    7:20 Im a web developer. You never store passwords. Not even encrypted. What you store is hashed password. You use an algorithm that basically generates a unique key based on the password that you can re-generate to match against in to a re-entered password. That is a base level thing.
    Even then I would recommend doing something called "Salt and pepper" the password. You mix the password with a global key and a user specific key so that even A) the password doesn't match a hash of another service but B) so that even if you have two users with the same password their stored hash key are not the same.
    Doing less than this means that you are a complete amateur and should not be releasing services to the public.

      @@hartmutholzgraefe The dev (singular) apparently still answer's Dave's calls. The developer is in the Punjab. To say he is a junior developer is to give him way more credit than he deserves. The design of the app is a mess. The database is not normalized. While we haven't seen the direct schema, the API returns unfiltered row content, including 2 or 3 different IDs depending on what the endpoint. These IDs are different keys to different tables, but they don't appear to have any foreign key constraints, nor understand the concept of not duplicating data. Different endpoints returning different data return overlapping data from other endpoints. I suspect the developer doesn't even know how to do a join.

    Flat Earth explanations all seem to work when you look at just one variable.
    The mechanics of a system of Earth, moon, sun, planets, stars, gravity, optics, and so much more, requires hundreds of variables.
    Looking at just one variable isolated from all those mechanics makes it easy to describe that variable in many different ways: the earth might be a globe, flat, or a decahedron, it might be spinning or not, it might be moving or not, etc.
    Looking at one variable at a time makes almost anything possible.
    Where Flat Earth fails is when you try to put all their single-variable explanations into a model where ALL of them work together, it's just impossible.
    They can't even get SOME of them together and are not even close to getting ALL of them together.
    That's why guys like Flat Earth Dave can talk about the perspective elevation of the sun seeming to get closer to the horizon at sunset but never ever try to include the unchanging size of the sun at the same time - he can't even get just TWO variables to work together in this failed explanation.

    As far as I can tell the claim that L. Ron Hubbard and Aleister Crowley had anything to do with NASA stems from their connection with Jack Parsons, but this is silly, as Parsons wasn't a founder of NASA (given he blew himself up 1952, and NASA was founded in 1958, this would have been difficult). Yes, Parsons was involved in the foundation of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, but he left that in 1944, and by the time of his death his main work was making pyrotechnics for the movie industry. My suspicion is that what's happened here is something quite common in conspiracist literature, which is that the tale has grown with the telling. It's likely to have begun with "Jack Parsons, founder of the JPL , owned by NASA, was an occultist (true) and had close connections with L. Ron Hubbard and Aleister Crowley (also true), and somehow morphed over time into "Jack Parsons, a founder of NASA, was an occultist, etc., and finally into "Jack Parsons, Aleister Crowley, and L. Ron Hubbard were among the founders of NASA," which is simply not true at all. Neither Hubbard nor Crowley ever had anything to do with the JPL, and Parsons was only one of several men (it was the 1930s and 1940s, of course they were all men) involved in forming the JPL. Parson was kicked out in 1944 due to his involvement in the occult, illicit drugs, and orgies - all seen as potential security issues in someone working on classified government projects. The JPL only teamed up with Von Braun in 1954, a decade after Parsons' departure and about two years after his death.
    Thus "Jack Parsons, one of the founders of the JPL was an occultist and associated with L. Ron Hubbard (who was involved in the same occult circles at the time) and Aleister Crowley" is just a piece of trivia, nothing more.

      Yeah, I mean even though it says nothing about the validity of his science or his credentials in the field of rocketry, it still seems like a weak defense. Just reading through his Wikipedia page, I have no idea if the allegations against him are true. But it appears that he was not held accountable in part because he claimed to have only been going through the motions of compliance to avoid scrutiny.

      @Karras353 that was a common excuse, which except in extreme cases is pretty hard to verify one way or the other. In the end, we can only speculate.

    The oldest globe is from 1492, and the oldest mention of a globe is from 150 BCE. Flat earth Dave is a grifter. He 100% knows the earth isn’t flat. He lies because it makes him some money. He’s pathetic.

      It's only the oldest extant globe meant for actual cartographic use. There surviving Roman scuptures that depict globes for artistic purposes, held up by Atlas, for example.

    Now, wait a second... when I go on a drug or alcohol-fuel rant and start making up a ton of lies like Flat Earth Dave does, people just look at me strange and start whispering about calling the police. So how is he getting away with it???

    With all the civilian accessible space flight coming in the future these grifters know the gravy train is running out of fuel.
    They need to scam as much money out of the masses as possible in the next few years before they are out of a job.

      That's silly. These "people" are so averse to reality, they'll just claim everyone who goes to space is part of the conspiracy, or... I don't know, the people who return from there are doppelgangers replacing the real person, and the real one was killed. These people will form a flat Mars society, claiming that Earth doesn't exist, once Mars is colonized.

    I watched the Breuer interview. One thing you left out was when he was describing the shuttle as a balloon. Derp Dave shows a quick looped video showing the shuttle "swaying" implying it is the wind doing it. In fact, the shuttle stack was designed to flex forward almost 6 feet after the SSMEs are ignited and then the SRBs would fire once the shuttle returned to vertical after the "twang." Dave's example is a looped video or gif before the SRBs are lit. You can see the steam from the sound suppression system dampening the exhaust plume from the SSMEs.
