In November 2022, I opened issue 99108 on Python’s GitHub repository, arguing that after a recent CVE in its implementation of SHA3, Python should embrace verified code for all of its hash-related infrastructure. As of last week, this issue is now closed, and every single hash and HMAC algorithm exposed by default in Python is now provided by HACL*, the verified cryptographic library. There was no loss of functionality, and the transition was entirely transparent for Python users. Python now ve

You only get one pair of ears, so it’s a good idea to look after them—and a good set of earplugs can come in handy in all kinds of situations. A proper set is a much better solution for blocking out noise during the night than a pillow over the head and is more comfortable than headphones. What you’re looking for in earplugs really depends on what you want them to do. When you’re sleeping, for example, comfort is paramount. Plus, you need an indiscriminate approach to blocking out snores, traffi

As longtime readers of this blog have probably noticed, I like to poke around in Unicode occasionally. It’s an endless system of rabbit holes to explore. This morning I was looking at the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols block. These are mostly obscure symbols, though I’m sure for each symbol that I think is obscure, there is someone out there who uses it routinely. Perpendicular The only common symbol in this block is ⟂ (U+27C2) for perpendicular. Even so, this symbol is a variation on ⊥ (
