvilKiru yeah if he hadn't done that I'd 100% walk into the bank and try to withdraw all the cash from diffie's account and when the clerk sighs and explains to me that's not how banking works I'll just pull up my slides and lecture them all the way up from the concept of prime numbers
@fkfd My thought was that he's prepared for the eventuality that someone might try to slip him a blank check to sign and he's trained himself to always add that preamble, "just in case".
