FLAVORS OF LINUX LINUX:    Linux is  a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel. An operating system was first developed and released by Linus Torvalds on September 17, 1991. Linux is typically packaged in a linux distribution. First get into the topic, we must know the categories of linux. This might help us in exploring more things in linux. The basic categories of linux distributions are Security focused User focused. We might think about how it would be possible to have more distributions in linux. The answer is very simple. LINUX IS FREELY REDISTRIBUTABLE. Anyone can create any distribution based on their preferences. FLAVORS OF LINUX: Debian:   Debian also known as Debian GNU/Linux is one of the Linux distributions. It is free and open source software. It was established by Ian Murdock on August 16, 1993.  It has access to online repositories that contain over 51,000 packages.

  For most of our history, human technology consisted of our  brains, fire, and sharp sticks  while fire and sharp sticks became power plants and nuclear weapons. The biggest upgrade has happened to our brains. Since the 1960s the power of our brain machines has kept growing exponentially allowing computers to get smaller and more powerful at the same time. But this process is about to meet its physical limits.   Computer parts are approaching the size of an atom.  To understand why this is a problem, we have to clear up some basics. A comput e r is made up of very simple components doing some simple things like representing data, the means of processing it, and controlling the mechanisms. Computer chips contain  modules, logic gates, and transistors . A transistor is the simplest form of a data processor in computers, basically, a switch that can either block or open the way for information coming through. This information is made up of bits that can be ei...

INTRODUCTION TO KSS:                       KSS is the abbreviated form of Knyle Style Sheet. It can be simply described as CSS documentation. Documentation for any flavor of CSS that you’ll love to write. It is in the form of human readable, machine parsable and easy to remember. KSS is a documentation specification and styleguide format. It is not a preprocessor, CSS framework, naming convention, or specificity guideline.It is hierarchical in nature. Why KSS? If we have added a new member to the medieval of our project, he/she would have coped up to our styles. He/she can’t start anything from scratch. This may increase the time to develop our project. Suppose, we have already documented our CSS, a new member can just refer to the styles and start doing their works. This will increase the efficiency of our project.  If you’ve ever been a new developer on a team with weak documentation, you know how confusing it can b...

  PROS AND CONS OF TAILWIND CSS: Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building custom user interfaces. I like to think of it as a cool way to write inline styling and achieve an awesome interface without writing a single line of your own CSS. In short terms, the main benefit of Tailwind is that it relieves you from having to write loads of CSS, and you can instead use Tailwind directly in your HTML. PROS: It makes the styling process much faster: It makes our work easier because as a developer, we don't need to switch between the css and html. We can simply do our styling in the html itself. It provides convenience: That is by using css, developers face a lot of problems. This can be avoided by simply using the tailwind css classes. It provides security:  People can safely use it in production. It is highly customizable: Since it is open source and free use, we can easily customize according to our needs.  It can be optimized using purgeCSS: We can...

Touch screens may be popular both in science fiction and real life as the symbol of next-gen technology, but an innovation called Skinput suggests the true interface of the future might be us “Skinput” turns body into touch screen interface. The founders of this great technology  is Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University. By the way, what do skinput technology mean?....           Skinput is a technology that appropriates human body for acoustic transmission, enabling the skin to be utilized as an input surface.           This technology allows human hand and arm as touch screens, by sensing various low-frequency vibrations and sounds that are generated by touching different part of the hand or arm.           These signals are sensed using various sensors worn on the arm in the form of arm band. "The arm band is a crude prototype, the next generation could be made considerably smaller – likely easi...

NEW FEATURES OF BOOTSTRAP v5.0 What is Bootstrap? Bootstrap is originally a blend of CSS and JavaScript code that you can use to create dynamic websites. It is an efficient tool for front-end design that consists of HTML and CSS design templates.

As JS based languages are at their peak these days, jQuery has lost its popularity. And moreover Developers are using virtual DOM, instead of DOM directly. Enhanced JavaScript: While Bootstrap drops support for jQuery, Bootstrap5 creators show much interest in enhancing the Ja...

A computer hacker is the name given to the tech- folks on both sides of the internet battlefront. Bad guys or “black hat” hackers are the ones trying to break into computer systems, steal data, and install harmful software. The “white hat” hackers are cyber security heroes that develop ways to catch bad guys and stop malicious programs from doing damage. That’s interesting nomenclature, right? The world of cyber security helps us to understand the dangers and how to protect ourselves from black hats of the world. Lets learn the proper   definition of cyber security. Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting critical systems and sensitive information from digital attacks. Also known as information technology (IT) security, cybersecurity measures are designed to combat threats against networked systems and applications, whether those threats originate from inside or outside of an organization.     FACTORS AFFECTING CYBER SECURITY: ·      ...
