  Strange Computer Languages: A Hacker’s Field Guide Why do we build radios or clocks when you can buy them? Why do we make LEDs blink for no apparent purpose? Why do we try to squeeze one extra frame out of our video cards? We don’t know why, but we do. That might be the same attitude most people would have when learning about esolangs — esoteric programming languages — we don’t know why people create them or use them, but they do. We aren’t talking about mainstream languages that annoy people like Lisp, Forth, or VBA. We aren’t talking about older languages that seem cryptic today like APL or Prolog. We are talking about languages that are made to be… well… strange. We have to start at the beginning. INTERCAL. This was started as a joke in 1972 and the acronym is purportedly for Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym. There was no actual implementation, though, until around 1990. Now there are two: C-INTERCAL and CLC-INTERCAL. Since INTERCAL is a parody, it makes some very o

 Best Tools For  Ethical Hacking 2023

I would recommend to focus on learning about tools used for ethical hacking and information security purposes. Some examples include:

Nmap - a network exploration and management tool that can be used to discover hosts and services on a computer network.

Metasploit - a framework for developing and executing exploit code against a remote target machine.

Wireshark - a network protocol analyzer that can be used to examine network traffic and troubleshoot network-related issues.

Aircrack-ng - a suite of tools for wireless network auditing and cracking.

Nessus - a vulnerability scanner that can be used to identify and assess the vulnerabilities of networked systems.

Burp Suite - a suite of tools for performing web penetration testing.

Maltego - a tool for open-source intelligence and forensics, that allows to identify key relationships between data from various sources.


It's important to note that these tools are used for legal and ethical purposes, such as identifying vulnerabilities in systems and networks, and simulating attacks in order to test the security of a system.
