Small and medium-sized businesses are going to increasingly get hit with #cybercrime in 2020 while all companies that do not adopt a "younger" tech footprint will struggle. Good thing #crowdsourcing #tech services and solutions are also on the rise. inc.com/christina-desmarais/…

Proponents of #zsh are usually inexperienced and uninformed. Here's one crazy list of reasons that's bad, wrong, and dangerous. Do not use it. Install #Bash 4+ instead and research why there really is no decision between the two. #100daysofcode #linux #codenewbies #infosec

Working remotely is the model of most future work -- especially in technology. Many tech veterans have already worked from home for more than a decade. Are you prepared? xitter.cf/sytses/status/12143172… #codenewbies #100daysofcode #codinglife

Here's more reason you should never use #Google for anything. Use #lynx, @Brave, @ProtonMail, and @DuckDuckGo instead. For YouTube, just don't use Gmail. medium.com/@rossformaine/i-w… #GoogleIsEvil #DontBeEvil #Privacy #DataRights #DataScience #DataIsNewOil #edtech #infosec

Hey #shell users consider using functions in your rc file instead of commands. No subshell required and you can affect your running session. Don't forget -f. #100daysofcode #infosec #secops #kali #tips #CodeNewbie #unix #ksh #zsh #cli #linux #bash

Learning a PEG parser -- specifically #Packrat -- should be mandatory learning for all senior software engineers. World's IT challenges continually demand grammars and domain-specific languages. #PEG addresses this need. youtu.be/QppWTvh7_sI #100daysofcode #parsing #python

A challenge for the new decade: What language are these functions written in? What version of the language is required? What do they do, specifically? #100daysofcode #linux #github #gitlab #golang #bash #shell #curl #rest #apis #tips #tools #coding #CodeNewbie #cli
