If I read this correctly, the main negative point was that the author was not paid as much as his colleagues, though he did get the position. The author suggests this is because of his height. To me (a young…
I don't think anybody is saying that you shouldn't strive to understand crypto. I think the overall message is don't build systems with crypto unless you understand it, or have someone in your employ who does. If you…
How would it be cheaper if the refueling stations are free?
did you mean "who DDOS'es Github"?
In that case, wouldn't the 200x200px square with the anomaly still be highlighted as unique from the rest of the sand, since none of the sand would match it?
You managed to, in more words than the original article, completely miss the point of the original article... None of what you assume a "fuck 'em" mentality means is suggested in this article. It doesn't say that you…
I totally mean skewed right. The big part of the curve is on the left.
Even if you take 78 birthday candles to mean reach the age of 78, then there is still an issue with that statement. Likely to reach the age of 78 implies that the median age is 78, not the average. The median age is…
Your logic is infallible... I mean fallacious!
You hit the nail on the head... "an appropriate forum with as many readers as SO/SE" Stack overflow on the other hand is for people to: [A]sk practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face.…
I have a real problem with this: "I guess my point is, that if you want to become a programmer, you have to be comfortable with having to learn new things constantly for the rest of your life." I really feel like this…
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has to do something when someone corrects a person, but is wrong themselves. One of my BIGGEST pet peeves!
Post-holocaust is perfectly correct. The event of nuclear war is often refereed to as a nuclear holocaust. Note the lack of capitalization on the 'h' making it not signify the proper name for the event, the Holocaust.…
This font: TiemposHeadlineLight - was VERY difficult to read and made me want to run for the high hills.
There is a chance that if your DB is compromised, your code is as well. Additionally, what if you want to change your work factor, how would you handle doing that? If you upgrade your server environment and then all of…
I would only say that you would want to immediately reset all user passwords if the passwords were leaked, not necessarily if the algorithm that you are using is bad for whatever reason. And the idea would be to give…
When I say "Add in interoperability of hashing functions", that is pretty much exactly what I mean. I realize I left out the specific method for converting the hashes over. And your separate column for when the hash has…
Salting is no replacement for strong passwords, this would work against most any salting scheme.
Yes, storing the algorithm used in the same column would be fine as well. But if you drop the "bcrypt$" from your example, you would still run into issues if bcrypt itself is broken.
I do not see this as premature optimization. Do you store timezone information with your dates even if you are not operating in a different time zone? Do you store measurement information with a unit even if you love…
Doing a column in the database is exactly what I suggested... Also, saying that anything is "very unlikely to need replacing" is extremely short sighted of you. And the point is not to necessarily do it "in a hurry" but…
This article left out one important item, in my opinion. You should also have a way of changing what algorithm is used in doing the hashing on the fly. Perhaps a "HashVersion" column so that you can easily migrate users…
The west coast loves avocados as well. They are the fruit of life. California produces about 90% of the nation's avocado crop. http://www.avocado.org/fun-avocado-facts/
Please note that there was no analogy in my original comment. I was merely summing up the OP's argument. Additionally, as someone who has plans to write a craigslist-centric app, and took the time to read the TOS, I…
So your argument is "Since they are not doing everything they can with their content, I can steal it"?
