A naïve hash of the data you’re encrypting stuffed into the nonce leaks whether two plaintexts are the same (or…collided). A hash of the key and plaintext leaks whether the two plaintexts are the same under the same key. Using a proper keye

There’re also SIV constructions if you’re the more cautious type, which isn’t a bad type to be in cryptography.

A lot of these look like children. Nowhere in the article is it mentioned that a lot of these look like children. No one in the comments has brought up that a lot of these look like children. A lot of these look like children.

Because `const` is a js level keyword that has different semantics: it applies only to the reference binding being immutable, not the value as being so. `const a = "hello"` does have the shape `"hello"` as you’d expect

`as const` is useful there as well, as TypeScript’s type inference only narrows as far as the type and not the literal value. `let z = {text: "hello"}` has the shape `{text: string}`, with `as const` it has the shape `{text: &quot

I'm not arguing that one should write things from scratch. I think I may have poorly articulated my position, but that you and I actually share the same opinion here. I don't think you should reinvent the wheel unless for some rea

There's absolutely nothing wrong with using black boxes, and I'm not arguing that it should be totally avoided. I'm arguing that a lack of understanding of how to solve your problem leads to only gluing black boxes together

You can hack that in with a decorator if you’d like, at some cost to performance.

Not everyone speaks English as a first language and “payed” is a completely reasonable assumption given how a bulk of words are conjugated.

You’re going to want to look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kneser–Ney_smoothing for further improvements on an ngram based approach.

Yes, and it is...not great. It's generally fine as far as the language goes (considering it's a retrofit), but the builtin asyncio library is not the way to go in my opinion. trio is far better for just aping a lot of the Erlang

Can you network multiple boards together to drive larger LED arrays in sync?

My tests do not show this, but show that putting the CPU under load alone is enough to get rather disheartening results: https://imgur.com/a/ehtleu4

Yeah, I dunno why it never took off, though Meyer was one of the few to star the repo, so I thought that was nice. I was never able to get much traction on my extension either, though some people did port it to every browser, which was also

You might want to take a look at https://github.com/karanlyons/pinpoint to see if there's anything there you want to grab, especially around the selector creation: https://github.com/karanlyons&#x2

Don’t worry, it’s safe: I didn’t put the actual solver, just proof that I solved it. Wouldn’t want to spoil the fun for anyone else :)

I wouldn’t say this work is novel in the general case of “PRNGs are not CSPRNGs”. You can throw a constraint solver at most any PRNG and given sufficient output determine the state fairly easily. As a datapoint, doing this for xoroshiro too

The answer is maybe. You need to reduce that text to a set of features that you can pipe into a clustering algorithm, and what’ll really make or break your approach is how you convert the text. There are two types of features and related cl

It's sort of like `pip install -r` in Python. I used to do `cat brew_requirements.txt | xargs -L1 brew install`, but Brewfiles mean that that sort of thing is now standardized, and also gives support for things like tapping, linking, e

You could swap your PATH back to the OS's python, or compile python yourself. Homebrew is great for the latter, and much more.

Your homeowner's/renter's insurance should cover items stolen from your person outside of the home (I'm not clear on the legal wording, but my insurance covered a stolen iPhone.). Moreover, anything can be stolen from yo

That's a fascinating pricing model. It makes a great deal of sense, too, since presumably there's work to be done keeping all that data fresh and up to date. But I wonder how many other transit apps we're going to see with a subscription mo

That's a little bit of a shame. I'm not close enough to make it to the meetup, but I and others would love some way to take part and chat with everyone.

I wouldn't pay for it either, since I only have to maintain contact with a manageable number of people. But were I the head of a large company, or in any position wherein I was keeping track with an un manageable number of people, I'd defi
