Very nice site, I'd donate if I weren't saving to buy my own MacBook (probably would also help if I had a PayPal account) I know exactly how it is to lack a mac. I've been a Windows user up until about a month ago, when I finally threw my

Have you seen ES.next? It's worse. I want to see T39 just start over and aim for the same elegant JS-style solutions that Dart has shown for things like class declarations and a separate int type. Instead they're adding things nobody gives

NPM is by far the best package manager ever. We all owe Isaac so much booze for that.

I would be curious to see an analysis of the Node Package Manager (npmjs.org) and the general Node package structure. NPM is basically encapsulated into one command (npm), and there are no ways for modules to modify the way Node itself work

I think if it never links directly to HN, we'll be safe.

Hacker News is like Digg but without so much sucking. If Digg were 100% programmers, it would be Hacker News. I personally think this is a good idea if only to reduce duplicates and such. As long as we never explicitly link to Hacker News i

I'm worried that the system is too slow for too little benefit. I'm also worried the CPU usage might also be higher than a simple SHA-2 hash. I also worry that it's not really as "future-proof" as people seem to think. Every algorithm get

The problem is, I've actually not seen anything arguing that bcrypt was cryptographically stronger, only thing arguing it was exponentially slower.

SQL is text-based, and therefore injections are far easier. NoSQL (specifically Mongo) does not generally just plug user-provided info into a string, and is therefore secure against injections. Age does not matter. In many cases, youth ca

But I'm wondering, does increasing the work factor actually make the algorithm stronger? Am I still risking bcrypt being cryptographically broken?

I agree, apple really dropped the ball in this case. In fact, how did this app manage to slip through the review process? It seems to me that the only purpose is to funnel stolen money to somebody. Sadly, the state of many online security s

"Sonangol was deemed so corrupt in 2003 that Citibank closed all its accounts." Wow, when corrupt companies consider a company corrupt, that's not a good sign.

From what I understand, the entire reason why we have public goods is because to have it private would cause many people to be left without service. If it were privatized, the companies would not bother to spend money servicing routes which

Not even a crisis will convince Congress to let them do it. I mean, look at what happened with the budget.

Apple obviously knew there was something off. Their systems detected an issue. Detecting an intrusion is obviously not a problem, though I do think your suggestions for detection would be nice. The way it reacted to an intrusion, however
