Re:So you want to roll your own crypto? on Sunday August 30, 2020 @01:37AM (#24321597)
In case anyone wants to create a similar reminder for a specific image, a while ago I created a small utility that does just that: https://github.com/mhe/visualmoo
Looks interesting and easy to integrate. We recently developed something similar as a module for the Caddy web server: https://github.com/TNO/auth-by-email

We developed it for a website that needed (simple) authenticated access for a read-only website, but we didn’t want to store the (hashed) passwords.

Additional features:

- email addresses for the whitelist can be stored as keyed hashes with the key provided at run-time. This way the whitelist is not on on disk in plaintext.

- Adminstration of the whitelist is done by email: upon entry of an unknown email address, the administrator gets an email with a link with which the new entry can be approved or denied.

- Kiosk-mode: user enters e-mail address on laptop, receives link on mobile, clicks link on link in mobile browser. Server detects that it is a different browser, gives user the option to login on session on laptop (for one day) or for session in mobile browser. Useful for giving demos.

Re:Minify Your SVGs on Tuesday August 13, 2019 @12:26PM (#20687319)
Somewhat related: a while ago realized that the SVGs that draw.io generates (exports) have an interesting property. If you include an SVG inside such a drawing and you export it to SVG, that SVG is actually embedded as base64. This is unfortunately not supported by some programs (e.g., Microsoft Office). A quick fix is to actually expand the SVG into the big SVG. I wrote a quick tool for this that does this for you (I should consider open sourcing this maybe). Anyway, I bet doing this and then minimizing the SVG could result in more savings?

Just curious, which Chromebook do you use and have you experimented with the maximum sample rate it can handle?
