marchmeena29 / Getty Images When I was a kid, my home lab consisted of test tubes and beakers, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), acetic acid (vinegar), and the occasional boom, followed closely by the sound of my mom in the distance yelling, "David Allen Gewirtz, you stop that right now." When the scold transitioned from "David Gewirtz" to "David Allen Gewirtz," I knew I was in trouble. To be fair, nothing prepared my nontechnical mom and dad to raise a future engineer.

Printegrated Circuits: Merging 3D Printing and Electronics

Just as the laser printer delivered the benefits of a printing press to personal computer users more than 40 years ago, 3D printers have made it possible for individuals to turn digital designs into physical objects. Some printers cost less than US $1,000, and they can be used to create one-off objects or low-volume production of items. 3D printed objects have one major limitation; it’s not easy to make them “smart.” Adding digital processors and other components remains a challenge, as does ad

So you want to serialize some DER? (Editor’s Note: My day job is at Anthropic.) This story starts where all good stories start, with ASN.1.
