Yesterday's RoseOh! I have a good idea. I need to quickly add a new feature on my movie database app.
Why can't I access my raspberry pi? [5 mins of troubleshooting]
...Oh darn, router has apparently changed the pi's IP address. Well, no biggie.
[random setting file editing]
Ooh! #RubyLang 4.0 is apparently out.
[rvm furiously compiling for 10+ minutes]
...Might as well upgrade to #RubyOnRails 8.1 while I'm at it, doesn't look like a massive change.
[hit da button to make bundler redownload a whole bunch of gems for ages and I don't even know if it's successful yet but I hope so]
...right, where the hell was I?

Mike RoachToday I needed to write a passphrase generator and I was looking around for a good word list for this. The EFF publishes a list of words that are a good fit for passphrases for reasons they explain. Very nice!
Dead-simple Ruby code to generate some passphrases that are 3 words long, include a digit, capital letters, and dashes.
words = 3.times.map { word_list.sample.capitalize }
ix = rand(words.count)
words[ix] = format("%s%i", words[ix], rand(9))
words.join("-")
EFF Dice-Generated Passphrases
Create strong passphrases with EFF's new random number generators! This page includes information about passwords, different wordlists, and EFF's suggested method for passphrase generation. Use the directions below with any set of dice.And now, a message from internationally renowned security...

Enum types in Ruby
When I start a new project in Ruby, the first module I copy over is my custom little enum.rb. Many popular programming languages have built-in support for enums. C, C++, C#, Go, Java, Rust, Swift, but also looser-typed languages like PHP and Python. Ruby doesnโt have native support for enum types, but itโs not hard to add and add some clarity and cleanliness to your code.
