Steven Levy is a journalist and Editor at Large for Wired.
I knew crypto was important and followed it closely in the 90s, leading to this book in 2001. As with Hackers, I'm delighted that the subject matter has gone mainstream. (Though in both cases, the titles have taken on altered meaning.)
I write to learn and tend to be overly optimistic. Currently learning to code with my 5 year old and cooking food for my fam.
@0xJala Haha I hear you. Get on audible of the Steven Levy book called Crypto. It’s old, story like format.
