The Hash Class
Monday, November 9th, 2009
I’ve been working on a C# Library to make hashing strings an easy (and fun?) task. I’ll show you the very basic bare-bones usage here:
Hashing mudkipz = new Hashing();
string m5 = mudkipz.md5("So, I herd u liek mudkipz.");
string s1 = mudkipz.sha1("So, I herd u liek mudkipz.");
string s256 = mudkipz.sha256("So, I herd u liek mudkipz.");
string s384 = [...] -

There are tons of great articles for getting your site indexed by Google and other search engines. But what if you, for some reason, just don’t want something to be plastered across peoples search results?

Programming techniques may include features such as information hiding, data abstraction, encapsulation, modularity, polymorphism, and inheritance. It was not commonly used in mainstream software application development until [...]

Magic Quotes: Finally Deprecated
Sunday, August 2nd, 2009
As of PHP 5.3.0 Magic Quotes have been deprecated. Thank gosh. And they will be totally removed in PHP 6.0.0. That’s just one of the many things that have been deprecated in PHP 5.3.0 Register Globals will suffer the same fate as Magic Quotes. PHP Safe Mode was also deprecated. That’s just a few, you should [...]

How to use MD5 and SHA in C#
Thursday, July 16th, 2009
EDIT: To remove the ‘-’ in the hashes, replace your ‘return’ line with this:
Regex.Replace(BitConverter.ToString(hashedBytes), “-”, “”);
Hashing in C# is quite a bit different then languages like PHP. In PHP to hash a string via MD5 you would simply use the md5 function as so:
md5(“string”)
Let’s stop complaining and get right down to it.

First, I just learned that the 3GS is now jailbreakable with publically accessable tools for both Windows and Mac. I don’t have one, but this is great news. The iPhone Dev-Team Blog also has a post regarding the release of their own version of the jailbreak. There’s more to it than this but if you [...] -

iPhone OS 3.0: Worth it
Monday, June 22nd, 2009
For me, shelling out the $10 for the upgrade on my iPod Touch 2G was worth it. There are some things that are really quite nice. Such as being able to seek more intricately through songs, push notification, and other major features.
However there are quite a few smaller things that make OS 3.0 more visually appealing. [...]
