I wrote a FB-note for my buddies regarding these tools and the leak. I see a lot of bad advice on HN as well, so I should probably paste how I see it here as well:

1. DO NOT check whether or not your password was compromised via services like leakedin.org. If you've used LinkedIn, it was stolen. They only RELEASED around 6 million passwords, though LinkedIn has 161 million users. Odds are, your password is not found from the publicized list. There's very little reason to assume, that those password-hashes were the only ones out there...

By using such services, you just guarantee that your password-hash ends up in a web-server log to be stolen or outright to a hash-dictionary. Especially since most of us are stupid and recycle passwords from other services, you'll just intentionally leak your weak password to a 3rd party.

(Besides, leakedin.org DOES leak that information to a third party. They use an analytic tool, getclicky.com, which commits your search parameters back home every time you do a page reload/search.)

2. As far as we know, LinkedIn HAS NOT DISCOVERED HOW THE ATTACK WAS MADE NOR BLOCKED THE VULNERABILITY. So even though we've all been clever and changed our passwords before any damages were done, the new one might as well have been leaked already. This is especially bad, if the new password is a recycled password as well. So if you lost your LinkedIn & Gmail -password before and replaced it with your FB-password... Congratulations! Odds are that you lost your FB-password as well.

Also, change your password again once LinkedIn has given a statement of fixing the vulnerability. If they don't... Well, sell your NYSE:LNKD.

3. For every leak we know of, there's dozens of leaks we don't. Assume that your password gets stolen. Don't recycle them. Use a Password Manager (I use 1Password, there are others, cheaper and free ones, though. Don't know how good they are.) and/or a system such as passphrases or http://safeandsavvy.f-secure.com/2010/03/15/how-to-create-an... .

4. People can do pretty evil things with your data and by being able to impersonate you. Your account can be used to scam people (you might not want legal trouble), to blackmail you, to spy on you and your neighbors or even for performing crimes. E.g. Money laundering.

Did you have any experience doing web development with Scala? I am now choosing stack for my new project and considered Scala/Play as an option. There are some problems both with Play2 framework atm(no Wax deployment support, long rebuilding after small changes, work with actions is confusing) and the language of Scala (complexity, version migration, SBT etc.) The situation is promised to get better in future but most need their work done now. If you are choosing bleeding edge, new shiny thing be ready to face additional problems which can slow your development. If you prefer just to get things done you'd review your Python code, find and fix bottlenecks.
Maybe you can combine techs choosing what is appropriate for some work - say Python for web interface with critical parts in Java/Scala.

My 50 year old dad has actually been developing web apps for the last couple of years, is currently learning rails and is in the know about modern technology more than I am at times :) as to your question, take positive feedback from friends and family with a grain of salt, unless you know for a fact that person would be very critical and not afraid to hurt your feelings.
I agree with you in the case of something original, but I'm not entirely sure how this qualifies?

Maybe it's because i am in Europe, where paypal is regulated as a bank and has a ton more due diligence to do, but i use paypal extensively for business and i just don't see those problems. My account was restricted a few times always asking for further documentation after which it was restored (it does take quite a long time, but not more than a bank would). That actually makes them more trustworthy to me, because i know they are actively fighting fraud.

Contrast that with facebook: When i received my facebook credits payments, their support team was quite clueless when i asked them what is their billing address and VAT no (required here in Urop). they even gave me the wrong info that the payments came from the US, which resulted in me being fined for misreport.

Trust facebook? Maybe in 10 years.

So I changed my password through my PC yesterday, went to my Android client and, to my surprise, it is logged on the mobile!

It's been more than 12 hours, and the access token for the mobile client is still connected to my account, despite changing my password.

I would expect all tokens to be revoked on-password-change. Really disappointing.

I'll have to set up an SSL proxy later to dump the traffic from Android, see what is happening. Anyone compiled SSLDump for Android?

Perl can do this as well:

@a = (10, 5, 9, 6, 20, 17, 1);
@slice = @a[0, 1, 3, 6];

Though I've never seen this used for anything other than simple sublists (like @a[0..3]).

