Hello /cyber/!

I come to you today in search of guidance.

There's plenty of INFORMATION on the web about:

* How to program.

* How to configure your router.

* How x protocol works.

And while that's cool 'n all,that's just INFORMATION, fragments info,that you read in x forum or wiki and forget in 3-5 hours.

I propose,we try to LOCATE and ORGANIZE technical books,courses,and instructional videos, in order to facilitate the study of computers and their inner workings.

>why?

what's the point of looking /cyber/ if you don't have the know-how a citizen of the web should have.

>How will it be organized?

i was thinking about using a binary tree.

So can any one recommend,books,pod casts or other material that could be used for self study?

i made a similar thread on lain-chan,and they pointed me to Computer Networks' by Andrew S. Tannenbaum, as a introductory book about computer networks,their technologies,organizations & protocols.

The idea is to make a single thread,asking about content for a specific theme(applied math,networking theory,etc) ONE THEME AT A TIME.Get the entries make a list and post it.Then move to a different subject,we would refine the list over time.

So.. right now we need to decide what THEMES we will need to look at.I Recommend:

History of Computation,History of programing,Applied math,"programing theory"(what's a class?,Programming paradigm?),networking theory,Something about the operational systems we have today.

Any one would recommend additions or changes?

I support this 100%

One of the problems of trying to educate yourself on computers is that the term "computers" is such a broad topic that it's seemingly impossible to have a manageable set of areas you need to study and knowing where to start in studying each of these areas. All the information on the net isn't going to be useful to you if you don't know how to connect it together.

The /g/entoomen's library would be a great place to start as far as just getting raw information resources is concerned, but its domain is currently expired so unless someone else knows of another place to download it, that's off the table for now.

a few of us shazbots have started taking notes for a similar project

https://pad.riseup.net/p/cyberguide

you can also poke around torrent sites for various 'anarchist libraries/collections', 'programming megapack', 'actually useful programming', '/k/ommando' and similar permutations to find basically the raw data/reading list of what you are looking for. Then you have to come up with a syllabus and lectures to augment that.

The issue being that what most of us are looking for is the stuff we don't know, thus we are not all that qualified to make that list. We can contribute what we do know, but it's not like the lot of us are education majors who know how to teach what we know. Not really the same set of skills. It would be good to have more grey beards around as they tend to figure out what has been important skills wise over time, but with the rate of change no one really know what specific knowledge will be the most useful 6 months from now. Yet alone EoL.

This is tptacek's amazon book list http://www.amazon.com/lm/R2EN4JTQOCHNBA

He used to run Matasano Corp. It is a security corp that audits software and crypto engineering. He now runs starfighters.io which soon will be a 'game' you play to prove you know how to code such things as binary trees.

Of that book list, the C programming books are excellent, especially the network programming books where you break out libpcap and do raw frames.

There's also the motherload of reverse engineering information contained in this: http://beginners.re/

So you may want to take any commercial router and then reverse it's shitty drivers/firmware and rewrite the entire thing in OpenBSD.

In order to 'learn', I'd recommend first the free online Python book by Zeb Shaw http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ then do GreyHat and Blackhat python so you learn how to make your own testing tools.

Then head on over to edx and take Harvard Intro to CompSci CS50, which teaches you C https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-computer-science-harvardx-cs50x

After that, read and do SICP. But, do it in emacs. There's a texinfo for SICP so you can read it like a manpage. I have one screen in Emacs open with SICP and the other screen is connected to the Racket/Scheme lang interpreter as described here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7596785

That guy uses vim keys, I just use regular emacs keys but I did use his config + prelude.

After you're done SICP, C books, C course at Harvard, congrats you're a computer scientist. Now can just look at the protocol docs at IETF and figure out anything you want.

some torrents can't be opened with certain clients.

the gentooman library is also on retroshare but it's so famous you can find it anywhere.

get qbittorrent and search the DHT, it's pretty much the best way to find content if you're not afraid of the contentmafia.

people said they found some exploits in some documents but i don't think any current linux distro is affected by these and no sane pdf/document viewer executes scripts anyway which is what most exploits use.

>found exploits in some documents

What type of exploits?

Also i'm a pleb and I use windows on my main PC. So I should probably stay away from this shouldn't I?

I'm really just looking for good tutorials for active directory, scripting, and powershell.


 No.24467

>>24461

>What type of exploits?

idk, someone made a thread or post about it. no idea if all copies of the library are affected or just some.

just scan it with an antivirus, all malware older than a few weeks should be recognized.

>I use windows

no problem, just make sure all your software and drivers is up to date.

secunia psi checks this for you because no human being could perform such a feat.

secunia is still shit but if you're not using it you can just kill your windows right now.

also check your pdf viewer's and libreoffice's settings to make sure all scripts are disabled and it doesn't load images over the internet, etc.

this only leaves the risk of man in the middle attacks but if you're not using wifi and not downloading data through internet cables that go through the UK you should be probably fine.

GPG verify your software by hand to be sure.

or you could stop using a masochism OS that takes care of all this for you.

Lesson request:

I'd like to know how to program in c# but visual textbooks are so boring. I don't know of online resources to learn it. Can someone help me? It'd be great if it covered all the shit like "int" and that shit, I have no idea what that means. And why it works. Why does my computer know "int == x" mean "do this shit, bitch" when we're talking about numbers. Would greatly appreciate it.
