I said exactly the same thing in 1983 at a very liberal college in a computer class, to the horror of my classmates and professor. Seriously... same kind of umm... tone, context and reveal.

I was going to ask if you were referring to the Alpha 0.1.0 project, but saw you tagged jcorgan, so answered my own question. (jmcorgan/fips). I'm curious how you see the evolution of software toolchain ecosystems outside of TCP/IP. (Rust in particular is heavily invested.) Of course, nobody would say the old stuff is going away, but if you have to bridge and build everything through legacy, I'm not seeing the advantage. (Just send those KIND-1 notes around Nostr-over-FIPS after building and maintaining gigabytes of toolchain over legacy TCP/IP? Sending JSON event objects?) I forget the article, but I was reading recently about the insane amount of corporate money going in to handle these toolchains (NPM, Rust/crates... on and on).
