JavaScript, Thoughts

After a lot of time, I managed to listen and do the final project on one of (in my opinion) the best JavaScript courses on the platform. This is the course “” by Jonas Schmedtmann (I hope I translated his name well). I might not have written about the certificate itself and this particular lecturer, but my enthusiasm for his approach to the course, how it was designed, what it encompasses, as well as the way he explains, certainly influenced the decision to write this text. The very fact that the course contains less than 70 hours of video material speaks of its substantiality.

Linux

ArchLinux as a distro gives quite a lot of freedom to the end user to configure the entire system. Starting with the installation that is done from the console (there are TUI and GUI variants, but I’m talking about the basic one), through the post-installation procedure, the user has to adjust everything himself in order to have a functional system, working environment, etc. In this text, I will mention one item, and that is improving the performance of classic hard drivesI will have to quote and publish one by one, because one text cannot cover everything.

Some time ago, I started to discover a new area in programming and electronics, it’s about the Internet of Things, a little more precisely about microprocessors and microcontrollers. As I announced in the first text on the blog one of my target areas is Arduino and it’s time for the first post! This text is different from the others, this time in addition to the text, video material for the first project is included, something like “Hello world!” – flashing LED. I follow trends a bit, or at least try, but I definitely enjoy doing this!

Attempted Fraud or Missed Opportunity?

A few months ago, I had an interesting correspondence with a person via Linkedin, where the person in question “processed” me in order to agree to online cooperation. The proposal was like this: Permission to use my computer remotely, with an assigned IP address, then to allow access to accounts on LinkedIn and Upwork. For my “torment”, I would have a 10% share in what my associate (hereinafter I will call him Gliša) is doing through the Internet. It was freelancing as a developer. I can’t help but wonder, as the title of the text says, is this an attempt at fraud, or a missed business opportunity?

I come back with the story again, and this time I go to the dark side … a little. Why the dark side, you ask? Part of my job is to use Windows OS and I can’t escape that. So I consider Windows the dark side because I know there is something better and of course I use that something every day. The other side of the dark side story is about computer ethics, but I had no other way out of the situation. I had to use Linux and the chntpw tool to allow myself access to one of the user accounts on one of computers at work.

The migration from the old to the new computer took me a long time, but it also enabled me to write this text – how to manually install ArchLinux. I need a reminder when an accident happens, and it can help someone. When you read “50” steps, it may scare someone, but if you know how to work in the console, there will be no problems. This way of installation can be fun, not to mention that “I am God!” moment and of course bragging in front of a clumsy neighbors that doesn’t even know what Linux is, not to mention the console and all commands you type. They’ll just think you invented the Matrix. This brings with it some bad things, they will ask you to fix their computer. When I say this it means that they will call you for every little thing. The warning is there, the good sides as well, so let me start with the list.

Linux

I continue the story about Linux, in fact about ArchLinux to be more precise. I have already mentioned that it is a distribution for enthusiasts and certainly for those with a little more experience. When I mention experience, it means a good knowledge of console work, directory structure, partitioning, in fact the entire Linux ecosystem. In this text, I will write about a script that makes it easier to install ArchLinux. It’s called Archfi and basicаlly is a TUI installer.

Easy Forgotten Password Reset Guide

For all existing web services that require user profiles, one of the unavoidable functionalities is the reset of the forgotten password. Thus, Chat App – Web Application must also provide this option for users who have forgoten their password. Another reason why this option is needed is definitely security. Somewhere it is recommendation, and somewhere is an obligation to periodically change passwords precisely in order to maintain the level of security of both the account and the application itself, ie in the general sense of the system we use.
