@stephtara yes. Largely not great ones, in my case, but that’s also influenced by Jack Dorsey and the politics of that protocol.

@tommorris oh, my fun days working on business integration challenges as an IT consultant back in the day. There was a particularly fun retail system that involved squirting XML directly into a TCP socket (with no confirmation, and it could terminate the connection when it felt like it). Sorry, I know your rant is SAP specific! But yes, many such annoying things out there in the wild. This is where software businesses build services businesses (see also: Salesforce IBM Oracle et al)

Larry Ellison predicts rise of the modern surveillance state where ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’ | Fortune
September 17, 2024
George Orwell’s 1984 warned of a future where Big Brother watches every move. Today, modern technology is making that vision a reality, and Oracle founder Larry Ellison—the world’s second-richest person—sees a growing opportunity for his company to help authorities analyze real-time data from millions of surveillance cameras.
“Citizens will be on their best behavior, because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on,” Ellison said in an hour-long Q&A during Oracle’s Financial Analyst Meeting last week.

The first cursed thing I learned about the SAP system I had to integrate was that to submit data, I had to send non-standards compliant SOAP messages. Literally construct an XML document in a DOM, then run various regexes over it in order to break it in ways that worked with their shitty XML parser.
It didn’t have transactions. You sent in data, one row would fail, but all the others would get inserted.
Every day, more annoying shitty errors that required emailing arsehole consultants.

@seecurity @Fr333k You’re right that nothing in email crypto is ever “simple” — WKD doesn’t change the complexity of OpenPGP itself. However, it does solve a particular problem that has long blocked adoption: key discovery.
That doesn’t contradict the analogy with HTTPS — it’s about lowering friction, not erasing complexity.
And yes, S/MIME can be smoother in some contexts, but WKD gives domains a way to make OpenPGP more usable in practice.

@david_chisnall simply put; hire more of us and we will hire more of us, changing the culture in the process.
