> Information dissemination must be similar to fluid dynamics. It just has to be. If you include reactions, sure. But regular fluid dynamics very much leaves the substance intact. Water flows down a stream and is still water at the end.

> The main motivation is having a different password per service. So if your password is compromised in one place, you're not universally compromised. Yes, exactly. But how many logins does the average user have? Dozens at least.

Your edit conveys a strong anti pattern, at least in the sense password managers are mostly used. The entire point is to not remember passwords. Hence the name LastPass, for example (“the last password you will have to remember” aka the m

Haven't heard of it (new to iOS). Looks fine, although at home I have DNS ad blocking, and I'm not sure how the auto-clicking feature works. I wouldn't want to automatically accept all cookies; I always manually reject ever

That, and for Safari on iOS I bought Noir. Works like a charm and cannot miss it. Noir and automatic reader mode is actually a pleasant way to browse the web (although I often disable reader mode because it gobbles up images etc.).

I guess not at all. It's shadowed. But this being Python, this is a way: foo = 123 def lol(foo="bar"): print(globals()["foo"], foo) That will output "123 bar". But it's terrible!

I've worked with Unicode and ASCII conversion directly before in Python, and even then I didn't need these two. There is `str.translate` which requires ordinals aka Unicode codepoints integers, which you would use `ord(str)` for.

The main 'problem' there is the `global` keyword :^) (it's not needed for read access)

You are really onto something here. I am in plain-old mechanical engineering. As a student, for the first years, I was simply intimidated. "These papers are so hard to read!". You have to read between the lines so much, fill in so

Grading theses, this is a very common trap. Students believe they have to be creative, change it up and use a Thesaurus. Because that is in fact what everyone is taught in school! Yet, technical writing doesn't work that way. Synonyms

Putin doubling down and still losing seems like a chance. Probably naively, I believe it is a chance for encompassing reforms. For the last Soviet remnants to be flushed out. I suspect almost all Russians below say 40 years of age are just

Allowing authentication not only within the original time frame but one interval before and after is by design: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_one-time_password#S... .

Isn’t there also a blatant mistake in the content of the post? The naive approach for approximating e keeps track of two floats. No arrays. So minimal, aka negligible memory footprint. Then they introduce iterators, promoting that yielding

I am, these are in a separate directory that needs to be treated analogously. It's also pretty painless. Still, if you just want to save your ass, the DB is probably what one is after.

I regularly use Joplin and like it very much. But I guess note taking isn't for me. It's very far from having changed my life. Joplin is amazing for taking media-rich notes, combining PDFs attachments, images, bulleted lists, URLs

They probably use military-grade hashes too. So you know it is very secure indeed.

I use glossaries-extra. It allows the usual glossary stuff (acronyms), but can also be used to define symbols. All symbols then become hyperlinks, linking to the nomenclature at the beginning or end of the document. And in that nomenclature

I learned about metaclasses in "Fluent Python". An excellent book, but it predates typing, so that's not covered. Then again, I believe a second edition is on its way.

What classes are to instances, metaclasses are to classes. This is from someone who has only ever read about, never used metaclasses, because they are widely regarded similar to git submodules. If you cannot really assert that you need them

The parent commenter possibly meant: with an incoming request, sending a password in clear-text, how do you cache it? You hash it, then store the fact that authentication was valid with some expiry. Once the next request, again with clear-t

Embracing security through obscurity like that is also how I decided to help protect my password manager, Vaultwarden. It's open to the internet on 80/443, but its URL is `subdomain.domain.tld/some-secret-path/`. It&#x27
