The Cipher Behind QSYRUPWD: Reconstructing IBM i Password Hashes
- kencausey 4mo agoLink stolen from calvin on lobste.rs. <https://lobste.rs/s/2dc0gb/cipher_behind_qsyrupwd_reconstructing https://lobste.rs/s/2dc0gb/cipher_behind_qsyrupwd_reconstruc...>
- VorpalWay 3mo agoThat seems a bit harsh, we dont know if both posters discovered this article independently.
- defrost 3mo agoI think we can assume the HN poster is well aware of where they first saw this submission link.
- VorpalWay 3mo agoEven if they did (and I dont see any evidence either way), lobsters is an entirely different site (that also requires invites, excluding the majority of users from commenting). Since the other person decided to not post it on HN I dont see the harm in someone else reposting it here. Likewise if someone discovers something neat via HN they might repost it on, say, reddit (or vice versa).
- defrost 3mo agoUhhh, by any chance have you looked at the user name that submitted this and the user name that made the comment you replied to?
- firefax 3mo agoDid I wander into Reddit for a moment? We can do Reddit on HN if we want -- hell I'm jonesing for it, I bristle at restrictions on my literary tone... but obsessing over who "stole" a link seems juvenile. Links were made to be shared :-)
- VorpalWay 3mo agoOops I missed that indeed. Too early in the morning, my bad.
