It jerked and it berked but the thing really worked!

So Fortify owned up the SHA-3 hash contestants. It's highly
embarrassing. I'm not sure why contestants were required to include a
C implementation, but in the future this should be a managed language,
like Java or C#. That would provide better results too, since people
would understand it easier and it would be optimized at a higher
level. Although, maybe anyone who submits code with bugs should just
be disqualified, because that's funnier?

Also, what's it with people using the word "breach"? Is it a way to
make it feel like a natural disaster? Maybe something unavoidable? Who
here doesn't think all the payment processors are owned and probably
always will be? Is this a bug in the whole credit processing business
model?
