Although a very handy tutorial, and it's great that it's open source, but the problem is you're still trusting a random server to promise to delete your data. Sure I'm not actually interesting enough for anybody to care about me, but given the cost of a Pi these days, it's a higher cost to make, and it's just trading out which company do you trust for a product with less features. That being said it's still a fun 'make it because' project.

Now we only heard two characters, but a 50% success rate is pretty dreadful. See "send three and fourpence, we're going to a dance"! I also noticed it used some weird and obsolete (possibly US? - in either sense of the acronym!) units for temperature, instead of Celcius. What other surprises - rainfall in drops per minute per chain/square maybe, or windspeed in furlongs per fortnight? I also wonder where the weather is for, since within the UK, we don't allocate IP addresses geographically.

@christopherfekete54532 жыл бұрын
They're basically a way to verify a file hasn't been altered either maliciously or accidentally (say some data gets corrupted while downloading the file). So it's similar to a fingerprint for the file, it's usually very unique and hard to duplicate. It's generated by the file provider to allow you to verify the file integrity. For a bit more detail, SHA256 is a hashing algorithm so it basically takes some input data, your file, then performs some calculation on it and spits out a long unique string. Small alterations to the source will cause the unique string to look completely different and it would be very very difficult to make an alternation that matches the original fingerprint, though it is possible.
