I think it is good advice. He says to do it twice per month, not everyday. It sounds dumb in those words, but the concept is good. This can be as simple as saying ``lets get coffee'' and you buy the other person the coffee. It is

lastpass is free or at maximum $1 per month. 1pw is pretty expensive though.... Also they run in your browser which mean the client side and crypto code is easily recoverable

It is weird watching two ants fight. Mammals it is pretty easy to understand what they are trying to do, hit eachother or bite eachother or something. But ants? It just kind of looks like they are crawling on eachother. I have no idea how o

I don't see why you don't just get the key once, allow you to verify it, and store it locally. It seems pointless to make all these extra requests to you. There's a reason that gpg does this..... Maria's twitter being ha

When I get someone's GPG key I can call them on the telephone or go to their house and make sure I got the right one. I add it and use it. When you use this, I'm assuming I get that key every time from the server. I can get it and

Where are the security details published? I think that's what we all want to see... On top of this....I think this is cool in theory but bad in practice. The assumption that Root CA's are trustworthy is already hard enough to make

This is a good solution. Have a archive private repo that everything I'm done with goes in. Perfect.

Yeah that does work. It is only frustrating when I have a lot of big projects at the same time. Sometime they can be public, but othertimes they cant. I imagine it is worse for undergrads, where almost all their coursework will be private.

Github, I use you for all my \LaTeX papers, programming assignments, masters projects, whatever else. It is really helpful. But I don't like that I can only have 5 private repos. Making my work public could be an honor-code violation a

exactly. That seems to be what OWASP is trying to do right now...and it doesn't seem to be working because it isn't technical enough.

Obviously OWASP can't be perfect. We may see the same security issues over and over but the details of particular problems will be specific to the code-base. But stuff that is universal should be a lot better. Broken Auth page is so ho

They should get a BugTraq ID or go into OSVDB, however, that isn't always the case. These should be reported, and if they are serious, documented.

CVE database is really really bad. Mitre says their limited funding means they are unable to fit all vulnerabilities into the database. There are MANY MANY MANY vulnerabilities that are not in the CVE database. NVD, CVE, BugTraq, PacketStor

TL;DR - If you want to do crypto then learn crypto. If you want to learn crypto and do crypto then certainly start with this. Then, when doing crypto...practice. Build it and reach out and ask for help and talk to people who know what they
