“Please do not make it public” (Tencent’s Sogou Input Method)
> I wonder what people say when they find a bug despite you using standard crypto?
Not using TLS doesn't automatically mean you need to "roll your own crypto". They could have used a well documentend library such as Google Tink[1] instead of doing their own crypto.

What are you rewriting in rust?
I sort of rewrote google's tink project in rust. There is already a rust version by project oak but it didn't exactly jive.

PassManager
PassManager uses the Tink library for encryption, which provides state-of-the-art** security for your passwords. Tink uses industry-standard encryption algorithms like AES to ensure that your passwords are kept safe from prying eyes.

Note that in the example jwt refers to the Tink jwt package.

What's new in Jetpack Security Crypto Version 1.1.0-alpha04
What I can't tell is if the new version had any fixes related to the bug being discussed here
-
How do you handle encryption?
Even the slightest hiccup could leave me vulnerable. I don't want to roll my own encryption. I want to use something like tink (a secure crypto library by Google) but unfortunately they don't support node or Javascript (there's a library that was published 2 years ago).

Some help with cryptography?
I dont have an answer for you, but 2 resources that are worth checking out: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/cryptography and https://developers.google.com/tink

Ask HN: Is there a portable encryption file format?
> Do C (or something where the mapping to C is known), and lots of languages have FFI libs where wrapping that is fairly trivial
That is an interesting idea, yet still a lot of work, sadly. I was hoping somebody had done the legwork already. I looked at Tink [1] and age [2] based on my co-worker's recommendation, but they all seem to have limited implementations in other languages.

Wax compiler – a tiny language designed to transpile to other languages
This remineds me of Haxe[1]. I like Wax better because of the Common-Lisp-like syntax.

Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball
I thought this was a three.js demo but it's actually built with a language called haxe [1]. I've never heard of this language before and looks really cool. Makes me want to play with it!

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
The Haxe programming language (https://haxe.org/). It's insane how unpopular this is compared to its value.
"Haxe can build cross-platform applications targeting JavaScript, C++, C#, Java, JVM, Python, Lua, PHP, Flash, and allows access to each platform's native capabilities. Haxe has its own VMs (HashLink and NekoVM) but can also run in interpreted mode."
It's mostly popular in game dev circles, and is used by: Nortgard, Dead Cells, Papers Please, ... .

TIL: "private_constant"
Been tinkering in the Haxe programming language recently. I definitely suggest checking it out, but one thing I liked was private constants. I know other languages have this, but its where I've encountered it most recently.
What are some alternatives?
