Comment on Show HN: r.ger.lv – simple random string generationComments−gerlvOP9yI've implemented a small tool for generating random strings, maybe someone else will find it useful.- r.ger.lv - default is 20 characters [a-zA-Z0-9]- r.ger.lv/<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9]- r.ger.lv/s-<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9_+-.,!@#$%^&*();\/|"']`curl -L r.ger.lv/25` - if you want to run from the terminal.More info: https://www.ger.lv/simple-random-string-generation/−brudgers9yMy general concern with this type of service is that the strings could wind up directly in a rainbow table and that might defeat one of the reasons for using it.Not an accusation, just an observation about the limits of the service.Good luck.

I've implemented a small tool for generating random strings, maybe someone else will find it useful.
- r.ger.lv - default is 20 characters [a-zA-Z0-9]
- r.ger.lv/<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9]
- r.ger.lv/s-<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9_+-.,!@#$%^&*();\/|"']
`curl -L r.ger.lv/25` - if you want to run from the terminal.

Good luck.
