When using http.Get(), is it really necessary to read the full response body just to close it later?

[9:10] 
The docs keep saying `Caller should close resp.Body when done reading from it.` and I keep seeing code like this:
```
io.Copy(ioutil.Discard, resp.Body)
resp.Body.Close()
```

Can NAT traversal be Tor's killer feature?

tl;dr: how about a virtual global flat LAN that maps static IPs to onion addresses?

[We all know the story][1]. Random feature gets unintentionally picked up as the main reason for buying/using a certain product, despite the creator's intention being different or more general. (PC: spreadsheets; Internet: porn; smartphones: messaging.)

The steps below are based on Ryan Bates's approach from Railscast #250 Authentication from Scratch (revised).

You can see the final source code here: repo. I began with a stock rails app using rails new gif_vault

# Get the current branch name (not so useful in itself, but used in

branch-name = "!git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD"
# Push the current branch to the remote "origin", and set it to track

publish = "!git push -u origin $(git branch-name)"
