The news is that I found it after giving up on trying to use regexes to parse what our users think their phone numbers are, and I thought it would be useful for other devs. I don't remember seeing it here, but maybe it was in the back

Is it really wise to choose a random number generator based on RC4, which is known to have remarkably strong biases? Surely it would be better to use something based on ChaCha20, Keccak or Spritz if you have the choice?

It can be reimplemented from scratch in a few hundred lines of code? It's not really the same thing, though. CDB provides a single key -> value mapping in a single file, with updates by replacing the entire file; SQLite is a relatio

Both are PowerPC 750-based according to Wikipedia, which is part of why the Wii U runs games released for the Wii. Note that PowerPC, as used in the Wii, Wii U and old Macs, is not exactly the same as POWER, as in this announcement. The POW

It's potentially useful for TLS over UDP, aka DTLS, which is A Thing. I've seen DTLS used for VPNs, but I think it can be used with things like SIP and WebRTC. I don't know if TLS heartbeats are used in any of these protocols