I wouldn't ask you close friends for feedback, or at least take their advice with a piece of salt. the best place in the web to get feedback might actually be hacker news, because you get this large pool of people from the industry, which can give you honest feedback, without being afraid to hurt you. the advice in this community should give you a lot of good pointers going forward.
That is on the grid. One would assume in a couple years wind and solar would power the grid. Also, Tesla refers to itself as a technical innovator. Whether they succeed or not commercially, they will undoubtedly advance the date of electric vehicles. Elon Musk is an extraordinary visionary.

I thought the video was (relatively) amazing. It was funny and cool and not overly douchy and/or nerdy like other demo videos.
> Am I misunderstanding?

Aye. There are two points to the salt:

1. Avoid precomputed hash attacks ("rainbow table") where the attacker has a big list of hashes:password, and can just walk the table of (leaked) password hashes to get the cleartext. A global salt is sufficient for that, and where it's stored does not matter (can be a config file or a config table or whatever)

2. Avoid the attacker being able to brute-force the whole collection at once, there each password needs its own salt: the attacker needs a pair of (salt, hash) to be able to brute-force each and every password, it can't just compute a million (salted) hashes and cross-check all the table, it has to do so for each and every password it wants to crack. This requires a unique salt per password/hash, and the salt can just be stored with the hash.

Salts are not secrets, they just exist to make the hashing of a given user's password unique. They are generally returned as part of the hash function's result (alongside the number of rounds, so the result has the shape (cost, salt, hash)), it's understood and expected that the attacker knows them: it does not matter to their purpose.
The inability to change password without a new master password is imho very good point, which renders these kind of systems unusable. I'm not sure how that issue could be fixed without resorting to a (centralized) database.
Amy, Patrick, what's your opinion on working in a fulfilling full-time job while building up revenues, compared with consulting while building up revenues?
> Ya, that's silly.

Not exactly. Having a salt at all mitigates rainbow table attacks, having a unique salt per password also limits brute-force attacks (you can't brute-force the whole table trying out cleartexts with a given salt, you have to brute-force each password individually).

Having a global unique salt is already better than no salt at all.
In Firefox on OS X most of the Select2 inputs don't seem to be in the tab order at all, they get skipped over. If I do have one selected and type "new" I expect to see "new hampshire" (or something else starting with new), but it drops the first character, opens the drop down and I have "ew" in the text field.
This seems incredibly plausible, especially since the pieces are already there (you could probably hack one together in a weekend for $1,000).

The biggest hurdle I foresee is in legislation - how is Joe the Plumber going to feel about a private company flying UAVs over his backyard taking pictures?
In case anyone's interested, I was able to scrape Kickstarter's failed projects. I made it into an infographic here: http://www.appsblogger.com/kickstarter-infographic/.
That was somewhat amusing. Somebody had "dingleberry" as their password :)
New version of RealVNC released
> If you use the same salt for all passwords then I can easily create a rainbow table consisting of "keyword" + salt hashes and doing so I can crack multiple passwords.

That's not a rainbow table, a rainbow table is a list of precomputed hashes (which you'd just do once on a cluster you pay — of buy from a guy who did — and then store/stash)

But you're brute-forcing the whole table (you can look for matches after each computation) instead of having to individually brute-force each password. But you wouldn't keep the forced salted hashes around since there's no need for them once you've tested the leaked hashes.

I'm unconvinced. I used FURL, which saved actual web pages. Then FURL was sold to diigo and they killed all that -- actually wiping out everything I saved and just leaving the URL (like a frikkin neutron bomb acquisition!). I'm not going through that again. Good luck otherwise.
Your approach is exactly how Drupal does it, and it's one of the things I really felt that Drupal got right (and have mimicked in websites I have built since).
I use llama for Android, which is a free app where you can do these things. The drawback it has is that there you do not get to program your scenarios using javascript, you instead need to create them through a GUI on phone.

