 Very much so it's great to be here. It's great to be here with so many many other cryptographers I feel do very much at home It makes a lot easier when people ask what I do to actually explain what I do because you know people here know what Cryptology is and what cryptography is and I mean that actually is not always the case in the real world I've often had the issue where someone asked what I do I say well, I do research in In cryptography and they say oh wow, that's so interesting I didn't realize there was a research field in photography. So is that like related to lights or how does that work? So so anyway after a while I decided okay, maybe maybe maybe maybe I should try to find a synonym and say instead of in cryptology Cryptography say I say cryptology So I tried that instead and usually it works a lot like if people know what it is It's fine and otherwise I can explain it, but every once in a while I get someone that says oh How do you actually study imaginary animals because apparently cryptology? It sounds a lot like cryptology Which is apparently the study of imaginary animals? So anyway from from now on I'm gonna I'm gonna commit to a simply saying Cryptography because I mean I like photography and so I'd rather be be associated With that than the study of imaginary animals so in a way Speaking of commitments So yeah, my ex that I had had commitment issues and I didn't really understand why Because I mean I usually do work in maliciously secure Computation so it means I always commit to to both input and randomness and transcripts and and everything that's basically Basically going on so it took me a while to actually Realize what the problem was the problem is that I always do homomorphic commitments so this basically means that you know, I would commit to some things say moving in together and Then have another commitment to a date which was apparently a bit too far in the future And then when you actually open them both combined it turns into something not so desirable So anyway, I'm done with homomorphic commitment Commitments, it's that that's a done thing now. I'm gonna learn my lesson from that So so now I've started just to to work with a purely extractable commitments but but basically that's I still do you know maliciously secure things and So so that often involves Needing to do some sort of zero knowledge on top of that So let's see how that works because what could possibly go wrong with with commitments and and Relationship and someone having zero knowledge of what's actually going on and what you're doing So yeah
