    suricata rules

  • This was a fun distraction to track down...looks like the IP that this site is hosted on is in some IDS rulesets, likely this one, which Ubiquiti uses: https://github.com/vncloudsco/suricata-rules/blob/main/tor.r...

    Looks harmless, but I learned something new today :)

    The Missing Semester of Your CS Education 📚

  • From MJD's post: I think CS curricula should have a class that focuses specifically on these issues, on the matter of how do you actually write software?

    But they never do.

    FWIW, MIT's "The Missing Semester of Your CS Education" attempts to deal with this lack, though, even there, it's an unofficial course taught between terms, during MIT's IAP -- Independent Activities Period[1] -- and not an actual CS course.
