MyBB Guest2Account
Monday, December 27th, 2010
{EAV_BLOG_VER:1b6e462b6de60c05} Long time no post! A few days ago, I had a problem where a member registered on our MyBB powered forum and requested that all of her posts made as a guest under her name be pushed into her new, registered account.

The Hash Class
Monday, November 9th, 2009
Update: I plan to remake this using the new features C# 4.0 brings to the table. Hopefully, additions like optional parameters will make the code and class much more compact. 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: [...]

Programming techniques may include features such as information hiding, data abstraction, encapsulation, modularity, polymorphism, and inheritance.

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.

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 [...]

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 [...]
