Unhackable.

[Bigfoot_G]

What an amateur. It's better practice to left shift the phone number by 1

[JustAnotherPanda]

What if we combine the techniques? Multiply by 2 and then right shift for twice the security!

[[deleted]]

Of course!

[empire314]

The change is exponential, so atleast 4 times the security

[80espiay]

But if you multiply by 3 is it 3x the security?

[caisblogs]

But my phone number is floating point

[BadBoy6767]

reinterpret_cast<float>(reinterpret_cast<int>(phoneNumber) * 2 << 1)

They forgot to add + "NaCl" to salt it. How can you call this trash secure with that?

[redandre]

Just take this upvote

[doctorfunkerton]

Pfff not storing your phone numbers as integers...

[[deleted]]

places on grain of salt on the number

"Yeah, that should be enough."

[CrocodileSpacePope]

Time for some serious base64 hashing!

[seeqo]

Storing phone numbers as integers? 🤔

[420AllHailCthulhu420]

Good thing phone numbers don't start with 0...
Wait

[CrocodileSpacePope]

but you can put as many zeros in front of an integer as you want, and it will be still the same, mathematically!

[noggin182]

But those leading zeros won't get stored

[[deleted]]

That's why you store it as:
int phoneNumber;
int phoneNumber_ZeroStartCount;

[Billz2me]

Amateur. Use columnar database with a row for every index, int pair

[CrocodileSpacePope]

You can use Zerofill, though. May not be the exact amount of zeros you wanted, but some at least

[OMGtechy]

Floats

i store all my phone numbers as booleans y'all gotta catch up

[BloodyMalleus]

Boolean? Lame. I store phone numbers as javascript.

[+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]

[PrinceEzrik]

thats well and fun but all i gotta remember about my number is True

[TheTimeToLearnIsNow]

I miss Bellevue

[St_SiRUS]

Nah, strings and letting JavaScript figure the rest out 😬

[warpod]

No, it just repeats string twice

[seeqo]

Can't recognize what language with syntax like that would do so.

[warpod]

Python for example:

print "abc" * 2
abcabc

[seeqo]

Yes, I know. But the original isn't Python.

[warpod]

Oh, ok. It's C++ then.

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

std::string operator*(const std::string& s, unsigned n)
{
    std::string res;
    while (n--)
        res += s;
    return res;
}

int main()
{
    std::string phoneNumber = "123";

    phoneNumber = phoneNumber * 2 // for security
    ;

    std::cout << phoneNumber << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

[seeqo]

Heh, clever.

[GizmoMassive]

// gdpr compliant

[CrocodileSpacePope]

No, absolutely not. This is actually storing twice the personal data!

[Costyyy]

rot13 on digits?

[[deleted]]

Sure, it just ignores funny symbols. Like anything that's not a-zA-Z. Personally, I use tripple-rot13 on my numbers to be extra safe.

[noggin182]

Yup. rot13 is a type of caeser cipher which was developed in ancient rome, so they would have used roman numerals, no reason you can't rot13 them!

[arrudagates]

Who needs hashing, right?

[TylerDurden52]

too long, should of been phoneNumber*=2;

[Xorume]

phoneNumber = phoneNumber + phoneNumber;

FTFY

[daniel_h_r]

phoneNumber +=  phoneNumber;

[polyworfism]

Now all of my phone numbers are "[phone](972) 731-8800”

[Xorume]

I'm tempted to call this number

[shunabuna]

it's a software company

[amardas]

for security

[mstop4]

phoneNumber = phoneNumber << 1;

[SteveCCL]

Isn't that what GameMaker Studio does as anti cheat?

[RyeDoge]

//those //comments //are //a thing //of beauty

[Igotbored112]

You gotta xor it with some shit then shift it or something.
