I have several IoT devices around my home and want to push different code or configs out to them. Sure, something like Chef could work... But I'd have to install a client on each device when all I really want to do is script SSH sessio

Looks interesting. I'm going to give it a spin on some RPi3s I have hanging around and see how it compares to having used fabric. One thing: the link "learnshutit.html" at the top of this page is a 404.

The point I was trying to make is that the text in a programming language like Python is like a visual diagram of standard control flow mechanisms. I can see the for loop, what it iterates, and what the body of the iterator is. The language

Ah, I see. But other than WYSIWYG editing I'm having trouble imagining how a language could be general purpose and could still be visually representative of the output of the program rather than the behavior of the program (much li

There are hybrid languages, like Python... Visual whitespace denotes blocks while visual symbols like "if", "for", and "def" denote the meaning of those blocks. (and sane programmers use visual layout to convey

I think the point they were making was that since we know of weaknesses in certain situations we should avoid using it even in the safe situations so that we can eventually drop it from crypto libraries all together. There are alternatives

What features make it "higher level"? It looks like syntactic sugar on C code without any real improvements (aside from GC).

The performance of JS these days, for such a dynamic language, is actually very impressive. If Java were our only option I assure you we'd have come up with all kinds of crazy alternative systems of doing things. Plus, targeting the JV

Weird. I remember hating it ages ago. So much so that I was developing a Python->JavaScript transpiler (before all the cool kids were writing transpilers!) and blogging about how bad it was [1]. Granted, that was back in 2008 and most of

Agreed. But I've felt that way about minified JS for a long time too. I'm not sure there's a way around it.

Uber cars aren't technically owned by a business like a hotel is though. If you stay the night at my house, there's a DVR system in some of the rooms. Deal with it. Edit: Also, you probably are being filmed elsewhere in any major

Yep, currently it only looks at port 80 but it would be a trivial change to check others. So it's great for finding web interfaces for DVR systems, printers, routers, obscure websites, etc. And it's good for collecting a random sa

Right now it's scanning random IPv4 addresses, everything accessible. Though it may be a good idea to add some sort of whitelist or blacklist rules. I've mainly been using it for sampling and exploration purposes. Like a bite-size
