@RyanSoccerAA I can't take it anymore. The worst part is networks like Fox who platform these idiots and their uninformed opinions.

I try not to get political. But LA is where I live, and I am here to tell you: There is 0.0 percent chance these results are legit. Nithya Raman has no base. No one knew who she was until Spencer Pratt torched her on debate stage. She gave a concession speech on Tuesday. I

@JohnKrysinsky I also love that football players are assumed to be our best "athletes." (Whatever that term means.) It's an easy claim to make when nobody else plays your sport.

@JackMac The idea that our best "athletes" (however defined) are simply choosing a different sport to the detriment of US soccer is absurd. Anyone who has played or coached in our soccer hierarchy knows that it's a much more nuanced problem.

Great question. When you store passwords, you don't store them directly (that would be unsafe). Instead, you "hash" them. It is hashing that turns "password123" into something like "a7f8k2m9x4". The problem is, if two people use "password123", they both get the same hash result. Hackers know this and have giant cheat sheets that say "if you see a7f8k2m9x4, the original password was password123." The solution to this is "salting". Before hashing the password, you add some random junk to it. So for User A, you might add "xyz" to their password, making it "password123xyz" before hashing. For User B with the same password, you add different junk like "abc", making it "password123abc". Now when hashed, they look completely different. Benefits of salting is that even if a million people use "password123", every single one looks different in your database. Hackers have to work much harder to crack each password individually

What is salting and why do we salt passwords?

I think we, as Laravel/PHP community, have a problem. I don't see many new/young devs starting with Laravel. I also heard the same topic expressed by Taylor, Jeffrey, Nuno in podcasts. Question: what can I/we do to promote PHP/Laravel to outsiders? Let's brainstorm.

Need a document scan from a repository in NYC or Boston? I know it’s hard to pull the trigger at $65 a pop. But you should know that your hard earned cash is landing in the pocket of some very talented and deserving grad students. Also, 10% off with coupon code SOCIAL10 might ease the pain a bit. #research #history #humanities #dh #genealogy #journalism #archives
