“Hack” the beta!

YA-programming Q&A site is springing up (perhaps I shouldn’t complain; anything that helps dilute the online influence of that PoS Experts Exchange can only be a good thing) and it is members-only beta. Unless you circumvent the security-through-obscurity via this weak bit of trickery:

P.S. If you’d like to try Stack Overflow yourself, simply go to http://beta.stackoverflow.com and type the following into your address bar: javascript:alert(document.cookie="soba=-9999999");

Then again, perhaps gaining access is just the first skill-testing question on the site….
