If you have created an app with encrypted data and/or HIPAA compliance considerations, what packages and resources did you use?

Install pycryptodome instead, it's forked from pycrypto (which is dead) and is actively maintained by the same team.
- pycryptodome vs pycryptodomex is there a difference?
- Weird error when running revdep-rebuild (failed to split pycryptodome package)

Please Help. I have installed everything yet tnote dos note work, there is nothing on the net now.
The specific bug you are having is in this issue of PyCrypto. That said, tnote should move on as PyCrypto is no longer maintained.. Ideally, tnote could migrate to PyCryptodome which is a near drop in replacement for PyCrypto, so "potentially" a single line of code change.

Hello there, I have something to ask for those who use tidal-dl on termux to download hi-res music. I was new to this and i followed every command on downloading tidal-dl, but whenever I've got in "pip3 install --upgrade tidal-dl" it always ended up like this, I'm so tired try and tried it again.
Possibly not a termux only issue (see this).

Picocrypt - A FOSS 3MB Encryption Tool!
I know what you mean and I understand your concern. As it currently stands, I can say with a high level of confidence (although not complete) that Picocrypt is very secure. That's because Picocrypt uses ChaCha20, which is a simple cipher to implement correctly and without errors. It's extensively documented. I have a solid understanding of cryptography and I carefully choose a Python cryptography library with over 1k stars do implement ChaCha20. I know that there's a lot of responsibility when making security software, which is why I'm accepting donations to get Picocrypt audited as soon as possible (ideally within a year). Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it.

Help needed to navigate in lodestar code
I think I found it. This pull request helped me: https://github.com/ChainSafe/lodestar/pull/3782

Somer's guides are awesome and extremely thorough, but they help you learn to build a validator from scratch. In practice, I always download client binaries rather than building from scratch. You can find the lodestar releases page here.

My mainnet lodestar node crashed today. Thankfully, the validator process switched over to my backup lighthouse node without missing a single attestation.

Daily Goerli: I've been periodically running into some issues when updating nethermind which require force killing the Nethermind.Runner process. Recently had an issue where geth in lodestar-geth thought it was waiting for updates from lodestar, but lodestar was reporting connection refused. A restart of geth fixed it. I'm currently running into No state found for id 'head' in all lodestar instances, which was supposed to be fixed by this PR. I also recently encountered a long stack error from erigon in prysm-erigon when closing to update, but restarting both clients allowed sync to resume.

How to merge an Ethereum network right from the genesis block
The following sections outline how to configure an execution-layer client and a consensus-layer client so that they have everything in place to execute the entire merge already in the genesis block. Here, we'll use Geth and Lodestar.
