Maybe they all have Alexa in listen-only mode.

Introducing `shortcut`, a command line utility published on NPM.

Shortcut makes it easy to remember commonly-used commands. You can add a shortcut with `shortcut add $name $command`. For example `shortcut add hello echo Hello!` `shortcut hello`.

Learn more at https://github.com/rchrd2/shortcut, or install it with `npm install -g shortcut-cli`.

This + Twitch Plays Pokemon was what I had in mind when I made this :)


The wikipedia entry appears to be spectacularly short of information on the sheer level of griefing on Twitch plays Pokemon. Just hope that 4chan doesn't find your plant.


Unless his system has vulnerabilities that lead to his personal network or other information, the worst they can do is dry his plant to death, which is obviously an expected outcome. I don't think they are that concerned


It's more likely to get drowned, but I still feel sorry for the poor plant.


MediaGoblin is available on Sandstorm (eg one click install): https://apps.sandstorm.io/app/70awyqss6jq2gkz7dwzsnvumzr0725...

The "try a demo right now" link on the MediaGoblin homepage is just a link to Sandstorm.


The summit will be live streamed. Check the website on the day of the summit for the stream.


You're totally right. The site has been updated to remove that effect.


After you acquire a certificate, it's pretty tricky getting the configuration correct. I don't know about Apache, but in Nginx there are a lot of settings to set so that you deliver that fastest https experience. There's a video about it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHxD-G0YjiU. I'm dealing with this issue right now, where I have https setup, but it isn't running optimally.
