Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

The repository for the assignment is public and Github does not allow the creation of private forks for public repositories.

The correct way of creating a private frok by duplicating the repo is documented here.

For this assignment the commands are:

1. Create a bare clone of the repository. (This is temporary and will be removed so just do it wherever.)

git clone --bare git@github.com:usi-systems/easytrace.git

Enable SSL in Apache (OSX)

The following will guide you through the process of enabling SSL on a Apache webserver

• The instructions have been verified with OSX El Capitan (10.11.2) running Apache 2.4.16
• The instructions assume you already have a basic Apache configuration enabled on OSX, if this is not the case feel free to consult Gist: "Enable Apache HTTP server (OSX)"

Apache SSL Configuration

Create a directory within /etc/apache2/ using Terminal.app: sudo mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl
Next, generate two host keys:

// Run this from the commandline:
// phantomjs runner.js | ffmpeg -y -c:v png -f image2pipe -r 24 -t 10  -i - -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -movflags +faststart output.mp4

var page = require('webpage').create(),
    address = 'http://s.codepen.io/phanan/fullembedgrid/YPLewm?type=embed&safe=true&_t=1424767252279',
    duration = 3, // duration of the video, in seconds
    framerate = 24, // number of frames per second. 24 is a good value.
    counter = 0,
    width = 500,
    height = 500;

/*
The goal of this is to show you how to abstract the action of tapping a button,
such that it can be triggered from some other code. In this case we trigger one
button's action from tapping another button... but the principle should carry
over if you are triggering it from somewhere else in the code as well, possibly
not related to a user button tap (maybe after a certain amount of time, or when
another state updates elsewhere in the code).

// this package provides the state management utilities we need for this magic to happen
