I've got a little challenge for you.<\/p>\n\n
ib jb eikybfi eite hvim\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<\/div>\n\nCan you translate this encrypted text back to its original form?<\/p>\n\n
If you do, send me an email at math2001.contact@protonmail.com<\/a> explaining how you found it, and I'll add you to the glorious list of people who found the solution \ud83d\ude04 (see below).<\/p>\n\n\n \n \n Rules\n<\/h3>\n\n
I guarantee you the original message:<\/p>\n\n
\n- contains only lower case ASCII letters (
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<\/code>)<\/li>\n- has the same spaces as in the encrypted message. So you know that the first word will have 2 letters, the second one as well, the third one 7, etc...<\/li>\n
- can only translated to one string (the one I gave you)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\n \n \n They found it!\n<\/h3>\n\n\nThe glorious and amazing people who had a crack and found the secret message!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
The list is over here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n \n \n Solution\n<\/h3>\n\n
Hey hey. Smart one, looking at the right place, \ud83d\ude04<\/p>\n\n
I'll be posting the original message, as well as an explanation about how it worked on my blog<\/a> next week, that is the Friday 1 June 2018<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n","category":["challenge","cipher"]},{"title":"Display a file from another branch","pubDate":"Wed, 16 May 2018 07:07:41 +0000","link":"https:\/\/dev.to\/math2001\/display-a-file-from-another-branch-1efp","guid":"https:\/\/dev.to\/math2001\/display-a-file-from-another-branch-1efp","description":"Ever wanted to see a file from a different branch?

SVG images are awesome, I absolutely love it (and who doesn't). A great thing about them is that you can combine them very easily, and use integrate them into<\/em> your web page in single line. <\/p>\n\nIt makes your website faster since you only make one HTTP request instead of .<\/p>\n\n

Here's my answer: VIM<\/strong> and Sublime Text<\/strong><\/p>\n\nSublime text is better than vim except for the fact that it doesn't support fully (yet) VIM mappings (and plugins, but I could deal with this). I use the Six<\/code> package, a python emulation of VIM (ST plugins are written in Python).<\/p>\n\nST is absolutely beautiful, amazingly fast, supports proper project management (settings per project for example), a proper multi cursor (not a hack like vim-multiple-cursor), great syntax highlighting (engine and rules), and much<\/em> more...<\/p>\n\nDespite all these advantages, I'm still using the actual VIM, sometimes giving another go at ST (like right now).<\/p>\n\n
