“When reached by The Times, one American whose biometric scan was found on the device confirmed that the data was likely his. He previously served as a Marine intelligence specialist and said his data, and that of any other American found on these devices, was most likely collected during a military training course. The man, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he still works in the intelligence field and was not authorized to speak publicly, asked that his biometric file be deleted.”

“Metadata on the device, called a Secure Electronic Enrollment Kit, or SEEK II, revealed that it had last been used in the summer of 2012 near Kandahar, Afghanistan.”

The label "Scientist" was coined because they needed a term for a **woman** who was doing science.

• A BBC report on the winter storm in the USA. The report is quite long and talks about what has been experienced where. Buried in the article is a paragraph: 'Temperatures in Elk Park, in the US state of Montana, speed dropped to minus 50F, while the town of Hell, Michigam, froze over...' (remote)

I am at #HiP22 (@HIP22) this week!

I’m giving a workshop on Wednesday about programming video games for Nintendo Switch and other platforms using the Go programming language.

Otherwise, I’m around and happy to discuss applied cryptography, cryptographic protocols, protocol verification and other related topics! As well as indie puzzle games, of course.

Say hi!

WOW: I had clocked that Benoit Blanc has a few crossword puzzles strewn about when we first re-meet him in Glass Onion. But @bgzimmer has brought to my attention that the one on the bottom right is actually the 6/16/22 NYT puzzle by me and @rosstrudeau!
