Hello World,  So recently 2 of my friends and I started a little Study Group, one of us is very much interested in getting the Security + certification, and the other 2 are inspired by that human, so the 3 of us decided that we shall study together, and hopefully all 3 of us take the exam and get certified. Its a good cert to have, especially in this field. I actually am not being considered for a position because I don't have this cert, so that is encouraging me to get it. What we have done so far: We met up and tried to watch an instructional video on the subject, but it was very badly made, and the "instructors" were not very good. So we instead decided that we would go the Book route. We all agreed on the same book, by the end of the night, we all had a digital copy via our Kindle/Kindle App. We then set a time line, which means we need to cover 2 chapters per week, to be able to take the exam by September, and this where things get tricky. The 3 of us have very acti...

Hello world,  So today I had a random thought, the existence of a book called "The Screwtape Letters" by C.S. Lewis, sparked an interesting discovery for me. I knew I had heard the name, but I couldn't place what he authored. A quick search and voila, he wrote the "Narinia" series.

Many of the big innovations tend to come in twos, here is what I noticed. Pepsi Cola - Coca-Cola. Both came from rival pharmacists at there time. C.S. Lewis - J.R.R. Tolken Gave us "Chronically of Narnia" & "The Lord or Rings" series respectively. Steve Jobs - Bill Gates Gave us "Apple" & "Windows" respectively. So I started thinking, who would be the "TWO" of today, and it was a no brainer for me. Elon Musk - Jeff Bazos Giving us ...

Hello World, I have recently come across a super awesome programming language called Python, oh dear god, it is awesome. Its free, versatile, and so many projects use it. I've been self-teaching my self via online tutorials and books, the best way is to do it. I first learned about the language when I came across the Raspberry Pi , which is a revolutionary. Its a product or creating an affordable, many ways portable computer. So many amazing things are happening with it, from DIY Weekend projects, to people creating computer labs in 3rd world countries, the possibilities are endless. You can read about so many of the projects on their official   Raspberry Pi Blog , they also have super cool magazine called The MagPi which you can subscribe to receive a physical or a digital version of the monthly magazine, which is also filled so many goodies. Another cool thing is the fact that you can use Python to create things, modify things on the Raspberry Pi. Finding out about...
