This has very limited benefit for weak passcodes, like PINs.

We’re in this category. We could’ve purchased a home a while ago, but we chose to rent and save money instead. We didn’t want to raise kids in Seattle, so buying an overpriced home there made little sense. Now that we’re both working remote

Well, it's not just individuals with their savings. It's businesses, too.

I don't disagree, but fwiw it's only about one month's payroll for 25 people if each employee makes around $200k per year.

Canada tried this like 20 something years ago. It, uh, didn’t work.

I’m sure the US military is smart enough to put their toys away before the balloon they’ve been watching for a week floats overhead.

Ha, thanks! I’m planning on adding fixed point decimals soon. That’s actually why I made the package in the first place.

The maphash package from the blog post provides routines that call into Go's runtime to hash arbitrary types. The maphash package in the standard library (hash/maphash) provides routines that hash string and []byte. The builtin ma

Given that modifying just a single bit in an image results in a wildly different hash digest, I think the risk is a little overblown. There are probably easier ways for authoritarian governments to figure out who's sending illegal cont

Yeah, there is an easement for the trail.

This already happens with public utilities and whatnot. I own a number of acres with a public walking trail through part of it. I don’t particularly like having random people being able to walk though my property, but honestly it’s such a m

I think manual three-way comparisons are very clear. But so is strings.Compare. For better or worse, copying code is a pretty normal thing to do in Go. See "A little copying is better than a little dependency." [0] [0]: https:&#x

Go doesn't have many features of other languages. There are several competing goals, including keeping the language small, not hiding complexity, etc. Manually writing the three-way comparison fits in with these goals. If slices were c

Or, you could use cryptography.

That would only work if the original was uploaded to GitHub before the copies. Like, somebody could copy from GitLab or BitBucket. And git histories don’t always help if they’re not copied over.

ZK proofs let you (the prover) prove a fact to somebody else (the verifier).

FWIW the linked paper on nuclear warheads is fairly accessible. You don’t need to understand nuclear physics to grok the algorithm. ZK proofs only demonstrate knowledge of some fact. So, you could prove that you know the way through the maz

Ehhhh, I’ve been writing Go for ~10 years and I’ve never had this make it into prod. Many times in local development and testing, though.

I’m not sure what to make of your reply. You don’t offer any evidence that it’s not subjective. And I don’t even know what you mean by > Case closed, apologist anecdata will not be considered. Not sure this is your call to make?
