I wholeheartedly agree. There's nothing worse than coming across documentation that was clearly cut-n-pasted from another function but never revised to reflect the actual function someone is documenting, or comments that are so old and out-of-date that no one remembers if they are relevant/true anymore. Writing documentation for new code is easy, it's the upkeep by other developers that completely renders it useless. Documenting a public interface so that Doxygen can generate some good output is worth-while, or a complex mathematical expression that has a lot of constants in it, but that's where I stop.

God could not help out Tebow this afternoon, had bigger things on his plate.

I haven't RTFA yet, but if it's not a patent solely on software I don't think most folks here will have too much of a problem with it.

Just like there weren't any IPv4-only services in the beginning? What kind of an argument is that?

It can...that's the only way I use it. Check the options for your client.

Would ElGamal also be immune since it's based on Discrete Logarithms?

An even bigger industry that this applies to is the food industry. Coca-Cola can't patent coke, only make it a Trade Secret. Same goes for Bush's Baked Beans!

I thought most of the time just a hash of the password was transmitted, which would not allow this as the hash changes in multiples places when you change a specific location of the original password...

A better analogy would be VNC over wifi as X Windows transmits a lot more than just a raster image of what is currently visible.

I use the same setup here at my work in conjunction with FoxyProxy to conditionally load internal sites without using the SSH tunnel. Very handy stuff!

Of course...there's no question that he COULD have done it for 24. I could reply to your post saying that he might have done it for 34 hours, but it's still not worth posting.
