Jan 18	comment	Does naming sensitive things discreetly provide protection? Thanks, I was thinking more about web scripting languages which are not compiled so the variables names would be apparent. "It isthe algorithm which will determine how secure your solution is, not what names you use for variables." that sums it up nicely!

Jan 11	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? @martinstoeckli ok I get it now, I thought the remainder of the entire hash after the last $ was only 22 characters.
Jan 11	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? @martinstoeckli but how does `password_verify()` extract the salt from the saved hash value when a random salt was used to generate it?
Jan 11	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? @martinstoeckli thanks but that's not what I was asking. I'm asking how `password_verify()` works since `password_hash()` gives different output for the same input?

Jan 11	accepted	Is there a way to make changes to a virtual machine, test it out, and automatically make same changes to normal machine?
Jan 11	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? How does `password_verify()` work when the salt used is random and not stored anywhere? Does the first 6 characters in the hash value (e.g. $2y$11$) determine the salt that was being used?

Jan 10	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? Well that was quite the conundrum.
Jan 10	comment	In this example why do they hash a randomly generated piece of salt before hashing it with the password? @CodesInChaos I installed the package but am confused because I get a different hash value for the same input. Is this expected? If yes how do I check the password next time the user wants to log in?
