Why 256 bit keys are large enough
I wish I knew more about encryption. Unfortunately it isn't a very accessible area, even if you have a degree in CS you aren't really qualified to even touch the stuff, you need a maths degree at the very least.<p>Plus every time anyone brings up the subject the answer is always the same: "If you roll your own crypto you're an idiot." Which is not very encouraging. Likely why crypto' libraries are so antiquated and terrible.
