This week on I had a chat with Paul Kehrer and Alex Gaynor about the statement they published discussing the challenges posed by modern OpenSSL for the python cryptography module

It was a super fun discussion, I learned a ton, and it highlights the open source question about what happens when one of your dependencies isn't a great fit anymore
