With a hash it’s difficult to find a combination that results in this specific hashed password. Think of it like this: you have a biiig prime number and you multiply it by another. Now, that’s easy, but it’s way harder to do it backwards - factorize a large composite number (this is just for illustration). Similarly trying to find a password that works when you input it based on the hashed one is way more difficult than hashing the password in the first place.

This. What you just wrote. I totally agree. Like a chef serving a bowl of stew, you stuck your ladle into my brain and from my incoherent abstract thoughts were able to form the exact sentiment of what it is I was feeling. Down to a decimal of a decimal, more perfectly than I ever could have iterated, you captured the essence of every nuance I experienced relating to the subject matter. No words could portray the awe I felt knowing that somebody shared the exact same thought process as me. Not only that, but with the ability to articulate in such a refined manner the depth of said thought process. No words could describe that feeling. Except one. This.

This. So much this! This accentuates my inner being and my soul as well. I was scrolling through the comments when I came across yours, and now I don’t even have post my comment because this is exactly what I would’ve said. I can’t emphasize this enough everyone, this comment right here is beyond the mortal planar, the very purpose behind this post and exactly what I’m looking for and should be what you’re looking for. I can’t believe I’ve lived my entire life without this post. Here take a poor man’s gold 🏅. Someone gild this post please. I’ll have you know I saved and upvoted, but keep in mind that if it was at 69 or 420 I wouldn’t (sorry but keks are more important). I’ll also have you know that I downvoted first so I’m basically worth double, no need to thank me. I’m probably going to put this on my wall that’s how much it means to me.

Lesson for the future: stop using crappy illegible fonts in a code editor, and use something nice like Fira Code or even Fira Mono or Sans if you don’t like ligatures.

Edit: In the middle of writing this I realized it was a confusion between “1” and “l”, which makes the font choice even more bizarre. What kinda garbage font doesn’t distinguish between the two? I could understand if it was capital “i” and lowercase “l” since they look extremely similar in most sans serif fonts, but “1” and “l”?

Also it takes like 10 seconds to change the name of a variable across the whole file with a modern code editor like VSCode or an IDE for the specific language you were working with. If they were confusing you, you could have just changed “reclst” into “last_record” and that would save you a day of work.
