I was wrong tho i polled some other canadians and apparently we largely think it means 'an idiot' but only 1 person of the dozen i asked said pedo. But everyone knew it was bad
what was the new name? PedoCon?
look i can't feel too sorry for this guy, why would you produce these things in the first place without giving SOME pushback over the name "NonceFest"
what the fuck does that even have to DO with crypto
It’s actually a real, unfortunately named thing: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptog...
Sounds like neither of the characters here had heard of the British slang term. And you love to see it
Dunno, Susan Boyle’s British record label once used the hashtag #susanalbumparty to launch her new record so us Brits are capable of rank stupidity too.
oh my god i have in fact heard of this term
i was assuming "crypto convention" meant crypto*currency,* not cryptographic *security*
(i mean...they're technically related fields, i'm aware, but one brings to mind a very different sort of people than the other)
i actually have a book called "Crypto" which is about the history of cryptographic security; it was published easily decades before i'd ever heard the word "blockchain"
fascinating read; i ought to go over it again
the phrase "THE MAGIC WORDS ARE SQUEAMISH OSSIFRAGE" is burned into my memory
i mean there's absolutely an overlap between crypto bros and the kinds of people who will snap "it's EPHEBOPHILIA, you dullard!" at you but still
i have almost a morbid curiosity as to what string of misunderstandings led to this guy deciding "nonce" was a laudatory term for a crypto bro
