I wonder if you could construct a hash collision for high pagerank sites in the google (or Bing) index. You would need to know what hash algorithm google uses to store URLs. This is assuming that they hash the URLs for their indexing. Which surely they do. MD5 and SHA1 existed when google was founded, but hash collisions weren't a big concern until later IIRC. You'd want a fast algorithm because you're having to... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

If we (the library) want to provide access to something like the nytimes.com or economist.com websites, what we can do is essentially bulk purchase, at some discount, subscriptions that can be claimed by our users. While this may work for a university campus, it doesn't scale well for a public library for both budgetary and logistical reasons. Source: 6 months ago

I want to create a linux distro based off of void linux, running in my main system right now. I love everything about it and think it is a great project. I would like to make my own version, however, utilising much of the same things. I have searched it up and found a lot of articles from websites such as makeuseof.com which all show ways to make a live CD type thing from a pre existing OS. I would like to make a...

Is it only my connection or does everyone face this issue? Like they ban the most harmless and dumb links one can think of. For instance, if you copy a video link from YT the link is like this "https://youtu.be/....." and it doesn't work! While the youtube.com domain works perfectly fine. Same is the case with other completely harmless websites like bbc.co.uk, makeuseof.com and many more! IDK if this is a storm... Source: over 1 year ago
