The meetup was held in IIT-M, a campus so huge that it took me 15 minutes to reach the Aerospace engg dept.

I was lucky to not have missed the lightening talk by a young boy demonstrating BeFF, a penetration testing tool of which I was not aware of.

I initiated with little description about myself ->
I introduced myself..
We discussed about the architecture..and discussed it against OAuth.
I will promote you to ->
I'll encourage you to

Thanks thebigj :)

The Meetup was happening in the Aero Space Engineering department, IIT Madras.

documentation and start going through it. His talk ended with little discussion
on doubts. Nearly one hour was still remaining Shakthi came forward and invited
interested people to confront. That sure rang a bell! I was not sure about

During his talk I quickly skimmed on a list of topics I was aware about and I
decided to speak on [JSON Web

confusions.

I realized it is good to have small and interested audience than having large
and unfocused. This group has nice experienced people in the GNU/Linux domain.

- scripts/build & scripts/test: add set -euo pipefail (and a shebang to
  scripts/test) so a failed build aborts CI instead of link-checking a
  stale _site (review #1)
- scripts/test: move the --ignore-urls list into a documented bash array
  (review #5); note the baseurl<->swap-urls coupling in _config.yml (#6)
- ci.yml: run bundle exec bundler-audit check --update as a real per-PR
  security scan (#2); add least-privilege permissions: contents: read (#3)
- Pin all workflow actions to commit SHAs with version comments (#4)
- Re-add minification via jekyll-minifier 0.2.2 (Jekyll 4-compatible,
  production-only) (#7)
- Drop analytics: remove the leftover GA placeholder; UA died in 2023 (#8)
- Fix 45 image references across 11 posts + about.md that used
  {{site.url}}/assets or hardcoded /assets and omitted baseurl, so they
  404'd on the /Blog project-page URL. Verified via a production
  (minified) build + htmlproofer run with all internal links resolving.

* Modernize build/deploy: Jekyll 4.4, GitHub Actions, GitHub Pages

- Upgrade Jekyll 3.8.5 -> 4.4.1, pin Ruby 3.2.0, refresh gem dependencies
  and add x86_64-linux to the lockfile so CI can install on Linux runners
- Add bundler-audit as a dev dependency; no known CVEs found
- Fix scripts/test: htmlproofer was silently checking zero pages because
  the shell's missing LANG made Ruby default to US-ASCII; also drop the
  https-enforcement noise on old post links and ignore confirmed-dead
  external URLs
- Retire the dead Travis CI / rsync-to-jaysinh.com pipeline (.travis.yml,
  scripts/deploy, CNAME, keypair.pem.enc) since that domain is no longer
  owned; the site now targets https://ultimatecoder.github.io/Blog/ with
  the matching /Blog baseurl
- Add .github/workflows/ci.yml (build + link-check on PRs) and
  pages.yml (build + deploy to GitHub Pages on push to master)

* Ignore two more external links that block GitHub Actions' IPs

pythonexpress.in and hackerearth.com both return 200 from a normal
network but 403 specifically from GitHub-hosted runner IPs (bot/WAF
blocking, not a dead link) - confirmed via the ci.yml failure on PR #99.

* Address PR review: fail-fast, security scan, minifier, image baseurl fix

- scripts/build & scripts/test: add set -euo pipefail (and a shebang to
  scripts/test) so a failed build aborts CI instead of link-checking a
  stale _site (review #1)
- scripts/test: move the --ignore-urls list into a documented bash array
  (review #5); note the baseurl<->swap-urls coupling in _config.yml (#6)
- ci.yml: run bundle exec bundler-audit check --update as a real per-PR
  security scan (#2); add least-privilege permissions: contents: read (#3)
- Pin all workflow actions to commit SHAs with version comments (#4)
- Re-add minification via jekyll-minifier 0.2.2 (Jekyll 4-compatible,
  production-only) (#7)
- Drop analytics: remove the leftover GA placeholder; UA died in 2023 (#8)
