Frankly, it really is how I stated it and countless amount of people agree with it. I'm not surprised it gets modded as 'troll' on Facebook, but it doesn't change the fact that C#/.NET/Visual Studio are all very liked tools by almost every developer on the field and that those beat every else IDE there is.
.NET is actually awesome, especially when used with C#. Java is too much bloat and slow and needs to die. But.NET is awesome and targets all PC, XBOX360 and Windows Phone 7. And you can use the best IDE on the planet, Visual Studio, to develop.
This is hardly news, and it seems like geeks are offended by normal people using the internet. In fact, normal people are the ones that obviously use internet more, while the geek keeps eating chips and cola in his parent basement.
Judging by TV series and Slashdot, U.S. doesn't seem to have very good men-to-women ratio on IT work. However, this is completely different in other parts of the world. Especially in Asia where students and women actually really want to work in IT and are good at it.
On top of that, women tend to more productive, even if they play Farmville during work time. Men do the same - they just play some other games, watch porn or talk about sports with their colleagues. On IT field it has been discovered that women's ability to multitask is a significant bonus. Men can only concentrate on one thing at a time. If something else happens, they get distracted. This is why you sometimes see people complaining about instant messages and emails during work - they cannot multitask.
Now that aside, there is a third gender which is basically all the good parts of men combined to good parts of women - transponders, or like they are called over here, ladyboys. They are honest, hard-working, cute and great to chat with. And they look good! I had an one night stand with one ladyboy and forgot around $100 to her home. Next time I saw her she promptly gave it back, even while I didn't have so good memory of it. Honest, hard working people.
Exactly. Both the summary and article are being stupid about the reason for salting in hashed passwords. It's main benefit isn't hiding two same password. It's main purpose is to make brute force much more work, even if the user supplied short password. Even Google isn't stupid enough to pull stuff like that. The salt should consist of general site wide salt, and personal salt calculated from user values that do not change (UID, birth date, some extra field in db).
