minus-squarelivuslinkfedilink4•11 months ago@metaStatic I have found that the fastest way to parse long passwords eg software keys is if you underline all numbers as you write them down.
minus-square@BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish2•11 months agoNow do you misread a 7? Maybe as a T if you have particularly bad handwriting, but I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue O and 0, on the other hand… tell me why strikethrough zero isn’t standard in text format yet
minus-square@Tavarin@lemmy.calinkfedilink10•11 months agoCan be misread as a 1, especially in languages that write 1 with a more extended top bit.
minus-square@BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish1•11 months agoAh, I always write my 1s as just a straight line Though it does make all my 1s, capital Is, and lowercase ls look the same

well if you stroke through a zero, it’s too easy to confuse with an empty set
