Yeah Lemmy used to have a core of tech Intel and that has slipped hard in the last 6 months.
Be what it do I guess. Dummies gonna dumb.
We are in this sea of like a million people who want to be cybersecurity professionals…
…and as a cybersecurity professional it’s adorable when I see vehement dissent.
Like y’all, I’ve been doing this. And if you want a recommendation, pipe down lol.
A lot of lemmy is very anti-Ai. As an artist I’m very anti-Ai. As a veteran developer I’m very pro AI (with important caveats). I see it’s value; I see it’s threat.
I know I’m not in good company when I talk about its value on Lemmy.
I mean fair.
I guess the caveat here should be fucking learn regex first, lmao.
Don’t use it works not necessary. Google is probably still better if you’re looking for regex for an email or something like that
And also don’t just rely on its answer for prod.
Yo ill be 100 with you.
Regex is where something like an LLM excells.
Don’t rely on an llm for coding, but… This is exactly where it should be in your toolbox.
My folks are in their 70s and not much different.
But once I realized my dad thought that Google Chrome was his operating system I realized that this would be easy.
Im not saying Zuck is good or a savior of choice, but now would be a good time for facebook investors to pressure him to eat that difference.
Not that he should, but hes been all in on Open Source* lately
*Massive stipulations apply.
This is amazing because I literally talked my father through getting a SHA-256 verified ISO of Linux mint onto a USB drive, and got him to flash his infected machine and walk him through the installation process with nothing but audio.
If you understand how difficult the first part can be considering the second part, you’ll understand why I’m proud of the third part.
Yes it is still wildly overvalued.
Anyone buying ‘the dip’ in any stock right now is delusional. This ain’t a dip it’s a downward spiral.
Oh, they know you’re not a robot. They’re just having trouble tracking you.
Brb making this bot:
Lmao where the hell did you get that take away?
Do you, man.
🤷 my team has fun. Sucks to suck I guess.
You need people who can read and debug machine code and dig through hex and binary in cybersecurity.
I use ghidra and IDA pro literally every week. And if you don’t know how to use hexdump, you shouldnt be using those tools in the job.
Binary exploitation is common.
So no, but you literally should be able to read machine code, and parse hex/binary in my field.
100%.
lol wat 😂
Not familiar. Can’t agree or disagree.
But maybe look into tool assisted gameplay? Because the command line is literally the optimal way to play any game. Ethics be damned. Not saying I support that but like… What is your point here?
Lol if you’re in graphic design you’re beyond cooked. Good luck out there.
Okay good luck debugging difficult to describe edge cases.
I’m not gonna continue to argue with you. Suffice to say, I wouldn’t hire you.
Cheers.
I disagree entirely.
Abstraction away from what is happening never adds value in the long run.
Full stop.
Vibe coders be damned.
It’s absolutely fine to prefer a GUI. At a professional level it is not fine to not understand what is happening beneath the hood.
Full stop.
If you don’t know how to use TCP dump, I don’t want you using wireshark on my dime.
Literally had a former co-worker who has taught computer science classes at universities, ran his own PC repair business, and avoids the command line like the plague. Says it feels ancient.
If you’re under 30 and read this and have been on the fence about getting good with computers… Just setup a Linux VM and play around with the terminal. You’ll be leagues beyond so many active professionals it’s scary.
Lol yep. Also here from the reason for which you only care about a lot if you have done some kind of web develooment.
Edit: Jesus I just reread that. I literally just ripped the bong. Was a dumb sentence. I’ll leave it.
