Hi bluerail, Thanks for taking time to reply! You are correct about it being hard to follow, I have had that come up a few times now. I hadn't thought about a video but I will investigate that option! Your 2nd and 3rd points also make

Neat! Yours looks very nice. I never realised there were so many implementations of this floating around. It might be a neat idea to inline/reduce the libraries I used to more easily distribute for offline. Although I have to say that

Thank you. I am concerned about changing the algorithm at this point in case anyone has already used it. I don't think there are any serious concerns but will report back if I find any (after taking some more time). Of course if anyone

Looks identical to NullPass, I'll check it out. Thanks for your input :)

Oh cool, I did some quick googling but hadn't come across supergenpass. I will have a better look at their implementation. Thanks!

No, not really. I do like having the length concatenated inside as well, as this provides a unique password for different lengths (useful to quickly visually identify if a password looks 'right'). Is there any reason why HMAC woul

Hi all, this is the first side project I've had that I've been happy enough to share with the world at large. I hope someone finds it useful and would be very eager for some feedback :) (Especially negative!)

I think most of the comments so far are missing the mark. This article is about leaving the working world and building something on your own. It's quite impressive that the author has completed their first project in just 4 months. The arti

Wow. I can see all major building projects in 20-50 years being completed using this technology. Amazing stuff.

It will store a false in the JavaScript version, I'm not familiar with Ruby but I believe you are correct in that case.

I'd be careful with the last Memoize example, if current_date changes then the JavaScript function at least will return the old value still. Memoize only works if your function is one to one (one set of inputs gives the same outputs), and y

The going rate for just wages on a team that size for 6 months would be in the order of 100-200 thousand, plus all the lab equipment, supplies and whatnot. Not to mention most investors would see the idea as some form of play-dough and balk

I think this change in focus from technical ability to semantic information really signals that we are solidly into the information age. We have pretty much worked out how to get stuff done, it's time to start harnessing the results and s
