That's not how it works. If the client generated the hash, then the hash would essentially become the password, and all of the benefits of hashing and salting would be lost.

Isaac Asimov wrote about following the eclipse in an airplane in a mystery / sci-fi story, The Backward Look. This was published in Casebook of the Black Widowers in 1980, and maybe in some magazines before then.
The story itself isn't one of Asimov's best; there's a convoluted story-within-the-story that features the eclipse chasing. But that mental image has stuck with me over the years. Never knew what it was based on, until now.

The ethics argument is not about the level of pollution that the cars were emitting: the bigger issue is that they were *lying* about those levels, thus depriving everyone (consumers, regulators, people who breath) of the information needed to make informed choices.
It seems like their even disclosing the fact they know if the Russians and Chinese had access would be considered a state secret. This. A thousand times this.

Many folks have proposed the "government doesn't use the term marriage" thing. It has a few problems.
First of all, it's a bit like Lucy and the football that's she's holding for Charlie Brown to kick. You're effectively saying "sorry gay people - we really don't want you to have marriage, so we're going to take it away from everyone".
But the biggie: it's a tremendous amount of work to solve a non-problem. There are literally thousands thousands of laws, in literally thousands of jurisdictions, that reference marriage. We'd have to change all of these, and somehow convince people to start using a different terminology, to eliminate a confusion that doesn't exist. We already distinguish between the legal status filed at the county courthouse, and the ceremony that may or not be performed at a church.
I protested that this could create a conflict wherein a church could be sued for refusing to allow a gay couple to use the church for a wedding. Not going to happen. In the US, the Westboro Baptist Church still has tax-exempt status. We still have freedom for religious groups as vile as that one, so churches that only refuse gay weddings won't be an issue.
I didn't rub it in the faces of my gay friends Is that really the phrasing you wanted to use?
and the "folder" work around is a kludge doesn't cut it for me.
Labels. It's not a work-around, it's a deliberate design decision, and a good one. You can emulate folders with labels - simply don't attach more than one label to a given email.
As others have noted: citation needed. I can only find other comments making the same claim, no articles.
Also, the ship that shot down 655 was a guided missile cruiser, not a carrier. While there's no requirement that a movie be historically accurate, a cruiser mock-up would be much, much cheaper.
They shouldn't be in traffic in the first place, for starters.
True, but then again, automobiles shouldn't be driving into crosswalks when I've got the light, but that happened to me today - in fact, during the time since I wrote that last comment.
Today's incident wasn't a big deal, because I was watching the driver, and I could see she was looking only at oncoming traffic from her left, while I was on her right, trying to cross in front of her turn. So I waited, and resisted the temptation to slap the side of her car.
But that's also a scenario where the Elio would have been a bit more of a danger. If I'm watching the driver, that protruding wheel is only in my peripheral vision. That's different from a regular car, where the edge of the car is between us and easier to identify.
So it's a risk - the hard part is quantifying how big of a risk it presents.
Well, it's narrower - that'll help in many urban areas, and will make finding parking a bit easier. A two-wheel car is also a little less likely to take out pedestrians with one of those protruding front wheels. But those advantages might be outweighed by other disadvantages - as you've noted, cost and complexity are concerns, and the actual performance of the balancing algorithms and such is still an unknown.
256-bit block ciphers are merely difficult to attack.
That is incorrect. It is impossible to brute-force a cipher like that, and it is extremely unlikely that someone has found a cryptanalytic break for modern ciphers like AES.
Unlike a block cipher, you can prove that a one-time pad is unbreakable, but that proof depends on the assumption that the random bits of the pad are completely unpredictable. Turns out that's a non-trivial problem to solve, and an especially difficult one to test.
Automobile insurance issuers are chartered and regulated at the state level. There have been a number of discussions of a federal-level charter, but I'm not aware of any changes on that front in years.

There's a pretty good discussion here about why hashing occurs on the server:

There are likely eleven murder-suicides every week that get about as much coverage as your drug story.
There are lots of issues in what gets traction and what doesn't in media coverage. But things are much more complicated than "they like drugs".
My pet peeve: web sites that can't handle Gmail's '+' addresses, but don't actually flag it as an error. Instead, they go off into la-la land.
It's usually an indication that someone screwed up the quoting somewhere along the way (and obviously they missed a bit with their testing ,too).

The Wikileaks folks asked everyone to make copies of their files: http://yro.slashdot.org/story/...
I'm not aware of Snowden doing anything similar, nor of any indication that the Wikileaks files contained any of Snowden's material.
The insurance files were different - that was Wikileaks. There wasn't anything available generally like that from Snowden.
Throw enough resources at a[n] encryption problem, it becomes a matter of time until it's cracked.
That is completely wrong, unless you define 'enough time' as 'longer than the age of the universe'.

Bullshit. State laws on the subject vary massively; there's no way to make a blanket statement like that unless you're in confirmation-bias mode.
