Since MD5 is not recommended which other can be used.

Try SHA1, it is better then MD5.
If you read the MySQL documentation it says that SHA1 is not much(any) better than MD5 for security
AES is the new defacto standard. it is in both PHP and mysql by default, i find the mysql method a LOT easier to use. its the same enc type that the US govt uses, there are only 2 HYPOTHETICAL breaks to it in existence. in php it is part of the mcrypt library, and it goes as rhijndahl or something like that, after the 2 people who created it, and make sure to use the 128bit version, as that is the AES version.
in mysql its just: -
INSERT INTO table
-
(field)
-
VALUES
-
(AES_ENCRYPT('value', 'secret_key'));
-
and to retrieve it (warning, you MUST have the same key you stored it with): -
SELECT
-
AES_DECRYPT('field', 'secret_key')
-
FROM table
-
simple as that.

Hi, I really need some help here. After upgrading to g++ 3.4 I have run

Most severe is the problem illustrated by the code below. It's based on

Hi,
Here is a much simpler version of my time scheduling program. As you can see
in the GV (Global Variable class) I have 2 arrays gaSumWorkDays (already
initialized with the values) and gaSeconds. All I want to do when I run my
CVerifyMissingTime class is to verify whether the sum of the 2 colums of
gaSeconds in gaSumWorkDays is > 0.
I hope that this is more intuitive than the first version.

Is there any advantage to a language having a nice mathematically
compact grammar like LISP does? (or at least used to?)
Many have admired the mathematically simple grammar of LISP
in which much of the language is built up from conses IIRC.
Python's grammar seems complicated by comparison.
Is this anything to worry about?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
