This is so cool! I love colors. It is all on Github too.
Git Humor Post #2
That’s http://github.com NOT http://githab.com
Too bad about that CSRF security vulnerability report. It had me going for a moment there.
Again, with inspiration from dhotson of tumblr:
Many of you already know about Gollum, the git-powered wiki system that we use for every GitHub Wiki. While the Wikis have been proven great for those that know git well, we want to involve everybody that may want to contribute to an open source project, whether or not they’re good with git and code.
Because of this, you may have noticed that today we’re pushing out an entire front-end rewrite of GitHub’s Wiki system. While they may not look too different from the Wikis you’re used to, the new Wiki interface has been designed to make adding new features easy.
Protect yourself from the ravages of Firesheep:
It’s extremely common for websites to protect your password by encrypting the initial login, but surprisingly uncommon for websites to encrypt everything else. This leaves the cookie (and the user) vulnerable. HTTP session hijacking (sometimes called “sidejacking”) is when an attacker gets a hold of a user’s cookie, allowing them to do anything the user can do on a particular website. On an open wireless network, cookies are basically shouted through the air, making these attacks extremely easy.
