It seems easier to optimize because you're starting out so far away from the goal, so you have a lot of space to improve. The money you mostly end up "saving" is money that you didn't really need to spend in the first pl

That's not really true at all. Almost everyone uses Google-controlled email addresses, so even if I don't, Google still gets our entire conversations. There's no option to avoid that except just refusing to email almost every

Sure, Google's probably (hopefully) not doing anything "evil" with all this data right now, but are you absolutely certain that they never will in the future? That they'll never be forced to give access to the data

It gets even more frightening if you realize that you're probably not even considering all of the "deeper" levels. Almost everything I listed in my comment was pretty surface-level stuff, where it's at least somewhat obv

Personally, I think Google is just as terrifying, possibly more. As an example, just take a fairly normal life situation like going out for dinner with some friends, and think about how much of it goes "through" Google: --- One of

SpaceChem does it too. It's also great if you have people on your friends list that play the games, since then you can see their exact scores and turn it into a direct competition.

Oh, very cool, thanks for posting. I had actually written a really basic cracker and started seeing if I could figure out how many of them belonged to shorter passwords, but you're doing a much, much better job of it than I am (I was j

Reducing the size by ~95% in exchange for a 0.001% error rate seems like a pretty nice tradeoff to be able to make for some uses. The nature of the data means it can never really be "perfect" anyway (there are certainly some passw

One really unfortunate aspect of the passwords being hashed is that there's no info available about their lengths. Knowing the lengths could allow you to reduce the size considerably when you enforce a minimum password length. For exam

Ah okay, sorry. I was thinking about it from the perspective of common passwords since that's something I've tried to find an existing bloom filter for before. I agree with you that Troy would probably be one of the best people to

by Deimorz 9y ago
It's not ideal, but shouldn't be a big issue, since a false positive just means that you (very rarely) tell a user that a password is unacceptable when it should have been fine. That's a bit annoying for the user, but the res

Ha, interesting. Glad to see you doing so well with Discord, I used to spend a ton of time on the BG forums back in around 2009 or so, and vaguely remember giving some feedback on the very first versions of Guildwork.

This looks a fair amount like Guildwork ( http://guildwork.com/ ), which I remember trying to do a fairly similar thing a few years back (but aimed more specifically at MMORPGs, I think). The founder of Guildwork is actually

Terrifying in some ways, but I think it's also inspiring. It's pretty amazing to have some evidence that there's still that much "room" left at the top of the game for players to continue improving.
