@TerryChia Remote isn't really an option for me. I have next to no productivity at home. I would have to rent local office space just to work remotely.
My work pattern is random 30 minutes burst of productivity scattered throughout the day so a place where I can do other stuff throughout the day while waiting for that burst is ideal.
@DavidFreitag Yeah, that's why I contribute to existing projects. Having a pull request open with comments that needs to be addressed is enough of a poke for me to continue working on it. :)
@TerryChia Heh, existing projects are no fun. I love the hardware, but recently I have found the software side of my projects is becoming much less fun.
@DavidFreitag It's fun enough for me, plus you learn a lot from people reviewing your patches. Looks good on a resume as well if the project has significance.
@TerryChia So yesterday I interviewed someone, today I have had a mentoring meeting with a girl from an adjacent team...yeah - I'm definitely in HR now
@AviD apparently it's on a skeptics.SE post that I voted to close - on North Korea. But it just amused me that pic turned up. I didn't add the red circle
According to various news articles, such as this, North Korea is threatening to mercilessly attack the USA or it's allies. This is a quote from the article:
"North Korea's supreme military command said in a statement this morning that The White House and Pentagon had been notified that "reckles...
@RoryAlsop I know, but they could elaborate a bit more, not everyone will be happy with it especially since it's on a publicly accessible site they're gonna host a publicly accessible event loc.gov/loc/kluge/news/nasa-program-2014.html
As it reads, I could as well interpret it as "we're gonna install a keylogger on your system and can use it whenever we want just because you visited this page"
Well they just launched a secretive CLIO mission that nobody really knows what it was for ... In Greek mythology, Clio is a muse of history (read that out loud fast)
@AviD doesn't that make it unclear [why someone would go through trouble of writing a question about something you can find all about in half the time]?
ruby isn't delivered as a gem. It's either installed by the system (apt, yum etc), installed from source either manually or via rvm and the like, or installed by a binary installer (eg rubyinstaller on windows)
I use RVM, the Ruby Version Manager to specify a Ruby version and a set of gems for each of my Rails projects.
I have a .rvmrc file to automatically select a Ruby version and gemset whenever I cd into a project directory.
After installing RVM 1.19.0, I get a message
You are using .rvmrc, it...
@AviD well if you have a copy of the code but not the environment, then absent a .ruby-version file there's no way I can think of to determine the version of ruby, (in the same way as with a Java app you can't determine the exact version of the JVM in use unless it's bundled with the app)
I know it's possible to get the Ruby version (e.g. "1.9.3") via the RUBY_VERSION constant. However, I want to know how to go about determining the exact version (e.g.: "1.9.3-p0"). The reason is that there is a bug that was not fixed in earlier versions of Ruby 1.9.3 that is working in later ve...
@TerryChia yeah if you have access to a running instance then sure you can just say show me what's installed but then ruby -v off the command-line does that

Well, sucks it's not working
Problem for me is that SSLScan is using the short names for the suites rather than the full names your tool produces
Hello. I have a question that I am not sure is on-topic, so I wanted to try and ask it here. On the most recent episode of Security Now they had an add for proXPN. They mentioned that installing this program will hide your internet traffic from everyone. I am wondering if this indeed would be everyone. As an example, if you are on a company system, can't your systems administrator see what websites you are visiting?
@Thomas If you're using the company computer, or you're using a computer configured to accept the company's domain controller, then yes, the system administrator can.
Your traffic is only hidden on the wire. It's not hidden if the adversary has access to your computer
Oh - did you see @Xander - Lexie is through to final 10. For the final votes got reset, and she is currently in second place - any votes from folk sin here will help. (Plus, the person in 1st place just did a zip wire ride - pah)
@TerryChia I think we are both in agreement on this one. Most people I know through my day job are No, and most of the music/entertainment industry are a Yes
So for real, is Steve Gibson really not considered a security expert? I enjoy listening to the program once in a while (even though I only understand 10% of what they talk about)
@Thomas I haven't found a lot of good security podcasts. Risky Business is my current favorite. There are a lot of good blogs..To a large degree which ones will appeal to you depend on the specific subject matter you're interested in. For generally news type blogs, ThreatPost and Threat Level, Graham Cluley's bolg, Krebs on Security, and the CERT blogs are the ones I subscribe to.
@Xander You didn't run into my blog then, right? It's about why PHP is very secure, I plan to host an hour podcast every week. Unfortunately, I haven't found enough content for a single minute.

In many places I have heard that people recommend to use the bcrypt algorithm to save password and all. What is the algorithm used in bcrypt?
