Came here to say this. Learning BNF ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backus%E2%80%93Naur_form ) and knowing how to go to the roots have helped me more than once in my career (started as tester, moved to security engine

This is most like the most important thing I haven't read. Aside - this is good stuff, I find myself in this 'mode' all the time. I used to read 100+ books a year, now it is like 5. But, I read all the time ...

pretty bad - hack it together with docs and stack exchange really. I did manage to deploy an app with a django, nginx, gunicorn stack which doesn't crash, so there's that. But as far as good coding skills, I don't really ha

So, everyone needs to take a deep breath here. In kernel VPN is giving me a bit of a security heart attack. As a security professional I would recommend not running this on anything but a sandbox that isn't connected to your environm

I guess it is possible, but I don't have the personal time, to figure out the cost in jet fuel alone for these re-routes, not to mention lost time/productivity for passengers.

The rest of the stack. Spend some time with layers 3&4 and you won't regret it. It was the most boring class I has in school and I use it every day. Read this book: http://goo.gl/ZGifKa (Internetworking with TCP

my guess is the '1-2 days' for you to get your cash is how they are monetizing it. Sure, a poster above got $1 almost instantly, but as volume increases, 1-2 days in some form of investment vehicle will add up.

you don't - you use an directory (LDAP, Active Directory) or AAA service (RADIUS,TACACS+) to manage that. There should never be a shared password. If it is a cloud shared service, same rules apply. You have to know who did what when

You know, and this got me off the Facebook: "If you are not paying for it, you're not the customer; you're the product being sold." I'll wager dollars to doughnuts that all those sites are selling user data to Madison Ave et al.
