@schroeder: I would suggest to set them as duplicates and redirect to this answer which clearly explains how one should proceed to deobfuscate the code.

I thought it was just off-topic at first, then read it again and realised it's just a paragraph for SEO and a link to a site.

@LucasKauffman Don't remove links from spam, it makes it more difficult to spot the spam and it allows the poster to restore the link which invalidates the accumulated spam flags

oh sorry

Q: Browser Add-On to Block Exit Intent Popups

I keep (against my better judgement) attempting to read articles online, and as soon as I decide not to read an article and reach for the close tab button (or, in one memorable instance, move my mouse to click on an external link in the article), I find that the site on which I was reading the ar...

@gowenfawr This is mainly about risk management, it isn't about crypto itself. So it's far better for Information Security than for Cryptography. I'd vote to close it as off-topic on Crypto. — Gilles 15 hours ago

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is about risk management, not about cryptography. It was on-topic on Information Security. — Gilles 29 secs ago

Q: Diet coke chicken recipe safe when heating the artificial sweetener contained in the diet coke during the boiling process?

I'm on the Atkins induction week, which means my food choices are limited. One of the recipes I found suggested a recipe which involved Diet Coke chicken. Which basically is boiling chicken in diet coke. Since I want to try something new, I was all open for the idea, but then I was wondering if...

@Gilles I wouldn't think it is on topic here

If gownfawr hadn't suggested crypto I would have just closed it

Gilles

@RoryAlsop Why?

Rory Alsop

It isn't risk management, as far as I can tell - it's about identifying when your crypto experience is sufficient - nothing in there is infosec

Gilles

It's about deciding between suppliers, which is risk management, for a security-sensitive component.

Rory Alsop

@Gilles ? How do you read that into it?

Gilles

12:53

From the perspective of Cryptography, the question is unanswerable — implement crypto if you feel like it. From the perspective of Information Security, the question is answerable: when should I roll my own vs use an existing implementation.

Rory Alsop

If unanswerable on crypto then I understand the reject, but I see nothing in the question that is around suppliers

All I see is a question around how to know when your crypto experience is good

Gilles

@RoryAlsop i.e. should I supply my own or not

Rory Alsop

@Gilles Almost a non question if that is the interpretation - the answer is always not (except for Ursine types :-)

Q: Why was “At what point can you you implement crypto algorithms?” migrated to Crypto.SE?

I still have no clue why you consider it off-topic here

Rory Alsop

@Gilles I think we see completely different things in the question. I see nothing in it around risk management, or even implementing crypto (despite the title)

Even your interpretation

> It's about risk management: deciding when you should roll your own crypto implementation vs using someone else's.

doesn't seem to fit what the question asks

I'm guessing you could edit it to make it read what you see in it, and if the OP is happy with that then let's go with it

Gilles

13:07

@RoryAlsop then what do you think it's about?

Rory Alsop

@Gilles As I've pointed out twice, it reads as a question on how to assess your own experience level in crypto

Gilles

@RoryAlsop I really don't see it

Rory Alsop

13:25

And I can't see anything on risk management in it. So we're both obviously coming at it with our own perceptions and seeing what we see.

Q: We still don't have a 404 image

Back when we were discussing site design, @Jin came up with this design question and we do have some answers which could be relevant to our 404 page. I think we need to get something defined, as ours are very bland. Bicycles have this for their 404: Which I think is wonderful. We are using ...
