Go, Rust, Linux, cryptography and UK privacy law. One properly researched article a day.

Page 4 of 4. Working notes from a software engineer who spends the day in Go, Rust and Linux and the evening reading legislation. Each post takes one specific question and answers it properly: why a worker pool deadlocks, what fsync really promises, how to enrol a TPM into LUKS without locking yourself out, what a technical capability notice can actually compel. Step-by-step how-tos sit alongside the deep dives, everything is checked against source code or primary legislation, and nothing is padded to hit a word count.
