Small overview on the usage of Org-Mode for blogging leveraging all features that Emacs can give, as an interactive and literate code development environment where you have access to bibliographic tools for easy reference and a comfortable editor.

Mine sort is a cryptography based sorting algorithm that can run in \(O(n)\) time if you are lucky. It consists in two stages, the first one is to create a cryptographic seed, and the second one is to check if the seed sorts the array.

Image the following use case, you have an application running which you strictly want to force its traffic to go through the TOR network. In normal case scenarios, you can implement at your network firewall level a restriction to such traffic, a more simplistic approach would be locally to add an iptables rule, but in the container world everything is different.

Machine learning by itself sometimes isn’t the best answer, but it can be combined with specialist agents to expand it’s capabilities and reduce the training time. In the other hand, for simple problems, and specially for linear problems, usually machine learning can be replaced with more simple and precise approaches like linear programming.

Is possible to abuse misconfigurations and bugs and escape from containers in several scenarios, in this post I will explore the most basic one: abusing the docker socket to escape the container and run code as root in the host machine.

This post is dedicated to explore the generation of Bitcoin key pairs using pure python with no external libraries.

Linuxkit is a good tool to create immutable Linux systems, so why don’t use it to build a Monero mining live distro ? The only thing needed to build an Linux with Linuxkit is a yml file containing the system information.

While is perfectly possible to use cron inside a container, I strongly advise you to don’t do it. Some of the most important points on why is a bad practice to run cron inside a container:

After meltdown, spectre and other similar bugs were discoreved and patched the overall performance on Linux decreased. Here a detailed benchmark about the impact of these fixes on Redis performance. Something between 15% and 6% slower than the same machine without the fixes.
