I spent the last year of my bachelors mining, earned something like £6 worth of Bitcoins and decided I would never spend them and donated to archive.org.
Shortly after the price skyrocketed... safe to say the biggest donation I've made to date. Oh well, can only hope it is helping them out!
Bonus points for using the glider logo, will definitely be checking this out in more depth when I get a chance!
VLC has support for streaming video content and receiving it; I presumed that was how they were running it. Semi accurate sounds about right!
I find it amazing that browsers do not block Flash from running by default. I've posted the Chrome help page[1] that shows how to block and selectively unblock plugins to my Facebook/Twitter, as I really don't want to return home for the holidays to have lots of repair requests.

Wow, what is up with those share buttons at the end of each post? Just in case nobody else is seeing this, they start off cramped together and when moused over they break apart in a very fluid animation.
Yes it looks nice, but it moves the button from under the cursor! And then just as bad, the cursor doesn't change to a hand to show it's an interact-able object.
Is this just me? Am I alone in seeing this or thinking that this is bad UX?
I would also throw in he gave a nice TED talk. Available at http://www.ted.com/talks/burt_rutan_sees_the_future_of_space...
Just thought I'd share the CoffeeScript + jQuery article in Septembers issue of Linux Journal:

The article can be found here through Google News[1].
