Jokes on me, the bank site doesn’t allow for special characters and has a hard limit of 10 characters.
Mine are typical error messages.
See you next time!
… and apostrophes to your plurals?
,“Comma passworders hate this simple, trick”,
Interesting… I wrote a gag comment about using an SQL injection as my password and crashed the Lemmy API. Using connect if that makes any difference.
noice! Did the ‘; DROP TABLE USERS;’ respond?
Almost line for line. A wall of XML popped up when I hit submit. Looks like yours went through.
Can you make a pastebin of the text? I’m curious.
Trying. Can’t seem to replicate the string. Maybe if it happens again.

Crazy
Like the Bobby tables? Can u put it in a coffee?
SQL injection in the big 2025…
Friend, we’re still seeing publicly exposed plaintext credentials in 2025…
I haven’t kept up with the cybersecurity world recently. Ever since I graduated I’ve just been completely fed up with IT. Is there a story behind this? Has a major service done this lately?
I ran into it within the last month.
Bobby’, –
It’ll just get escaped by quotes.
EDIT: it might be a better idea to use non-ascii characters.
I don’t think they actually store any passwords, usually hashes are stored for better security. Of course not everyone does this so yeah thanks to Skeleton.
fun fact, “commas” does not require an apostrophe
I’m watching the collective knowledge of my civilization crumble and I’m powerless to stop it

If you have to ask Grok … : /
I have a urge to create a lemmy equivalent of grok now
Instead of Mecha Hitler, will it call itself Mecha Lenin?
I will investigate an mvp
I can help. DM me
Single quotes are another great way to mess with unsanitized data input though
Commas might be the comma’s property. Step off.
But then add comma’s what?
Yeah, but look at how many extra comments that generates. I’m starting to think that intentionally bad grammar is sometimes a good social media tactic to create engagement on top of what you’re already doing, but I’m not excluding people being just plain illiterate.
csv’s are a horrible format. Tabs are superior in almost all use cases except that 0.00001% use case where someone has put a tab in their name.
Never heard of a tsv
Get the…
Get the HELL outta here
Get OUTTA HERE NOWI don’t get the joke… ?
I am assuming there really is a standardized format that uses tabs? Or do you just see it as intuitive to replace the commas with tabs? I’m really curious. I haven’t typically worked with huge datasets but when I’ve worked with exported/transitional data stored in files it is normally either a json or a csv (or a mysql export).
Bit of a joke related to bringing “what is TSV” to an “intense” TSV vs CSV debate.
As for TSV itself, it’s a widely used standard from 32 years ago, and is often a default record delimiter when used with GNU/POSIX tools.
It mostly exists as legacy at this point, as people now prefer quoted values like those given in CSV (ver2) and JSON formats.
Also most of (continental) Europe uses semi-colon delimiter, because comma is decimal separator.
I hate this so much, decimal localisation should be visually represented and saved with decimal points.
It’s only decimal “point” in English though.
True!
Ah, ok. Thanks for this response!
Wow an actual unpopular opinion. They’re always in the comments.
wink!
ASCII values 0x1C through 0x1F: are we a joke to you?
I use 9 from this, and that’s all I need! Though I am curious as to what a vertical tab looks like
Edit: oh wow it exists in python
I cannot even imagine how that is useful on a terminal in the eighties

Momentary flashback to when I put the bell in the command prompt format. Every time you pressed enter or a command finished, beep.
Couldn’t get it to work on Linux though.
I still hear the damn chime when working on a Windows 11 PC terminal. Every damn time.
Needs the Taco Bell bong
he’s not wrong though.
Is there a way to add a tab into my password?
You can try \t. Try adding a bell while you’re at it.
ok, I’ll have a password like this
. , : /t ;
I didn’t hear any bells, but it’s a start. 👍
This is far superior to Hunter2 as a password.
Beat me to it.
Is that an instruction?
That’s why I use “” to escape the commas.
Guys calm the fuck down. The point of this joke is not that you’ll be bulletproof a few in sort of a few commas and passwords every now and then. The point is that a lot of these guys use terrible scripts that do not parse data correctly and they dump all of this shit into large CSV files. One or two people put an errand, in there that it doesn’t expect and it fucks the whole thing sideways for the entire set everything after the asshole with the comma password gets fucked. People that know what they’re doing will be just fine with it, but scammers generally don’t know what the fuck they’re doing and they pass this data along over and over and over again it change his hands frequently. So there’s more chances for it to get fucked along the way.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t text with commas in it get put in double quotes in acsv file to avoid this exact thing?
Like if I had cells (1A: this contains no comma), (2B: this, contains a comma), and (3C: end of line), the csv file would store (this contains no comma,“this, contains a comma”,end of line)
Yes and no. Like yes, that can be true. But a lot of tools don’t handle commas correctly no matter how you escape them.
Only if it’s actually using a standard like rfc 4180 https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt
Also just noticed it specifies CRLF as the line ending, not LF, which is kind of weird.
Also 4180 is not a standard (it says on the first page)
A CSV is just a long string of text with a few control characters tossed in for end lines. There are practically no rules enforced by the file type itself. You can dump that unsanitized and poorly awk’d data into whatever awful mess you want. Nobody’s stopping you. Sure, excel will force it’s CSV formatting rules on you when you export like a child’s training wheels. But that’s not relevant here.
