Hello software developers,

Please check your code to ensure you're not making one of the following mistakes related to cryptography.

I. General Mistakes

• Writing your own home-grown cryptography primitives (For example: Mifare Classic)
  • Exception: For the sake of learning, but don't deploy it in production.
• Using a fast hash function (e.g. MD5, SHA256) for storing passwords. Use bcrypt instead.
• Not using a cryptographically secure random number generator

Using Apple’s Aerial Screensavers on Ubuntu After coming across the [Aerial] (https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial) screensavers for Mac, and installing them, I decided that I had had enough of the graphics-demos of my Ubuntu Precise system. I hope to provide a simple guide on how to add them to your setup as well.

First, you need to install xscreensaver (for example with aptitude, but your distro should have it):

sudo aptitude install xscreensaver
