Learn to be a hacker: from newbie to ...??

in #hacking7 years ago

So I am learning how to be a "hacker."

My background is basic software courses in engineering school, and feet-to-the-fire learning of industrial software at the school of hard knocks.

Now I have a few avenues of instruction, but specifically at the moment I am reading "Hacking - The Art of Exploitation" by Jon Erickson.

Well, my first question with regard to this blog and hacking is: how to search for multiple tags in Steemit? I can search for "hacking" at https://steemit.com/trending/hacking but there is a LOT of stuff there.

Can one search Steemit for multiple tags - say, "hacking" and "tutorial"?

Sort:  

Google can be a really powerful tool. If you do a google search in this format "steemit" hacking tutorial you should end up receiving mainly hits from the steemit domain with the words hacking tutorial somwhere in the post. It works for any domain. Click verbatim under tools.

Well thank you very much. I ran the Google search as you suggested and it produced good results.

For the record, I ran numerous searches on Google including various combinations of "multiple" "tags" "site:steemit.com" etc and bombed out. So I got myself hung up on the idea of multiple tags and it seems Steemit doesn't lend itself to that. Anyway, your simple and effective solution was exactly what I needed. Thank you!

Glad I could help. Using that "verbatim" tool helps to weed out all the garbage results. This is the link I should of posted, your post is now the number 2 result. https://www.google.com/search?q=google.com&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#tbs=li:1&q=%22steemit%22+hacking+tutorial
"Hack the planet!"

Hi @the-bitcoin-dood, Wanted to thank you for the early encouragement. I commented below about an abrupt interruption that I had immediately after I posted about diving into my self-learning of hacking.

Good news: I am now back on track, and hacked my first computer! I wrote about it in this @steemit blog post.

OK, so shortly after I wrote the above, I was obliged to inform my lying, cheating boss that I was invoking my "fuck you" money and implementing its eponymous strategy. I liquidated my entire material life, and left the country.

Point being, this process consumed most of my time and I have not worked on my self-education in "hacking."

Since then, I have set myself up on an island and am now ready to work on my training. In the meantime, I stumbled across this training package at https://deals.thehackernews.com/sales/it-hacking-bundle which at $39 I could not turn down: "Ethical Hacking A to Z Bundle - Break Into the Lucrative World of Ethical Hacking with Over 45 Hours of Immersive Content"

Normally, I like to follow the dictum, "show, don't tell." But will make an exception in this case. The training is work that I plan to do in the coming weeks.
