@bascule@Dymaxion@justintroutman cryptographers can learn UX, and vice versa. "Unicorns" only in seeing value there + prioritizing for it. -
@hypatiadotca@bascule@Dymaxion While we should both learn and complement each other's respective crafts -- we need each other. -
@justintroutman@bascule@Dymaxion crypto has a few decades worth of sneering wannabe-mathematician bad attitude to make up for, sadly -
@hypatiadotca@bascule@Dymaxion That's the part we can, should, and will, fix. -
@justintroutman@hypatiadotca@Dymaxion usable cryptography ahould be like air... you shouldn't notice it until something goes wrong -
@bascule@hypatiadotca@justintroutman Doesn't work. Users must understand invariants they can rely on & what failure looks like to plan. -
@Dymaxion@bascule@hypatiadotca IMO, the way we talk about security -- crypto, especially -- isn't aligned with users' actual goals. -
@justintroutman@bascule@hypatiadotca In most cases, we refuse to learn or even acknowledge that users ∗have∗ goals, so yes. - 4 more replies
