  • Some people will do anything except use SI units

  • Presumably yes, but its still down to a roll of the dice whether a mutation like that happens in the first place, and whether the individuals who have that mutation live long enough to breed, and whether that mutation actually gets passed down, etc

  • "Mammalogy" yeah you chose the correct wojak that's a weaksauce name

  • Unreal that AI is so ubiquitous apparently in programming, that I as a non-AI-user had to come to the comments to understand wtf this meant

  • How are you supposed to program without programming socks?

  • I oscillate the lever at a rate such that I cannot know whether the wave-trolley went through while the detectors were on or off, introducing further uncertainty.

  • What? Its evolving!

    Coldsideofyourpillow turned into Warmsideofyourpillow!

  • Despite causing myself harm, I am causing you to cease to exist, yes? :3c

  • warms up your cold side

  • You take that back! My programming socks are the source of my power!

  • I think if you were nicer and explained what you believe instead of having a goal of being contrarian or playing devils advocate (which, when you do so, you advocate for the devil), people would not think you are a troll. They might think other negative things about you, but probably not that you're a troll.

  • Aaaaah I totally misunderstood why you were taking 2n. You were taking 2n in case the truncated string was the same as one you already had. Makes more sense now.

  • Looks nice - though I don't feel great about the 2n solution to apostrophes. You could just as well end up with 2n words with apostrophes, no? Its not particularly robust.

    With n=6, and only grabbing n words, you have a roughly 88.24% chance of getting at least one word with an apostrophe (ie, you can't generate a valid passphrase) With n=6, and grabbing 2n words, you have a roughly 3.86% chance of getting at least 7 words with an apostrophe (ie, you can't generate a valid passphrase). That's more than 1 in 30 fail!

    If every apostrophed word has a non-apostrophe pair, as you say, then perhaps better practice would be to keep the dictionary in order and generate a (somewhat) random number as an index to grab. If it has an apostrophe, grab the next/previous word (ie, its pair).

    Might be trickier to fit into exactly 27 lines, but at least it would be robust?

    Edit: in hindsight, if the dictionary is required for this to function in the first place, you could just pre-prune it to remove apostrophe words
