[Noisebridge-discuss] Coursera Cryptography discussion/study session, Wednesday, 7pm

[Tony Arcieri]

Hi there,

Would definitely be down to join. I've watched most of the videos of the
class through all 6 weeks but skipped the homework. That's how I've
generally flown through life but I would love to double down on the course
and also see if I understand everything well enough to help explain it to
other people.

If you're curious, here's my brain dump of the main thing I've learned from
the course:
