Spent the last 3 days in a wedding in Southern Iran. Danced at the beach and enjoyed great friendship & culture.

When learning the programming, seeing a mature program with all the loops and conditions might look confusing. You might wonder how the programmer has coded all of this? Here I'll show you how a programmers might solve a challenge in its most basic / simple form and then add loops and conditions to make it more general / userful.

One problem with clients such as Gossip is the "local data". I have 3 computers and when I follow someone on Nostr on one, I do not have her followed on others (or other Clients). Understandable from the tech point of view but frustrating. At the moment partially solved it by moving my Gossip data dir to Dropbox managed directory but I think we need an standard export / import NIB. #nostr #nib

In the rabbit hole of "choosing the next perfect terminal / editor" fornt; and enjoying it.

How to investigate & unpack an Android Bootimg and Memory Disk; "Replace me" from Buckeye CTF 2023

A sample of an reverse engineering a binary using IDA for a CTF challenge (Actually Baby, MapleCTF 2023)

In the last video of my LPIC series, we are talking about Encryptions. First we will have a look at the concept of Key pair (Public & Private) encryption and its usage in SSH (including passwordless logsin): Then I will cover the ssh tunnels. Seldom seen but super useful in everyday life (including X11 Forwarding): And we will finish by seeing how the `gpg` tool lets us encrypt & sign data:

Based on my understanding, my nostr publishing / following depends on my cilent. 1. My client has the list of people I follow and check / show them. 2. My client is configured to post to a specific relay and if I use another client with a different relay, some of my "follower" might miss me For both there are ways, specially for the 2nd one. But I think there should be NIPs to "fix" this. An standard way to export/import the list of people I follow on my client.

Wrote a super simple Android app for my Rust / Rocket backend yesterday; using Flutter / Dart. Easy and straight forward and functional if you need to create an app quickly.

Um... looks who is writing something in Flutter / Dart :D Yes an actual mobile App for a friend. Super small and simple but its always fun to check something new.

Starting to replace parts of our mongo, rrd & elastic DBs to Clickhouse at the company. I'm writing a connector for our core.

Every time I'm tired of the "normal world", I open my nostr and feel like I'm in a very small planet with the best weirdos!

Checked the https://ctf.viewsource.me/ challenges. Not fun for me. Wont play this week.

Am I the only one who PoWs my notes? :)

Wansted to switch to an alternative terminal emulator for fun. Searched for a week and ended up using WezTerm (https://github.com/wez/wezterm/). Rust based, with enough features (tabs, splits, ...) without too many bells and whistles (GUI config, ...) . Recommended. Alacritty is also a very nice one, specially if you want to truely understand what a terminal emulator is; under the hood.

Do you know about super servers (xinetd, systemd sockets, ...)? In the latest LPIC video, I'm describing them after talking about host security
