In plain words
Entropy Based Password Validation is a tool that evaluates password strength using entropy calculations. Designed for developers and security-conscious users, it assesses how secure a password is by measuring the randomness and complexity of characters used. The tool applies mathematical entropy principles to provide objective feedback on password robustness, helping users create stronger credentials and understand what makes passwords resistant to cracking attempts.

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

It's been a long slow hog and I almost gave up a few times (more than a few) but when covid hit this year it gave me some time to really focus on my product.

My product is SongBox (https://songbox.rocks) - it's an alternative to things like bandcamp and soundcloud for creators who need to share audio files privately.…
