About Cyberis

My greatest talent is "not being there" which means that I'm always in the right place at the right time to do what I shouldn't be able to do. I do it and then move on without a trace of my presence. You could call me a shadow hacker. I've been doing this for 39 years as an innovator of some of the great tech you youngins get to play with. Yeah, I earned that.

    My advice: Start your own cybersecurity company. No one will hire you for any IT position. So you need to create your own. A niche that isn't being addressed is cybersecurity offer…

    kali.org's SSL cert shows as invalid due to a subject mismatch. Is that on purpose?

    So, shouldn't plural marriage, intra-family marriage and inter-species marriage be made legal as well?

    That was a completely confusing entry. If I didn't already have a pretty good handle on git, I would be hopelessly confused.

    I agree with gcatalfamo, while infinite scrolling websites seem like, "hey that's cool, I want to be with the in design crowd" they are actually pretty heinous for all the reasons …

    Oops! you misspelled the name. It begins with a 'T', not an 'H' :-)

    This was a great article. I've spent the last year filling in gaps in my own CS background including CL, Scheme, Racket, CISP, HtDP, etc. This is the first time I've seen good soli…
