I've been reading a lot about cryptography lately. Anyone else find ciphers interesting?
Comments:
it's like secret codes and stuff. hacking stuff.

that's cool but base64 is kinda basic tbh.. u gotta try real stuff if u wanna be l33t.

what's base64?

just a way to encode text so it looks like gibberish. it's not real encryption.

whoa ok mr hacker. who even uses that anymore it's 2014 lol. let me try to crack it tho if u ever post the message.

it is p. easy to crack if u have the key anyway.

yeah it's more for fun than actual security.

i watched a documentary about the enigma machine once. that stuff is fascinating.

enigma is old school. modern encryption uses math. prime numbers and stuff.

yeah RSA is practically unbreakable right now unless quantum computers become a thing.

what's a quantum computer?

google is your friend justin.

lol.

what's cryptography exactly?
