BLAKE3 is written in Rust wile BLAKE2s is written in C. That is probably a lot easier to push through.

It also seems to be almost as fast according to the BLAKE3 specs PDF (page 11).

Giantrobot was going for a They Might Be Giants song reference

TMBG was a cover; It was The Four Lads originally I believe

I picked up on that reference too. I was about to type it up when I saw your comment. I think it went over a lot of heads.

Well, the singers might be giants after all.

BLAKE3 has a C implementation including many SIMD implementations. The C implementation only lacks multi-threading which BLAKE2 does not have.

It's BLAKE2, though BLAKE3 was hopeful,

but it just BLAKE2, BLAKE3 got a nope

SHA1's a long time gone, that crypto's a slowpoke

Why did BLAKE3 and SHA1 get the works?

That's nobody's business, even Turks!

claps :D

Don't. Think. Posts. Below. Got. Joke.
