I usually use this sieve any time I need to work with small prime numbers, but I dug deeper into probabilistic primality tests recently. If you try to run a sieve on large numbers you quickly realize that it is not feasible. Probabilistic p

Yep. Any amount of emails over 60 per minute shuts off the person's inbox. This limit is calculated before applying any filters, so obvious junk still trips the limit.

Apparently it is fairly trivial to DDoS a Gmail account's inbox. An attacker completely shut off my (and several other developers') incoming email for 3 days and counting. The attack is apparently using a script to register me to

This title is odd. Business that have ATMs instead of credit card machines are already cash only. It would be more accurate to say "without power to run credit card machines, Puerto Rico is cash only." It would be nice if there wa

Is stack overflow traffic a good indicator of library growth? It seems like libraries with really good documentation would require fewer stack overflow questions regardless of their popularity.

I did not know that this was an unsolved problem. It is quite paradoxical. You can map the subset of rational numbers in the range [0, 1) to the set of natural numbers, so there are an infinite number of disjoint subsets of the rational num

The narrative in my mind was that this single developer didn't want to split his profits by hiring more developers. I think it is pretty arrogant for a developer to assume they can maintain a multi-platform application the size of Subl
