My only guess is a batch job that really really doesn't want data changing out from under it (and the devs were too lazy to batch up the next days changes to be submitted post-job).

$35 lets you buy the movie ahead of time. A bit steep compared with a dvd, but not by much. (plus whatever other bonuses they threw in).
Thank you for making this area of ios dev less painful. :)
Would people flip out if there was a bill proposed to require all guns in the US to have a GPS tracker?
That restriction got people so angry that they did mid-term recalls. Not even just waiting till next election.

Plus mountains.
It's much much faster than opening my email, and waiting for SMTP & Gmail to get its act together.

I found it really interesting to see how a large team can deal with a real haskell project.

And it's in an ugly case.
With less useful hardware (Xeon vs i7, memory quality).
It's going to not have workstation level build quality. For instance, my older mac pro has literally 1 cable run inside the case (power to the gfx card). Everything else is slotted in, and done on board. No self-built system I have is built that well.
I doubt I can get applecare on this system. So when things go wrong, I have 15ish different supplies to go through RMAs with (for better or worse).
Basically this "article" makes zero sense. It's just a link to a bunch of parts. Is it just advertising / affiliate?
Why did you post this?
I know them now, but discoverability is pretty low on those functions.
The block reward, which halves every once in a while, eventually hitting 0 after all are mined
And then the transaction fees. Basically if I want to send a BTC to somebody, I send the coin to them, and also sign over a small extra amount as a transaction fee. A miner who solves a block (ie, a bundle of transactions) can send those fees anywhere they like (their own account).
So in a long-run situation, mining effort will balance out transaction fees to come to some sort of equilibrium.
HAHAHA
My girlfriend is a second year high school teacher. You are technically right that she is required to be on campus for the required 7 or 8 hours. But, there is nowhere near enough time to grade, plan, prepare, work individually with kids (makeup work mostly), etc, in that time. She puts in 12+ hour days. Everyday. Including weekends.
And over the summer, you are right that it is mostly free, except for several weeks you give up to do professional development, AP course training, and any schoolwork to move up the salary schedule a bit.
Her salary schedules are here [1]. With a masters degree, she would top out at $58k/year after 20 years on the job (assuming the masters track). Starting salaries are in the $35k range.
Meanwhile, I am a computer programmer, working a legit 8 hour a day job, making much more than she is now.
What annoys me more than just teacher pay though is the other spending in the school. She was pulled in to teach english this year. When the english department met to work out the plan, they had to blow their whole budget for the year on a single class-set of a paperback. (30ish copies). That's it. No more books, no miscellaneous DVDs / Documentaries purchased. That's it. Well, except for when she just goes and pays for it. Which she did last year to the tune of $350ish.

1. DB backup is compromised (from an offsite backup storage, think S3).
2. Developer laptop lost, with a copy of the database locally. (source code may be available, but the site-specific key probably wouldn't be. As that's a config var on the server).
3. SQLi that dumps hashes to the page.
I'm a big fan of making the job harder for attackers. There are lots of attack vectors where a 'pepper' value would be useless. But not all of them. And it's nearly free to implement. Might as well.
This also boosts the cost of making dedicated cracking hardware (ASIC or FPGA type hardware)
I'm having a hard time finding actual memory usage of a single password verification though.
After a bit more reading just now, it looks like you can also adjust the memory-work-factor of scrypt as well, which doesn't appear to be available for bcrypt (very unsure on this one though, please dont' take my word on it).
Does anybody out there have a good side-by-side comparison of practicalities like "memory usage", "flexibility", "can it be parallelized on CPU/GPU/FPGA/ASIC" and so on across all the popular hashing setups?
So if most surgery, and near all outpatient procedures are not-pressing and possible to shop around for, why can't I know how much it costs ahead of time?
At least that's what it appeared to be doing when I set it up....
The unary operators `def -@` gets called when you do something like: `-[1,2,3]`.
So in the example code at the bottom, it's doing `bar =+ [x | x <- [1..3]]` that's better parsed as `bar = +[x | x <- [1..3]]` (note the spacing difference).
Hacking unary operators has a long history in silliness in ruby. See also: https://github.com/jicksta/superators
I've heard it referred to as a pepper (to go along with salt) and is in the application code.
bcrypt(password, salt, pepper) => hash. So even if they grab the db with the salt, the effective password to crack turns into 'password3jkl453jklgfuja9oph4mn" instead of just 'password'. Impossible.
And if they do get your site's code, you're back to a strong hashing algo and a salt.
