So, today I did my first attempt at home made gummies using 35g of gelatine with 1 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar.  When it cooled though, all I had was really tough jello.  Should I just add more gelatine, or is there another chemical I could use?  I have looked at methylcellulose, carrageenan, agar, cornstarch, and pectin in addition to gelatine, but there doesn't seem to be a good comparison of these on the web.  Additionally, if anyone has insight into special techniques I could use, it would be really helpful.  Thanks
I've been trying a simple recipe I found on the internet, which is a simple recipe consisting mostly of gelatin.  The problem is that the end result is basically just a fruit-flavoured jelly (Jell-O?), rather than the more chewy gummy-bears (Haribo) style of jelly confectionery.  Can anyone suggest what I need to do to make them less springy and more chewy.  It's all difficult to articulate!  Here's what I used for the first test-batch:   12 tbsp sugar 12/3 cup fruit juice 8 tbsp Golden Syrup 8 tbsp gelatin   soften the gelatin in 1/2 cup of cold water. place sugar, syrup and the juice in a pan and gently heat until sugar dissolves. Stir in the gelatin and stir until dissolved. Pour into moulds and wait until set.    Thanks

Robust and clear error handling is a plus (instead of ). What are the increased possibilities (if any) of being able to crack a private key given the following:   The associated bitcoin (ECDSA Secp256k1-based) public key is known. The private key has been used to generate a public key from a different ECDSA curve and that public key is also known. It is known that the two public keys are derived from the same private key. It is known which ECDSA curves were used to generate the public keys. It is known which ECDSA curve was used to generate which public key.   Does it make any more difference if there is data that is known to have been signed by the private key and the signature(s) are known and the raw data is known?

Insert image from Google Drive into Google Sheets How do I insert/link to images existing in a folder in Google Drive into a Google Sheets spreadsheet?  There is the image() function, I imagine using it something like this:  image("googledrive://somefodleringoogledrivewithmypics/pic_1.png")   How?  Update: Some people noted that by uploading pictures to Picasa, we can then get the URL of each picture and use that. It works. The downside of this is that we have to copy each and every URL of all images. I put that in a separate sheet, then use VLOOKUP to get each image URL per index. It works but the URL copying part is a hell of a job if you have lots of images of course. A better solution is needed. How do I install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package?

Mouse pointer and keyboard Freeze when pluggin in external hard drive so as I say in the title I have this very big, annoying problem. On my new PC (HP Omen 2020, i7-10750h, Nvidia RTX 2070, 16GB RAM) when I connect an external hard drive (precisely an WD My Passport Ultra, 3TB) I get occasionally mouse and keyboard freezes. Practically, the system becomes unusable. The mouse and keyboards works, they even show in device manager, but from time to time (too often) they &quot;freezes&quot;: mouse pointer freeze, and it won't respond to my input, and keyboard too, if I type something it will not respond. First I thought this was a behaviour due to bad drivers, or something related to my new PC, the fact that it has USB 3.1 ports. But then I've noticed that this fact happens only when I connect my WD Hard Disk (which is USB 3.0) to my pc. I've tried some stuff online, suggesting to update drivers, change some windows settings, but with no success. My guess is that the hard disk and the mouse-keyboard does interfere with each other in some ways. I guess that it's a software problem, at driver levels maybe, not a physical one. When the mouse doesn't respond, I've tried to use the touchpad on the notebook, and it does work. So it's not a windows freeze, it's just the device (mouse-keyboard-receiver) that doesn't respond. The mouse and keyboard are from Logitech, bot connected with the Unifiying receiver (a wireless receiver they provide for the mouse and the keyboard). Model: MX Anywhere 2S for the mouse, K360 for the keyboard. Please, help me solve this problem, monday I start taking my engineering class lessons from MS Teams, and I need my pc up and running and well responsive (I need to access data from the hard disk while I take classes). PS: I've seen that there are some other questions like this in the forum, but none of them seems to provide a solution to the problem. I would also change the external hard drive in the future, but I need to know that the problem with this one won't show with another hard drive, or other devices. I've already sent this very same post to Microsoft community, I really need help with this thing otherwise it will be a problem following my online classes. Thank you if you will try to help me EDIT: On the notebook in question I have 4 USB 3.1 Ports, with two ports on each side, and a single Type-C Thunderbolt port (I'm not counting that one cause both the hard disk and the logitech receiver are USB 3.0 type A connectors). I've already tried switching USB port, connecting the WD Hard Disk to another port, doing the same on the logitech receiver, and I've even tried putting them one on the left side and the other to the right side, to minimize &quot;interference&quot; as someone suggested. But nothing, I still got this problem, which seems driver-related.

Key Derivation Functions vs. Password Hashing Schemes Key derivation functions, such as HKDF (standardized in ), are meant to stretch some initial keying material having enough entropy, like a Diffie-Hellman shared value, into one or more strong cryptographic secret keys.   Password-hashing schemes, such as the  winner , are meant to hash usually low-entropy passwords with the goal of making the hash digest inversion as costly as possible for an adversary with respect to CPU and memory consumption, as well as parallelization.  Is it exact to consider that password-hashing schemes are actually key derivation functions specialized for low-entropy inputs? Or is there any other essential difference of theoretical nature between these two types of cryptographic schemes?
