correct way to use the collab feature on youtube

Honey, I invested $100 billion in AI, and all I got was 1 + 2 + 3 = 15

I'm crying. reference implementation of yescrypt (the default password hashing function in many distributions including nixos) is using an evil version of base64, which processes least significant bits first, instead of the most significant ones.

This means that you can't easily go from the linux password string ($y$j9T$OpXCuom4o6Kx1vE2MYU8R1$/qMlxCU5VmbMyWmpbvhwvL59Tcv7/Zxyjw5jQihHIZ6) to the salt (to, for example, test your own impl or check the password), because no libraries implement this evil base64.

(unless I'm missing something I guess?)

Here, I fixed that Mastodon meme. That's most of my bookmarks...

Growing up, the main bus in my town was every 10 minutes and always packed. I didn't worry about timetables I just left the house and knew it would be there. Now it's every half hour and completely deserted. This is no coincidence. Fund buses properly and people will use them.

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again.
If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive.

I wrote some code to generate a random name out of some of the wordchunks I had edited already and it resulted in this

Example of bad c++ things I've seen recently:

  • initializing a database connection in a constructor
  • starting thread in constructor before object fully constructed
  • throwing runtime error if constexpr compile time check fails
  • just classes and OOP™ in general
