Simple bijective function (base(n) encode/decode)
# Simple bijective function
# Basically encodes any integer into a base(n) string,
# where n is ALPHABET.length.
# Based on pseudocode from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/742013/how-to-code-a-url-shortener/742047#742047
ALPHABET =
"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789".split(//)
# make your own alphabet using:
# (('a'..'z').to_a + ('A'..'Z').to_a + (0..9).to_a).shuffle.join

Why Minteye was meant to be cracked

#Why Minteye was meant to be cracked ##inventing CAPTCHAs without skill

Some days ago I read a post by Samuirai about him cracking the minteye CAPTCHA (cracking minteye captcha without skill) with the google speech2text api and two days later it was covered on Hack a day. For me, it was a really straightforward approach to crack such a CAPTCHA and it was something nobody really noticed or pointed out before. It also shows how little the developers have thought about the real usefulness and security behind their idea.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
