Demonstrates how to decode an .ASPXAUTH cookie as generated by the current version of Microsoft's implementation of .NET. You should be able to drop this into the `Global.asax.cs` file of an ASP.NET project and be able to share cookies with code running on Mono. A few notes: (1) This assumes a machine key section that uses SHA1 validation and AE…
public void FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate(object sender, FormsAuthenticationEventArgs args)
{
var machineKeySection = (MachineKeySection) WebConfigurationManager.GetWebApplicationSection("system.web/machineKey");
var cookie = args.Context.Request.Cookies[".ASPXAUTH"];
if (cookie == null || !Regex.IsMatch(cookie.Value, "^([a-fA-F0-9]{2})+$"))
return;
var cookieBytes = ByteUtility.ToBytes(cookie.Value);
int signatureLength;

Why Semantic Versioning Isn't

Spurred by recent events (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8244700), this is a quick set of jotted-down thoughts about the state of "Semantic" Versioning, and why we should be fighting the good fight against it.

For a long time in the history of software, version numbers indicated the relative progress and change in a given piece of software. A major release (1.x.x) was major, a minor release (x.1.x) was minor, and a patch release was just a small patch. You could evaluate a given piece of software by name + version, and get a feeling for how far away version 2.0.1 was from version 2.8.0.

But Semantic Versioning (henceforth, SemVer), as specified at http://semver.org/, changes this to prioritize a mechanistic understanding of a codebase over a human one. Any "breaking" change to the software must be accompanied with a new major version number. It's alright for robots, but bad for us.

SemVer tries to compress a huge amount of information — the nature of the change, the percentage of users that wil
