I believe the standard library for bcrypt in ruby also uses salts, it just stores the salt with the hashed password data. Salts will prevent the typical rainbow table attack where you have precomputed hashes for a large number of attempts.

We do spend more on healthcare than any other country, it's just that we also have more lawsuits than any other country -- it's what keeps costs high unfortunately. If we weren't allowed to sue doctors, we could probably have cheaper healt

well nobody says we have to go 2x in debt to pay for healthcare, we just have to stop spending cash on nation building and we'll have enough for ourselves. Of course this probably means less money "defending the border" and keeping the cou

According to: http://php.net/manual/en/function.crypt.php CRYPT_MD5 - MD5 hashing with a twelve character salt starting with $1$ So the hashes you see beginning with $1$ are probably salted.

One elegant solution mentioned at a DNSSEC talk was to simply include your crsf token in the header of all get/post requests and have the server reject anything without said token. Assuming you'd be using some js library to do your ajax, y

It was a success last time it was done. Maybe you can convince NYC Resistor to host their own.

The legendary Carmack has been working on a game called "Rage" for the past 6 years. Six years ago, iphones & androids didn't exist. Game developers do it because they enjoy it, even if the hard-core-games tend to make less dough than

Why would that matter? He was asked, and he said yes. These were options paid to him for his involvement on the board, not money invested by him. If you did some work for someone, and they paid you with stock instead of cash, wouldn't you

You still have to admit that zed went through a lot of trouble just to stop the harassment. I'd probably make a blog post too if the harassment went on for as long as it did for zed.

Well, you don't need to use your primary email username/password. It only uses this to deliver mail. Just create a new one for the purposes of Prey.

I have a $250 Fellowes MS-460C shredder that does this well. Handles 10 sheets in the normal shredder, or spam mail with CDs inside the envelope for the heavy duty shredder. I can throw my junk mail without opening them in the heavy duty s

use a $9 popcorn machine. it's easier and much much faster (takes me 5 minutes). it does generate lots of smoke, so be sure to do it outside.

If you live in the bay area, you can probably just drive to sweet maria's. The coffee capital of western hemisphere is supposedly in east bay where all the coffee comes in.

The taste of coffee is directly proportional to the length of time sitting on the shelf after roasting. Even the worst-grade green beans taste great after a fresh roast. I roast my beans in a $9 popcorn machine I bought at Walgreens.

Try doing a fgrep in 500 files. It's almost 20 times faster than my hard disk. I think it's funny how all these people spend money on a faster cpu when they could really just use a faster disk.

Actually it's around $200 for a 100gig drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227... But you can always have more than 1 hard drive. Buy a 500gig one for all your large file content and use the smaller one for th

This is a nice library, but I don't think it's newsworthy enough to be listed on HN. I hope we don't see another listing when the library hits version 0.5.1.

Maybe it would be okay to use Greplin for company mail stuff where technically the company already owns all of your emails anyway -- of course they'd have to deploy Greplin company wide though.

that number is probably averaged out. I bet it's probably more like 100,000 a second around peak hours and 500 a second in non-peak.

Even on platforms where making an http request is still only a few lines of standard library code (ruby, nodejs, python) -- there is still a vast selection of libraries that make it easier for you. (httparty, request, etc)

although 3.times is probably harder since all ruby methods take an implicit block as last parameter. The prettiest code you could do in node would be 3.times(function(){/ code /}) It would be nice if js could rid of the keyword 'function'
