Episode 3 | The Code Room

Sorry for editing the post, but rouge/rogue is one of my pet peeves.

Hmm, red hackers?
For anyone who doesn't know, rouge is french for red.

The way English speaking people pronounce GENRE annoys me Perplexed

WOOH! WOOH!

Hoping there's more shootouts and car chases in episode 2.

Channel 9 :)

Seeing how this is posted on the front page...I'm taking my coments from the coffee house post and put it here.

Good to see the code room hasn't been cancelled like I thought it had last week.

Dude Joe Stagner's in this episode.....he's one of the best security guys I know. Check out his digital black belt series from last year.

From the episode....
"3 million dollars" in a black duffel bag...and that's the level of excitement?!?!? Developers sure are bad actors....but we already knew that.

From the episode.....
Casino manager...."I'm concerned:.....wait you just lost 3 million dollars and your just "concerned"?!?! wow.....poor acting strikes again.

Best line from the whole episode: "can you toss me the cookie"

Lastly....it's called the code room....in this episode I saw very little actual code....actually was this a java app, or a .NET app? I don't even know what Microsoft technologies were profiled, if any?

I hope this isn't a troubling trend for future episodes.

damn hackers , lol

zeo, that .net app btw

bish0p

ummmm..
how was this a code room? cause they happened to be gathered in a hotel room? and no real description of tools or anything.
this was weak. if i wanted cop drama, i'd turn on the t.v.

Duh, guys. I think the video was about the concepts and the details don't matter.

The funny thing for me was the style of production. It was done like the kind of 'educational' clips you might see on early morning TV, like at 3 AM, LOL. Hilarious and difficult to take seriously unless you know about the reality of what they were trying to convey.

EXACTLY!!! We did this show this way because talking about security is like talking about 'diet and exercise', Wink

nobody wants to hear about it. If we can make it a little more fun then hopefully more people will get the message and want to begin to learn more about writing more secure software.

i think the second one was the best.

the acting in this one was bad but why is there acting anyway? i thought the code room was more reality based. it was better when you put dev's in a room and gave them a task.
