Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

CoffeeNode PassPhrase

CoffeeNode bSearch is a passphrase generator; it currently includes a small German wordlist.

Why?

We all know that good passwords are hard to find. xkcd famously explained how a good and memorable passphrase works:

Following these ideas, i've put together a very simple random Passphrase generator. Here is a selection of generated passphrases:

tasche-327-schwester-reparatur-tafel-965-kirche
gut-479-april-wörterbuch-einladung-tisch-771
körper-sport-390-schnaps-eintrittskarte-richard-046
gletscher-turm-027-lassen-strumpf-geld-925
kaufmann-einkaufszentrum-383-lachen-onkel-busch-786
reparatur-kino-446-lautsprecher-platz-fest-662
gesicht-schalter-gast-übung-353-oper-798
bier-warenhaus-037-mühle-amerika-415-drachen
kartoffel-musik-094-baum-herd-zeit-095
kleidung-wolga-sollen-217-teppich-fest-691
doktor-turm-brett-959-tasse-365-brust

These phrases all share the following characteristics:

  • all 'letter words' are selected from a small, but growing collection of (currently ≈400) words;
  • each passphrase has two randomly placed 'digit words' (these help to maintain a reasonable vocabulary size);
  • all 'digit words' are three digits long;
  • there is always at least one 'letter word' between the two 'digit words';
  • all words are written in lowercase;
  • all words are separated by a single dash / hyphen / minus / whatchamaycallit;
  • all words are part of the basic vocabulary of the intended audience (speakers of German);
  • all words are 'easy' to write correctly—this is not a spelling bee contest;
  • there are no names of digits or other numbers among the 'letter words' (i.e. there is no 'one', 'two', 'three' etc. to avoid confusion with '1', '2', '3');
  • the words are selected so they can be easily and clearly communicated orally;
  • all words are 'neutral' and non-offensive;
  • no two 'letter words' are repeated within a single phrase.

These rules help to maintain an easily memorable outer form of the generated passphrases; above all, the passphrases are intended to be reasonably secure while memorable and communicable without having to write them down.
