Bcrypt and PBKDF2 are not custom, they are part of the framework:

... or any other language.

Calling me names won't change anything, my argument still stands.

Why replace Dropbox? I use it with encfs and works just fine. And it's free.

Actually it appeals to anybody who doesn't want to see how his savings lose value every day, or are simply stolen by his own government. It also appeals to anybody who doesn't want to pay ridiculous fees for international wires, if the government allows it at all.

In Argentina you can take photos on public places and publish them, given that you are not obviously targeting one specific individual without his (explicit or implicit) consent. For instance, in tennis matches, the cameramen and tv program can get into trouble if they do things like zooming and making focus on a beautiful girl from the crowd. There are also other specifics, like that the person can't already be famous or a public figure, since those people have voluntarily exposed themselves. Eg: TV actors don't have this right to privacy when they are on public. If you see a famous person in the street, you can take a picture of him/her and publish it.

> In Germany there is the so called "Recht am eigenen Bild" which means you cannot just film random people and share the images or even exploit them for money. This is a law specific to Germany

I don't think that law is unusual, in Argentina we have it too, and sounds like something very basic anyone would want (though creeps don't seem to understand it, and act surprised when they realize such law exist, and start complaining on their lack of freedom and whatnot, lol). I thought it kind of came packaged with the IP laws that the US pushed everywhere.

There are wallets that let you do that. Eg:

"Electrum [...] allows you to recover your wallet from a secret phrase." [1]

2.5% of the population? Is that accurate? Seems too high.

I, as a self-taught programmer, would learn design if I knew how. I just couldn't find any good material on this. I'm wondering if it is because designers are bad teachers or what. I subscribed to one of those courses that popped up here in hacker news. It was terrible. All it did was send me weekly emails with videos about how cool apple products are, or tasks that were way too far away from the actual work. I'm sorry don't remember its name.

Does anyone know of a good book/tutorial/course to learn the very basics? How the hell do I choose a good colour combination? I've read about the colour theory. Now what?
