"class traitor technologies" is a useful concept to install into your worldview: anything that invites you to think of yourself as a little dauphin, a temporary aristocrat reclining on a chaise of screaming human bones, languorous finger directing some new marvel of labor, anything that discourages you from thinking of that labor as the product of other humans' hands and minds, product of a real place with soil and air and human community. technology to invisibilize & obliterate all that.

@soatok This is awesome. Even AGE itself does post-quantum now, which is kinda awesome, and it's blazing fast compared to PGP. I did some benchmarking out of curiosity and even with compression turned off, AGE is 2-3x faster at encrypting files than GPG.

"#Mythos discovers 27-year-old bug" is intentionally conflating length of existence of a bug with difficulty of finding it. There is no such correlation.

If software projects and companies performed regular, ongoing, in-depth code audits over and over and missed it, sure, then age would be meaningful, but that is simply not what organizations do.

But sure, it makes for great headlines.

Every time someone sends me an annoying, unsolicited notification on Fedi about products that use OpenPGP, my contempt for PGP and its supporters grows exponentially.

So let's make PGP obsolete by replacing it with better cryptographic tools.

This age port supports mlkem768x25519 identity keys, so you can get post-quantum security today.

I've implemented age in PHP.

Yes, with post-quantum cryptography support.

okay so i started thinking about big pext and it's a little tricky.

so let's define the problem. if you have hardware pext support, you will get 64 and 32 bit versions. which are great if those are what you want and a bit shift if you want an arbitrary size. so we want pext for arbitrary size buffers, or big pext.

say we have an array of 64 bit integers, we can do most of the work with 64 bit pexts. this will select all of the relevant bits, but it will organise them all in their original 64 bit chunks. intuitively with some shifting about, we can fix this, but that shifting about is pretty annoying.

but it can get more annoying! i have already got high throughput versions of array pext. i would of course want it to keep up with that so it's really only slightly slower for the same amount of data.

i think it's doable, but it's not immediately obvious how to do all the shifting about without knackering everything.

If you like your books DRM-free, you can also check out the Narratess Itch.io bundles. I am in a couple of these, one for scifi books and one for books between 300 and 499 pages in length. This is a great way to get a whole bunch of books for a good value!
