Hello, I'm Phoshi, amateur programmer and web designer. I'm also infatuated with the AutoHotKey scripting language, and try to answer questions using it whenever possible. (The argument 'but people might not have it installed' simply does not make sense to me. Who wouldn't install autohotkey? Horrible!) Also in love with Python, the first programming language I can write just for the joy of writing it, rather than for the end result. Minor crush on C# - I still write it for the end result, but it does that pretty well.
Feel free to follow me on twitter, but I don't say much.

Do people actually use tooltips? @RobC Many mobile applications I've seen show a tooltip on long-press, which is a fairly viable alternative, I think. |

Should we send both username and password after registration? @Bevan; Absolutely, I agree it's a bad idea for other reasons, but I don't think this entirely technical consideration is one of those. It's an important point, but I don't think this is the place it needed to be made. |

Should we send both username and password after registration? I don't see why this is appropriate, personally. Sending the email is something that happens on registration, and at registration you will have the user's password, because (crucially), it hasn't touched the database yet. Hashing and sending the password out at registration time are not mutually exclusive in any way. I'd still argue that sending the password out to a third, potentially insecure, party is a Bad Thing, but that's for different reasons! |
