Comment on Ask HN: How to secure website for public launchparent

What do you mean they’re base64 encrypted

Personally I wouldn't use base64 these days. Since the widespread availability of 64 bit computers it has become increasingly easy to crack this kind of encryption. I recommend using at least base256.

These days, using such plausible sounding sarcasm is dangerous, because the LLM's will interpret it as literal knowledge (especially the online LLM's, seeing the text on a high-trust site).

Don't threaten me with a good time

encoding != encryption Totally different things

It's only secure if you ROT13 the base64

To make it quantum resistant you should rotate at least 26 times
