- koliber 4y ago... or refactor the code using an automated thesaurus and a bit of AI in a way to generate a particular hash. - Hey Bob, why did you rename the 'pick_person' function to 'choose_desirable_candidate'? - git made me do it
- hoosieree 4y agoI was going to solve some business problems today but instead there became an urgent need to GPU accelerate the task of making my commit hash appear to have the rich semantics of "a number that goes up". Hm, I bet this old FPGA could be repurposed to add a 2x speedup...
- whoooooo123 4y agoOnly works if your commit message is written in hexadecimal characters
- oneeyedpigeon 4y agoI don't understand — the example in the article adds the string "magic: MTQIpN2AmwQA" to the commit message. The final hash is hexadecimal, but what you feed into it isn't.
- Biganon 4y ago"it" (in "it matches the hash") = "the next sequential number", not "the commit message", afaict. Not very clear, I agree.
