Signing data structures the wrong way

Snowpack is a system that uses random, immutable 64-bit domain separators in the IDL to prevent domain separation bugs in cryptographic data. It ensures canonical encodings and guarantees that the sender and receiver agree on the type of data, making it a simple and effective solution for serialization of inputs to cryptographic functions.

Intuiting Pratt Parsing

https://louis.co.nz/assets/img/pratt/ast.png
Pratt parsing is a method for parsing expressions with varying precedence by walking back up the spine of the tree when a transition operator appears and building a left-leaning subtree. The Pratt parser uses a recursive descent parser with a call stack to build the tree, and it handles left-associative and right-associative operators by adjusting their left and right binding powers.
