You can see he is very excited to tell this.
-
I really like this guy
-
This was by far the best video.....
Normally Computerphile tries to address a wider audience, but I personally would like to see more of these kind of in-depth videos. -
I would love to see a series on micro-architectures, machine code, and assembly
-
The sledge/bomb animation is BRILLIANT!
-
I know this particular video was years ago, but this guy is actually fun to watch. I'm terrible at learning, but he makes sense of a lot of things without dragging on the boring part.

To err is human, but to really foul things up requires the root password.

I'm a cs major, but I don't normally like watching cs related youtube channels. These videos are awesome though, some of them are things I thought I had a decent grasp on and I end up learning something. I also love how happy Dr. Pound seems when he is talking about something, you can tell he really likes what he does.

Absolutely brilliant demonstration. All universities that I know teach C/C++, but they don't teach the essence of software security, which should be pounded into every student's head right from the beginning.

Mike has a certain Dr. Evil vibe in that he clearly enjoys writing "Malicious Code." :)
-
This was brilliant. More like it, please!
-
Nice presentation, thanks! It would be even nicer to have the stack video segment made clickable, given YouTube's tendency to "Suggest" everything but related videos.
-
i love how he explains every topic like its the best in the world... i could use him as my personal coach !
-
The way this man explains things is absolutely DIAMOND.
-
Man! How am I only finding your channel now!? This was great. Thank you for taking the time to put this together.
-
This hits especially hard since I just finished my assembly and computer systems class. Great video!
-
messing with, and forcibly messing with the stack is the source of a few old school console hacks if I recall, particularly on NES games. You write memory by doing very specific things to set certain memory values in an unusual way
-
I have studied exploit dev for a number of years and this is by far one of the best explanations ever! Keep it up!
-
Thank you! I've never seen this explained in its entirety and there are lots nuances that have always inhibited my own educational endeavors. Knowing GDB, assembler, endianness, no-op sleds, etc were all concepts I understood but could never completely tie together. Excellent video.
