@barriecassidy If David Smith had actually spent any time on the ground in Bean, they wouldn't have missed it. Jessie's campaign was huge, she was everywhere. David Smith in contrast is known here as the "invisible man", most haven't heard of him even though he's represented us for 6 years.

Independents barely mentioned are likely to win seats from both major parties. Peter George in Franklin and Jessie price in Bean (both from Labor) are in with a big shot. How did the gallery miss Bean in the ACT?

Lemme get this straight… we take an awful programming language, wrap it with something less awful, but use another awful language to do the conversion from less awful to awful, because this awful language is faster than the less awful language.

@MaxDerakhshani @fireflyspace @NASA What that shows is that Clementine's filters covered only a small portion of the visible spectrum. These filters were selected to pick up the reflection spectra of particular elements, and combining them together in a full colour image produces an exaggerated colour effect.

That feeling you get when you look out the window and realize you’re almost home! T-4 days until we land in the Moon. Blue Ghost will reach her final destination no earlier than 2:34 am CST on March 2. We’ll start the joint livestream with @NASA at 1:20 am CST, approximately 75 minutes before we touch down on the surface. Set your alarms here: youtube.com/live/ChEuA1AUJ…

@MaxDerakhshani @fireflyspace @NASA Because the lunar surface is black. Find a space/science museum with a lunar rock in it, you'll see that the rock is black like bitumen (which is actually not that black, it shines brightly compared to a black piece of plastic). The whole lunar surface is made out of that.

I detected this because I have CI tests for an API client that was testing that that password returned less than 100 results, and they started failing.

@troyhunt Interesting (or maybe not) piece of info for you... your latest import of passwords increased the number of occurrences of "correct horse battery staple" from something less than 100 (it was 5 a few years ago, not sure if it was still that) to 187.

@Matthew__Neaves @archi_tradition Stone bridges are not innately beautiful. They are beautiful because you know there is history in those stones. They have seen centuries of people walking over them, of lives lived. But not in San Antonio. They're fake. There's no beauty in fraud.

@ThePrimeagen Well, if AI is as smart as they say it is, it should figure out that you wanted to exit insert mode by pressing that key.

@TheRealEdDawson Have you not read into the whole Boeing 737 MAX saga? The shocking thing is not the individual issues, like only one sensor, but that time after time the issues should have been caught, but Boeing's drive for profit undermined each one. A real systemic failure.

Although, of course you often need "triple redundancy" in aircraft systems (sensors, indicators, power systems, etc), which may be quite challenging to pull off in an EV aircraft. I guess we'll see which designs survive by making it through certification.

@octavioqueiroz @Rainmaker1973 Ever heard of working out? Or of doing something just because you enjoy it? A small boat or dinghy is more efficient and/or practical than standup paddle boards, kayaks/canoes, swimming, windsurfing, and many more water sports, yet all of those things are popular.

@Rainmaker1973 I don't see any advantage. A small boat or dinghy is much more efficient and practical.

@TheRealEdDawson I'm about to start building games with my son on Arduino. Got a 64x128px oled display, a directional button and some other push buttons. The fun thing is only 2KB of RAM and 32KB of program space to work with. We'll start with Snake.

@ScottsViews89 @MrRexPatrick I'm sure the role of lobbyist will be defined - in particular, by the level of access they have to politicians and senior government officials. In that context, an individual that does have a high level of such access should not be advocating without registering.

The Lobbying (Improving Government Honest and Trust) Bill: * Enhances ‘Register of Lobbyist’ requirements * Requires lobbyists to disclose their activities * Prevents lobbying by those not on the Register * Requires ministers’ diaries be published * Extends the post-employment cooling-off period for minister and senior officials to 3 years. All these measures are good for democracy. 2/2 #CleanUpPolitics #auspol

Bins floating down the road in Malaga at the moment. We've been kicked out of our meeting room for safety reasons, and are sitting on the floor in the hallway of a higher level in the hotel continuing our meeting.

@NelProgrammer @javascripted @hot_girl_spring Properly hashed and salted passwords are of no value to anyone if leaked. They are not useful in any way. You can't determine the password from the hash, so you you've got nothing. You can't log in as the user.

@jroper @javascripted @hot_girl_spring Best response. However, I have a question for you. In big scheme of things, how is a plain text one worse than sending any form of password List to start with, how's the hashed & salted any better? Someone still has a list = a big surface area = enticing & worthwhile target?

@javascripted @hot_girl_spring Publishing your full plain text password list to the internet is worse than just storing plain text passwords in the database. Storing plain text passwords is a disaster waiting to happen, but at least it hasn't happened yet. Publishing them is a disaster that has happened.

@jroper @hot_girl_spring the biggest issue is that they are available to be passed anywhere. they should not exist in storage, at all. when users enter a value, it should be quickly hashed and the original plaintext password never passed anywhere. don’t have a password and you won’t mishandle a password.

@javascripted @hot_girl_spring You've missed the bigger issue. They're not just passing them around in plain text in code. They're passing them TO A WEB BROWSER in plain text, and then checking them. So anyone can just download the full list of usernames and passwords.
