  1. CW: programming, ietf rfc-3987

    A somewhat funny quote from IETF RFC-3987:

    “RFCs and Internet Drafts currently do not allow any characters outside the US-ASCII repertoire.”

    It is funny because IETF RFC-3987 is about using characters outside the US-ASCII repertoire (within links).

  2. RFC 9535 - JSONPath: Query Expressions for JSON

  3. The #IEFT were warning of this in the 90s:

    "Export controls and usage controls [on cryptographic software] are slowing the deployment of security at the same time as the Internet is exponentially increasing in size and attackers are increasing in sophistication. This puts users in a dangerous position as they are forced to rely on insecure electronic communication."
