Poorly implemented, huh? I suppose that means you'll be taking home the $150,000 Pwn2Own 2014 prize for breaking it, right? Shit, maybe you can collected Microsoft's $100,000 bounty, too! That is, of course, unless you're talking out of your ass.
So if an advanced persistent threat had silently compromised your credentials using sophisticated techniques, you would have been on the hook for not identifying the intrusion? Sounds great...
In fact, this is yet another symptom. Their crushing loneliness compels them to wife the first woman that gives them a chance. I've seen this pattern repeatedly throughout the course of my career. It makes work related social events even more unbearable, having to endure exposure to so many unhappy marriages and whatnot.
Attackers have been utilizing JavaScript obfuscation for eons, so naturally there are plenty of deobfuscation tools. An updated piece of malware wouldn't even have to drive the browser to circumvent this mitigation, it could simply use a JavaScript engine like V8 or SpiderMonkey to execute the JavaScript that decodes the page, not unlike malware analysts already do.
As someone who has had a great deal of success with a variety of amazing women (too much success, perhaps, but I love my kids) I must say: online dating is a fucking scam. While in a slump, a friend recommended me OKCupid. The idea of using an algorithm to match people based on interest seemed solid. In fact, going in I thought it might even be better than "real life", since I had so many issues finding women whose interests paralleled mine. Oh how wrong I was. Of all the messages I sent, maybe 1/10 at most got responses. Of those, all conversations tapered off into nothingness, and I never met a single girl in person. Eventually my effortful posts turned into one liners; after all, what's the point of writing a novella if it's going to yield nothing? After canvasing essentially every attractive female in the vicinity and getting the same results, I gave up. Perhaps I am ugly, or maybe my messages weren't wordy enough. While I found the women I messaged attractive, most of them certainly weren't super models, and that's fine. What's not fine, however, was the continued sense of rejection I experienced. It was degrading and so far off from what I experienced in real life I was absolutely dumbfounded.
If you're shy and have had little exposure to women, do not use your experiences on dating sites as a basis for the type of women you are capable of getting. I repeat, do not use your experiences on dating sites as a basis for the type of women you are capable of getting. You, as a human being, are much more than can ever possibly represented by some shitty pictures and bullshit text. It's tough, but get off the computer, and work out if you don't already. Do it for yourself, because it will make you feel better. Break out of your shell. That doesn't necessarily mean becoming a bar star, but get out, even if that just means going to a friends house and hanging out for a bit. You never know who you might meet, and when you do meet someone you're interested in, don't be be shy. Pull the fucking trigger. After all, what do you have to lose? What are you risking? Rejection? Who fucking cares? Life is too short to worry about that bullshit. Get out and engage the women that you are attracted to, even those who you think you don't have a chance with. Who knows? Your brazen, but cordial, advances might win her favor, leaving you pleasantly surprised and very much not alone. It's our responsibility to ensure that Idiocracy doesn't become a reality, and right now we're losing the fight.
On a related note, while I've never met a woman from a dating site, I actually met several from MySpace when it was new. They all turned out to be absolutely nuts, but fun was had. In fact, the most supermodel-esque woman I have been with (not that physical appearances are top priority) was met through MySpace. I'm not sure if such results can be replicated now that social media has caught on, but it's still interesting.
You may notice you're responding to an article about Google Code, and that just so happens to be what I'm talking about. But please, don't let that stop you from sharing your stunning OSS project insights that you've accumuluated by... well, spectating. Fun fact: several of the top ten google results you'll find by searching the name of my main project link directly the Google Code download page. To reiterate, you have contributed nothing to this conversation. You are a useless cheerleader.
Perhaps you missed the part where I mentioned that a lot (as in far too many to contact individually) of people link directly to my GC download pages, pages that I do not control the markup for. Will this change kill my projects? No. Does it suck? Yes. Do you have anything to contribute to this conversation? No. Should you sit down and shut the fuck up? Yes.
I'm going to guess you don't maintain software with a sizeable userbase, or you don't care about user experience. A lot of people link directly to my GC download page, and my users expect to find the latest version there. Even if I can shoehorn a link into that page, it's probably not going to be obvious. What I'm trying to say is fuck off loser.
That's a lackluster workaround and I'm undoubtedly going to lose users because a lot of people link directly to my GC download page. Further, I want the convenience of a single unified system. As I said in other comments, GC previously satisfied my requirements, but with the loss of this feature it no longer does.
The malware excuse is utter bullshit and said malware could easily be updated to utilize Google Drive. Also, Softpedia is a terrible source.
I have domain names and web servers that I can and have used in the past, but I don't want to fuck around with that. There's a lot of value in having a single, unified system for bug tracking, source control, file hosting, etc. Google Code scratched that itch, but with the departure of this feature it no longer does.
I do, then I throw the binaries up on Google Code. Except now that feature is gone, which is what this article is about. So what exactly are you suggesting?
I actually moved all my projects from Sourceforge to Google Code a while ago. SF felt antiquated, sluggish, and unstable; features as simple as the download counter broke all the time. If this is really what's to become of GC, I'll probably head to CodePlex since it feels cleaner than SF and has TFS support.
Thousands of people go to my Google Code download page to get the latest versions of my software without having to worry about compiling it. This is shitty.

...and this stupid fucking social media bubble. Can it please pop, already?
If you think Metro is the only difference, it's you. You're the idiot.
Let me talk to some friends. I don't think they knew Slashdot poster hughbar was interested.

Wahhhh the communistic license isn't viral enough.

Pretty much everything voice and/or gesture controlled is annoying. Can we please stop trying to turn reality into a shitty 90's sci-fi movie?
Refer to my post above. Exercise, if you don't already. Get some confidence. Don't give up.

Probably the fault of Windows, or some other Microsoft product.

Maybe I'll give it another try, but I used it for years and had constant problems. Unfortunately I don't have the time to volunteer.

Maybe I'll take this approach and shout down anyone that has issues. Finally, the chance to become a true OSS vanguard.

CodePlex is free. Run along.
It is to users who don't have the tools or skills necessary to grab source and compile it.

What the fuck Google? I have some rather successful projects, and my Google Code page is where users go to find the latest version. Fuck.
