Blum Blum Shub

June 10, 2022 - Reading time: 5 minutes

Blum Blum Shub is a PRNG algorithm published in 1986.

Formula


The algorithm is very short and simple. Starting from the seed, the next state can be computed by passing the current state through the following formula.

f(x) = x² mod M

In this formula, M is the product of p and q, two large primes.

The complexity in this algorithm is hidden in the parameters; the seed and the modulus M. In order to have a long cycle length and fulfill its security promises, Blum Blum Shub has a few constraints on its parameters.

CardDAV

June 9, 2022 - Reading time: 2 minutes

This page is currently a braindump of CardDAV related information. If there is a library for this in the language you’re using, you’re probably better off using that.

CardDAV has a lot of functionality, but depending on your purposes you can keep your code simple and get the job done easily. With critical information such as address books, it is usually a good idea to keep your access read only. If you mess up with read only access, you just read incorrectly. But if you mess up when trying to read/delete contacts, you risk losing user data.
