Regardless of the issue mentioned in this article, it could be argued that encrypting cookies, which basically means that you're storing data on a user's computer which the user is not allowed to even look at, is a flawed idea. If the use

I don't know ASP.NET at all, but this is the way I understood the article: If a developer writes a cookie , it's not encrypted and the user can easily change it. Just normal cookies. If a developer writes a session cookie , ASP.NET encryp
784.
by judofyr 16y ago
I believe the real solution to this problem is to not encrypt the cookies at all, but rather just use HMAC to make sure no-one can tamper with them. If you need to put sensitive data in cookies, you're doing it wrong!

More from Wikipedia (which this version doesn't have): The name LISP derives from "LISt Processing". Linked lists are one of Lisp languages' major data structures, and Lisp source code is itself made up of lists. As a result, Lisp programs

Ehm? Where's the Lisp? This is just Python syntax in S-expressions.

Heh, I've already used the name Handlebars for a Mustache-related project: http://github.com/judofyr/handlebars . It's basically a JIT for Mustache which speeds up rendering. Nobody uses it, though, so I don't mind. BTW: I've written major

I see your point and I agree that it's possible to make your app gracefully handle exceptions. However, there's no way Rails can automate it for you: you still have to carefully design your app to handle it. If Rails can help you make it e

The authentication / authorization was merely an example, and I agree that most of these solutions are done before rendering occurs. However, my point is that in order to take advantage of flushing, you want to start sending the HTML as soo

From the post: For Rails 3.1, we wanted a mostly-compatible solution with the same programmer benefits as the existing model, but with all the benefits of automatic flushing And from there he goes on with very specific implmentation detai

In Rack you need to return a body which responds to #each (which yields strings); it doesn't need to return the body all at once: class Dummy def initialize(controller) @controller = controller end def

I’ve been doing some research for this earlier, and my conclusion was: This is very hard , if not impossible, to implement automatically. The main problem is that it’s impossible to handle exceptions correctly without making the whole stac

I know that the University of Oslo started on a rather big Groovy project, but after a few months ported everything over to Ruby (not sure if it runs on JRuby though). As far as I remember, they felt that Groovy was a terrible "clone" of Ru

Yeah, but the whole point is really repeating local variables vs capturing self: # This wouldn't work because it binds the block to Foo, and the @bar # would lookup inside Foo instead of the proper context: Foo.search { bar ==
