Some of the previous arguments in favour of DV have said that safe browsing lists will catch misissuance. Yes, so what is this website doing that warrants this measure? There was no misissuance.

66 days later google.com.mg is still owned by not-Google, not revoked, and not on any 'safe browsing' warning lists. So? Why would a website be in safe browsing warning lists if it doesn't do anything malicious? Does Google

Ah, true, I forgot about it. With the following remark in specs ( https://password-hashing.net/submissions/specs/Gambit-v1.pdf ): Keccak is known to be very fast in hardware, which opens up the path to highly optim

SHA-3 (Keccak) is not a better choice, because it has a considerable performance difference between hardware and software implementations, while BLAKE is very fast in software (or current general-purpose CPUs), which is good for most defend

Thank you. Actually, what I think the best way is to make it an error to use undeclared variable, unlike in JavaScript. If it's a global, is should be declared in global scope. I really like this way of declaring variables, so please c

I understand that you can announce variable, but to be save, you'll have to announce it in every scope you want to declare it, so why not just use "var" or ":=" to declare and assign?

Cor does not has a keyword to declare variables, instead, Cor declares it for you the first time it is used. If a variable with equal name is declared in outer scope the compiler will assume you are using the declared outside. Unless you w

No, it's not hypocritical: these 1 MB and 100 request are the content of this article, i.e. useful payload, as opposed to useless irrelevant junk which is on most websites these days.

Yeah, it can also be higher. Or lower. Or bad PRNG can give the same number every time. Flipping a biased coin can also produce bad randomness. I'm not going to mention every edge case in my comment ;-) Computers are trying not to prod

Randomness looks like white noise. You can't distinguish computer randomness (provided that it's a proper PRNG) from physical coin flips. Computers don't "even out spectrum". The longer the coin flip run, the less l

No, where did you find this implication in my comment? What I meant is that: * xz is faster than bzip2 and provides better compression ratio [than bzip2] * zpaq is slower [than bzip2 and provides better compression ratio than bzip2] But loo

I used to use autojump, but switched to z — it's so simple and works fine. (I don't care if it's not going to be updated anymore, I don't need any new features. In fact, I never bothered to update it to newer version.)

FYI, this cool little project — https://code.google.com/p/miniz/ — implements faster gzip compression at level 1.

by dchest 11y ago
No, xz (on a particular level setting) is both faster than bzip2 and provides better compression ratio, but zpaq is just slower.
