@diagprov In practice I see more problems due to the confusion between cryptographic hashes (unkeyed, fast, collision resistant), MACs (keyed, fast) and password hashes (slow, salted).
@MarkBuffalo I used to say, on OKcupid, I message hot girls and they generally ignore my message. On LinkedIn, hot girls message me and I generally ignore them.
@l1thal i've been listening to a lot of gramatik and parov stelar lately, but for more chill there's a lot of desert dwellers that's good, for more ambient try aes dana
@HerringboneCat Seriously, I'm not. It's honestly slightly offensive that you would take my character as such but I guess you guys don't know me in real life at all even slightly whatsoever.
@MickLH That's fine, none of us knows you like that and you're in an onilne chat room. If you use "gay" as a synonym for "bad" or "something I don't like," then you're gay bashing. It's not politically correct nor appropriate, just pointing it out before you even further offend people.
by the way, @MarkBuffalo the NSA supervisor that you and I work for said you can't take Friday off, he needs you for some surveillance ops... not sure what he's referring to
It's Excision and The Frim collab, it's the thing he played at last Shambhala with the vocal on loop going "EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE ..." and the really rough bass being played as a drum
People say all dubstep sounds the same, but they are objectively wrong. It is highly modulated and permeates deeper into frequency space on both sides than any given acoustic instrument with effects.
@l1thal This style is so... I love the fuck out of the drop but it's usually not worth it to get there
I could give you a pile of songs like this where if you cut out only the drops you could have a seizure from the awesome, but as is they are lumps of shit on average
No. Most definitely not. After the first two seconds I started using your algorithm. That track doesn't fit into any of the categories I have labeled as music
On that note, I will share one more song for now, you gotta listen to the whole thing though! Don't hate on the intro, it was actually really hilarious in context.
@HerringboneCat Get some C++11 and smart pointers and you're set :)
But really the question should always be "do I need to use C", possibly followed by "why is it so hard to interface between programming languages... no Microsoft, BAD COM!"
@diagprov Yeah, often C is used for purposes of tradition. Then again, so is Python, as it's the new tradition..but sometimes a scripting language like python isn't suited for doing what it's asked to do.
@RoryAlsop I think their sound designers and the producers featured in this mix overlap :P
I just realized, most people aren't using their production studio machine to listen. Most of the music I've shared sucks without a good quality subwoofer or studio can headphones
@HerringboneCat There are two additional problems though. To interface with C++ at a binary (i.e. precompiled) level you need to name mangle the same way. Since there's no standard... good luck. You can interface with Java, Python, Ruby etc through a C interface but it isn't seamless - you're going from "safe" to "unsafe".
@diagprov i actually for the most part gave up programming and leaned towards systems and security early in my career. I do a lot of DevOps script-based coding, but basically in the last decade, absolutely nothing that needs to be compiled. So, meh, I'll let the devs fight that one out ;)
@HerringboneCat Yep. There's a nice thought process and it goes like this: object orientated is great! I need reusable code! DLLs are great! I'll export my class from a DLL...
@HerringboneCat Things are easier on Linux luckily :) For a start everyone mostly uses the same compiler and everything is exported from a .so by default, so stuff just works.
@Simon Dubstep is so mainstream now though, how can it make you cool?
@diagprov As someone who spent his adolescence trying to fix makefiles and get .so's to compile on varying Linux systems, I can say, everything does not in fact just work. ;)
@diagprov but it has gotten better over the years..I mean, in those days, you might have to make a.out and ELF binaries.
@RoryAlsop but that's not my intended audience, and where it was migrated did in fact have another question that already addressed it so it was a duplicate, but in the context of where I asked it at (Meta Sec.SE) it wasn't a duplicate... I had no clue it would be on the main Meta or else I wouldn't have even bothered...
@DavidFreitag probability density functions. These can be integrated over their support to an integral that must equal one (since if you sum up every case, you must get 1). Further, the integral $_{lower bound}^x f(x)$ gives you the cumulative distribution function.
@l1thal It's fast paced, so I wouldn't recommend it, but they offer it ever few months, so if you put it on your coursera watch list, it'll come up on offer again soon.
@l1thal Also, the Handbook of Applied Cryptography. You can find the PDFs online for free. It's an oldie, so it doesn't cover the advances of the last 20 years or so, but as a fundamental primer, its fantastic.
@l1thal k, I'm usually here for some time (except for when I don't want to have that 100+ unread messages tab), but don't expect responses the next few days, I won't have internet then (german rural area)
