Quotes of the week
"Java is found everywhere [...] even in your car" - I assume that's a threat?
— Michael Stum
YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE SOME KIND OF LUNATIC TO USE THIS IN
PRODUCTION CODE RIGHT NOW. It is so alpha that it begins the Greek
alphabet. It is so alpha that Jean-Luc Godard is filming there. It
is so alpha that it's 64-bit RISC from the 1990s. It's so alpha
that it'll try to tell you that you belong to everyone else. It's
so alpha that when you turn it sideways, it looks like an ox. It's
so alpha that the Planck constant wobbles a little bit whenever I
run the unit tests.
— Nick Mathewson

I've missed the release of this new PRNG library libottery from Nick Mathewson, but it's seems to be a competitor for libhashard from Victor Stinner https://bitbucket.org/haypo/hasard/overview

That's hilarious. Everybody is laughing here in the office...
The best part... Posted Aug 23, 2013 15:45 UTC (Fri) by jnahmias (subscriber, #16282) [Link] You missed the best part of the alpha message:If it breaks, you don't get to keep both pieces! I will come over and break the pieces into even smaller pieces, then break something else that you actually liked, then point at them and laugh and laugh and laugh.
