In class someone said Diffie-Hellman is a PKC algorithm (or it belongs to PKC). But I don't get why?

@Joey crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/6307/…

@SEJPM Questions are either on topic or not, why should the votes matter?

@otus Thank you very much! :)

@otus Indeed. @SEJPM Actually, I don’t mind seeing some incoming migration of highly-upvoted questions (preferable with accepted – and correct – answers) because it might attract some new users. Besides that, it helps balancing that small imperium of 969 completely unanswered questions we’re currently thugging along.

@e-sushi Hooo maybe it is time for me to get my Excavator / Necrologist / Archeologist tag. =D

If I can answer some of them of course... :/

@Biv I tried this a few times, but getting the silver badges is hard

@otus @e-sushi my "issues" were caused by the official migration guidelines

"Don't migrate for the sake of migration. We only migrate questions because they are off-topic on the original site. It is perfectly possible for a question to be on-topic on multiple sites, but that is not a reason to migrate it elsewhere. As a general rule, if someone asks a question here, and it's on-topic here, it should stay here."

"Avoid migrating answered questions. The point of migration is to send the question to a place where it is on-topic and can get answered. If the OP already has an answer, then we've already defeated the purpose of migration and the destination site won't have anything to do with the question. Avoid migrating these questions unless they are of extremely good quality and risk deletion on their current site."

@Biv don't forget Explainer / Refiner / Illuminator

@SEJPM Not sure… maybe your “all those highly upvoted questions” simply overlaps that “unless they are of extremely good quality and risk deletion on their current site.” For what it’s worth, we’ve been throwing ample Qs (sometimes also with initial answers) at their site too if that seemed more fitting or things were simply too “security” to be on-topic at our place. Our sites are pretty closely related, so – as far as I can look back – they do the same when their Qs are bit too “crypto”.

I wish I could, but I can’t wrap up their potential motivation for migrating each individual question. In case of doubt, we can always drop a gentle question at the Security.SE chat to ask them why question X or Y was migrated to us. Yet, personally, I haven’t had any reason to do so up until now. (Maybe I just got lucky and one of the other mods once did have to ask them. If you happen to stumble upon mikeazo or codesinchaos, you could ask them.)

@e-sushi you want to ask something serious in the DMZ? You've clearly never been there :P

@SEJPM It gets better after 03:00 UTC on Sunday nights… when the crazies run the asylum. Add a bit of L33T speak and don’t forget to salt your posts, and communication suddenly starts working. ;)
