perhaps jayofdoom meant LibreSSL.

and yes, OpenSSL is a bit of a code quality difference than the OpenBSD norm.



Yall don't be too nice to them. The code quality is shit. My favorite quip of all came from Ted Unagnst noticing they did endian-checks in one code that ran very often during use of protocol. He said something along the lines that they hadn't applied any sense to (important issue) but they had you covered if your CPU's endianness changed in mid-operation. No words. :)


I meant my comment in the same spirit as a Southerner means "Bless your heart".

I do believe Ted Unagnt's comment is included in the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnBbhXBDmwU LibrSSL first 30 days along with quite a lot of other oddities.


Alright lol. I lost the video but it was definitely a LibreSSL presentation at a conference. Thanks for the link in case it has it.
