The Challenge
-------------
Given the following riddle, write a regular expression describing all possible answers,
assuming you never make a move which simply undoes the last one you made.

The Riddle
----------
You are on your way somewhere, taking with you your cabbage, goat, and wolf, as always.
You come upon a river and are compelled to cross it, but you can only carry one of the
three companions at a time. None of them can swim because this isn't THAT kind of riddle.

Dual EC, The Saga Continues: BUT MAYBE I’M BIASED

Bla bla bla this is my personal opinion bla bla bla.

Patents. Can’t live with violating them, can’t live without violating them. The entire concept of patented cryptography is a bit beyond what I have the energy to deal with right now. Whatever. We’re going in.

It didn’t click with me yesterday, reading the crypto news, that I had already quoted one Dan Brown with whom we are now concerned. No, not the one who wrote the novels. One of the other ones. I cited him in my timeline of trying to reconstruct where and when exactly Dual EC DRBG went so wrong. Specifically, the paper has a casual mention (bottom of page 7) that the proof of security relies on initialization value Q being random, because if it is not random, an adversary in-the-know can recover the prestates and everything’s downhill from there. Therefore – and I quote – it is generally preferable for Q to be c
