Song sample
gollark: To what?
gollark: But even though they could probably share some code and stuff, they're separate, hard to find, randomly scattered across the internet, and don't integrate well.
gollark: CC has lots of crypto libraries for various primitives: SHA256, "Ring LWE" for some reason, elliptic curve cryptography, SHA1, AES, ChaCha20.
gollark: Oh, the `/` operator thing was completely intended as an ugly hack, it was kind of a parody of Alex's Hell Superset.
gollark: Another idea I had was a general-purpose crypto library with sane defaults.
