Don't know who Grumpy Old Scribe is, but he seems to have fixated on a closed system . . . to which I mean he wrote a story for himself . . . which feeds his (her?) own version of the complaint needing a remedy. Along, alas, with some logic that, well, isn't logical.*
On the other hand - much of it is a nice writing style - so you post wasn't wasted.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yes, but "quantum bullshit". It's both 'bull' and '$h1t' at the same time.

Multiple CAs have misissued over 1.2 million TLS certs with weak 63-bit serial numbers, instead of the standard of 64 bits. 63 bits ought to be enough for everyone

That's a bit too much to believe...

Except even using 64-bits, half the certificates would have zero for the top bit. So how do you tell the difference between a random number without the top bit set and a random number with the top bit forced to 0?
|
|
|
|
|
Easy! Use the bottom bit as a boolean flag to indicate which condition it is!
|
|
|
|
|
...and don't forget another bit for parity - so we're down to 61 bits already?

They need these on the ducts and enclosures for heating/cooling system in my daughter's apartment.

According to new research from data protection specialist Veritas Technologies, employees are losing two hours a day searching for data, and data management challenges are costing businesses as much as $2 million a year. Have you checked the SharePoint? How about Slack? And your Inbox?

I guess if you consider pointless youtube videos, and reading facebook friend posts "data". I buy that.

I was thinking something along the same kind of lines, today.
I'm back at a major petrochemical company (that shell remain nameless) for a quickie contract, and the new coffee machines that they've acquired (globally, because that's how they do things) take forever and a day!
If they got machines that took ten seconds less to spew out brown mud, it would quite literally save them millions.
I'll have to include a clause in my next contract with them that puts me in charge of coffee-machine purchasing, and gives me a percentage of the savings, as commission.
