It's the difference between open source and closed source. Closed source programs, like osx and windows only release their compiled versions.

I've seen something like this before. http://toppp.com/

If you could live forever on the condition that you did not eat, would you say no?

It entirely depends on how that condition materialized. Would I be hungry forever (but somehow live)? Then no.

If I would never be hungry, then that sounds wonderful.

There is a subreddit for this if you feel like reading more http://www.reddit.com/r/tDCS/

With the warning on the subreddit: Caution: you can be killed by a 9V battery

You can be killed by a 9V battery? How? Not from the charge I hope (not sarcastic).

The internal electrical resistance of your tissues is a lot lower than the resistance provided by your skin. If you puncture your skin with electrodes a 9V battery can generate enough current to stop your heart.

There's a link to the darwinawards site on the subreddit. Apparently it was a Navy service member that stuck the electrodes into his fingers and the current traveled through the bloodstream across his heart.

Sounds like an urban legend, but if you read the back and forth on it, it's rather interesting.

I believe you have to provide a path that would go through the heart. Simply piercing the same finger with both electrodes shouldn't do much to the heart.

I believe he pierced each finger with a different electrode.

It is theoretically possible to do that. Blood is wonderfully conductive with all the electrolytes.

I suppose you could potentially choke on it. Darwin was right you know.

Would they be able to get around this by encrypting it two times? On of the times with the official recommend standard an another time with bcrypt?
