      For all my American friends, “nonce” is equivalent to “pedo”.

        I got to learn this after I started referring to a label at work as ‘nonce’ because of how it looked – “NONC-3”

        and THEN I found out the definition of the term

          I knew the definition from way back and had a time when learning about cryptographic nonces https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_nonce

          A nonce is jargon in cryptography. It means a random unique value used to make it impractical for an attacker to guess in a protocol.

        Appreciate it.

        I kept seeing it like “Death to arbitrary numbers in Cryptography?”

          I know right? “Number used Once” is what I was taught.

        Thank you, I struggled to look it up and find an answer that made any sense 😅

        So it’s not ‘once’ but for 0? Sad face.
