Ask HN: How much are broken wings of a netadmin that cannot write code?
Hello HN,
in a net security environment, what's the best programming language you suggest to learn? I can only script in bash, since on my job I did never need any other language, but lately I feel half useless. I mainly parse logfiles and administer security devices (CISCO, linux servers).
