    Worth noting that there is such thing as color deficiency where specific colors appear more dull than they would for others. It isn’t technically colorblindness but could still make it harder to read these tests.

    One of my friends has this with red colors but could see everything else normally, and he described it as red looking way more desaturated than other colors (almost like a brown/gray?).








  • That’s true but in practice it wouldn’t take 60^11 tries to break the password. Troubador is not a random string and all of the substitutions are common ( o -> 0, a ->4, etc. ). You could crack this password a lot easier with a basic dictionary + substitution brute force method.

    I’m saying this because I had an assignment that showed this in an college cybersecurity class. Part of our lesson on password strength was doing a brute force attack on passwords like the one in the top of the xkcd meme to prove they aren’t secure. Any modern laptop with an i5 or higher can probably brute force this password using something like hashcat if you left it on overnight.

    Granted, I probably wouldn’t use the xkcd one either. I’d either want another word or two or maybe a number/symbol in between each word with alternating caps or something like that. Either way it wouldn’t be much harder to remember.


  • At least in my school the internal/external threat drills were normalized enough that they weren’t really traumatic. They were basically treated the same as fire drills. Looking back on it that fact is kind of messed up by itself.

    I could actually see that being a good argument for why they shouldn’t happen though since it might make people take the real thing less seriously if it ever happened.


  • I went to a high school on the larger side and one time some people 2 grades below me got into a fight. The next day one of them brought a gun to school. The security guards ended up catching him before anything happened but there was a solid hour where no one knew what the hell was going on and everyone was in full lockdown. The unfortunate reality is that those drills definitely save lives, even in a state with some of the strictest gun laws in the US (which I guess is a pretty low bar).

    Github contribution graphs (basically how much code you committed over time)

    *Unfortunately this graph is from Google images, not my account :(

    Edit: maybe I should have included a screenshot of light mode because it looks closer to the shower panels, oh well
