What are you talking about? Are you suggesting it's bad that doctors presume knowledge about your health issues after a short visit?

Nothing about that deals with collaboration. fetch/merge/pull/remotes can be pretty confusing without really wrapping your head around it.

To be clear, I never really thought Boise->MO was realistic. Real options still wouldn't benefit more than a small portion of the country, unless we're going to build a high-speed rail network along side the highway system. The

I've been using 15.04 desktop, and I've finally come around to Unity. It's not ideal, once you get used to its mechanics, it's pretty slick. Multiple workspaces + a stable environment with great keyboard-managed tiling w

Pretty sure paying off our debts,educating our kids and fixing the bridges that might collapse at any moment should come before a federally funded train that won't benefit more than 1% of the population.

Besides the knee-jerk reaction, it all depends on what you're defending against. If the NSA went around opening Truecrypt containers for every criminal case, their cover would be blown. So if you're keeping stuff from the local PD

No, it's not ironic at all. It's not asking people to stop using .io. It's asking people using .io to support a fund that supposedly helps the cause of natives of the island. Did you read the link?

I find it really surprising and frustrating how many paranoid/cynical posts are in this thread. * Is this a hint that Tor has been infiltrated?" * "So sad to see the organization become so self-centered" None of these co

Linus says of the Github platform - That's partly because of how the kernel is developed, but part of it was that the GitHub interfaces were actively encouraging bad behavior. Commits done on GitHub had bad commit messages etc, because

Yes, it is! Since DDG does it quick, I'll use MD5 as an example, but don't ever use MD5 as your hash! An attacker already knows a user's plaintext password is "pass123" and no salting has occurred. He can search f

Whether the salt is secret or not doesn't matter. If it's known that I salt passwords in the USERS database with the `uname` field, hashes for "workloginpa$$word" and "kasey_junkpa$$word" will look different, e

I was about to make the same post. If a database is popped and people know John123's password, and his hash is the same as Worklogin456's hash, then they know my password.

Other than it not being tinfoil after the past 2-15 years of evidence that citizens are targeted, it's not unreasonable to assume that the public is "only" 10-20 years behind the NSA when it comes to technology. So unless you

The point of hashing passwords is that the true password is not revealable. The point of salting password hashes is to prevent identical cleartext passwords from being stored as identical hashes in the database. Salts are often stored in th

Could not disagree more. Perhaps one should use their own reasoning and the ability to peer-review in conjunction with 'appeal to experience' rather than shut out discussion.

The question is not irrelevant. It's blindingly obvious that salt+pepper protects against DB-only attacks. Injection that does a DB dump, or vulnerabilities in the DB server that don't exist in the app. So yes, S+P protection won&
