This kind of thing was one of the reasons Visual Basic macros for Microsoft Office was so successful. You can perform actions in Word, Excel, watch the macros they produce then customise themselves to your needs afterwards in code. It is a simple and powerful concept, so good to see it in curl.

I'm wondering where it is getting the data for the high-resolution buildings?
For example, Big Ben at the Houses of Parliament in London has a detailed model, and so too does nearby Westminster Abbey, and several famous structures nearby.

I really love this analysis of a Bach prelude. It really brings home the complexity that Bach must have deliberately put into the piece.

How about similar things in other languages? Chinese, German maybe?
Re:Netgear Signed TLS Cert Private Key Disclosure

The other way this could be done is if TLS-SRP was more widely supported. This variant of TLS doesn't depend on certificates at all and instead uses mutual knowledge of a password to authenticate the connection in both directions. In the case of a router this would be written on a sticker on the device for initial configuration.

SRP would be extremely interesting for the web configuration interfaces for IoT devices. We want TLS even locally, but trusting vendor suppled certificates is bad. Implementing SRP on IoT devices would solve these problems, but would need much better support of SRP from the browser vendors.

It works well for me in several platforms.
What would improve it is when you zoom, with the mouse wheel or gesture if it would zoom in on the mouse cursor point rather than at the centre of the screen.
Re:Show HN: How I know what my neighbors uploaded on YouTube

I'm pretty impressed by this. It certainly shows a whole bunch of stuff happening near me that I had no idea about.
So, how many videos are typically geotagged on Youtube? Most of them, or just those uploaded from phones and tablets with GPS?

Nice work. How do you determine the destination SSL library?
