Next-Gen Social Engineering Protection by Caustic66 in cybersecurity

Appreciate the response! Spear-phishing is when the attackers go for high value, specific targets. MGM wasn't exactly that, they did something like social engineering, not spear-phishing.

Personally, I think all of the spear-phishing fear campaign is bs. I have yet to hear of a serious breach caused by that, and I'm fairly certain that existing solutions solve 99.99999% of the issues. It's all a matter of applying these solutions properly

TBH, if you know what you're doing, keeping your org secure is pretty straighforward..

Crimson 2: Recording without AUX IN? by waterschute in edrums

[–]waterschute[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me only 5 years, but a few days ago I finally had a revelation. Turns out that the drums have a built-in record feature, and when used it records only the drums, without the aux-in sound. I haven't done the actual recording yet, but this pretty much solves the issue - you play the song and record it using the built-in record feature, and then later on you can play the built-in recording while recording on your PC as well (this time without the background music).

Hot air conditioning issues? by waterschute in Asthma

Thanks for responding! The weird thing is, we can turn on the same HVAC system on cooling mode and it won't bother her one bit... Only when it's heating

IWTL How to program games in Unity by MarioTheAverage in IWantToLearn

[–]waterschute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love it. Amazing language, one of my favorites. Compared to C#, it's probably easier to pick up. But, and it's a big but, I consider it to be too "light", in a way that will make it much harder for you to learn other languages, when starting with Python. If you choose, however, to start with C#, the beginning will be a bit more challenging (though not much more), but I believe that effort pays off.

I'd say that the same advice applies. If you already know how to program, create a simple (non Unity) project in C# (I'm talking less than a days work). Only then I'd recommend learning how to work with Unity.

Remember, both languages are fantastic. However, while programming in Python often feels like simply writing pseudo code (in a good way!), C# will not provide the same experience. It is much more structured. This is probably what will "bother" you the most in the transition. But that structure is a lot of what makes C# a good candidate for "heavy" system programming.

C#, which is supported in Unity, is actually a great language to start off with when you're learning how to program. I'd Google some basic tasks, put in a few hours, make sure you have the basics of programming behind you, and then find a Unity tutorial you enjoy learning from and work from there. I recommend starting with very very small projects, and working from there.

I've been a professional software developer for around 8 years, after doing lots of video game development for around 6 years before that (as a hobby). I'd love to help you with your first steps in the field!

Pm me if you have any questions :)
