Ask HN: Looking to Break into Cybersecurity – Where Do I Start?
I have a degree in Computer Science and currently work as a frontend web developer.

I live in a developing country where there’s no shortage of software developers who build systems for both personal and governmental use. However, many of these systems have serious gaps when it comes to security.

What’s really missing here are skilled cybersecurity specialists. From a career perspective, I see this as an opportunity to grow locally and contribute where there’s a real need.

That said, I’m not sure how or where to begin. I’ve done some research, but getting started in cybersecurity doesn’t seem as straightforward as in other fields.

I’d really appreciate any advice or tips on how to get started and move in the right direction!
I won't lie, I just don't interact with paid websites and stick to those that have RSS. But if I had to interact with a website that doesn't have RSS, I would just open it one or two times a week, save the articles I like as PDFs, and then read them later
"Why does JavaScript get some much hate?"

I don't get it either? I've only used it occasionally but it has always struck me as a really impressive example of what can be built on minimal (minimalist?) foundations. Its semantics can understood in 5 minutes.

It reminds me of Scheme in this regard. Writing an interpreter or compiler for it would be easily within reach of an undergraduate student. Contrast with other currently popular (more respected?) languages like Rust, C++, Java, C# or even Python.

I've only recently been expose to Typescript and again, I'm really impressed. I haven't encountered a type system so elegant and orthogonal since first being exposed to ML like languages.
You have a vivid imagination.
The facts do not necessarily support what you claimed.

Occam's razor requires an adequate accounting of the facts, not speculation.

All you have mentioned is speculation, and the facts you have mentioned don't support this narrative, neither when you first mentioned it, nor now.

You misused it, and trying to falsely justify that you didn't is deluding yourself.

Compared with Yomitan, a couple quick differences that come to mind:

- Manabi tracks the words and kanji you've read to show you which are new to you, and which you have as flashcards. You can see this visually on the page, and in a vocab listing

- Review flashcards that appear in whatever you're trying to read. Soon I will also have it auto-review flashcards passively as you read and encounter them naturally

- Add flashcards to Manabi Flashcards or to Anki including AnkiMobile on iOS

- One-tap words to look up instead of mouseover from starting boundary

- Manabi packages reading tools such as RSS, EPUB and soon manga (via Mokuro) with user-editable curated libraries of content. Yomitan is less of a standalone-capable tool

I am working on adding Yomitan dictionaries now (to also make the app multilingual) as well as more integrations such as 2-way sync with Anki, WaniKani, JPDB

I think Jidoujisho has a lot of similarities but it's not an iOS/macOS app

Tcl will store data internally in whatever format it was last used, and only convert if needed. Good coding practice pays attention to this to avoid "shimmering" a value back and forth between different internal representations unnecessesarily.

> It lacks arrays;

It does have associative arrays; and lists when used appropriately can fulfil many roles that would otherwise have been implemented in an array in another language

And tcllib[0], a collection of utilities commonly used with tcl, provides support for a number of different and complex data structions [1], many of which are written in C, not just more tcl scripts.

It's worth noting that Stallman's criticism linked above is more than three decades out of date. As with any programming tool, once you go beyond a superficial understanding of basic syntax, it can serve as a a very expressive and sufficient language.

ChatGPT keeps a memory of facts about your circumstances, gleaned from what you reveal in chats you have with it, so I thought it might be instructive to show the kind of picture it has drawn about my circumstances.

I also found the analysis insightful, in terms of explaining the factors behind the systemic discrimination, and somwhat comforting as I deal with very stressful situations in my life. I thought it might also be interesting for others to get a window into a slice of my experiences.

I think it’s important to humanize these policies and reveal their real-world impact. It’s easy to create a new restriction, rule, or mandate with the stroke of a pen — or support one at the ballot box — precisely because you don’t have to witness the consequences firsthand. That’s why I believe it’s crucial for people to see how a policy affects even just one person, so they can begin to grasp the human cost when that experience is multiplied across the hundreds of thousands of people affected.
Documentation quality has been the determining factor in the evolution of my side projects. I've developed a structured documentation system that has completely transformed my workflow with AI assistants.
Many of the big EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools continue to use tcl for the command line interface. Some users have created quite complex, customizable design flows spanning multiple tools and even development infrastructure (much, much more than just "stitching tools together) using tcl.
Quite. I felt reminded of Git but it did not exist yet in the 1980s.
The biggest challenge with ML models isn't the algorithm but the organization of contextual knowledge. In my experience, hierarchical structuring of documentation significantly improves results, especially when working with LLMs.
Code readability is directly related to the quality of its contextual documentation. I've been experimenting with documentation following MECE principles, which has greatly improved the maintainability of my projects.

