Much simpler since you just need to backup a single file, if you're not running a public service with heavy traffic it's safe to assume that your db state is always consistent

DerefMut would allow you to call `clear()` on `v` violating the invariant
I'd be great is there were a way to shadow methods but even then guarantees would be poor since Vec might add a new method in the future which isn't covered by invariant checks

That might not be due to the contents but rather due to the fact that they won't negotiate I'd presume

How do they perform address book matching without an phone number? It just being accessible by SGX does not really count as not storing it.
Problem with phone numbers is they are to short to store as a hash, since you can brute force the sha256 of an phone number in a trivial amount of time on a single consumer device

Re:Stinkpot: SQLite-Backed Shell History
on Sunday July 26, 2026 @11:07AM (#49058905)
Of course but my question was more in the direction of if the data is suitable to be transferred to another host without becoming useless. The native cloud integration could be attaching an origin field to each history field whereas the db itself might only be intended for local only use.
Re:Stinkpot: SQLite-Backed Shell History
on Sunday July 26, 2026 @04:38AM (#49055990)
Does it support just synching the db via nextcloud or similar? I'd prefer to stick to the Unix philosophy of one tool for one job instead of native cloud integration

Yes 32 bit is enough because in PAKE its used for authenticstion not encryption. Which means you get exactly one attempt to brute force after which the procedere will fail
Re:Croc: Securely transfer files and folders between two computers

The transfer is end2end encrypted using a PAKE key change which is aithenticated using the 3 words you enter in the reveiving end
