This isn’t blacklisting. A blacklist implies that you only add to it once. Your solution needs to be added on every query.

The argument to me reads as "if the security isn't perfect, it means they are not even trying, which makes it obvious that security is not the goal." but the not-perfect->not-trying jump doesn't seem to be fair.

I share the habits (melatonin, caffeine and exercise) and eventual strategies (coffee withdrawal from time to time). Would you care to elaborate on your methods? (What time do you take melatonin, how much and at what time do you take coffee

I don't like the kerning on San Francisco. It's too common to have wider than normal spaces between characters to the point of being distracting. Maybe that's good to read randomly generated strings of text, but on actual wor

I haven't read all his work, but I guess Shakespeare didn't use "hangn" and "hangin" as an alternative to "hanging". The author could validate the words against a dictionary, but it would still be fla
