The encryption type is triggered by the salt argument. So if you want Blowfish, you'll need to supply a sixteen-character salt. What exactly do you mean by "this password is the lack of a password"? Edit: is http://search.cpan.org/~zefra

This misses out on lots of stuff. Two weeks ago, I set aside an entire day and read a bunch of Vim tutorials. My cheat sheet filled up 2 8.5"x11" pages. Here are a few gems: gg -> go to the top of the file. G -> go to the bottom. :s

It’s hard to give a definitive explanation for this trend, but among the reasons are a decline in innovation in the aftermath of the tech boom, leading to fewer new businesses... Was this just a decline in tech innovation? I wonder how mu

It also mentions that he had help from 2 folks who contributed GPU time. I can't imagine that fairly small cluster would come close without luck.

I've upgraded about 15 different Dell, HP and IBM laptops in the last 6 months; finding the service manuals is trivial. I don't disagree about the build quality though; the unibody MacBooks are a sight to behold.

Nice job swombat. Have you considered making screencasts of your own for the 'Tour' section of the site? Edit: apparently those guys work for Woobius. Have you considered using screen recording software?

To be fair, you'll never see middle/long-distance athletes wearing flats outside of the later peak/taper window (and this is just to reintroduce your body to featherweight shoes so you don't freak out when you change your shoes morning of).

If that was the point, I'm glad he did it. I'd read both licenses before, but hadn't given their ramifications too much thought. I'm probably not speaking for just myself when I say that I used to believe that 'FOSS' == 'GPL'. The discussio

The site and intro slideshow look amazing. The demo is nice and the FAQ is helpful. I'd sign up, but it's down now :-(

I highly suggest you read the GPL one more time. If you're hosting a web app that rotates images for people, that random library is running on (effectively) your server. You're distributing the end, not the means. The GPL does not restrict
