Oh I see, so the points are stored locally then uploaded to your server? Definitely going to download this and see what I can mess around with then, would love to see if I can inject a ridiculously long route and have it run 24/7 to trick i

Ahhh I see, that makes a lot of sense, thanks for clarifying and I agree, not using my phone for that period of time would be difficult, that's why I keep my laptop on my for use on the bus ( yeah, I'm one of those weird bus laptop people )

Quick question.. What is to stop me and all my friends using this on my bus to farm gift cards? I travel for 3 hours per day, I'm sure between the 6 of us we could be a real pain in the ass.

Personally I prefer the journey which leads me to the final result, sure, I could outsource some of my paid work to you (with you without the wisest) but not only would that be morally wrong of me, it wouldn't be fun. I don't code because

You misunderstand, we use these passwords for client website logins for the admin accounts prior to the client changing them, as per the PayPal account, etc, that is taken care of by the Boss, IE, I don't have a clue what they are. Most lik

Unfortunately, it's for the most part flawed as the correct setup you mention requires the human element to behave itself to maintain balance.

Thanks for the reply, would you be able to supply a decent link or a quick explanation of how you calculate that? I'm more than happy to admit I'm wrong when I am - the scheme is to make sure all client passwords are different, though not i

by shanelja 14y ago
While that may be true, an attacker would not initially know the scheme, but with a list of passwords would instantly notice the To01n so I could argue that that is in fact the weakest part of this procedure, which leaves them with the 7

No, each website has a unique username for the admin system, thought these are normally just the company name.

by shanelja 14y ago
I suppose so, yes, but on the other hand, wouldn't it mean that every time an employee left, wouldn't you have to go through every single password (currently 436) and change them? In any case, once we sign off on a project, the client norma

by shanelja 14y ago
We simply don't need to - we use a procedural password which any of our employees can easily emulate but which still provides enough entropy. It goes something like this (of course, this is slightly different): (First 2 letters of domain n

I couldn't agree more, I'm not a wealthy person and while $70 might be chump change to some users, to me that would represent a large amount of money - I couldn't justify to myself to spend it, I would love to be able to pay like $25 or $30

Here's what I'd love someone to organize: A Kickstarter campaign to raise enough money to pay The Government to make Everything Free. If Everything becomes free, that solves one of the biggest issues many people have with The Government, es

Oh, sorry, I just got the link from a friend and thought it was a pretty cool title.

For me, it would be having released at least one function which provided some use or was an example of something people struggle with, E.G. Best practices in your language. Personally, I have never opened a Github account, but if I had to

Oh, sorry, I should have explained, I already refused an offer this year from a university when I took this job due to my financial situation being pretty dire and getting both of the offers at the same time, I wouldn't be planning on start

Thanks for the reply, this is probably the kind of contact I was looking for when I posted this, the question is, without a degree (and to be perfectly honest, no real interest in open source) what do I do to make myself stand out, to say

As I stated on another comment, one of the main barriers to entry for me is the money to pay tuition while I am studying, with no guaranteed return, the question then is where to go from here, I don't want to let myself stagnate academicall

You mean you think that I would get a lot more out of a formal qualification if I left my comfort zone, focusing more on the theoretical than the practical? My programming skills are pretty solid, I'm happy to sit down and write code for ho

In terms of value, I intend to improve my knowledge across every area of my degree units an order of magnitude and also to broaden my horizons, I would love to learn more about the hardware side too, being an all software person, it can som

The money is one of the main factors why I'm worried about attending university, in the short term I will go from a recently developed comfortable life style (I was homeless a year ago) to struggling again and after working this hard I am r

This. The last line epitomizes how I feel, the degree provides a certain level of credibility to my career, it is a form of validation in a way.

That was what I was originally thinking, in full disclosure, I currently make around $35,000, which for a 19 year old is a fantastic wage, at least, compared to what I have made in the past. I have been talking to a close friend of mine who

That is just... My god... New levels of cool! There aren't even words, I hope your wife appreciates all the hard work you've obviously put in to this, I wish my girlfriend would make things this cool for me.

I apologize for the vague post but I saw an article earlier on about how some supposedly fantastic (wiggles?) widget company was unable to pay their hosting costs and was having to scale back and shut down, hopefully someone seeing this pos
