Karma and bitch are two word coming in mind.
But honestly, I have quite strong doubts the banks would be that stupid, unless they are on a punishing crusade, considering they are among those having most to lose on a brexit.
My two cents are that the UK will get the same agreements as Norway and Switzerland. Which means they will pay a bit less then before but lose the input and quite some benefits.
More on yhat here[^]

I've wondered about this for quite some time and now I stumbled upon while reading this interesting book:
Kerckhoffs’s Principle/Shannon’s Maxim
Kerckhoffs’s principle is an important concept in cryptography. Auguste Kerckhoffs’s first articulated this in the 1800s, stating that “the security of a cipher depends only on the secrecy of the key, not the secrecy of the algorithm.”
Shannon rephrased this, stating that “One ought to design systems under the assumption that the enemy will ultimately gain full familiarity with them.”3 This is referred to as Shannon’s maxim and states essentially the same thing Kerckhoffs’s principle states.
Let me attempt to restate and expound this in terms you might find more verbose, but hopefully easier to understand. Both Kerckhoffs’s principle and Shannon’s maxim state that the only thing that you must keep secret is the key. You don’t need to keep the algorithm secret. In fact, in subsequent chapters, this book will provide intimate details of most modern algorithms, and that in no way compromises their security. As long as you keep your key secret, it does not matter that I know you are using AES 256 bit, or Serpent, or Blowfish, or any other algorithm you could think of.
I would add to Kerckhoffs’s principle/Shannon’s maxim something I will humbly call Easttom’s corollary:
You should be very wary of any cryptographic algorithm that has not been published and thoroughly reviewed. Only after extensive peer review should you consider the use of any cryptographic algorithm.

Very interesting article. Hadn't seen that before.
BBC News Wrote:
The algorithm has been included in the code libraries and software of major vendors and industry bodies, including Microsoft, Cisco Systems, RSA, Juniper, RIM for Blackberry, OpenSSL, McAfee, Samsung, Symantec, and Thales, according to Nist documentation.
...
Moreover, the algorithm had been shown to be insecure in 2007 by Microsoft cryptographers Niels Ferguson and Dan Shumow, added Mr Clayton.
"Because the vulnerability was found some time ago, I'm not sure if anybody is using it," he said.

His brother Hank had some interesting books too.
All seriousness aside, this was what made PGP so good back in late 80's... If it's not open source, it's not secure.

Right PGP, it's Pretty Good...good enough.
Like, XOR encryption, probably nobody can figure that out.
Or, use ROT-13, no one can figure it out: Guvf vf haoernxnoyr nyy lbh unpxref!!!

"A team of engineers has produced a material that shrinks when it's heated."
I've done that, too.
It's called "ice". I produced it in a freezer.
No matter how good your idea is, chances are it's been done before.

And I've been using heat shrink wrap for cables for decades.
Manufacturers routinely heat shrink plastic to wrap pallets, and boxes of product as well.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Oh, that's such fun!
In my first-ever job, I sometimes had to shroud wires and then hit them with a super-duper hair dryer to heat-shrink them!

If I recall correctly, there were baking pans, made for commercial bakeries, that expanded upon cooling to make it easier to dump out the baked loaves (particularly importing in mechanized process).
They incorporated either antimony or bismuth in the baking pan alloy.

Now that is interesting, and worth looking into. Cheers!

Why is this NSFW???
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

It's Not. It says Not NSFW.

Ahh, the dreaded double negative

Dreaded? I don't think double negatives are not wonderful!
