This is irrelevant. You don't have to show brick every time. We say sugar is sweet. No body experience how sweet is defined by other. Still we all believe it is sweet.

cool. I was looking to build something like this for a while. But never give serious thoughts. I am inspired again now. Along with links/bookmarks, I really want a support for words also. Because many times, it is just easy to save words and later query using google e.g. Radix Sort

tebugst | 8 years ago | on: The Practice is not the Performance: Why project-based learning fails

Absolutely agree with you. Without context and purpose there is no meaning in action. And CS is very broad field. Learning theory without practical is like wondering forest without knowing path. Now if forest is small, it may work but if forest is big then you will definitely lose.

I never understand one point. I am using bunch of paid services and many free services. For paid services, I am paying from first day but in case of free services when they start charging I find alternatives.

tebugst | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: What should I do if I found my self a target for a hacker?

How is he targeting you? Is your system pawned ?

1. First format your system and install any antivirus software ( assuming you on windows ).

2. Reset factory settings on mobile

3. Get new mobile number if it is easy

4. Change password of all accounts.

5. Enable 2 factor authentication whenever possible. This will help you for sure. Keep backup codes somewhere safe(may be flash drive or print them). In case u lose access to your phone/number those will come handy.( Don't delete accounts suddenly. Just Change passwords and enable 2 factor authentication ) So no one can impersonate you easily and you will come to know if anybody has accessed your account.)

6. Don't click on any link in web foolishly. If there is any link just hover your mouse on it, it will show you address in bottom. If address looks suspicious, don't open link.

7. Don't click on any link in your email. When you get any email alway check from what email address it came before clicking on link.

8. Don't log in important accounts on public cafes, library computers etc. Access them from your system only.

9. Also look for hardware keylogger device if you too paranoid

These points are not 100 % full proof. But none the less they will help you for sure. Remember hacking is not magic. You can not be hacked suddenly from nowhere. Always be vigilant.

Agree with you absolutely. Everyone here to make money. If they don't need you or they need you and you don't work, will they give you money ? If you are good at something, never do it for ...

Cloud technologies were also same before. People still keep burning cash on AWS even if they don't get a single customer. Many never understand actual use case of AWS and it's various services.
