#23What makes this so slow? Is it because it is written in JS?

#24Does anyone feel it's very, very wrong of Github to take down that gist?

#25So there's only one comment that gives the impression that there's some kind of troll going on. Just to let you know: It actually works, nothing fishy just someone posting the direct link to the app that's exposed via their update Api. There's no activation or anything, it will just take you straight into the app.
Is it actually ok to download the app without an invite though?

If you live in The Netherlands it is. You need a license to read it into memory or even modify that memory (by executing it) though ;)

isn't that the same message if the user took it down? I.e. how do you know GitHub took it down themselves? btw, I also feel it's pretty wrong to exploit a workaround like this to obtain the software against the authors' wishes.

#29I don't have a mac, but still downloaded it , and just refreshed gist, its gone . Github staff really active on HN ?
maybe not in the sense that the GitHub owners are constantly refreshing the GitHub home page, but they could certainly have notifications set up for posts that mention GitHub. plus, anything as relevant as this is, is going to reach them pretty quickly by many different routes.

#30Hah, that was easy. Thanks. It indeed works just fine. It looks very much like Sublime text as people have been saying. There's even a command palate. One thing I noticed though straight off, it just doesn't feel as smooth as a native app. Is that just me? EDIT: The gist was just removed. Glad I got it before it went down. EDIT 2: The curl command still seems to be working: curl -L https://www.atom.io/api/updates/dow…
