So, I decided to create another one. Another blog that is. Figured it’d be good to separate different hats on different platforms. The idea behind this one is my journey while I learn different programming languages and concepts. I’ve done some of it to solve problems for CTFs in my other blog n3s0 || info. Though, I thought maybe it’d be best to make that into it’s own little niche. There are some CTFs I’ve played on there along with some sysadmin stuff. I may program to solve problems on it. But, those are generally small scripts. They don’t solve problems long term. It’s where I will house a lot of my “Hacking”, Administration, Blue Teaming, etc.
The name will probably be changed to something that keeps it in its niche. But, I haven’t quite figured that out yet. Doing one thing at a time right now.
The other site will be useful for complimenting this one. It’s where I work out how to deploy applications and the like. If there’s something that could benefit an article on it. I’ll provide a link.
This site will house me working through programming concepts. Stuff like different languages, basic programming concepts, software security, things that I find interesting about the behavior of certain languages, and more. I’m sure I’ll find stuff to write about.
Another reason for this is to showcase my projects. If I’m proud of something I’ve written to solve a problem in my life or begin collaborating on a project with someone. I’ll add it to the projects link. Which will be a list of projects I’ve worked on or contributed to. I will make sure the source code is readily available on Github or GitLab before I add the application to the list.
Biggest part of this is for my own general amusement. I enjoy writing software. Always have. I enjoy writing down my thoughts, also. Keeps my head clear and provides future reference. There will be some fact and some opinion. If the facts aren’t up to par, you’re more than welcome to provide input. You may email me or submit an issue in the repository if it’s referencing the code I’m writing about. You’re also more than welcome to discuss typos too. I do love me a good proof read.
This site was built using Jekyll. Which I honestly didn’t think of myself doing. I tried it for a little while in the past but then moved over to Hugo because it was just easier. Jekyll isn’t hard, per se. But, you know. I’m lazy. Who doesn’t like a one liner command that will create a new page or post for you. But, learning how Jekyll works and how to deploy it is beneficial.
The Jekyll theme I’m using is named minimal-mistakes. That is the Github link. I certainly enjoy the layout and the overall feel. One project might be porting the theme over to Hugo so that community can use it. But, I fear I’m a long ways away before I start porting the theme to a different platform. Figured I’d deploy it as a Jekyll application as a reminder. Nothing against Jekyll. I just enjoy using one tool to do the job. Jekyll is an awesome framework for static site building. I’ll probably be releasing my notes for installing Jekyll on my laptop to n3s0 || info at some point.
Please note that the two blogs will be complimenting each other. Though they don’t look the same. References will be made that will take you to the other one. Not sure why I’m reexplaining this. But, there you go.
Without further ado. I hope you enjoy the content that is to come. Thank you.
