Marco mentioned their lovely fonts as the impetus for the change: http://www.marco.org/2012/03/08/learning-from-competition Edit: Even without that context, it seems petulant & rude.

Oh, that would probably work well on the individual book level, with the right plumbing. Dealing with the quantity is another problem, but that might just require more plumbing.

I'm not sure git's the best choice for handling multiple gigabytes of data. That estimate's based on their DVD releases. Oddly, I'm not positive that they're compressed. I've seen a proposal for using Usenet (or something like it) for Wik

Isn't security one of their major concerns? Before you encrypt something as compressible as headers, it's a good idea to compress it first. At the least, when brute forcing decryption keys, it makes it more complex to check the output.

Huh. I hadn't known about the MD5 preimage attacks. I'd planned to use salted MD5 to generate nonces, possibly with HMAC. How unsafe is that?

Aw, there's some sanity checking missing. The Linux kernel example report has commits from 1970 & 2037, which really screws up the graphs.

I help run a couple of wikis, and I think another reason they're a target is that the available third-party Akismet plugin doesn't "close the loop" - there's no "mark as spam" option to help fix the oversight.

I would have optimized your last paragraph - "Why don't you hash the given password, and then check for the user, and then their password hash?" and then realized I was in error. The time taken to hash or not is definitely noticeable, but u

I'm wary of what would happen if I had interesting genes - didn't some plant genes, found in the wild, get patented? I'm not sure what my due would be, but I'd rather not get sued, at least.

At first glance, how I'd find the maximum: 1. Reorient the cells from paralellograms to squares, with integer coordinates. 2. Create lookup tables, with dots from the origin to a given (x, y). 3. Any given rectangle: A B C D has
