What the hell is Club Penguin?
Habbo hotel for the little, little ones I think?
I guess you were born in the 2000s…
I was born in the late 1980s, can I know what it is?
Edit: Looks like a game. Are we assuming everyone in a technology community cares about video games? I’m a programmer but can’t get into video games at all.
Aren’t you assuming everyone else can’t care about video games because you don’t?
Why does being a programmer matter? You’re not implying that technology groups should care about programming I hope.
I’m explaining why I’m a programmer for some context why I’m interested in technology, not to argue that all programmers hate gaming.
I was replying against the smug “you must’ve been born in the 2000s” comment. I’m arguing that not everyone is into gaming just because this is a technology community, and to maybe drop the attitude because someone isn’t cOoL like them because they were born earlier. 🙄
bcrypt… with how many iterations? seems like an important detail
I don’t think I’d make that information public were I in their shoes. Wouldn’t that be a hint for anyone attempting to crack them?
no, it’s (usually) stored as a part of the hash
obligatory bcrypt is not encryption
Correct but you also dont want an encrypted password. You want a hashed password.
this is true, and the name bcrypt can be misleading to non experts. i don’t blame them for getting this wrong in a pr statement 🤷♀️
Encrypted is also the word to make people feel safer.
So what password hashing mechanism upgrades they implemented?
