What's the threat model? Does this lock secure a location that has no windows? Can a sledgehammer be used to open the door? Ok, so maybe covert entry is harder. Do you care THAT much about covert entry? If you care that much about covert entry, do you also have video monitoring? Security solutions need to be used in context.
Well by your own logic you shouldn’t need a secure password for anything either since you can beaten with a stick.
Interesting design. I made a lock a couple years ago that is quite similar in principle (though this design is different and has a couple nice improvements). https://youtu.be/_7vPNcnYWQ4 One of my main goals is to be an inspiration, though if it was based by my design I wish they’d credit it. Especially since they’re patenting it.

I didn't know you were here on HN, though it makes absolute sense you would be. Amazing content, your shows are some of the best YT has to offer.
His shop is also any ME major's wet dream (and he totally earned it!).

+1. LPL has disproven the claims of many "unpickable" locks. If computer security has taught me anything, unhackable/impenetrable claims, cyber or physical, should be met with skepticism.
I have always said "if someone made it, someone can break it" Nothing is unhackable/impenetrable. period.
I love how this follows the TED talk playbook: 1: “Here is a thing you are all familiar with” 2: “What if we thought about it DIFFERENTLY?” 3: “Here is the new yet intuitive way to think about it” 4: (Applause. Audience leaves with a easy-to-understand story to tell at cocktail parties) Great work, and very cool lock.

The interaction of engineering and "use" by the Lock Picking Lawyer ( https://youtu.be/Ecy1FBdCRbQ ) was fascinating - "use" here really meaning "exploiting". It's a problem many here are aware of, either by over-engineering things intended for use by non-engineers, or designing things to be used by customers when the designer isn't intimately familiar with the use. In this case it was sort of somewhere in between. I…
Do it in the open, like Stuff Made Here!
