But I don't think this describes intentionally encoding a different message, rather that different messages are hypothetically possible based on different keys but only one is intentional.
It might be feasible to encode different messages using different ciphers, like one in the text, another using steganography on the decrypted text. IDK. I'm not a cryptographer.
Yes, but native open-source drivers are needed for out-of-the-box support, legal compliance, and debugging missing kernel/NDIS APIs during development.
It seems that addition (for instance) was "created" long before us.
On the other hand, it seems highly unlikely that a civilization similar to ours could "invent" an essentially different kind of mathematics (or physics, etc.)
Well, I was thinking more along the lines of, say, multiplication and division - you can handle every single equation humanity has ever come up with without either of them. It might be messy and awful and annoying, but I would say in particular these operations are invented more than discovered.
So, more properly phrased, we created some operations.
