hash number

Read a random definition: frustration

A quick definition of hash number:

Hash number: A special code created by a computer program that helps to make sure that a digital signature is unique and secure. It's like a secret code that only the computer can understand, and it helps to keep important information safe.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A hash number is a unique numerical code that is generated by encryption software. It is used to create a digital signature, which is a way to verify the authenticity of a message or document.

For example, when you sign a document electronically, your computer generates a hash number based on the contents of the document. This hash number is then encrypted using your private key, creating a digital signature that can be verified using your public key.

Another example is when you log in to a website using a password. The website doesn't store your actual password, but rather a hash number that is generated based on your password. When you enter your password, the website generates a new hash number and compares it to the one stored in its database. If they match, you are granted access.

The use of hash numbers is important for security because they are virtually impossible to reverse-engineer. Even if someone were to intercept your digital signature or the hash number used to verify your password, they would not be able to use it to gain access to your account or forge your signature.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
if you join fedsoc and go for clerking and eventually become a judge. you will be pinholed into maga politics as long as maga is the predominant conservative stance
Idk if @irishdinosaur is online but congrats on UCLA!!

yes congrats irishdinosaur! that's incredible

@IrishDinosaur: you inspire me and my completely misguided cope that I might ever get into UCLA
Super big congrats irish!!!
Also pretty much agree with Wasp. I think it’s more about getting the political/judicial position as a Fedsoc member that will likely require a stance siding with whatever the conservative majority party is at that time.

Yeah, that's fair. I guess I need to think about it more assuming I start law school in the fall. I really want to clerk and that seems like the best option.
BUT i think once you get the position, you’ll have more leeway in making decisions more liberally. Sort of like how ACB and Gorsuch sometimes swing left after being portreayed in the media as far right (not sure if that was actually the case though).
From the perspective of someone who interned at the White House, I will add that my bosses always told me to “be careful about my resume.” Don’t want to align with any org that doesn’t fit your values because you won’t be trusted by the other side until you show them you’re legit again, and word travels in DC.

I mean I highly highly doubt I'll become a federal judge, it's more just about getting a leg up in getting opportunities in the first place
Not sure how that true that is in practice and sorry for the long messages💀

And, yeah, that's fair. Right now my resume probably looks like it's from someone who is center-right
Honestly, it just depends on your values. If you ever see yourself being a dem member in any capacity, then MAYBE stay away. But like you just said, there’s a possibility to look moderate with the right WE post law school.

Yeah, that's true as well. As a side note, it's very cool you interned with the white house, I know those internships are incredibly hard to get

A lot of conservativism right now is also just be as aggressive and unwilling to compromise in decision making right now because the left is out there in lets appeal to 1% of the population land so proposals brought to the table by them are 1, insane and 2, all or nothing proposals with no compromise.

It's a bad time to be partisan really in any way.
I had to apply 4 times and got off the WL so I barely got it. It was a cool exp but def not any work crazier than you would see on capitol hill or any political org imo.
texaslawhopefully
18:14
It def looks great on your resume though
Yeah thats why i did it😂 it was a crazy time bcuz i had to commute from 2 hrs away since i was paying rent in madison and i couldnt afford another apt in DC
Never again.

the 1% argument is crazy dk
Even the the wh internship is good on the resume, the legal assistant work is more practical. It was tuff to make a why law with no direct law exp
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: yooo i got a BL interview on monday even with ass grades somehow lol
