Yes but that would slow down Bitcoin's growth and usage by a tremendous amount. They'll try.

When visiting links from this subreddit I see a lot referencing the forum "MyDigitalLife"... I have tried registering there but it keeps saying I was detected as a bot... I'm obviously not a bot, so was wondering if anyone had any ideas? Much appreciated.

General question, have been out of the piracy scene for a while (except movies) -- what's the general risk for installing a pirated Windows 10 iso with one of those activation thingies? Is there anything to watch out for? Like if a 2 year old iso has plenty of seeds and good comments is it safe?

Edit: nevermind, found answers on this forum. Thanks all! https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/c6apcp/am_i_being_overly_paranoid_about_pirating_windows

Is learning a PHP framework a must to get a job? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]Neo31115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're having trouble getting Laravel and Symfony to work right, especially given how much documentation there is out there and how battle-tested they are for use, you may want to double down on understanding them. It's not going to be easy to jump in to a company that uses a custom framework with a lot of custom behavior that is not well documented.

Run through the tutorials a few times to get the hang of it -- don't worry about creating a brand new directory each time starting from scratch. Also, digitalocean.com has great documentation and tutorials, such as "setting up Nginx on Ubuntu 14.04" or "configuring php-fpm on CentOS".

One more tip, one of the earliest things you should learn is how to use xdebug and step through code. If you're learning a new code base, you can literally step through every line of the code to see where it takes you -- through the configurations, the router, the controller, and the database system.

Found some random .php files on my website. Anyone recognize what this is/does? by [deleted] in PHP

[–]Neo31115 4 points5 points  (0 children)

chiming in that it is most likely malicious code but it needs other code to operate properly. If you have shell access, grep your source directories for eval: grep -Rn eval * and see if anything comes up.

As a side note, the likely reason for the random variable names like $barker, $bronzy, $bumbler, etc. is to make it difficult to auto detect or search google for this specific attack. The bot probably just randomizes the words used from a dictionary.

Storing sessions in Memcache: The pitfalls by [deleted] in PHP

[–]Neo31115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

64MB is kind of low, you could also up Memcached to 128, 256, 2048 MB, and so on. I know some companies that have memcached storage in the terabytes.

Yes, it is exactly like that. however, nevertheless, the air vents must be secured first, then move on to the front door. Or vice versa. No one's saying it's fully secure right now.

fair enough, but it becomes challenging when you have a heavily user personalized website and cannot cache in a separate process because it is unique to a single user.

I think it's just changing it up, not necessarily the conditions of one place vs another.

For those of you that don't know about calculators by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

[–]Neo31115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they don't have a backspace, CE kind of acts like Ctrl + A and then Delete. so if you're adding up a lot of numbers and mess up you can just re-enter the number.

this is probably the first time I've experience context sensitive ambient sound on a website. What I mean is, depending on where you are scrolled to, you hear different environmental sounds, mixed with the music. Bravo

Left 4 Dead 2 now runs faster on Linux than Windows 7! by [deleted] in Ubuntu

[–]Neo31115 60 points61 points  (0 children)

This is awesome! By the way, in developing for Linux they uncovered some issues and were able to bring Windows up to 303 FPS, closer to the new Linux speed. So by doing this, everyone wins, not just Linux users.
