Good point. I think finding a mentor will need to happen organically (if it does at all). I'm glad that there are even a few people right here who actively mentor other people and find it meaningful - I think I would, too (which means I'll be being selfish again on the opposite side of it...)
Did it change how you feel about interacting with people in general?
This is the first time I've heard of "rejection therapy". It interests me but maybe it approaches the problem in a destructive/negative way (that is, keep doing something uncomfortable until it isn't)? I've learned to deal with rejection by reminding myself that people have their own problems and embarrassing histories; they aren't really that different from me. Thinking about it in a humanistic way like that, instead of a negative/destructive way, lets me get over things immediately.
Who makes the decision about data retention in these cases? Do they plan with breaches in mind? Can anyone who works in that position shed some light on this?
Last spring I received a notice in the mail from a university I had been accepted to four years ago, but did not attend, that my personal information was exposed in a data breach just like this one. The free year of credit monitoring isn't comforting. Why on earth is sensitive information like that kept? The likelihood of people being affected just goes up.
Would you recommend those books to someone who is just familiar with the Linux command line and knows the basics of C? I want to start understanding the system I use everyday, in depth, but am not sure where to start.
I bought "Beginning Linux Programming" and I think it's a great book for beginner and intermediate C programmers looking to get a deeper knowledge of Linux. A bit basic if you've been working with C for some time tho.
After buying it I found The Linux Programming Interface... and I certainly regretted having bought the former rather than the later. But for beginners I recommend the first.
It never occurred to me how perfect programming languages are for poetry. You have all these extra characters and whitespace to change how a piece of text feels or reads, and it becomes a visual experience too, like looking at art. Are there other program-poems people should look at?
The only thing I'd seen like this before was "Sunrise, Sunset" written in PHP. I know these things aren't new for many of you but I keep being surprised by the creativity I find.
I'm looking at the 'Puma' section in Jesse Storimer's book "Working With TCP Sockets" and that seems to be the general idea behind it... uses a thread pool for concurrency, monitors persistent connections with an evented reactor.
I'm not affiliated with the author, but this was such a nice book to get an intro to webservers and their architectures/tradeoffs from.
