Re:Deploying at GitHub

Github itself is a Github project, therefore using anything other than the API would be some code duplication. Merging, Pull-Requests, Branches, Issues: all this is already covered when using the normal API.
I'm sure it could be "more efficient" when having code explicitely for this purpose, but then again you have to maintain to different code bases which do the same.

Wrap it in $() to execute. And even if you pipe it into a file, no chmod is required. "sh file" works as it should

Besides that it's a shame that the option to just get the stream running in VLC is such a hassle (with VLC I get much lower CPU usage + the ability to freely move and resize the video and place it somewhere on my second screen, even fullscreen)

Atleast the archlinux.org forum has the geekiest "Captcha"-system I came across so far:

Yeah, "leaked" is quite a statement here. The full source code is on github. Should be clear that someone will post a debug build of that, right?

Just change the current working directory in the script before running the task. No need to move them then.

Re:Ask HN: How do you learn to develop exploits?

I'm currently reading it. It gives a rather basic C introduction (I skipped it) but then it goes into explaining how to inject shell codes, using buffer overflows and getting deep into the assembly of programs. It's definitely great for a start.

The site is not responding, so I can't read the article and there's nothing in the google cache for now.

Too bad the site seems down. Anyone here with a copy of the article?

Does it work for free users yet? Last time I tried it didn't.
I would like to test their service before I pay them.

Awesome work.
Just do me one favour: Add "return false" to the function bound to "space", otherwise the page scrolls when I hit it to pause.

That's not only the case for media files but for everything you try to download via the included download manager. And that sucks pretty much.
Re:Chrome 19 doesn't respect basic auth details embedded in the URL

Wow, BasicAuth is quite unusable these days.
Disallowing BasicAuth in typed-in urls is just one side. The other thing is that I can't use BasicAuth to download files on Android[1] (and that bug is 4 years old)

It's not. It's just a simple Ruby server script. Works just fine on *nix machines.
