Mahdi Ahmadi, the founder of Azad, a six-person team that hosts debates in Tehran and publishes them on YouTube, pitched Mr. Carlson on the idea, he said, and then connected him with the president’s team.

Did you know that you can use #PyTest 's plugin manager instance to check whether a particular plugin was loaded? You might have known that.

So if a plugin was autoloaded, it's its entry point name. If it was loaded via `-p` or `PYTEST_PLUGINS`, it's whatever the argument was (i.e. entry point name in the first case, object reference in the second one). And if it was loaded via an explicit call to plugin loader, then it was whatever you passed to the plugin loader.

Re-reading #RFC 8995, I find that I missed that the BRSKI architecture does support nonceless vouchers, at least in situations where you know precisely (by serial number) what you bought.
If I've ever pitched BRSKI based IoT and left you with a bad taste of "why do I have to run the device once in a connected situation": I'm sorry, I undersold it, it is even cooler than I made i…