Can the browser/login be completely removed from the picture, so that you get to manage your own scenarios either online or at home computer and push some compiled file to the phone yourself?

There you go, it is called items now, personally I don't see much difference this is a tiny demo class and the var is private, you better understand before copying and pasting. Anyway, lets not argue about semi columns. The class is correct for multi threaded access and the API is pretty much perfect for my needs.

Repeat after me: PIRACY IS NOT THEFT.
Author: 'There is no reason not to do this for your users.'

Yes there is. if every password auth costs you half a billion bucks, you're in trouble.

Seriously considering running a hashing routine for more than a second is absolutely unscalable and not smart - you're going to spend infinity computing resources making a super hash of doom for a not-very-important bad quality password like "superMonkey69".

Education is still the best answer, when everybody's password is correct horse battery staple, we shall have peace.

How I store my ideas now: Evernote, 'nuff said. However notes are organized in Evernote seems to be the perfect way for me to organize my ideas. I can just create a separate note or notebook to collect all the related ideas in one place, and I can write down my ideas in the most organic form possible.

Also, some critiques on the app's features based on what's written above:

1. People probably don't want to use an app for organizing ideas that actually SHARES those ideas with other people.

2. When I have an idea that's still a little abstract, I think the idea pointing system is kind of useless because obviously I'll have to spend more time thinking about it, but I still have to write it down. I'm just saying, it doesn't always have to be put out in the open for feedback right away.

3. Idea validation is, from my experience, better off done via conversation with the people you trust the most. So either I'm saying that automating that process is less useful, OR you can make the app a bit more social by allowing only a user's most trusted friends to evaluate the idea. That way you don't scare away people from your app because of number 1.

LastPass is an excellent service to manage your passwords. Their Firefox add-on is amazing. If you are not the paranoid-type (i.e. not scared to put your passwords in a 3rd party cloud) then I strongly recommend LastPass. Their browser add-ons are free and their mobile apps a mere 1$.

Correction: 6.5 million hashes, which most definitely comprise more than 6.5 million users once commonly used passwords are accounted for. Of course, we are both making assumptions, but it is not accurate to say it is only 6.5m users (just yet).

> he would use Linux he would spend all day tweaking it

That is a fatigued point. I use Linux and store the few tweak I have to do manually in a install_note file. Next time I want a fresh install I just follow the doc and in 10 mn I have a fully adapted environment. Then I do not tweak anything more at this level. All subsequent tweaks are vimrc and bashrc modifications that are pushed to bitbucket, and I guess I would do those on MacOS anyway.

Being able to fiddle the config do not mean you have to, and the days are gone when Linux was not that stable.

The thing I actually spend a lot of time tweaking for the few days I have a new device or OS version is my phone (Android). On these little big guys I get back the tweaking excitment I got with my first PCs (Oh! Look, you can change the prompt! Look, you can move the start bar to the top!)

I think what is actually interesting with mobile phone is that they are not stabilized, a lot has to be invented for them, and each new OS version or even some apps really add new possibilities.

But for Linux, Windows or Mac, no new exciting thing is in sight, and spending too much time tweaking the config just mean you have time to spare.
Kids are getting their lemonade stands shut-down by cops

Stuff like that is sometimes the case of laws designed to make life harder for the homeless and very poor now getting applied to cute little girls.

You could decriminalise it, but you'd have to let the junkie on the street sell things too. The old days of police knowing which sort of people to apply laws to (based on class, skin colour, accent, etc.), and which sort of people they should not apply laws to, are, thankfully, ending.
I tried using something similar for managing my passwords (basically base64(hmac-sha256(site-mnemonic, masterkey))).

I found it had 2 shortcomings:

- As others mention, if your masterkey gets compromised it's very difficult to reset it (you have to change your password everywhere).

- Many websites have stupid limitations on passwords: must be at most X chars long, must or must not contain this and that character...

So not only do you have to remember the per-service "salt" but you also have to find workarounds for the password limitations and remember them. So I just gave up on that and use KeepassX now.
