Goldbach Turing machine with 47 states

Goldbach's conjecture tested by a 47-state Turing machine
Author: Jared Showalter
If "a" and "i" were unbounded, this program would halt iff Goldbach's
conjecture is false. Furthermore, the program structurally
corresponds to a Turing machine with two symbols, one tape, and a
small number of states. The array "a" corresponds to the tape (each

Example list of first words to use in a git commit title

I like writing well-formed git commits that explain the intention behind why a code change was made.

Check out Chris Beams excellent How to Write a Git Commit Message if you haven't read it.

Anyway, for a project I've been working on I've gathered up 900+ commits that hold up a pretty high quality (except for one 😁). Let's look at some trends about these commits!

Most common first words in commit titles of a project

Generating the master key

Here we create the master key. We want only Certify capability: we use the master key only to create the subkeys, Sign - Encrypt - Authenticate capabilities will be assigned to the subkeys.

Run the following command to start the master key generation process. Select the set your own capabilities creation process (type 8)

Arch Linux Full-Disk Encryption Installation Guide [Encrypted Boot, UEFI, NVMe, Evil Maid]

Arch Linux Full-Disk Encryption Installation Guide

This guide provides instructions for an Arch Linux installation featuring full-disk encryption via LVM on LUKS and an encrypted boot partition (GRUB) for UEFI systems.

Following the main installation are further instructions to harden against Evil Maid attacks via UEFI Secure Boot custom key enrollment and self-signed kernel and bootloader.

Preface

You will find most of this information pulled from the Arch Wiki and other resources linked thereof.

Note: The system was installed on an NVMe SSD, substitute /dev/nvme0nX with /dev/sdX or your device as needed.
