@lofty marsh so im giving you an example, I'm doing the Buffer overflow module now and just before starting it, I did all this research to make sure I can take the best of it:
https://panicthreads.gitbook.io/d0cs/linux-exploitation/linux-privilege-escalation/buffer-overflow-linux

So i can fix my previous research with an official curated content like the academy, in case i miss something or I miss understood something, the worst that can happen then is that I overkill the module

If AI scares you at all, then back or front won't make a difference

#

It's not going anywhere, and will be embraced more and more

#

It's how it's used and critiqued that matters

#

That being said, there's no replacement for actual humans imho

lofty marsh

Alright that's a relief lmao

AI can definitely make a frontend faster than I can these days mind

I said it's tiring

eternal mango
#

Some learn better through structured education, and part of that structured education is delivering what is asked, based upon what is taught. Everyone starts somewhere, and I don't think it's fair to judge someone purely based upon what they shared.

frozen zinc
#

is very important actually whatever you do you need to be happy doing it

eternal mango
#

It's a class project, and see it as such

#

You want to see their passion, wait until they get out and start building

otherwise you are creating a big problem in the future

Neither way is right or wrong

How hard is GO?

eternal mango
#

It's pretty approachable in my limited experience. Some things to get used to, forced exception handling and type strictness (which are both good things), really nice multithreading api, cross platform compile without headaches (but of course results in large binaries due to noe being stripped and as such not using shared libs). Certainly worse languages out there to start with

#

Only done a little with go, so likely I've not even scratched the surface there, but that's what stood out to me.

lofty marsh

What programming languages do you know?

eternal mango
# lofty marsh What programming languages do you know?

I've worked with quite a few, and can adapt pretty quickly from one to another... don't think I truly fully know any language, but can adapt purely on experience across multiple languages over the years. They're all the same, just different..

#

...apart from Ruby on Rails

#

That can burn in hell

(I still need to give that another shot, to purge that demon)

Is there another staff member that might be best to reach out to?

lofty marsh

When I leave one programming language I have to redo it again because I forget it haha

eternal mango
#

I don't think there's much we can do there, but you could reach out to support.

#

There's no specific staff member that would be best placed, as this isn't something frequently handled, if ever

#

So it'd be best to go through support

For example if you ask me anything about javascript I only know how to tell you console.log..

#

I'll need at least 1 week of studying to regain the memory and typing

eternal mango
#

Programming is structure and patterns, programming languages are just different sets of dictionaries

lofty marsh
#

1 week because Im a perfectionist too 😂

eternal mango
#

Learn the structure, read the dictionary, adapt to another language easily

#

But honestly I never know one langauge fully, and there's nothing wrong with referring to docs etc to figure something out.

lofty marsh
#

There are millions of libraries

#

You cant know a language 100%

eternal mango
#

I mean libraries are not the language

frozen zinc
# lofty marsh Oh that's a thing?

I have done only one project professionally, the company hired my as back office but they had no IT department... so you know was my time to shine, I had an idea for an app and they liked so my job become 90% time coding.... I left the company for reasons and now we are in conversations about finishing the app as freelance (they ask me for it) and im quoting then 5000 euros (which is nothing) the app is build with dart (flutter) I never touched Dart before in my entire life.... But i choose it bcs I consider it was the best option for the project

eternal mango
#

I'd hazard to say there are some people out there that know their language FULLY

#

..like those gnarled Perl wizards

and to read docs

Hey guys wordpress quesiton. If we have admin access and can modify a theme to put a php reverse shell in the file 404.php for example, to be able to run it do we need direcorty traversal as a regular user to acces <url>/wp-content/themes/... ?

# scenic maple with admin access you can run for sure

With admin access I know I can putt the reverse shell that yes, but in the worst scenario, the admin change password, I don't have access to the account anymore, but the reverse shell is stil there, if I'm a regular user and visit <url>/wp-content/themes/<theme name>/404.php will the reverse shell work if directory listing disbaled? Because I saw that default permissions are set to 755 (so regular user can do directory listing) but what if we change to 644? AI told me that the 404.php, don't need the exec permission because the os execute PHP interpreter which is a binary that already has execute permissions. Is it true? Sorry for that big message ^^
