Not Even Pretending


Yesterday, I had a conversation with a colleague that I found amusing and instructive:

He kicks off, “We’ve got a delay with delivery”.

“Yeah, how come?”

“We’ve got to change some of the coding for the Chinese.”

“I don’t understand.”

“The Chinese Government has told us that we’re not allowed to use 128 bit encryption, they find it too hard to crack. We’ve gotta drop the Chinese version of the software to 64 bit.”