Meeting people is 10x harder when you’re an adult. Missing the boat on social groups in my younger years has made it extremely difficult to meet people and establish a social circle.

You can't be certain of anything, I suppose. I'm not really sure what you're getting at here.

I'm doing a similar thing (not could security though), similar thoughts try to surface.

If you're trying to build a business, only a small part of it is about generating code. Sticking with it and developing a good product is where you make the difference. I've built many things in a couple of weeks of coding, but then given up when faced with the hard work of making it a solid business.

My other thought is.. There are always others coding faster than me, writing better web copy, doing sales more successfully, etc. You/we pick AI as a threat because we understand it, but a good sales person is just as much of a threat to your idea.

We all have technical/skills advantages and disadvantages. In the successful startups I worked in these were not that important in the end. It was just about keeping going, every day. Relentless optimisim that you're right.

They buy cheap. A lot of what is cheap is from abroad. Also, cheap domestically produced goods use foreign materials or parts. If the steel price goes up, everything from the steel goes up too. The tariffs are supposed to offset tax breaks for rich people. In their current form, they are basically tax on consumers.

Mexico has old tariffs in place, they did not got an out. They do not have new tariffs put on them on top of previous tariffs. Even domestic foods can go up when fertilizers used to grow them are more expensive. Or when transportation is more expensive.

China did not just "eat the tariff". First, tariff is paid by domestic consumer, foreign company is not paying that. Second, China announced retaliatory tariffs.

It's not so much for a Hilton-like feeling. In most cases, it's because I'm looking for a predictable place to stay with, often, a 24 hour desk.

So in other words,

> Non-citizens in Germany have no free speech rights period. You get banned and deported even for making lectures about unfavorable topics, as it seems.

and neither do citizens, who get fined and imprisoned instead of banned and deported.

Some restrictions on speech are reasonable, including the ones Germany claims to have, but not the ones it actually has.
Why is that surprising? Some people have more anxiety talking in person compared to being able to spend time crafting exactly what they want to say, some people might not live with other people or have any strong reason to go out to where other people are frequently...it seems like there could be so many potential reasons for this that aren't that weird, and I'm someone who's the opposite and probably averages twice that many words per minute when talking with anyone (due to a lifelong habit of talking much faster than I probably need to and often finding it easier to think though things out loud, which could be related to the first thing).

100's of Klines of code in continuous development over the last 10 years, still currently maintained and continually adapted for new use cases in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) for logical and physical chip design and verification.

Of course it's possible to create "write-only" code in tcl. But tcl is hardly unique in that respect. Good code design and coding practices help to avoid most issues just as in many other languages.

"Everything is a string" (EIAS) is not what leads to a complete mess; it's failing to go beyond an initial, superficial understanding of the syntax and language capability and general lack of discipline that lead to un-fixable messes.

This is a easy one.

Both ios and android does the same thing -- the filesystem is always encrypted, factory reset discards the decryption key.

Microsoft is now 50 years old
It's sad the direction they've ended up going. Microsoft were always a rapacious company bent on market dominance, but at least they used to be focused partially on trying to achieve that by creating very user focused software; which included large amounts of user testing and tuning every shortcut and icon for the best experience for the most users. Now they just seem to be intent on forcing user login, ads, and ai on users whether they want it or not, and generally degrading the whole user experience with no care.

This is basic Mathematics from introductory Differential Calculus. Refresh your memory from any Calculus book; if you don't know Calculus at all read Calculus: Basic Concepts for High Schools by Tarasov which you can get here - https://mirtitles.org/2018/09/04/calculus-basic-concepts-for...

Your picture is simple enough; but you have mixed up dq (this is the dependent function on the Y-axis) and dt (this is the independent variable on the X-axis) infinitesimals. Their ratio is simply the instantaneous rate of change of electric charge w.r.t. time which is what is the instantaneous electric current. As to the cross-sectional area of a wire varying over its length and how it affects current through it, you can neglect it for short wires and using a specific wire gauge for all normal electronics.

> There needs to be an even more grounded book in electronics, something that you can show to a guy who literally has no idea about electronics in the slightest bit and by the end of the book, the guy is a master at it

Electronics = Physics+Mathematics+Logical Thinking and there can be no shortcuts to its study. You have to put in some effort to study the subject. However things have been simplified and modularized to such a great extent nowadays that you can learn and do a great deal without understanding much of the mathematics and physics involved. The submitted book link in this post is a good basic one to start from.
