Bruce Schneier Facts

Posted on August 16, 2006 at 15:24

Everybody loves Eric Raymond is a pretty weird web comic to start with, combining as it often does obscure open-source in-jokes with the premise that Richard Stallman, Eric Raymond and Linus Torvalds all live together in a flat somewhere.

Today’s episode jumps over into the even more obscure realm of crypto in-jokes, with the even weirder premise that Bruce Schneier is actually a cryptographic Chuck Norris.

Clicking through to the interactive Bruce Schneier Facts Database is well worth while. My favourite random fact so far is:

Bruce Schneier doesn’t even trust Trent. Trent has to trust Bruce Schneier.

Obscure enough for you?

He’s the cryptographic Bruce Lee. If you like those, there’s more bruce facts here-
