    Surprised nobody has mentioned it yet, but some of the best network engineers I know will use a combination of `tcptrace` and `xplot`. It's on the command line of course, but graph…

    This is awesome and I love every bit of it. I just wished there was a login that I could associate my progress with it. Nice work!

    This would have been excellent. It's really shocking that the offenders had the knowledge/power to get into the twitter account but didn't do something like this.

    I actually had the same thought but with movie theatres. I think movie theatres would be highly effective as they could tightly pack many people into a room that they could not hav…

    I know absolutely nothing about music, but I find this to be really interesting! It makes we wonder what whackier ways exist yet. I've always wondered if its possible to use a stan…

    I've been using Anki for a number of years now, and I think it's a fantastic tool for retention. However, I have never had any success with learning concepts that were new or forei…

    I have a raspberry pi in my home network with an SSH server. I then just use Putty or Git Bash and ssh into the pi to do my Linux related work from Windows. I need to work a little…

    I struggle with this too. Perspective is really what helps me. Any amount of money that you make can be high or low relative to who you are surrounding yourself with. Try volunteer…

    What do you mean by "increased autonomy"? Could you give some examples of what that looks like? Thanks

    I loved this! I don't think there is an English word that succinctly describes this. Thanks for sharing

    There is already a ton of good advice on this thread, so I will try to avoid sounding like a broken record. But something that really stood out to me is you not leaving your flat. …

    I was hoping that it would mention _which_ 9 states they are looking to hire in. It gave a few hints, but do we know for certain which 9 they are talking about?

    I'm not choosing a side here, but saying "we have Wireshark" doesn't mean as much as you think it does. If packets are encrypted and sent at arbitrary times, we really have no idea…
