If programming languages were weapons

C is a sniper - good if you know how to use it but get one pointer wrong and you shoot your allies

C++ is a set of nunchuks, powerful and impressive when wielded but takes many years of pain to master and often you probably wish you were using something else.

Perl is a molotov cocktail, it was probably useful once, but few people use it now.

Java is a belt fed 240G automatic weapon where sometimes the belt has rounds, sometimes it doesn’t, and when it doesn’t during firing you get an NullPointerException, the gun explodes and you die.

Scala is a variant of the 240G Java, except the training manual is written in an incomprehensible dialect which many suspect is just gibberish.

JavaScript is a sword without a hilt.

Go is the custom made “if err != nil” starter pistol and after each shot you must check to make sure it actually shot. Also it shoots tabs instead of blanks.

Rust is a 3d printed gun. It may work some day.

bash is a cursed hammer, when wielded everything looks like a nail, especially your thumb.

Python is the “v2/v3” double barrel shotgun, only one barrel will shoot at a time, and you never end up shooting the recommended one. Also I probably should have used a line tool to draw that.

Ruby is a ruby encrusted sword, it is usually only used because of how shiny it is.

PHP is a hose, you usually plug one end into a car exhaust, and the other you stick in through a window and then you sit in the car and turn the engine on.

Mathematica is a low earth orbit projectile cannon, it could probably do amazing things if only anyone could actually afford one.

C# is a powerful laser rifle strapped to a donkey, when taken off the donkey the laser doesn’t seem to work as well.

Prolog is an AI weapon, you tell it what to do, which it does but then it also builds some terminators to go back in time and kill your mom.

Lisp is a shiv which comes in many forms. Anyone who uses this is probably crazy and dangerous.

IoT’s Biggest Challenges : Privacy and Security

E verything today from your mobile to refrigerators to cars are interconnected, which made our life easier. This device collectively called IoT. But they have also created new vulnerabilities for hackers. IoT devices are poised to pervasive in our lives than mobile phones and they have access to sensitive personal data may be your credit card number, banking information and many more. As number of IoT devices constantly increase, security risk also increases.

Internet of Threats!

T he Internet of Things (IoT) is continuing to gain traction with an ever-increasing number of connected devices coming to market. But as tech-savvy consumers begin investing in their first devices for a connected home, what is to stop them becoming a cyber attacker's next target? While still uncommon, we know that cyber attackers are going after connected consumer devices, demonstrated on a massive scale by the group of Russian hackers who published thousands of live-streaming webcam footage from over 250 countries. Unless the manufacturers of connected devices take a holistic approach to bolstering their cyber security efforts, these types of attacks will increase in number. To gain a greater understanding of the cyber security risks that consumers could be exposing themselves to, research was conducted into the cyber security posture of six ‘always-on’ consumer IoT devices. The results were unsettling. Veracode carried out a set of uniform tests across all the...
