You can see he is very excited to tell this.

This was by far the best
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.

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.

This was brilliant. More like it, please!

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.

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

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.

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

Mike has a certain Dr. Evil vibe in that he clearly enjoys writing "Malicious Code." :)

i love how he explains every topic like its the best in the world... i could use him as my personal coach !

Everyone else:
*makes a 20 char buffer*
Mike: "We allocate a buffer that's 500 characters long"

This hits especially hard since I just finished my assembly and computer systems class. Great video!

Just a slight error for future viewers, at the 7:10 minute mark, he points from "a" to the start of "buffer". What he meant was that we are at "ebp" to the start of the buffer is what sub $0x1f4, %esp does :)

The way this man explains things is absolutely DIAMOND.

Dr Mike Pound, i do not know if you know this but you are saving a lot of network security students with your videos on these subjects. They are incredibly informative and makes a whole subject comprehensible in the matter of minutes. A Great thank you.

It would have been pleasure to sit in his classes. We need more professors like this.
